We invite you to drop by our neighborhood restaurant and pub in Waterville on Main Street. After a long day at work, the Lion's Den Tavern can be just what you need. Rather than having to cook, let us do the cooking for you while you enjoy a drink! We're the perfect spot to enjoy a delicious meal with your family and friends in a laid-back atmosphere.

When the end of the week rolls around join us downstairs for live entertainment and drinks. Every Thursday, Friday and Saturday night we try to have a performer but we recommend checking with our wait staff or visit our Facebook page for upcoming performers. We also offer the downstairs for private parties, luncheons and events Monday through Wednesday from 11am to 10pm and Thursday through Saturday from 11am to 4pm.
Services
A generous portion of house made potato chips dusted with our special blend of seasonings. Topped with crispy smoked bacon, mozzarella, bleu cheese crumbles and fresh basil. Tender calamari fried for a delicate crunch, set on a bed of spring greens and finished with basil chiffonade and lemon. Artichoke hearts, fresh spinach, green onions, roasted red peppers, garlic, spices and parmesan.
Lion's Den Tavern is conveniently location on Main Street in Waterville, Maine. We look forward to seeing you at the bar enjoying a delicious meal and a cold drink, or downstairs listening to great live music! Lion's Den Tavern is an Equal Opportunity Employer and is committed to excellence through diversity.

Two stars is pretty generous, considering I made my dietary needs very clear to the wait staff.
After ordering my "caesar salad without croutons, because I have Celiac disease," they brought me a salad with croutons in it.
I kindly told them I couldn't eat it, and asked for a different one. I was okay with it, and excused the miscommunication.
When I ordered a gluten-free Mac'n'cheese dinner, I figured it would be okay, because the waiter repeated it to me twice, that it was to be gluten-free..
When they presented the "gluten-free Mac'n'cheese" (their words) at the table, the top had SLICES

A wonderful place. First the staff is super friendly and very efficient. Second the food is fantastic. Had the prime rib one night, med rare came out perfect! Portions are excellent. My wife had a seafood special which was also excellent. This place is becoming a regular stop for us and our friends.

Great food and atmosphere. The wait here can be quite long at times depending on when you go. Prices are decent and good potion sizes. Locally owned!

Incredible atmosphere and decorations, even more phenomenal staff. Our server was AWESOME 🤩 I visited with my brother and we drove up about 45 minutes because the menu looked awesome, and it did not disappoint! We got a bunch of appetizers this time because we couldn’t decide. We will be back again!

This was my second time eating there. Had the Bourbon Steak tips this time around. And started the meal with their fried pickle fries and a Citizens Cider. The meal was delicious and service was outstanding.

We went to the Lion's Den for drinks. Some ordered appetizers, others ordered dinner. Everything was very good, and the server was attentive. It's a casual, welcoming atmosphere. There's also an outdoor seating area. The way that it's set up makes it easy to forget that you're in a parking lot. We'll definitely go back.

Dining outdoors and indoors. Service was good, servers knowledgeable. My salad was well prepared with fresh and tasteful ingredients. My partner got a wrap and claimed it was really good. I'd go there again and recommend it.

Oh My LORD THE FOOD!!! This place has been so amazing!! Definitely coming back my next trip up here this summer! I highly recommend the Pulled Pork Mac n Cheese!!
The staff, prices, and atmosphere were just perfect! It seems to be a popular place to visit. Upstairs and downstairs seating.
Our waitress wasn't overbearing but was always around when we needed her.
We are definitely returning this spring and hope to see new people here!
