Ben & Bill's Chocolate Emporium

I googled "best salt water taffy near me" and this place popped up! We came here before leaving the island. It brought back memories of walking into a store similar and picking up sweets before going home. Everyone is so nice. The taffy is delicious. I also got cotton candy (not pictured) and it was a favorite as well. The store is small and offers a lot. So 5 stars overall!

Tons of options from ice cream, gelato, candies, to whoopie pies. It’s nice they let you sample the flavors before deciding since there are SO many options. The ice cream and waffle cones we had were tasty. However, it is pricier than most ice cream shops I’ve ever been to. For two waffle cones and one scoop it was around $20.

Great place with tons and tons of choices of fudge, pastries, and ice cream. My group got several different ice cream flavors and a red velvet whoopee pie. It was all fantastic. I highly recommend this place to other people visiting the area.

Really cool place to stop for ice cream and candy in downtown Bar Harbor. If you are feeling adventurous try the lobster ice cream. Light butter ice cream with lobster pieces.
