- JJuliaPortland / Maine •3 reviews4.0Dined on Oct 21, 2026We sat at the bar and had a couple of drinks and food. We ordered the Dublin Prawns, a side of mac 'n cheese, Guinness Meatballs and a side of Cauliflower Gratin. The food was so, very good! Rick (bartender) was fun, attentive and helpful with the wine selection. The "Tidepool" was a tasty drink and one I would get again. Will be back to try other dishes and other drinks soon.More infoRambler Irish Bistro$$$$• Irish• Yarmouth•4.6
