Jeremy’s Ale House in Freeport is a no-frills, full-flavor kind of place that’s built its reputation on cold beer, oversized portions, and a laid-back vibe right on the Nautical Mile. Known for its casual energy and welcoming atmosphere, this bar is a favorite for locals, boaters, and anyone looking to unwind with strong drinks and hearty food in a lively waterfront setting.

The space is exactly what you'd expect from a classic ale house — wooden tables, hanging dollar bills, and walls covered with local memorabilia. The open-air seating during warmer months offers a breezy, marina-side view that’s perfect for daytime drinks or sunset dinners. It’s informal, fun, and unapologetically local.

Jeremy’s is known for its jumbo-sized draft beers, often served in massive styrofoam cups that have become part of the bar’s personality. The beer list covers all the essentials — from domestic staples to popular imports — and there’s always something cold on tap. For non-beer drinkers, the bar serves up well-poured cocktails and frozen drinks that hit especially well on a hot day.

When it comes to food, the menu is stacked with comfort food classics and pub-style favorites. The clams on the half shell and peel-and-eat shrimp are perfect for kicking things off, especially if you're hanging out by the water. The fried seafood platters — particularly the fish and chips or the fried clam strips — are go-to choices for those craving that classic seaside bar meal.

The wings are crispy, saucy, and always hit the spot, while burgers and sandwiches round out the menu with satisfying portions and solid flavor. Don’t skip the onion rings — they’re golden, crunchy, and often steal the show as a side.

The crowd at Jeremy’s is diverse — from locals winding down after work to weekend boaters and groups just out for a fun night. The energy is upbeat, the music keeps things lively, and the overall vibe is relaxed and welcoming, with no pressure to dress up or overthink your order.

For a cold drink, great bar food, and an unpretentious atmosphere with water views, Jeremy’s Ale House in Freeport is the kind of place you visit once — and then keep coming back to.
