Lobster rolls are the best we’ve had in Maine, blueberry cheesecake was amazing, staff was so kind and excited to have us there and we were seated at perfect, intimate indoor table with gorgeous views of the harbor. Went back the next day and had scallops & clams, and food was equally as amazing and fresh as night before. We LOVE Beal’s and will be visiting any time we make it back up to Maine!!“

“The gentleman working at the register seemed to be in a verify irritable mood, indicating his displeasure with his customers loudly enough that people could hear him. Detracted a bit from the enjoyment of waiting in line for coffee. Good bagels though.“

Our meals consisted of fried shrimp & clams, a hot dog and fresh lobster rolls along with French fries, coleslaw and pickles with the sandwiches. Price was comparable with other restaurants in the area. Plenty of parking and room to move around. A great place to watch the power of the ocean.“

“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).“

“Stopped in to grab something before a tour and they were quick! I really liked the blueberry latte but giving 4 stars since the other pumpkin spice latte we got was pretty bland even after trying to stir it up as much as we could. Definitely get something with blueberry in it if you like flavoring in your coffee!“

“The food was amazing especially the fish and chips. Bryce our server was great. The drinks were on point. I definitely recommend this place!!!“

“Fine dining at its best! Food, service, and ambience always perfect. My favorite restaurant on Earth. Elizabeth and James are wonderful and have impeccable taste. Always go several times whenever staying on MDI. One year a nor'easter had knocked out power but they simply handled the situation with the same grace and outstanding experience. Also like that they support local artists, have puchased beautiful artwork there. I can't say enough good things about Red Sky. Highly recommended!“

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

“Service is amazing! Staff very accommodating. Food is a little salty. I told them. Let’s see how breakfast is tomorrow . Will Let you know.“

“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“

“Amazing flavors and cooked to perfection. We had the maple bacon, fruity pebbles and blueberry coffee cake. And a cinnamon dolce and peanut butter cup lattes. The donuts were slightly crispy on the outside which is chef’s kiss on experience. Visit here for a wonderful experience with friendly staff. Added points for the old school hip hop and R&B crankin.“

“Lunch today at Eat a Pita was simple but delicious. Nice grilled ham and cheese and a great chicken salad pita. We shared a crunchy order of homemade chips. Rob was a very good waiter. Awesome spot“

“Wonderful reception and service, fabulous food - all of it. The Lobster Sandwiches on fresh baked homemade bread, the Clam Chowder, and the Coleslaw were a great reintroduction to this place. I was last here probably almost 22 years ago, and we're both so happy that God made us turn into the parking lot on our trip further north. Thanks for a great dining experience.“

“Wicked awesome to find a restaurant that has great food, is reasonably priced (for Bar Harbor) and also caters to food allergies! I’ve recently come up with some food sensitivities and can no longer have gluten or dairy, and these guys acted like it was no big deal at all. We will definitely be back next time we are in town!“

“Every meal I've tried there has been amazing! I've had their butter chicken, palak paneer, korma. VERY tasty!“

“Love this place! Great cocktails and music. Worth a stop“

“Hello there! We discovered your brand at the Maine Culinary Festival in Augusta last month and we LOVE your coffee! We were very loyal customers of another local coffee brand in our area for years, but after trying your products we switched to Coffee Hound coffee. Thank you for making such a delicious product right here in Maine! Keep up the good work! Sincerely, Leah &Todd M. Phillips, Maine“

“Slice of Eden made our wedding cupcakes last year and they were fantastic! We had half of them made as chocolate with Swiss buttercream icing and half blueberry lemon cupcakes with whipped cream icing. They were a huge hit and gone so fast! We decided to have them make us a small blueberry lemon cake with whipped cream icing for our anniversary this year since we did not have one to save from our wedding. They knocked it out of the park! I can’t say enough good things about this place!“

“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!“

“Great food & service! I like to try a variety of foods to give me a feel for what their foundation is, every item was spectacular! Highly recommend wish I'd been coming long ago! Bon appetite 💜“
