Lobster rolls are my favorite food and Archies does not disappoint ever!! Definitely recommend if you want a well priced delicious lobster roll away from the chaos of Bar Harbor prices. Big open space with beautiful waterfront views, lots of indoor and outdoor seating. Handwashing sinks around the outdoor seating area for before and after your handhelds. Lobster roll with mayo is phenomenal, great portions and some of the best claw meat I have ever tasted. Service is very quick and kind. Our airbnb was a few minutes down the road from Archies and we went almost every day of our trip! Could not get enough! read more

We stumbled on Archie's hunting for an early dinner on the Quietside, about five minutes from the Wonderland trail, and it turned out to be a great find. It's a fisherman-owned shack right on the bay -- informal, friendly, and exactly the kind of unpretentious Maine spot you hope to run into. Honestly, everything we ordered was excellent, so it's hard to single out just one thing. The hot-butter lobster roll was soft, fresh, and generous -- better than the other lobster rolls we'd had on the trip (I paid a little extra for hot butter over the cold/mayo version and would do it again). The lobster empanadas were a nice surprise: crispy from being fried, and while there's some filler beyond the lobster, the meat-to-filling ratio is good and the added flavor works -- I'd order those again. The clam chowder was rich and creamy without being gluey. Bonus points for the kids: a Lego play table kept ours happily occupied, and they did simple cheese quesadillas the kids actually ate. I also had a Pulp Truck IPA from Marsh Island Brewing -- which is what we would call a "Hazy IPA" or "New England IPA" on the West Coast, but here is simply an IPA. Regardless, it was quite good. We'd would definitely eat here again. read more

Visited in mid July on a whim while camping near by. There was a line to order but moved quickly and was able to enjoy the views from a picnic table while waiting for food. It's not fancy, but it's just what a lobster place should be. We had a whole lobster, a lobster roll and onion rings. Now we have tried a lot of lobster rolls over the years but this was first time one was topped with whole claw meat. Already dreaming of a return trip well worth the wait. read more

I think this was a fabulous stop..we were headed out of town and on a early August day with some overcast and grey menacing skies, we stopped so that I could devour a 3 lb lobster by myself..something that is easy for me to do. Lee had whole belly clams. Maybe it was an off hour, there were only a handful of other people there.. We sat out back under a huge awning, and there were self serve utensils, water and a porta potty on the side. I think fairly priced. View of the sea. Lovely visit. read more

Enjoyed the BEST lobster of my life today at Archie's Lobster. This former lumber yard converted to a lobster house served large, succulent, moist chunks of lobster meat, along with corn on the cob and potato salad. What made this the best? A combination of freshness and softness. A lot of lobster, by the time you eat it, is tough and needs scads of butter to be tasty. At Archie's there is a generous amount of meat and it is still super tasty with or without butter. I also enjoyed the sumptuous cup of clam chowder. The atmosphere was superb - picnic tables with a sweeping view of the water and a funky aesthetic. I dug the graffiti on one of the walls, beckoning you to Archie's Lobster. Betsy, who waited on me, couldn't have been nicer. Heather, the co-owner, chatted with me afterward and answered my many questions about lobster production. I wish I had gotten to meet Troy, Heather's husband and the other co-owner, to tell him personally that his catch was the best I've had eating 40 years of lobster. Check this out if you're in the Bar Harbor area! read more

Wow!!! Absolutely delicious. Had a plain, no butter lobster roll and the meat was sweet and the texture was perfect. The steamed lobsters were delicious and the scenery was so calming and beautiful. Can't wait to go back! read more

We come to MDI about every 3 to 5 years. This was the first time we stumbled across Archie's, it recently opened, and we love their outdoor setup along the ocean. When coming to this area you have a lot of lobster places to choose from. This one stands out with it's picnic style setup along with some magnificent ocean views. The typical lobster meal came with corn, bread, potato salad and your choice of size of lobster (price varies per market $$$). In general, it was around $20-$35 per meal based upon lobster weight. Service was great and the views were amazing. My only knock is some places offer blueberry cake with their lobstah! read more

Friendly service. Good lobster roll. Great outdoor space to enjoy your food. Looks kid friendly to boot!

Decided to try this place, recommend by a local. They look like they are set up for crowds. Of course you can't go wrong with lobster, they offer different sized portions. The lobster bisque soup is some of the best I have ever had. read more

We stopped by Archie's during the shoulder season in early September. It was mid afternoon and there were few customers at the unusual time we stopped, but it was clear based on seating they get quite a crowd! The location is right on the water and it gives off a vibe that is laid back and suiting for a lobster pound. I ordered a lobster roll with butter and a side of fries. A bag of chips was also included. The cost for the lobster roll is rather steep and naked vs butter vs mayo pricing doesn't seem to make sense given the minimal cost per roll, but there was a generous amount of lobster for the size of the roll. The flavor was fairly mild, but it was clear it was fresh. The claws were of course a touch sweeter and packed more flavor. Overall, if you enjoy a lobster roll I recommend Archie's. read more

Incredibly cheap and big lobsters with all fixings on the shore in Bass Harbor. You have to bus your own table but it's worth it!

