Legendary Maine Biker Bar Sets 2024 Opening Date

Whether your bike is your life or you’re a weekend warrior, you know about Bentley’s Saloon.

Located in Arundel, this establishment has evolved from a small bar to one of the largest biker bars in New England.

With the bras hanging from the rafters, a bronze hog you can 'ride' for photo opportunities, the cold beer, and the amazing live music, there is no doubt that Bentley’s Saloon is a biker bar.  Over the last 20 years, the place has become iconic among New England's biker community.

While the bar serves up cold beer and great mixed drinks, the establishment has a full food menu.  It shouldn’t be a surprise that they serve typical bar foods like wings, nachos, fries, burgers, and fried pickles.  There is so much more on the menu, though.  Bentley’s menu features lobster stew, lobster mac-n-cheese, baked haddock, and steak tips.

Love BBQ?  Every Saturday, Bentley’s Saloon has a pig roast.

There’s always something going on, too.  Bentley’s Saloon has an open mic on Wednesday, karaoke on Thursday, and bands all weekend.

Bentley’s is more than just a place to visit on your way through.  As of 2024, the place has over 100 full-service campsites.  You really can make a weekend of your visit.

The history of Bentley’s Saloon

According to the establishment’s website, the place got its start when race car driver Bentley Warren purchased the one-room bar in 2004.

Over the years, the place has grown A LOT!  It now features an indoor bar, outdoor bar, a courtyard the feels like a backyard, a corn hole area, and stages for live entertainment.

The website explains:

Our mission is to welcome everyone with such a fun time that they can't wait to come back before they leave!!  Don't let Bentley's fool you, we're not just a bar, you don't have to drink to have fun with us!  We have weekly car shows, live music and entertainment daily, motorcycle shows, costume parties, cornhole tournaments and the list goes on.

Opening weekend at Bentley’s Saloon

According to the bar’s Facebook page, the 2024 season will get started this Friday (April 26).  The season will get kicked off in style with four bands.  Bad Habit will be there on Friday, Roc-Kin’-On and the Jodie Cunningham Band on Saturday, and American Ride on Sunday.
