This place rocks! Love the ambiance, the staff are super friendly, the food is delicious, hearty, and well priced, and the location can't be beat! Definitrly recommend any of their beers on tap and the blackened fish burger. Really good stuff! 10/10 would recommend!

Went here a week before memorial day so it wasn’t so busy. We also came in at soon as they open, server was very friendly and attentive. We just ordered a quick bite before we drive home. Lobster roll was great, a lot of meat and tasted very fresh! One of the best I’ve had. Shrimp was also fresh and perfectly cooked. Loved our quick lunch

Our favorite place in Bar Harbor!! We had to go back again before we left, and we will definitely be coming again. Great atmosphere, amazing food, and amazing staff! Our bartender, Hannah, was the best! We got the fish and chips, pesto chicken sandwich, fried class, and sweet potato fries. The food was better than other more expensive places down the road. Definitely a must visit in Bar Harbor!

Wow! Everything was amazingly cooked and our server went above and beyond to make sure we had everything we needed and were happy! He made great suggestions as well! I had the lobster roll which was a little smaller than expected but excellent! Their whale salad is really flavorful almost sort of a play on a greek salad! The marsh island IPA was so good, I got 2 and I usually never have more than 2 beer with dinner. We also tried the fish and chips, the blacked fish sandwhich and the fried haddock sandwhich, a bowl of clam chowder as well as the seafood sampler. We loved the clam chowder is even rivals a spot in Boston that has my heart. For dessert we all shared the blueberry white chocolate cheesecake which was delicious but the little blueberry sauce on the side was so dang good. I would've eaten that off a shoe. Everything was hot, tasty and fresh! We would love to come in again. 10000% recommend this place. We also picked up some cute merch as well! This place wasnt too packed since they just opened yesterday but in so happy it was open so we could stop by!

The West Street Hotel is like a 3 minute walk if you don't get distracted by little shops on the way :) I stayed there back in May and it was wonderful.
