breakfast menu for franklin trading post
Arshan A.

I laughed, and ate my ass off here. I found out about the place by a local, it's the best local secret I've ever been to. Literally everyone calling each other nicknames, and I was the only one with a menu since everyone else just asked for their "Usual." My mind was blown. I had 2 muffins and 2 ginormous pancakes, and a water for like $6. It's run by like one or two people, so everyone helps clean, serve themselves water. True honor system and you absolutely have to drop by. They have funny signs all over and they're all a bunch of jokers.

We had a great time at Black Moon. The night we were there, they had live music. It is a very…read morewelcoming cocktail bar and restaurant. We were standing near the bar, and one of the bartenders invited us to sit and moved chairs around for us. Service was excellent and very friendly. We had the roasted tomato burrata sandwich and flatbread. Each were great. This is such a cool place, there is a vinyl store within the restaurant, but it was closed when we there. There also was an area they sell guitars, all so random, but fit so well together. A very cool, comfy place to enjoy drinks, food and music.

This pub has great ambience. We had come from Acadia National Park and needed some good food and…read morebeverages and the Black Moon Pub did not disappoint. The historic building has a tin roof and a wooden bar that eeks history. Our waitress was so welcoming and made us feel right at home. I enjoyed the roasted tomato burrata baguette sandwich and it was toasted and tasty. Several of my dining partners also had the same sandwich. Another had the Warm Roasted Root Vegetable Salad that she said was wonderful. We finished the meal with generous portions of carrot cake topped with delicious cream cheese frosting. There is a store inside the Black Moon (that happened to be closed on a Saturday night). In the corner they sell vinyl records and CDs and there is also a selection of guitars. There was also a musician playing live music near the front of the pub that really added to the atmosphere. It was a truly great find right on Main Street in Ellsworth.

Under new ownership and recently opened again! We were here last year for the other owners and…read moreloved it, so we came back. We ordered our lobsters and also indulged in a dozen mussels, Pinot Grigio and Downeast cider! Everything was delicious, staff was very friendly and even brought out a bowl of water for our dog. Dogs are welcome which continues with the wonderful theme of the area of Bar Harbor. We spent one week in Maine this year and came to Acadia Lobster Co twice because the standards for great lobsters and seafood was upheld. Very personable staff from greeting walking to the register to order, to the cashier and the staff that brings the food out. Great addition of hand wash station for two people when your done cracking claws and shells! Very clean eating areas, hand wash station and bathrooms. We look forward to seeing yall next year! Good luck!

We really enjoyed our dinner at Acadia Lobster Company. My wife and I ordered the clam chowder,…read morecorn on the cob, steamed clams, and the brisket sandwich. All of the food was delicious, including the coleslaw, which in all honesty I do not like but always have to try. Pricing for our meal was completely fair, and the lobster costs (which we didn't get) were lower than what I would expect in the area. Some things that added to the experience, great staff. They all seemed happy to be there and were chipper chatting with us a little bit about the place and the cooking area. We chose to eat at the indoor picnic tables and they were clean, some places let their picnic tables get sticky, not so at ACL. Great spot indoor or outdoors. Finally, this made it a 5 star for me. THE BATHROOM WAS CLEAN!!! Seriously, so many places overlook the bathroom cleanliness. ACL bathroom was clean, smelled nice, well lit, and I really appreciated that. If you are in the area, get lunch or dinner at Acadia Lobster Company.
