A bit of history

The sinking of 'The Portland' is just one of the legends found on our award winning menu. The Muddy Rudder Restaurant, Brewer, Maine; A remarkable dining experience.
  Legend has it, that many years ago, the tugboat, PORTLAND slowly wound its way up the Cousins River near Freeport. Its destination was Yarmouth, and its purpose was to provide a place for good food, drink, and hospitality. A harsh nor'easter besieged the boat at its mooring and strong winds grounded and overturned her at our Yarmouth location.

  Although the PORTLAND is gone, its spirit lives on in the historic spot as we continue to provide our guests with great food, drink and, sometimes at low tide, a glimpse of the hearty old tugboat cabin itself. See our Award Winning menu for history of our new location in Brewer, Maine.

  The "Rudder" as the locals call it, has been serving guests since 1976 and has evolved into one of the most popular destinations for FRESH Seafood in Maine.
