Our Secret to a Cozy Atmosphere
There’s no denying that the winter chill has arrived a bit earlier than expected in Maine this year, but the cold weather outside helps us appreciate our cozy indoor spaces even more! Here at Elsmere BBQ, the roaring fire of our wood grill keeps us nice and warm, but the real secret to our welcoming atmosphere is the art that adorns the walls of our Portland location. We truly value the opportunity to feature the work of local artists at Elsmere BBQ, and in this season of gratitude, we owe a big thank you to the artists whose artwork has graced our walls this year! You can meet our newest featured artist or learn about becoming a featured artist here

Say Thanks with a Holiday Gathering at Elsmere BBQ
Even though we had to unpack our heavy coats and snow boots a bit before we planned, there’s still so much to be grateful for as we approach the Thanksgiving holiday. Around here, we take the holiday season very seriously; after all, big meals shared by big families are our specialty! Whether your family consists of coworkers, friends, or blood relatives, a holiday party at Elsmere BBQ is the perfect way to show them how much they mean to you. This time of year, we regularly welcome the staff of local businesses celebrating their team’s hard work with a good meal. It’s a great opportunity to enjoy a delicious meal while connecting with your team, family, group, or club. Will yours be next? 

It’s the Season of Giving...and Eating!
This time of year we take every opportunity to gather, give gifts, and express our gratitude for loved ones near and far. For those who we don’t get to see often, the ones who are hard to choose gifts for, any anyone who enjoys a hot meal, an Elsmere BBQ gift card is the perfect choice. Ordering a gift card is easy, and for the recipient, cashing it in for a delicious meal is even simpler! Whether you’re saying thanks to your boss, your kids’ babysitter, teachers, coworkers, or the guy who plows your driveway, an Elsmere BBQ gift card is the gift that keeps on giving. You see, when you give a gift card, you’re giving the recipient a chance to pay it forward by taking a loved one out for a meal, treating a colleague to drinks, or catching up with a friend they haven’t seen in a while. Just like the Thanksgiving holiday, an Elsmere BBQ gift card is about SO much more than the meal. 

No matter how you celebrate the season, we’d love to be included. Whether you order in, take out, get delivery with 2DineIn, stop in to check out the art, host a holiday gathering, or buy gift cards, we are so very thankful for your patronage! Happy Thanksgiving from our family to yours.
