Visit Timber

Our roots

Work hard. Play hard. Eat better.

Timber Kitchen & Bar is one of the hottest spots to see Bangor. We embrace a loose-tie atmosphere, and our “work hard, play hard” motto defines the room. The buzz of conversation, lively music and clinking glasses make an inviting place to unwind after a long day. At Timber we combine class and hospitality to give our guests the best dining experience in Bangor.

Timber translates the story of Bangor’s past into a modern-day dining destination. Bangor was known as the lumber capital of the world for much of the 19th century. Hundreds of lumber mills dotted the landscape along the Penobscot River, and a continuous stream of logs flowed from the northern forests, destined for ships sailing around the world. The design honors this rich history and celebrates Bangor’s role in the lumber industry.

Multiple wood species are worked into the wallcoverings and furnishings, complemented by softer textiles, handcrafted millwork and a woodstove. Classic red flannel upholstery adds a touch of New England to the contemporary space. Timber includes a custom bar and lounge area with a large communal table, a chef’s table overlooking the wood-burning oven, and private rooms for small gatherings.
