Around 9 AM, I was told that they were "cleared out" but the display area was replete with whoopee pies of various types and six or so cream puffs. I bought a pistachio whoopee pie which had been dyed green with food coloring but had a nice pistachio taste. These whoopee pies are considerably larger that what you see elsewhere. The cream was good but a bit grainy in texture. I think that you will find this place hit or miss as it appears -from what they told me- that they do not have a set daily repertoire of items.

There is indoor and outdoor seating, but it was a bit too chilly for outdoor. The service is friendly and efficient. The Plain Pancake is made thin. I love the buttery crispy edges. Forget the fluffy pancakes, these are the best kind of pancakes! I will have to try the blueberry ones next time. The Chia Pudding with Fresh Berries (Memorial Day Weekend Special) had great texture with the fresh mixed berries. The Home Brewed Iced Tea had a great balance of citrus (Red Zinger and Lemon Zinger) to black tea. It is unsweetened, but there are sugar packets on the table. We had wanted to try the Blueberry Bread Pudding, but we weren't the only ones, as it was already sold out for the holiday weekend! We were informed of this a couple times by the staff, so we knew going in. I was stuffed at the end of the meal. Definitely worth the wait.

This is one of them and is located on the south end of the supermarket building. We got a regular coffee, a cappuccino, and one of their specialty coffees called a "cinnamon sensation." The regular coffee was weak but fresh even though it was around 10:30. The cappuccino was smooth and creamy but the foam collapsed pretty quickly. The specialty drink was enjoyable and not overly sweet. Service was pleasant and efficient.

It's in a very cute location on the main road - highly recommended!

They are offering some good quality items in this more remote area of the Acadia park area.

Menu is loaded with all the things I love - omelettes, pancakes, Benedicts, etc. I chose the wild Maine blueberry pancakes with a side of chicken sausage and thought they were delicious! The pancakes were loaded through and through with blueberries in every bite. My husband went with the corned beef hash (his personal fav) and said it was good and it was clearly house-made. Food was out quickly and we enjoyed our meal. Right in the middle of town and clearly a popular spot with tourists, I can see how this can be a loooooong wait during the summer.

However, I think we would've gladly retried our coffees elsewhere they were very much not anything we would have wanted to retry.
