    The Harvest pizza with roasted vegetables
    Shortcake S.

    We are on vacation in Bar Harbor and after a day of walking miles on trails in Acadia, we wanted pizza for dinner. I searched and found Sweet Pea's, and was also excited about dining outside of the usually busy downtown Bar Harbor area. This place is so charming and the food was absolutely amazing! The wood fired pizzas were devoured as well as the Plancha potatoes. We had a cheese pizza with meatballs; the Harvest; and the Hunter with a substitution of garlic olive oil for the marinara due to a tomato allergy. Everything was delicious! The crust is perfect and the portion was just right. So happy we found such a great restaurant for the last night of our vacation in Bar Harbor!

    This farm-to-table spot has quickly become a must-visit every time I'm in the area. The setting, right next to Sweet Pea's Farm and Bar Harbor Cellars Winery, is gorgeous and relaxed. You can enjoy a drink by the fire pit and I love that I can bring my pup along on the patio. The menu changes with the seasons and the daily harvest, which keeps things fresh and exciting. Some of my favorites are the local oysters and their specialty pizzas. You really can't go wrong! Last time, I tried the lobster pizza and it was absolutely incredible. The veggies, sourced from nearby farms, are always outstanding too; I often go for the beet salad. Everything feels thoughtful, seasonal, and connected to the local food community.

    I loved this place so much that we ate there twice while on vacation. Snag a seat outside; blankets are available on chilly nights. We sat inside on the second visit, which was nice, too. We had pizza both nights, as well as plancha potatoes and grilled veggies. This Real food is fresh and delightful! It's such a treat! The second night, we got the basque cheesecake, which was heavenly. The wine selection is also great! The menu changes and they have different specials and desserts each night. We tried Fiddle Heads for the first time-loved them!

    My bf and I came here and were so impressed by everything. We've been wanting to have a farm to table style dinner on this trip and we're excited to try this place. Upon coming there was a 45 minute wait, but we didn't mind. The property is so beautiful, we were able to order a bottle of blueberry wine and hang out on the lawn near the pond. All of the staff were very friendly as well. When we were sat we ordered some apps- we got the vegetables, beets, and meatballs. All of the food was very fresh and delicious. We really loved the vegetables, it was what we were looking for on this trip. My bf and I shared the hunter pizza, it came with kale, mushrooms, bacon and it was served with a carrot and olive oil confite. We were blown away by the flavor and the space overall. Definitely come here if you're in the Bar Harbor area, solid spot!

    What in the actual? This restaurant is more than a restaurant. It's an experience. Wait to eat outside after enjoying the garden. The food menu is not huge but it's delicious. Get the pizza, get the chickpeas but skip the beets. I can't stress how beautiful it is - truly a Maine experience. Our kids loved running around the green space. Summer memories made!

    Lobster Grits & Spiked warm cider
    Sam P.

    Was visiting bar harbor in October and I'm always on the look out for farm to table restaurant experiences.. I stumbled upon this magical place and was pleasantly surprised with one of the best dinners I've ever had. Their special was lobster grits and I ordered their seasonal veggies and warm spiked cider. Let me just say I'm a fast eater and I made sure to slow myself down to savor every bit. I was alone and brought a book to read. I'm normally nervous of going to dinner alone however, it seemed every worker made it their mission to make me feel at home and welcomed. Maybe they only hire sweet peas?? Please do yourself a favor and stop by. Oh also- went back to their coffee shop on property the morning and had great coffee and a delicious homemade blue berry muffin. (Sorry for the half eaten picture) I was too captivated by it to take a picture first.

    We came here on Tuesday afternoon after doing a wine tasting Next Door We were going to have lobster also next door but the place seemed very cozy and inviting. We had chicken pizza pepperoni pizza, and the meat balls. Staff is friendly and attentive. After we walked around the garden.

    Lovely restaurant attached to winery with the most charming ambiance. We had a party of 7 and were immediately seated for a late lunch (they open at 3pm) outside. There is very limited seating inside so keep that in mind if the weather isn't ideal. Pizzas were the main entree with some specials and a build your own option. My husband and I got The Ranger pizzas which was good and the beat salad special which was underwhelming. My blueberry spritz drink (local blueberry wine, brandy, soda water) was very refreshing! Our servers were prompt and friendly and the food came out quickly! I definitely recommend this restaurant for dinner if the weather is nice!!

    What an incredible place full of love and purpose. We were so happy to be there and enjoy the food, gardens and humans who make this space happen. Happy s'more season ya'll!

    This place should be on the list of top restaurants on the island. Though it would be hard to get a table. So for now, if you read this, consider yourself luck and go there if you are I to farm to table and a cute place to eat outside with nature yet ironically off the highway. Food was delicious and even tried a new vegetable.

    Old fashioned

    Root beer old fashioned. What a way to start. The pork loin special was tasty, especially the corn and tarragon coulis under potatoes and veg. The Basque cheesecake was sublime. This farm to table restaurant is a special place with atmosphere and great staff. What a way to Maine. Worth the trip.

    Wow. If searching for a good dinner in Bar Harbor, look no further!!! This was hands down the best meal I've had during my entire New England trip. Sweet Pea's was a lifechanging experience for my mom and I. From exploring the garden while enjoying our drinks (especially the Bea Bomb!!!), to our incredible meal, and the spectacular service from Ella, we were blown away! The pulled pork quinoa special and harvest pizza were to die for, along with the incredible tres leches strawberry shortcake, and from two foodies who were craving a healthy, nourishing meal in Maine, this was everything we could have asked for and more.

    Online it says the Cafe hours are 8am to 9pm on Sundays however everything is closed they have a sign saying 11am - 9pm. Is this mistake because of a change in seasonal hours or something?

    Hi! Those are 2017 hours. We are no longer doing breakfast on Sundays.

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.

The toast was our favorite dish all week, with the mushrooms being perfectly cooked and the chèvre bringing a creaminess and slight funk to the dish.

It was all delicious, and flavors were well-balanced, meaning acids and fats were paired well together. Food presentation was exceptional. Service was incredible, in that our waiter answered all of our questions and food came quickly. Additionally, my wife and I showed up at 5:30 and were promptly seated.

Special thanks to Nicole for remembering that my kids had nut allergies and removing the pistachios from the bruschetta without my asking. We will definitely be back the next time we're in Bar Harbor.

I have never had a salad like this and I ate every last bite. The roasted carrots were so good, combined with the crispy onions and the dressing; it was heaven. The chips were incredible and the dip that comes with it just elevates it that much more. I believe it was a pickle dip of some sort? I can't remember specifically, just that I needed a vat of it.
