Horrible service- bartender (beard) has a mouth on him after you ask to order a second time. Table behind us that came in behind us was enjoying their food before we got to order drinks- at the bar. We ended up walking. Everyone has an off day, but this isn’t Bar Harbor Blaze. That’s for sure.

Nice outdoor beer garden, delicious food. I especially enjoyed the fish and chips which which were crispy and hot. Service was a little slow (it was busy) but very friendly and helpful. With a short high season and little competition in the area, prices will reflect that. They even welcomed our dog to the beer garden with a bowl of water. In the evening bring a jacket if you are dining outdoors, as it cools quickly when the sun goes over the hill. A very pleasant dining experience! We will return!

The food was acceptable. Not amazing, but not bad. The service was alright, but felt like we could have been checked in on a little more.
It was an acceptable experience dining here.

We had high hopes for Blaze and even adjusted our vacation schedule to have dinner here, but unfortunately, it was a major disappointment. From the moment we arrived, the experience went downhill. I believe it was the manager who seated us, mentioning that our server would be with us shortly. After several minutes, the manager returned with water, then came back 15 minutes later to take our order himself, as we still hadn’t been greeted by a server.
We received our drinks and had been sitting for about 20 minutes when our server finally appeared, clearly confused that we already had drinks and had placed our order. The food arrived in a reasonable time, and while I enjoyed the duck fat truffle fries, my boyfriend’s experience was ruined when he found a cooked mosquito on his second slice of pizza, which he understandably couldn’t finish.
I had a pumpkin sour beer that was quite good, and my boyfriend was looking forward to ordering a second beer. Unfortunately, after our server briefly checked in on us a few minutes after the food arrived, no one returned to our table for 20 minutes, by which point we were ready to leave.
The atmosphere itself was nice, and we wished we had come earlier just for drinks so we could sit outside in the beer garden. However, the lack of attention, the issue with the food, and the fact that one bathroom had a non-working sink while the other barely had water coming out left us with a poor impression. Of the four days we spent in Blue Hill, Blaze was the only bad part of an otherwise great trip.

I had high hopes for this place. Vacationing from MN and found this place on Google. Atmosphere was fantastic, loved the fire pits. Buffalo soldier pizza was good, not overly fantastic. Loaded tots were disappointing, tots were fine , very little cheese and the short ribs were so tough I couldn't even chew them. It was more like a thinly cut cheap steak that was poorly cooked. The dogs liked them though, most expensive dog treats I've ever bought. Our server must have been busy inside because he brought out food ( which took a long time) did not bring any utensils for us to eat with, never came back to check on us,and I had to go and find him so I could pay my bill.

I absolutely love this place. Sitting outside in the fall with a plate of their poutine is where it's at. Glad to have a good year-round restaurant in this small, quiet town.
Nice selection of beers and cocktails. Delicious food and pleasant atmosphere

Stopped by traveling through the area. The atmosphere (outdoor dining), service and food all were amazing. Loved my drink and cocktail. Definitely on my list to stop again.

Great place in an old blacksmith building. Basement not really disabled accessible. Patio has 5 stairs but they are working on a ground floor seating area

The staff is really nice. The food was a bit uneven, but all in all it was good.

Ordered drinks and apps, received them, but never came back for a dinner order. 45 minutes later he dropped off a bill, said sorry we're short staffed. Never even asked if we still wanted to order dinner.
