Really cute, delicious breakfast spot in Bar Harbor. Gets busy fast and doesn’t take reservations early, but the hostess coordinating tables was very efficient. We had a group of 7 and had an excellent brunch.

Every fall me and my dad stop in here for breakfast for our hiking trip. Food and coffee are always great here. Also recommend getting there early since the place does get busy.

This is the best blueberry pancake in town. The crunchy edges are so good. Everything else was classic and solid.

Long wait on a weekend; food and service was ok, but not worth the hype. The coffee didn’t fit my taste, but maybe it is good for others.

We had breakfast here three days in a row during our stay in Acadia, and every single meal was fantastic. The staff deserves a special shout-out, Tyler and Brenna were incredible hosts who took such great care of us, making us feel like regulars from the moment we walked in.

My husband loved their vegan tofu scramble so much that he ordered it all three days, flavorful, hearty, and perfectly cooked with fresh veggies and crispy home fries on the side. I decided to try something different each day: the ricotta toast on Day 1, the avocado toast on Day 2, and a bagel with herbed cream cheese on Day 3. Every dish was delicious and beautifully presented.

The coffee was fresh and strong, just the way I like it, and the quirky, colorful interiors added so much character to the place. From the food to the friendly service and the fun atmosphere, Café This Way truly captures the cozy, creative vibe of Bar Harbor.

Highly recommend this spot for anyone visiting Acadia, you’ll leave happy, full, and already planning your next breakfast here! ☕🍳🥑

We were so lucky to have stumbled upon Cafe this Way. Tremendously friendly staff, amazing food, and the wait was not terrible at all. The perfect place to fuel up before a long day in Acadia!

MY FAVORITE BREAKFAST PLACE EVER! My fiancé and I went here for breakfast every morning before going hiking. Such amazingly friendly staff and their pancakes are to die for. 10/10 I cannot wait to come back to Bar Harbor!

I had an amazing experience here, and the food was amazing. Blueberry pancakes 10/10. I actually left my wallet there and it happened to be the day I was going home to another state, so by the time I realized I left it, it was too late. They went out of their way to mail me my entire wallet to my house. I am so happy, not only with the service I received when I was there, but also the kindness I was granted even after I was long gone.

I don’t like to say bad things about businesses but this place does not deserve the reviews it has and the people deserve to know. First, we waited over an hour for a dog friendly table, which is fine, but the food was not worth it. They make you buy any extra sides that come with your eggs like potatoes, toast, fruit, etc. The home fries were the worse I’ve ever had- overly fried and reheated and dry, not even an onion or pepper or seasoning. The eggs were teeny tiny and barely enough to sustain a meal. My mom’s eggs were still very runny. As someone who makes sure every meal of a trip is the best popular, I felt very mislead by this place. Go to 2 Cats down the street, so much better food for the price and the ambiance is much cuter. The more my family and I thought about this meal the more mad we became by it lol

Went on weekday for lunch and there was queue. I heard so many good reviews so I didn’t mind waiting. Service is excellent. We were seated shortly and my husband tried the best lobster Benedict and he loved it. One of the best breakfast place in town.