So we found this place driving around with our friends that wanted lobster. I wanted fish. I Ordered the fried haddock with onion rings. it was bad the fish was overcooked and hard and tasted bad. The onion rings were soggy and oily hated them. The lobster was reported to be excellent. Good job, the Shrimp basket was served with popcorn size shrimp ,not good don't get it. The size portion was good. Don't get anything but Lobster from here. 3 stars the lobster was good read more

Gem found by accident. Like we were Family !!! Drove down to another Lobster place (that was CLOSED) and found this Gem. Super nice family run Lobster Pound - with Picnic tables outside on Bass Harbor. So laid back and glad we found. The staff was awesome and very attentive. SHOUT OUT TO Kacey. She took the time and showed us how to get everything out of the Lobster. She came back a few more times to make sure we were good. SO NICE and fun to talk to. Like we were Family. There was Corn Hole and other games too. Thank you ARCHIE's - we will be back. read more

We were told this is the best lobster roll around and it did not disappoint. We got here before it opened because we were hungry but it started to get busy pretty quick. They have a lot of seating though so likely not a big issues when it's busy. Beautiful views of the water while you enjoy your lobster roll. As a midwesterner it did stand out to me that Archie's offered different style of lobster roll so you can have it how you liked we like hot butter lobster roll so we stuck with that. The chowder also hit the spot. read more

Stopped for dinner before heading to the lighthouse for the sunset. Got the fish n chips, lobster bisque and onion rings. Fish n chips were very good, with a larger serving of French fries. They don't make their own tartar sauce. Lobster bisque was some of the best I have ever had and came out scalding hot, which is a big plus in my book. Onion rings were kinda like onion rings straws and delicious. More than enough food to feed 2 of us and reasonably priced. Outdoor seating overlooking the water. read more

Loved it. Best place we ate in Maine. Great service. Immaculate vibes. We will be back!!!

Fantastic food. We had two hot Lobster rolls and a cold with Mayo, clam chowder and onion rings. Everything was superb. Crispy onion rings (the slivered kind which I like best). Clam chowder was great with tons of clams and a good amount of potatoes. The lobster rolls were gigantic. The biggest I have ever had and the same price as pretty much anyone else on the island this summer ($30). Great local beers offered (Lone Pine). We had Summer Lights (great citrus hops, but not too bitter). The rest of our group had the Blueberry Ale from Atlantic Brewing which was really good read more

This place was our first stop in Maine for lobster rolls and we were impressed. Matter a fact, I was not considering to write a review. But my decision changed after trying lobster rolls at least at five other places in Maine and after comparing, Archie's Lobster was the best, hands down. We had the hot lobster rolls which were cooked in butter. The rolls were fresh, tasty, and did not have the "too buttery" taste. It was perfect. Thanks Archie's Lobster. read more

Very casual, open air. Music was great, food was great. Orders were delivered fairly quick. Kids had lots of room to roam.

We had a lovely dinner at Archie's Lobster today. The sun was starting to set and the setting was picturesque. Fried haddock, clams, fries, onions rings, and a lobster bisque were all delicious, hot, and served with a smile. Second time and Archie's and will return for more. read more

Oh wow, this place near Bar Harbor was dreamy. Lobster rolls were expensive here, but we were told that these were about average price-wise. But flavor-wise, it looked like a whole lobster was on the roll. I've had people tell me they've never seen a lobster roll that had that much lobster on it. It was perfect. And the view alone was worth it. read more

So good! Our first butter lobster roll of the trip and it was perfect. The lobster was sweet and not chewy with tons of claw meat. Pretty large portion for the price, I thought. The lobster bisque was decadent might be the best bisque I've ever had. This place has great views and ample seating on picnic tables outside and a covered patio and a covered barn. Staff was super helpful and nice and even gave us recommendations on places to see in the area. Don't pass up Archie's! read more

I was happy to return after a delicious meal in 2021. The outdoor seating is lovely and we were able to bring our puppy. This year I got a hot buttered lobster roll packed with lobster and a side of corn. The corn was dried out, but it was only a half hour until closing so I guess that is why. I didn't protest because I was pretty full from the lobster anyways. Lobster was fresh and delicious! View is so pretty. Very friendly staff. I got a clam chowder to go, because I knew I would be hungry after the hour drive to where I was staying... it was delicious, not overly creamy like some. Can't wait to visit again. read more
