My (now) wife and I first visited Sweet Pea's for a weekday lunch - the food was incredible and the vibe of the place unmatched. Such a lovely cozy space outside of the hustle and bustle of Bar Harbor. A few years and several visits later, we were engaged and looking for a wedding venue...Sweet Pea's ended up being one of the best wedding decisions we made! Christian and his team were extraordinarily helpful throughout the whole process and helped us bring our (sometimes vague) vision to life. The property is lovely and allowed us to do everything from ceremony to dinner and reception in one place, the food was delicious and fresh, and our guests had a blast. We couldn't be happier with how our day turned out. Thanks again Christian for all of your help and thoughtful suggestions along the way. We're fans for life. - The Harrises

My fiance and I could not believe how good the food was. This was my first time at a total farm to table kitchen. The staff was amazing, and the atmosphere was still great despite the spotty weather.

Good pizza. Slightly more expensive than I would expect.
Outside seating was nice but was here in October so heaters would be nice. They do provide blankets for your legs though, so that helps.

this has to be top 3 restaurants in maine. a uniquely rustic outdoor seating arrangement and the freshest food I've had anywhere in the last decade. A farm-to-table paradise.
Vegetarian options: on-menu veggie options and specials.
Parking: if the parking lot is full, odds are there will be a wait, as there is more parking than there are seats.
Kid-friendliness: with a beautiful garden and open, mowed fields, there's plenty of room for kids to get their yah-yahs out and run and play before/after eating.

this was the best meal i had while in new england & second place wasn’t even close. the food is all locally sourced and you can watch all of your meal being prepared as the kitchen is in plain view from the indoor seating area. great music, wonderful service, and the food is outa this world. i cannot recommend this place enough. i ordered: 2 glasses of red wine - decent selection 1/2 dozen oysters - locally sourced and flavorful in the right way 1 ranger pizza - the carrot based dipping sauce was a VERY pleasant surprise.

Incredible food, adorable location and vibes. The staff was super nice and friendly. The pizza was wildly tasty. Great stuff all around.

A nice and cozy pizza establishment. I wouldn’t say the food is to die for, but it definitely satisfied my dinner cravings and would recommend it to anyone looking for a place while in the area. We got the Plancha Potatoes and The Hunter wood fired pizza. In my opinion the potatoes were actually much better than the pizza and I wish we had a whole bunch more of those! We enjoyed the sauce that came with the pizza—was something a bit tart that tasted like vinegar and cut through the heavier taste of roasted veggies and bacon on the pizza. Enjoyed my cocktail—Ginger Whiskey for sure though! $14, pretty standard for cocktails for where I’m from as well.
All in all, it’s a nice vibe and very cozy place. They’ll give blankets if it’s chilly for you outside and there’s a fire pit out on the lower deck. Definitely enjoyed it.

I was traveling alone in Maine and I asked a local to recommend a place for dinner outside of downtown Bar Harbor. He recommended Sweet Pea’s the grounds are clean, rustic and charming. Unfortunately the dining was closed to the public due to a private party and I ended up in their winery tasting room. The atmosphere was warm, inviting with a modern rustic feel. I was served by friendly and knowledgeable staff and sampled delicious wines. A sweet experience that I’m so glad I had.
This place absolutely rules. Incredible food, even the pizza crust is good. Blueberry wine... insane. The music playlist = pure magick. There're flowers... it's giving hobbit.

Really loved this place, I wish I could eat here everyday. The food was amazing and I like that it’s locally sourced. All the staff were so nice and it’s dog friendly! It was so cold when I went, but they have blankets that you can borrow to warm you up. There’s a fire pit and the backyard is so nice. I highly recommend coming here!!

Ate here at 5 pm on a Wednesday, shared nachos (speciality of the day) and pizza. The nachos were atypical- sweet peas squash, spicy salsa, corija cheese & over easy egg. My husband and I were greatly surprised how delicious it ended up being 10/10. Pizza was the best we’ve had in the bar harbor area too! They had their mulled wine as a special which left a crisp delicious after taste. 10/10!!

Outside dining, Mexican blankets supplied to wrap up in, along with blazing fire in the pit and hot cider to warm your core. Waitress was friendly, helpful, and welcoming. Gluten-free friendly options.
Dietary restrictions: Gluten-free meatballs! We both had the chicken stew. I could have been happy having the plancha potato appetizer as a main course. SO delicious! Pizza looked amazing.
