Cool atmosphere and good food, though maybe a little expensive. We had the clam chowder, salad, Lobster Roll served hot, and a strawberry milkshake. We went towards the end of the night and our server was nice, but clearly ready to be done with the shift. For example, we did not get waters until over halfway through our meal because we also got mocktails, even though we asked for the waters first thing. Overall, not a bad experience, but I probably wouldn't go back unless someone else really wanted to go. We sat in the balcony and I will say the view was pretty cool!

Nice setting but below average food. I got the lobster grilled cheese and the only taste was the greasy bread. Wasn’t worth the high price. Not sure if it is what they serve in Maine, but the clam chowder was not even close to being creamy. We got there early before the dinner rush and the lower area was almost empty. Partly my fault, but they should have asked us…2 old slow moving seniors…if we like the upstairs before they ushered us up there. I will say our waitress was very nice and service was quick.

I found the place to be somewhat overwhelming with the past. Albeit cool to see, not for me. The food on the other hand was outstanding, I mean it was really, really good. Well prepared and presented. The staff are the best ambassadors of the restaurant.

Food was AWFUL! We had the clam chowder, lobster, and blueberry pie. The clam chowder had no clams. Lobster tasted like dirty gym socks and the blueberry pie was not baked…the dough was raw.

Great decor, with lots of old car stuff. Friendly service. Huge burgers. Fried pickles just OK. Hard bench seats. Still a nice place for lunch.

The food is very middle of the road. American diner style and food. Service was good. OK for a family for diner style food. There is a reason they have availability at prime time. Would not return.
What a neat place!! We chose this place because of the Google reviews. It all was delicious!! The fried pickles were awesome! And Lobster was too!!

Really cute place! It gave off a nostalgic vibe and the food was amazing. The Seafood Alfredo was amazing. Salmon was great too. All in all this place is for people who want a nice sit down meal to enjoy with the family.

We listened to the bartender, host, and two servers yell at each other from across the restaurant having a conversation in an island language that none of us understood in a restaurant intended to celebrate 1950s Americana.

My wife and I went for a late lunch while visiting Bar Harbor. It is located right in the downtown area. The decor is definitely all retro and even the building itself has a lot of character. Overall very cool place to dine. With the late lunch time and being off-season, we had no issues getting seated. We split the cheese curd appetizer which we both thought was very good, and an ample portion. We then split a burger, which was also very good. The service was okay and the prices were reasonable. We'd gladly go back if we were back in the area.

Lunch at Route 66 today was AMAZING!! Jesse, our server, was awesome. And the Jesse Lobster Tacos and our Lobster grilled cheese were sooooo good! We can’t wait to come back the next time we are in town!
