    Great drinks, fun atmosphere and yummy fries. Definitely a favorite late night hang out. They have the best fries you'll find anywhere and probably the best burger you'll find in the L/A area. It's a bar why am I not talking about the drinks? Alright, the drinks are great, the specials are awesome. Honestly, I don't have a single bad word to say about this place.

    Unreal. This place is truthfully outstanding. Every bite and every sip was delectable and it was so impressive how quickly everything came out, especially when it didn’t compromise the quality of the food. I had the bourbon reveal and old fashioned- both were perfection. My husband and I then shared the bacon cheeseburger with truffle fries. The truffle fries were the best truffle fries either of us have had. The burger was cooked to perfection and bursting with flavor. We also shared the summer squash and corn quesadilla which we added BBQ chicken too- delicious! Lastly, we had their one dessert which was by far the best ganache either of us have had- topped with the perfect touch of salt. Beyond the food and drinks, the atmosphere was incredible. Friendly staff, unique design, amazing lighting and a killer playlist. Couldn’t recommend this place more.

    Been going to Sonder and Dram since they opened in 2018. Absolutely one of my favorite places in Lewiston and surrounding areas. They have flourished and adapted so much as a small upscale (still casual) bar. Cocktails are some of the best I've ever had. Shout out to the bartender Katrin and all the staff, food is amazing and fresh. Forever will love this place, worth every penny. Love you guys

    Here for a business trip not to far from home. Second time here for a business trip and found this place to be way better than the last time I was here. No need to mention the last place I ended going to at this point. I had originally did a search for "whiskey bar near me" while sitting in my room across the river in Auburn, Maine. Sonder & Dram came up as the third or forth option... So I dived into the website first and said to myself, "Self"! Let's try this place! I like my bourbons and food that pair well without saying anything either. I ended up parking on Canal St. Didn't pay for it but that could be a different story if my company gets a bill, maybe. I started off with a "Bourbon Renewal" and it was good yet a bit on the sweet side. Moved on to an "Old Fashioned " along with my meal, "Pork Carnitas Tacos" Absolutely a great choice! So flavorful and filling! Ended up getting another Old Fashioned and had a quick convo with the bartender, sorry I forgot his name🤔. Asked him his preferred bourbon and what drink he would make with it... Whatever the hell it IS... I'm still here and savoring the flavor! I don't think you can really go wrong here. Small yet simple joint for excellent drinks and easy going food with great portions. You will more than likely be sharing with others! @Sonder &Dram - keep up the great work here! Thank you for a most enjoyable dinner and drinks!

    Eclectic new vibes here with some great comfort food. Drinks were on point.. we loved the brussel sprouts and burger.. upgrade to the truffle fries if you're a fan! Wish I ordered the late night noodz, it looked like everyone else enjoyed them. If we ever come back to the area we will return!

    10/10 great food joint never seen better drink menu love to stop by on Fridays after the free wine tasting on the other side of the block. Great venue area will definetly recommend literally everything on the menu.

    S&D pares a confident menu of instant comfort favorites with a creative but functional cocktail menu. I suggest the Onion Jam Grilled Cheese with a Butter Me Down bourbon based cocktail!

    If you're looking for great food in the area, drive south and go to Flux in Lisbon. Their chef has 100 times the talent. If you're looking for local food and beverages go to The Pub at Baxter Brewing in the Bates Mill Complex in Lewiston. Sonder and Dram is a drag. I recently lost my father, the morning after the Lewiston Shootings. I took a group of friends there - a military veteran, a teacher, and a nurse after burying my father up the road to order some french fries because after treating 30 of my family members to a celebration of life, I myself had not eaten a thing. The bartender made a rash decision and decided not to serve me food or beverages. After asking him where my drinks and food were, I was told I was "cut off." He had mistaken my, yes, very emotional state, for intoxication. Instead of taking care of your community and simply asking what had happened, or, can I just get your fries, the bartender determined his decision-making was righteous above all. Unfortunately, he was wrong. I'll not forgive him and I will not return to Sonder. In fact, I'll be sure to tell this story, over and over again. Bartenders used to be there for you on your worst day. This pretentious establishment should take a look in the mirror at who they hire to represent themselves and their community.
