Got the Down East Lobster Bake - highly recommend - some of the freshest and best-tasting lobster we had.

We just drove in today from Canada, but from the Houston area, and oh my gosh...they typically serve their lobster rolls cold, but our wonderful Chicago server had it made warm with butter for me. Ahhhmazing! I think I ate the entire thing with my eyes closed and a smile on my face! My husband had the one with cheese but it was served on bread rather than a roll and it was good...whatever...but mine was epic. And the blueberry cake was great too. I want to return for the lobster dinner. Or another roll. Oh, it's a very casual place, which was great. And They had the LSU game on (pretty sad for LSU ) but the food was sooo good. read more

Great place to grab lunch after exploring Acadia National Park. My wife and I split a lobster and had the Mac and Cheese lobster. All was cooked to perfection. They had a a man singing classic rock songs while playing guitar. They feature local IPAs as well as out of this world bloody Mary's which are topped off with a large shrimp! Great local place which features some beautiful views as well. read more

Tonight we visited Bar Harbor Lobster Bakes on a tour we were on. It was fantastic! I grill lobster tails at home but this was a whole different experience. The dining room is spacious and inviting with a great view of the bay (where your lobsters come from). We got a whole lobster, an ear of corn, roll, small potato, along with orders of mussels and clam chowder. You can have wine and beer as an accompaniment. The mussel were steamed and seasoned to perfection. We have had a lot of lobster visiting Maine but this lobster was delicious! You may need assistance with cracking the whole lobster. Staff is happy to help and attentive. Owner Heather is a gracious and friendly host. Desert was a blueberry cake. A wonderful dining experience. Cheers. read more

Was here for a wedding reception and it all worked out well. We had a great area for our party and the staff was very welcoming and attentive. I had the Lobster Mac and Cheese and it was very good. I loved their Bloody Mary. So so good and spicy! My husband had the steak and he loved it. Only down side was that the steaks come out so late that the rest of the party that didn't have steak was almost done with here food or ended up eating cold food because they waited for the steaks. Overall the location was beautiful and well maintained. Would stop by again when in the area. read more

This is a great place. Our tour guide took us here after our tour was finished and we loved it! It is a very casual place with a pretty view and super clean. We all had lobster rolls and everyone agreed that they were the best in town. Fresh rolls piled high with super fresh lobster meat. The service was fantastic as well. Highly recommend! read more

We had no idea what a lobster bake meant and were happy to discover it here (a tray of food with steamed full lobster, corn, chowder, etc). The food was tasty but certainly required some effort on our part. The fish sandwich was also yummy, well seasoned and fresh. There weren't many places we found that could accommodate a party of 9 people (especially indoors on a blistery evening) and so were so happy to find this place. We loved loved the blueberry pie - warm and so full of delicious tiny Maine blueberries. The blueberry cake was fairly dry in contrast. read more

Bar Harbor Lobster Bakes was our very first stop after a long day's drive from the White Mountains, and honestly, it set the tone for our whole Maine adventure. Even the wind tried to crash our dinner, but the food more than made up for it. We started with the lobster bisque, which my husband took very seriously -- he ordered bisque everywhere we went in Maine and appointed himself an unofficial judge. Verdict here? Top contender. The lobster tail was fresh, buttery perfection, and that sweet corn on the cob might've been the best I've ever had (sorry, Midwest). Our server was an absolute gem -- friendly, funny, and full of great tips. She even told us to check out the beach across the street, where I found my very first piece of sea glass. Bottom line: great food, lovely people, and a seaside charm that makes you forget the wind's trying to steal your napkin. read more

We were craving lobster!! And we saw a sign on the side of the road for twin lobsters for $35. So we had to get it!!! I got the twin lobsters. And my boyfriend got the Downeast Lobster Bake, which is a full lobster with clam chowder and mussels and blueberry cake. My twin lobsters were INCREDIBLE. I ate ALL OF IT! They made the lobster to perfection. Juicy and tender and soft! I do like my lobster with lots of lemon. And I had to ask for extra lemons twice bc they only gave me a couple slices at a time. So I was a little disappointed about that. The clam chowder was okay. Good but there wasn't much clams in there so I probably wouldn't get it again. The mussels were okay, they were not flavorful. The blueberry cake was delicious. If we go again, I think my boyfriend and I will stick to simplicity and both order twin lobsters! read more

Best place in Bar Harbor. Best food we had the whole week we were there and the ice cream/coffee boat is the perfect way to end the meal.

