HISTORY

The Blue Goose Tavern has been a Lewiston staple since 1933. What began as a humble neighborhood bar has grown into a beloved gathering place for Bates students and locals alike. For generations, friends have met here to unwind, share stories, and enjoy a cold drink, earning it the nickname “the office.”
