CJ's Big Dipper Reviews
Overpriced and not great. There’s a sign that says “$500 if you ask where the nearest bathroom is” if that tells you anything about the place. I had the black raspberry ice cream and it was bland, honestly would not recommend.
Very good selection of ice cream flavors. Staff is friendly. A little on the pricy side, but everything in Bar Harbor is. CASH ONLY!
The gentleman working the cash register on June 26, 2026 was kind and helpful. Would highly recommend the blueberry soft serve.

CJ's Big Dipper is a must-visit spot in Bar Harbor, known for their blueberry soft serve ice cream with blueberry chunks. They offer an impressive variety of vegan options, including 9 different vegan ice creams and sorbets. The delicious flavors make the slightly pricier menu worthwhile. It is cash only, but an ATM is available inside. The ice cream flavors are rich, creamy, and full of taste. The staff is phenomenal, polite, eager to help, and patient, even when the place is packed. With a prime location across from the park, CJ's Big Dipper has a favorite selection and quality of ice cream. Customers enjoy the orange vanilla refresher and the brownie with ice cream. However, there are not samples.