On our visit to Maine, we have tried many lobster bake restaurants. But on our way to Acadia National Park we discovered a hidden gem. The restaurant is a family owned business. Bar harbor lobster bake restaurant nested along the road facing the coast. We recommend this restaurant for the exceptional customer service and by far the best lobster dinner. It was so good we stopped by 3 times in a span of two days. This restaurant should be on everyone list for a stop for lunch or dinner. The lobster dinner is to die for - there's a special between 1-3pm. Family friendly service price are reasonable and food are excellent quality. read more

We all loved this place, food was great, view was unbeatable, staff was very friendly, especially our waitress Lindsey and the owner Heather. And most importantly, the service was fast! Which was great because we skipped lunch and it was 6:00pm. My daughter is a picky eater and after finishing the lobster stated she'd give the restaurant 6 stars. Would highly recommend. read more

Stopped in for two lobster rolls. The lobster is AMAZING! The best lobster roll I've ever eaten. There is no indoor seating, so you have to eat outside. Talked to the owners daughter and she told me that the. Oat goes out daily and the lobster is very fresh. If you are ever in Bay Harbor, skip all other places and head over to this place for the best lobster roll you will ever eat! read more

With so many lobster serving restaurants in this general area to choose from we found this 1 w high reviews & took a chance on and did not disappoint. We started w a Pinot Noir wine very good taste, a delicious healthy baked haddock filet w corn, slaw & tartar sauce then the main event a 1.5# Maine lobster dinner with side of Mac n cheese plus butter our server Jordan H she kindly assisted us taking the meat from tail, claws & knuckle out. We sat @ an outside table watching the waterfront. Ambiance felt private. Plenty of free parking available. I rate 4.5 stars. The temperature here in northern Bar harbor Maine was a constant 45 degrees at night also from this point Nova Scotia, Canada (Titanic departure port) hi speed ferry service was available thru Sept. 22nd. The people here are truly kind, hospitable as well. read more

Great food, service, and view. Enjoyed the experience. Highly recommend. The lobster is tasty.

Food was good. Service was on par and the environment just fine. I would go again when in the area.

It was just OK. We arrived and there were cars in the parking lot, so we figured it would be good. It was also recommended by our campground check-in person. There were a lot of people because there was a wedding rehearsal going on. There weren't any other customers. The service was good. We were seated promptly and the waitress was friendly and prompt. The food was mixed. The chowder was pretty good. We shared a whole lobster meal. The lobster was overcooked and rubbery/tough. We were very disappointed as this was our first meal in Maine and it was rather expensive. I have had much better lobster on cruise ships and at home getting tails from Publix. We will try another place because they certainly can't all be this bad. read more

Lobster roll was good, but nothing life changing. I wouldn't go out of my way for this lobster. Mussels were mussels, good, but very plain. Now what I WOULD go out of my way for was that incredible Blueberry Pie and Blueberry Ice Cream. Best way to end the day. Walked right in at 7:30 on a Monday in Mid-October. Big place, but the ambience wasn't anything too special. A fun vibe and nice view! read more

The good: full lobster bake with corn @ $54. Service and cocktails were good. The bad: the lobster Mac and cheese literally had three small pieces of lobster, about four bites @ $38. read more

When in Maine you have to eat lobster. This had some good reviews and there are a ton of other lobster restaurants in Maine. I can't say how this is comparable to the others but it was delicious. You can definitely tell the difference in the taste. The clam chowder was the best I've tasted (Midwest). We ate outside and the picnic tables made the place and it was definitely a lobster place. The server was excellent, he kept on checking with us. One nice thing about this place is the instructions for eating lobster. I had the lobster bake and clam chowder which the lobster was sweet and the clam chowder had fresh clams. Places I've been to, the clam a tasted fishy. My wife had the lobster Mac and cheese and she loved it as she isn't really a lobster person. My meal came with a blueberry cake. It was a la mode. It was sweet and made perfectly. I guess blueberry's are the popular fruit in Maine. If you are in Bar Harbor ME and want lobster this is a good place to eat. read more

