These Are The Restaurants People Want To Come To Bangor

We asked for your choice, and over 500 people responded!

Back on Friday night, we posed a question on our Facebook page, asking "What type of chain, or locally owned, themed restaurant is the Bangor area missing right now?"

There were so many great responses, be it a well known chain, or a type of local eatery that is currently absent here in the Bangor area. One suggestion that seemed to pop up over and over was Popeye's!

Check out the amazing picks for this question, and keep your fingers crossed that Bangor gets some of them! And if we missed any, let us know!
