Another great BBQ restaurant right beside Hobby Lobby. They also offer ax throwing which is on my bucket list to try one of these days when I'm feeling brave.

One of the nicest restaurants in Bangor. I've only tried their pizza because it's delicious. I want to branch out and try some of their other items.

The Penobscot Theater has awesome, Broadway quality shows at very reasonable prices. We've never seen a show there that we've been disappointed with. It's a fairly small theater so there really isn't a bad seat in the house.

My husband and I have enjoyed the Sports Arena with friends ever since we were in college. They have a bowling alley, a massive arcade, pool tables, and a pizza place.

It's not Vegas but the Hollywood Casino is a fun place to spend the evening. They have live bands that are fun to watch while you lose your money.
