Cushnoc Brewing Company
If the plan is “go out with friends,” Cushnoc is always the answer. The vibe is fun, lively, and perfect for a night off campus. It’s the kind of place where you show up for food and end up staying way longer than planned.

The Mexican-inspired menu goes hard. Tacos, burritos, nachos, and bowls that are filling, shareable, and always hit. Whether it’s a weekend night or a spontaneous group dinner, Cushnoc is where memories get made.

Best for: big friend groups, weekend plans, strong cravings.

Selah Tea Café
When exam season hits and you need a place to actually focus, Selah Tea is that spot. Cozy, calm, and way more motivating than your dorm room.

Their menu has tons of options, milk teas, fruit teas, and snacks, so everyone finds something they like. Orders come out quick, the staff is super friendly, and it’s easy to lose track of time there in the best way.

Best for: study grinds, chill hangouts, long afternoons.

Thai Too
Thai Too is takeout only, but don’t let that fool you. This is some of the best food in Waterville. When you’re starving after classes and need something comforting and reliable, Thai Too always comes through.

Pad thai, curries, stir-fries, all packed with flavor, solid portions, and perfect to bring back to campus for a low-key night in.

Best for: lazy evenings, comfort food, quick dinner wins.

That’s the Mule Munch top three right now. Fun nights out, cozy study days, and takeout that always hits. Waterville has way more to offer than you think, and we’re here to help you find it.
