2 New Maine Restaurants Open in Freeport, Including One in the Former Jameson Tavern

Freeport, Maine, has welcomed two new restaurants to town with King's Head Pub and Sparta's Sips and Subs.

Both locations debuted this August, with King's Head opening in the former Jameson Tavern and Sips and Subs opening in the historic Mallet Building at Freeport Village Station.

Now you've got some new food options after some retail therapy, right?

This would mark the second location for King's Head Pub.

According to Portland Old Port, the first spot debuted in June 2014 in Portland, serving up fantastic food and a variety of beers on tap. It's still thriving today.

As for the new spot? An Instagram post from King's Head Pub revealed its Freeport location opened on August 16, a little less than a year after the historic Jameson Tavern closed its doors.

But which of the delicious meals should you get when you visit the gastropub?

A Facebook post from Visit Freeport highlighted that "the menu includes favorites from their Portland location along with new seafood dishes just for Freeport."

And if you look at the menu, you've definitely got options, including Crispy Chicken sandwiches, pub fare like Guinness Braised King's Roast, and yes, seafood like fried clams, baked Haddock, and lobster.

That's not even mentioning the "extensive draft selection and whiskey offerings," which you can check out on their website.

Then there's Sparta's Sips and Subs, the first of its kind, opening in tandem with its upstairs neighbor and candy store, What the Fudge, on August 15, according to a Facebook post from Visit Freeport.

The Portland Press Herald reported that this sandwich shop is named after and owned by Ken Sparta of Spartan Sea Farms and the Freeport Oyster Bar.

A Visit Freeport Facebook post highlighted sandwiches like a cold cut muffuletta with olive salad and a local smoked pollack instead of tuna from Sparta's Sips and Subs menu.

Sparta told the Portland Press Herald he is most excited about the "outstanding" kelp-based Philly cheesesteak.

You'll also be able to get some beer, wine and canned cocktails with your sandwiches as well.
