Great spot for dinner and drinks.
The lobsters rolls are full of luscious meat and served chilled.
Their margaritas are good and they offer a variety of flavors; mango, blueberry and more.
They have plenty of seating indoor and out. The bar is also a great place to pull up a seat and have some drinks/food.

We got the sweet potatoes fries which were hot, crispy and salted well, although cut way too small. The honey mustard served with the fries was seriously incredible! My boyfriend got the Cowboy Mac and he said it was good. I got the lobster roll with a side salad instead of chips. I think $40 for a lobster roll was extremely expensive for what it was. It was served on a thin slice of plain white grocery store bread. It would have been nice if it was on a brioche bun for that price. It has butter on it but no mayo. It was slightly soggy and falling apart by the end. I will say though, they do put a GENEROUS amount of lobster meat in there, so that contributes to the price. Overall, I’ve had a better lobster price at a better price in Boston, but this place is pretty good.

This was our first bite of food during our 2-day stop in Bay Harbor, and it was really good overall. Minor quibbles include a slightly under-seasoned lobster mac & cheese and server who seemed scattered and disinterested. However, the apple cider margaritas and the seafood dip were very tasty. I would definitely try some other items on the menu on a future visit.

This was our first time here. Bar Harbor was a hopping place and we did the online wait list, started at #44 and our wait ended up being 40 minutes. The process was easy, and now the food part.... wait for it.... food was awesome. The service was also exceptional, from the hist, to our waitress to the food runners. I would definitely recommend this restaurant.

Probably one of the best places to eat in Bar Harbor. Food was so good we went for lunch and dinner to try out more items from the menu. Drinks were refreshing as well with great service.

Had my 1st Lobster roll here and I got hooked (fisherman humor). What a great find. Do yourself a favor and get off the main drag and go to the Side Street Cafe. Nice wait staff, good amount of seating, and excellent food. Crab dip was so good that I forgot to take a pic before eating half of it..

My parents and I just got into town after a long day of flying and driving and came here for dinner. The food was amazing but I especially loved the blueberry pie, it was my number 1 favorite piece of pie the entire trip. They had live music going on and it was just a perfect dinner.

Fun, popular place to grab a casual lunch with outdoor dining options that are per-friendly!
Their lobster stew was the best thing I ate in Maine during my stay, their French fries were the best we’ve tried in Maine, and their chicken salad wrap is as on point with fresh vegetables.
I got a virgin blueberry mojito that was refreshing, pretty, and tasty - highly recommend!

Excellent and quick service. The waitress even mentioned the price of the specials. I got the chicken caprese salad and substituted it with shrimp they did not even charge me extra for the shrimp! The fries were well seasoned and the calm chowder was thick and delicious. The blueberry margarita was strong and tasty. My husband got the burger it came with chips and a lot of avocado. The burger was okay but the rest was very good.

After a long day of hiking at Acadia National Park, we found this wonderful spot to unwind and relax. It had come highly recommended, and we decided to have dinner here. What impressed us right away was their user-friendly website, offering online reservations and a wait-list feature that kept us informed. We only had to wait about 20-25 minutes before our table was ready.
For our main courses, we opted for the Lobster Feast and Lost Lobster, which included clam chowder and lobster bisque. While the food was good, it didn't quite reach the level of excellence. However, what truly stole the show was the blueberry pie with ice cream. We enjoyed it so much that we returned the next day solely for another slice of pie. Without a doubt, this place serves the best blueberry pie in Bar Harbor, having tried a few others. We wholeheartedly recommend indulging in their delectable blueberry pie.
