“10/10 - service, food and beverages - amazing! Stopped in during a visit to bar harbor this past weekend and were well taken care of by the staff who provided great food and beverage recommendations, also attentive with the service! Be sure to try the blue corn chips and if you like spice - try the hot salsa!“

“The best part about dining at The Terrace Grill is the view across the harbor toward Bar Island. It’s stunning. Next is the service. Our server, Kim, did an excellent job balancing checking on us and giving us space. She paid special attention to details with our order and answered our questions about the harbor and the community. Finally, the food was very good and well presented. My wife had the Blueberry salad with Salmon which was outstanding. I had the fish tacos with grilled haddock and they were quite tasty. The sauce and salsa had excellent flavor. The fish was a little dry. The prices were quite reasonable and I would definitely go back.“

“A Perfect Stay at the Claremont – Made Unforgettable by Captain Alwyn (sp?) and Lady A Our stay at the Claremont was absolutely incredible from start to finish. The rooms were beautifully appointed, the service was attentive and warm, and the location couldn’t have been more picturesque. Every detail felt thoughtful and refined. Dining at Little Fern was also a highlight—delicious food, elegant ambiance, and top-tier hospitality. But what truly made our trip unforgettable was our charter with Lady A. We were lucky enough to set out with Captain Alwyn, a knowledgeable and passionate local who brought the beauty of the area to life in such a personal and engaging way. From hidden coves to sweeping coastal views, every moment on the water felt like a scene from a dream. Captain Alwyn’s expertise, warmth, and deep roots in the community made the experience both relaxing and enriching. If you’re staying at the Claremont, I can’t recommend this experience enough. Treat yourself to a day on Lady A—it’s a must-do, and one of the most memorable parts of our Maine getaway.“

“Definitely one of our favorites! Delicious creative cuisine & craft cocktails and super friendly people. Especially love their delicious salmon appetizer, Korean BBQ pulled pork sandwiches, and the Blueberry Lemon-drop martini! Great local place with a great vibe - 100% worth the drive to Winter Harbor!“
