So, it’s 1989, and your friend has a party in his parents’ basement. He has all the cool video games, for sure, but it’s his parents’ basement, with their furniture and their decorations and the old or new movies playing on their TV, so you’re trying to act all adult and drink adult drinks. The bathrooms are upstairs—will his parents still be up? But the music is awesome, and the vibe is mellow and the company is just right. And the drinks are really good. That’s every night at Up & Up. Just perfect.

I heard about this place from a friend who moved to Saco and discovered it on a whim. We went to check it out as a group and had such a fun night. We thought the free snacks and free food was probably just a rumor we heard, but sure enough our server was bringing over popcorn, chips and nacho cheese, and slices of pizza. We tried a number of different cocktails that were all a hit (the espresso martini was a favorite of our group). Everything about the atmosphere, the music, the games, and the people made this a really fun night out. It felt old school somehow and I hope that never changes.

This is the best local bar experience I’ve had in my life. I highly recommend this if you are looking for a classic game of Nintendo and a beer. Bring friends, great social bar. I’ve never felt safer bringing my family to a bar before.
The bestest spot in biddo/ saco
I love how dark it is in there
Amazing drinks, best espresso martini I’ve ever had in Maine!
Cute little patio if you don’t feel like being a retro vampire
Video games! New and old :)
Free snacks - hell ya!
