My husband and I were flabbergasted the first time we ate at 4 Points BBQ - the food was amazing. BBQ is not usually good in Maine but this place makes ribs and pork that knock your socks off. Well worth a trip - it can be crowded, but service is friendly and the food is so good you'll be... More

My girls and I love bbq. We had heard this was a great place and boy was it a great place. Food was fantastic, we had a variety of things and everything was amazing. The crowd was a mix of everyone. We loved it. The evening we were there was exciting and fun. The staff there were wonderful, very friendly... More

The food is the best reason to visit this joint - and it IS a joint: a small shop in the center of a small town. They feature blies music, but the food is the only reason I go - and often it's for take-out.

at 4Points BBQ & Blues House's inception, they were really good, food portions and prices were reasonable and the place was clean. I became a regular and enjoyed eating there very much. However, after their 1st full year in business, their quality has gone down hill, the portion sizes are smaller and the prices ski rocketed. The consistency of the... More

we had take out from here and the portions were a joke! the '2 meat' meal had about a half a cup of meat in the take out container. and everything was cold. (when we ate in, it was cold, too.) the meats taste good (the only reason i didn't give this a 'poor' rating), but you don't get much.... More

Expanded since last season. Great Food, Great Atmosphere, and National Blues Acts. Who would have thought. Nice Job 4Points for staying opened year round. I can tell you all are sinking everything back into that place. That is a rarity for HWY 1 and 1A in Maine. Food was great again. Hope to catch a National Act next year.

We were desperate to find lunch and stopped here based on others reviews. The staff was friendly, however I find the overall " down homey" and " laid back" euphemisms for kind of greasy dirt down touch anything and wash your hands. My companions ribs were basically bones and nothing more. Wouldn't try the selection of sauces as they did... More

Relaxed, comfortable atmosphere, great food and choices, outdoor seating, nice choice of beers. Glad they had umbrellas over the tables for protection from hot sun.

First let me admit my bias - you'll see I'm a "local customer." I go to 4 points once a month for a nice meal. I'm torn because I want them to do well, but I also want it to be our own hidden gem that doesn't get too crowded (you'll see why later). My latest approach to TA reviews... More