Delicious!!! Had the lobster roll and blueberry cake. Both were in yummy! Even my kids found something delicious to eat which is sometimes a struggle in vacation. The staff was friendly and service was quick. The view was also beautiful! read more

Very good Maine lobster. I've tried their dinner combo that comes with muscles, clam chowder, corn, and a dessert. Next time I come, I'd recommend getting the twin lobsters. Maine lobsters are just amazing and sweet. This is a great pit stop if you want to get lobster before head to bar harbor center. Service was great. Spacious with parking Nice view of the waterfront. I would come back here when I visit Maine again. read more

This place was so great! The server was so friendly, funny, and polite. There is inside and outside seating, but we sat inside (it was so hot coming back from Pirate's Cove, another great attraction) and enjoyed the view of the beautiful cove. My brother and I both got their lobster rolls, 34 dollars per roll, much less than other places charging 40. And they overflow the rolls with lobster! The slaw was good a tasted fresh. Blueberry soda from Bar Harbor, lemonade is freshly squeezed, and iced tea is freshly brewed. Yum! And my grandmother got the clam chowder, I tried some, and it was the best! The thing that topped it off, though, was the wonderful blueberry pie, served with homemade blueberry ice cream and whipped cream. It was absolutely amazing. This place is probably the most underrated lobster place in Bar Harbor. Definitely would recommend. read more

This for sure was the best restaurant we ate at this week, I'm glad we made the hour drive to experience this place! We got the lunch special 2 lobsters for only $35 it came with corn!

The hostess and the Server were very friendly and helpful making suggestions! Our table had a view of the ocean, the restaurant was Decorated very cute and was very clean! read more

The price is right for huge portions here along Hull's Cove. Delish lobster bisque and huge, creamy cheesy lobster mac and cheese.

Three of us ate here and we all loved the dishes. I had the whole lobster and it was amazing. My sister had the twin lobster tails and she said they were incredible. Other half had fish and he dosas it was great also. read more

The food quality for the price doesn't add up. Enjoyed the tomato and burrata salad, but the potato salad is not good and the clam chowder was only ok. My husband didn't care for his meal at all. People were friendly though and you'll have a great view if you sit outside or next to the windows. read more

Simple and super fresh. Ordered the lobster basket with corn on the cob, mussels and clam chowder. Tasty chowder, a little salty for my taste. Lobster bisque is good and creamy.

This was a great experience for me and my 3 travel buddies. We are from KY and traveled to Bar Harbor to go whale watching. The other "bucket list" item was for a lobster roll! After careful consideration we settled on this one. We had a FULL day of adventures and this fit the bill. The service was outstanding and we absolutely loved the outdoor seating experience. It seems so authentic, casual and LOCAL! We knew we wanted warm rolls. This one was perfect and my only regret is not just being a pig and getting a 2nd one! The actual bread/bun was soft and extremely fresh but not overpowering at all. We all put some butter on the sandwich but also dipped in the butter. AHHHHMAZING! The homemade chips also deserved a second serving. If you're in the area. Just put a visit there on your remind on your phone. Look no further! read more

We were brought here on our tour of Acadia National Park. They brought in two bus loads totalling 110 people. The restaurant opened abd served just us. The waitstaff was phenomenal and took great care of us. We started with lobster, corn on the cob and potato. We each got shell crackers and bibs. Everything was cooked perfectly. Then the blueberry cake with a crumble on top came out. We weren't expecting this so that was a great surprise. It was delicious. Even if you dont take the tour from a ship go here for fresh and delicious lobster. The lobster was pulled out of a trap an hour earlier, now that's fresh! read more

My family and I went here when we were staying in Bar Harbor. I really wanted just a simple lobster bake since I had never had one...when in Maine! The service was incredible! I have 3 little ones and the hostess let them pick out their own coloring books. When my youngest started having a meltdown they brought her a toy to play with. It's small acts of kindness that can go very far! The lobster was great, I was thankful that it came with instructions on how to use the tools. Made the first time having lobster go smoothly! The restaurant looks out over the water and it's very spacious and comfortable inside as well. read more
