    Great smoothies and bowls. Super fresh and made to order. Friendly staff and great outdoor seating.

    This place was very nice! I ordered a to go vegan burrito and chai smoothie from here - it was the only place with vegan health food options in Bar Harbor. It's very much like a health and wellness store - with some bites, juices and smoothies. The place is very clean, the restrooms are neat and the staff was nice! I'd recommend it if you're in the area.

    We went in around 9 AM during the week and there was no line to order. I had the seasonal pumpkin spice smoothie bowl. The flavor was very good and not too spicy. The price is a little expensive but it's definitely worth it if you were looking for a healthy option. My only complaint is that they close a little early during the week so it's definitely more of a breakfast and lunch place.

    Mermaid Smoothie Bowl

    My husband had the breakfast sandwich and I had the Mermaid Smoothie bowl. Both were delicious. Will definitely come back.

    Acai bowl amd smoothie

    AWESOME place to stop by after hiking in Acadia, since I'm always craving acai bowls or smoothies after a morning in the sun A little hidden from the main street in Bar Harbor but super cute cafe and the staff is so nice! ---acai bowl: love that they still do blended bowls, not the scooped sorbet other places in LA are leaning towards ---smoothie: the hubby really enjoyed this one

    Wonderful reasonably priced real foods. Simple easy to understand ingredients. Friendly staff. Made fresh

    Blissful berry smoothie bowl
    Constance L.

    High quality and healthy food! Detailed breakdown below: **Service, 5/5** Arrived less than a half hour before closing and the staff was so friendly and quick even with a long line piling up. **Decor & cleanliness, 5/5** Gorgeous, clean space with an adorable patio. **Price & portion, 4.5/5** I thought the items would've been worth the price if they used slightly more premium ingredients. For example, the curry citrus bowl had a small boiled egg, but some chickpeas and/or avocado would've made it feel like a complete meal. For my blueberry acai bowl, it would've felt worth the price if they used fresh blueberries instead of previously frozen (?) berries. **Presentation of the food, 5/5** All colorful and gorgeous! **Taste of the food, 4.25/5** - Blueberry acai smoothie bowl, 5/5: Refreshing, perfectly sweet, and packed full of fruit and flavor! Just what I needed after a loooong day of hiking and biking. - Coconut curry bowl, 3.5/5: The bowl was mostly good, but it felt like it was missing a creamy, fuller bodied element like chickpeas or avocado. What bumped this down from 5 stars was the greens -- they left a super dry, weird aftertaste which made me think the greens hadn't been washed. **Other notes** Utensils are compostable!

    Avocado toast with  bacon.
    Tracy R.

    Best breakfast in my opinion! It is tucked away- we almost missed it but Thankfully the universe guided us to Thrive! Great porch food staff and atmosphere Whole Foods and flavor! I got the avocado toast with bacon micro greens a little spice and the fresh lemon wedge was a nice contrast of flavors- and the blueberry lemonade did NOT disappoint! Staff was kind and smiling for a rainy Saturday morning!

    Gluten Free waffles

    The food was great just pricey for a quick service breakfast! The gluten free options were awesome and had a variety of things to choose from. Perfect for allergy friendly options! Customer service was meh- not sure if the cashier knew she was being rude or just her personality. But certainly a turn off for a first time customer. Clean and friendly dining area! We would absolutely come back for the gluten free items.

The food was okay -- tasty enough -- but the portions were small, and the prices seemed to assume I was dining on a rooftop in Paris, not in a side alley. My matcha latte had potential but zero balance -- all grass, no grace. The regular latte was equally meh, more like coffee-scented milk. The Shakshuka was decent but nothing to write home about, and the blueberry pancakes (which everyone raves about) lost some magic once I noticed their "secret ingredient": Golden Malted pancake mix, spotted upstairs near the restroom along with a lineup of pre-bought ingredients and juices. Mystery solved. Which brings me to the biggest question: if nothing's made from scratch, why does it take 30 minutes for the food to arrive? Maybe the wait time is part of the experience -- slow food meets pre-mix café chic. To be fair, the service was friendly, and the vibe was fine if you like dining al fresco in a blah alley with a side of hype. Bottom line: decent flavors, kind staff, but more style than substance. If you're chasing trendy brunch photos, it delivers. If you're chasing real scratch clean cooking, keep walking.

