The North Point offers a visually exciting, warm, upscale dining and drinking experience without attitude or pretension. Just delicious, top-quality, beautifully presented cuisine, simple but inventive cocktails, lots of wine by the glass or bottle – all are very affordable, ten taps – all local, and the friendliest staff you’ll ever encounter.
Come check out our large selection of meats & cheeses, small, shareable plates and our soon to be World Famous Signature Stuffed Flatbread Sandwiches. We’re located in the Old Port on Silver Street, across from the Regency Hotel, and right next to the Crooked Mile.
The North Point is our love letter to Portland. Come see for yourself why Portland has been loving us right back, since February 2013!
Food & Drink to Go
CARHOP CURBSIDE PICKUP / DELIVERY
COVID-19 UPDATE
Feel free to order for contactless curbside pick-up, or have your food and drinks brought right to your door – click on any of the orange “ORDER HERE” links for CarHop delivery or for curbside pickup.
We’ve installed a commercial grade (“Beyond by Aerus”) air purifier, we keep our ceiling fans on and kitchen exhaust running at all times to aid in air flow / air replacement.
As of now, masks are optional. Feel free to bring/wear your mask if it makes you feel safer! If not, we simply ask that you not come in if/when feeling sick. Ultimately, we’re all in this together, making choices in life to protect ourselves, our families, and our guests.
RESERVATIONS
We don’t take reservations, but do suggest you call ahead if you’d like to check on availability before arrival. Please note, we cannot hold tables for more than just a few minutes. Also, we may not seat your party until all members have arrived. Obviously, we’re flexible, but please be understanding of our challenges and constraints. It’s a small place and we’re trying really hard to please as many guests as possible!
ONLINE ORDERING / TAKE OUT
Order anytime on CarHop for delivery (surcharge), OR free for pickup during business hours. Please bring ID if you’re picking up cocktails, or have your ID ready if awaiting alcohol delivery. You must order food if ordering adult beverages for pickup/delivery – no exception to this state mandated rule.

Children
We will not allow infants or children (under 12) to accompany our guests. Our apologies in advance to anyone out on the town with the kids in tow, but we are normally “adults only.” We greatly appreciate your cooperation and understanding!
Service Dogs
Your service dog is more than welcome to join you when dining indoors. We understand that he/she will stay quietly by your feet throughout your stay. We know there are no official permits, certificates or fancy vests that can prove the “service” status of your dog. We are very pet friendly, but have to follow the law: Guests accompanied by “pets” (by law, this includes emotional support animals), will not be allowed entry.
If/when the City of Portland again allows us to serve outdoors, the following will apply:
Note that during warmer months, your well-behaved pet dog is more than welcome to join you on our patio, if/when available. We hope he/she will remain relatively calm, not get into a barking match or sniffing session with other dogs, and for safety’s sake, not get in the way of our servers, nor “bother” our other guests.
We have partnered with Full Plates Full Potential to benefit child nutrition programs in Maine. The North Point will donate $1 from the sale of every Pear Martini to FEEDKIDS. Read more about fullplates.org, and our involvement here.
