You could call it “happy hour,” but we prefer “aperitif,” or “an opening,” in this case, to your evening. We stay open between lunch and dinner from 4 to 6 Thurs through Sat so we can hold this special space for you and yours. We offer wine by the glass, classic aperitif like vermouths and fino sherry, as well as house-made non-alcoholic offerings, alongside a simple food menu of densely delicious snacks, small plates, and cheeses. Stop in for an after-work cooldown or make us your first stop on a big night out. Come with friends or come with a book. However you do it, we hope you’ll come by to spend this special

Since we are a small restaurant with limited parking, we do require reservations. Please use the form on our landing page or e-mail us at info@circumstancemaine.com to book your table.