This place has extensive outdoor seating. Service is ok, since you just order and they bring you food, there is not much of a role for them. There is only one tiny restroom, and you need to be in the line even if you want just to wash hands. I had matcha latte which wasn't good at all. But overall it was a decent place.

    My boyfriend and I were visiting Maine and got dinner in SW Harbor, so naturally we wanted to get…read moreice cream after. I couldn't find the menu of flavors/items online nor on any social media so I called the store to ask if they had any vegan flavors. The worker was very nice and told me they had 4 flavors! I do wish they listed flavors online though! We went about an hour before close and luckily got there before a bunch of other people did. My boyfriend is allergic to peanuts and tree nuts and while the employee was very helpful with identifying which ice creams had nuts in them (they had a poster on the wall as well as a sheet) we noticed almost every flavor that didn't contain nuts was right next to a nut-containing flavor, which could increase the risk of cross contamination. The employee did wash his hands and the scooper but I wish this spot just separated the nut-containing and nut-free flavors! Very easy switch. I got the vegan blueberry crumble which was super yum, and my boyfriend got the S'mores which he also enjoyed! I did like that there were some sodas/snacks on the shelves and souvenirs too. Overall a good shop but I think it has space to improve! :)

This wasn't only an ice cream store, but they also sold some desserts, snacks, and lots of mugs, etc. I really wanted blueberry ice cream but they didn't have any so I settled on a soft serve swirl. I wanted sugar cone but they said they couldn't do it in a sugar cone. Oh yes you can! You just need to make the swirls more compact so it doesn't get too high. Disappointed they wouldn't do it. The soft serve was decent and the small size was plenty big. Seems like everywhere we have gone in Maine we spend $18 on 2 items.

    I sooooo appreciate that there are healthier and/or plant-based options popping up in cities and…read moretowns all across Maine. We knew we'd be hiking all day (and had a heavy dinner planned) so we stopped at Earth and Flow to pick up some lighter bites. This was around 10am on a Thursday, and we were the only customers. It took about 45 minutes to get our food (no other customers ever came in; it didn't appear they were making any to-go orders). There were two employees that day, one who was making our order and one who was on her phone. We got: 1. Tara's Peanut Butter Heaven smoothie (banana, peanut butter, chocolate, almond milk) and the Tropical Storm smoothie (mango, pineapple, strawberry, orange juice, coconut milk, almond milk): I don't know how this is possible - maybe they were made in the same blender? - but these tasted identical. They were also liquidy. Personally, I prefer my smoothies so thick it's hard to suck through a straw. 2. the Thai wrap (almond-ginger pate, lettuce, mango, red pepper, cabbage, basil, mint, cilantro, ginger almond dipping sauce): this was okay - there was *a lot* of mint stems - but the ginger almond dipping sauce tasted purely of soy sauce - way, way too salty for me. 3. the Sun Tuna wrap (tuna salad made from sunflower seeds, not fish, combined with lemon, Bragg's amino acids, celery, pickles, and romaine lettuce): my favorite of the three! Such a unique take on a vegan tuna, but the celery was literally long uncut stalks. 4. the Sante Fe wrap (cashews, lemon, parsley, cayenne pepper, vegan mayonnaise, black beans and avocado): my partner's favorite of the three, but I found it bland, also there was no avocado and LOTS of romaine... which isn't an ingredient in this wrap. ^ I appreciated that all three wraps came on a bed of lettuce, because the wrap itself was *so* stiff and gummy in texture that we ended up dumping the interior onto the greens and eating it salad style. 5. Earthy Delights (4 Medjool dates stuffed with almond butter, cardamom, and ginger): the BEST thing we got were these stuffed dates. The combination of the rich almond butter, earthy cardamom, and spicy ginger were unlike anything I've had in recent memory. Do not miss out on these! For me, this missed the mark. But it's fantastic that an option like this exists in Rockland.
