Nice atmosphere, very friendly staff, including the owner talking to us, and great selection of whiskey. Excellent specialty drinks. Definitely a place to go to in the Old Port.

The independent Ice Co. is a warm and friendly atmosphere. Brought about by the bartenders who not only excel with their knowledge of whiskies, but also with a kind and patient demeanor. The list of whiskies is one of the most expansive you’ll see in the city of Portland ranging from common to rare (I won’t go into examples to keep this review shorter).

I was there with a party of 8 last weekend. From the minute we got there, we knew we were going to enjoy the night. From the host, the waiter, to the owner...it was amazing! My friend was celebrating her birthday, and the waiter brought out a dessert, the whole place sang to her...just incredible. it is a warm, welcoming atmosphere...with top notch service. I highly recommend!!!

First time visiting this amazing whiskey bar but certainly won’t be the last! First class operation in every way. Friendly, knowledgeable staff- attentive without being bothersome. Limited Food items but very good. Met Larry, 1 of the owners- nice guy & committed to his establishment. Welcome to Portland🥃

My friend and I stopped in this weekend on a whim. We quickly learned about their $5 prosecco on tap and their delicious charcuterie board and fries. What a great way to spend a relaxing afternoon! The owner Larry stopped by for a chat and was welcoming, knowledgeable, and ensured we were enjoying our fare. Highly recommend if you like a cozy spot to have conversation and some great drinks/foods. Did I mention the prosecco on tap?!
