Finback Alehouse is awesome!! Such a fun welcoming vibe, MattyP is a hoot! Come on Wednesdays for Music Bingo, sold out!!! Get here early, such a great spot in Bar Harbor during winter.

So. We had a choice to make between two places and decided to leave one whale behind and come to Finback.
Total right move. Completely different vibe. Matty P was awesome as our bartender. On point. He made some great recommendations. I’ll second the lobster pot pie. Slamming.

Came here for a late snack but was sad that the chowder was lukewarm (they probably didn’t expect people to order soup so late). The ambiance reminded me of a hallmark movie dive bar with the Christmas lights. The blueberry cocktails were great!
