Why it's listed
Cowbell Burger Bar is the Biddeford outpost of a small Maine burger group, sitting at 140 Main Street with a build-your-own burger program and around two dozen specialty burgers. Wagyu is one of the patty choices, printed on the lunch and dinner menu as WAGYU (American Kobe), and it can be swapped onto other burgers and sandwiches for a small upcharge. The same patty is orderable online as the Waygu Burger, using the spelling the kitchen itself uses. No breed, grade, ranch or supplier is named for that beef anywhere a diner can read it.
Authenticity flags
- The Wagyu here is a burger patty the menu describes as "American Kobe", a US marketing phrase for American-raised Wagyu crossbred beef. It is not the certified Kobe beef from Japan's Hyogo prefecture, and no breed, grade or ranch is named, so ask the kitchen where the patty comes from if that matters to you.

Common questions
- Does Cowbell Burger Bar serve real Wagyu?
- Its own current menu advertises Wagyu, and that claim was read directly on August 9, 2026. What the menu does not do is say which Wagyu: no prefecture, grade, breed status or producer is published, so the sourcing cannot be checked from outside. That is a gap in what is written down rather than a suggestion that anything is wrong with the beef, and plenty of kitchens buy carefully without printing the details.
- What kind of Wagyu does Cowbell Burger Bar serve?
- Its menu discloses American. Each of those is taken from the venue's own current materials rather than from a review or a listing site, and the evidence behind it is quoted further down this page.
- Why is Cowbell Burger Bar listed without a Wagyu badge?
- Because a badge here means the sourcing was checked, not that the food is good. This listing is published because the venue genuinely advertises Wagyu on its own current material, and it carries no badge because that material does not say which Wagyu. If the venue publishes the prefecture, grade, breed status or producer, the listing can move.
