28 Best Seafood Restaurants in Bar Harbor

“I was hesitant about taking my young family here, but the loft did not disappoint! It's a new family favorite in Bar Harbor, and I have converted to loving seafood and the raw menu because of the loft! The ahi tuna nachos were a hit all around and a big recommendation to try! We can't wait to go back! The staff and food was amazing, and they even catered to my two children (1yr and 4yrs old).“

“Amazing lobster rolls! We might even come again before we leave to head home.“

“🦞 The BEST Lobster I had while in Maine, The Travelin’ Lobster in Bar Harbor. All the locals were here, so I knew I wanted to eat here. It was melt in your mouth delicious!!“

“I have a severe dairy allergy and they were extremely accommodating! Great food, great atmosphere, wonderful staff.“

“It was our first day in Bar Harbor and we chose Galyn’s for dinner. It was delicious. We sat on their front porch overlooking the harbor. The food was great and our waitress was so nice; very pleasant. We had the stuffed crab mushrooms, haddock sandwiches and blueberry crisp-a la mode for dessert. Yummy.“

“Absolutely AMAZING food! Incredible lobster rolls and the best blueberry pie I have ever eaten. Everything was delicious!!“

“A fantastic meal! The owner sat down with us to help us figure out how to best open the lobster because we hadn’t done it many times. He and the staff were extremely friendly. Very reasonably priced and the food was incredible! Highly recommended! Thank you!“

“We’ve been coming to this location for the past several years to celebrate our wedding anniversary and every single time we are in awe of how magical it is💕 Between the amazing staff who put thought that it’s our wedding anniversary, the romantic atmosphere, and the view, so beautiful. Thank you for always making it special❤️ Also Bob is a wonderful pianist and Sabrina is a fantastic waitress, we always enjoy seeing her.“

“Get your blueberry pie fix here. Came
In after dinner for a slice of pie. One of the few options of a place open post dinner time and it didn’t disappoint. Grab a post dinner cocktail while you’re at it that won’t break the bank.“

“Wanted to try this place for lunch and it did not disappoint— I had the Maine lobster dinner and it was all delicious. My husband had the lobster roll with a salad. Our server, Kevin, was very friendly and attentive. We were hoping to sit inside since it was quite breezy outside, but didn’t know they don’t serve inside until 4 p.m. and we didn’t want to wait. If you can eat inside it is much better—still pretty views without the elements! You can sit by the firepit, but I believe the menu is limited. Parking around Bar Harbor is tight—we managed to get a spot in the lot near the Inn.“

“Great experience, service, and food every visit!“

“Best haddock sandwich in Bar Harbor! All the food is so fresh. Love the patio seating area. It’s been great having them open all year round. 10/10 recommend“

“Had dinner tonight and enjoyed ourselves. Our server, Patrick, was wonderful! He got quadruple sat and handled each table with grace and efficiency. Our meals were tasty and we loved the people watching while seated outside. Would definitely come back the next time we are in town.“

“love coming here. great staff. wonderfull food and drinks.“

“Perfect,delicious food ,for both lunch and dinner. Great staff,great view,would love to have this gem in our neighborhood in NC.“

“Stewman’s Lobster Pound in Bar Harbor, Maine is a must visit! The whole lobster is absolutely delicious, and the shrimp is equally amazing. The views of the harbor make dining here even better, and the service is friendly and attentive. It’s a popular spot, so it can get busy definitely get there early. A perfect place to enjoy fresh seafood and soak in the charm of Bar Harbor!“

“Great place! Wish they were open for lunch too“

“Great location within the strip of shops. There is plenty of outdoor seating. We went around 3 pm, so after lunch rush. We waited for around 5 minutes (they had to clean a table). Our server was nice. He took our drink order, and it came out in just a few minutes. We ordered our food, and it came out within 10 minutes. The shrimp po'boy was good. The sauce had flavor but just a little much on the sandwich (it was hard to pick up and put down, got soggy). The chicken salad sandwich was pretty good and light. The lobster roll was a good portion size and didn't have too much mayo. The potato chips had light salt, which tasted good with the sandwiches. The lobster salad was basically a bunless lobster roll. The portion was large and came with a vinaigrette dressing. I ordered a blueberry frizz. It was very sour and didn't taste much like blueberry. Handicapped accessibility would be limited; no ramp (that I saw) to eat inside, you could eat outside 1st floor, which is under cover. The bathroom is tricky, getting in and out with 2 doors that open the same way.

Parking: Street parking that can be difficult to find a spot.

Wheelchair accessibility: Limited to outside, under cover.“

“Great food with an attentive staff. Just enjoyed a wonderful meal with our out of town friends.“

“Nice place with very vibrant atmosphere. Very few vegetarian options , the quinoa burger was not available, but salads and hummus plate were good. Other members in our group had fish n chip and chicken salad , and they loved it. Would be good place for sea food lovers. They have some draft beers which are also nice. Overall a good experience in a prime bar harbor downtown.“

“Wonderful food, stunning views, and great service!“

“Two Cats Restaurant in Bar Harbor is a wonderful spot for breakfast! The food is absolutely delicious, from classic favorites to unique dishes, and the service is friendly and attentive. The atmosphere is cozy and inviting, making it a great place to start your day. It does get busy, so I’d recommend getting there early to secure a table. Overall, a must-visit for anyone looking for a hearty, satisfying breakfast in Bar Harbor!“

“Such wonderful ambiance! The view was spectacular but so was our server Genevieve! The food was superb too! Lemoncello-tini, garlic knots, shrimp & lobster scampi, and hot honey pizza! Topped off with the blueberry pie. 🤌🏼
Must go. Don't pass this up!“

“Great food great staff 🦞🦞🦞“
