No state certification required

Maine does not require a specific bartending license. Bartenders must be at least 18 years old. The Maine Bureau of Alcoholic Beverages and Lottery Operations oversees establishment licensing. While responsible server training is not mandated statewide, Portland and many coastal establishments prefer trained bartenders. Maine's serving hours run from 6:00 AM to 1:00 AM. Portland has been repeatedly named one of America's best food cities, and its cocktail scene has grown to match.
