The property was gorgeous, the room was spacious yet still felt cozy and had the perfect view of the harbor (across the street!) The inn keepers were so warm, kind and helpful. Especially Ryan, possibly the sweetest person I've ever met. And THE BEST breakfast. They even left me a card on my birthday which was so thoughtful- I was on a solo trip for my 30th. The location was ideal for me. It is off the island so you drive about an hour to get to most of Acadia but the drive is so stunning and goes by fast. MUCH preferred to some noisy, packed hotel in Bar Harbor. Trust me on that. Plus, the night sky is way more breathtaking without all the lights from town. And it's a few minutes from the Schoodic part of the park which is perfect for catching the sunset after a long day of exploring. there are also so many perfect little local spots to eat at right up the road (but be warned, things close early around here!) Will definitely be coming back. Thanks again for being my home away from home on the best birthday adventure I could imagine.

The bar area isn't big but it was bustling maybe because of the World Cup games. The food was good, waitress was a little harried with a few big tables to cater to and we being a two top weren't much of a priority, but we tried to be understanding. Also they pan sear many of the dishes, so they have to open the front door to air it and was freezing sitting right there! ( please note not to sit by front door) We ordered the burrata app to share and I had branzino which was seasoned well. It Had a nice flavor, but it wasn't that meaty, if that makes sense... kind of picking off the bones there...Husband had the grilled swordfish and it was delish! All in all we would return... and not sit by the front door!

It was…read moreafter the morning rush, so it was slow inside - we had to wait for someone to come over from the dining area to take our orders. We each ordered large, iced coffees with caramel syrup. Even though their menu says syrup flavors are .75 cents, they rang up $1. The coffee tasted fine however there was barely any ice in the drinks! They got warm quickly. Another coffee shop in town went light on the ice as well - maybe that's a Maine thing. $15 for two iced coffees.

Coffee mugs for sale and they bring you a little coffee thermos for the table to refill/keep warm which I loved. Our server was sweet.

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.

It was early in the season so I'm sure the staff were getting adjusted but we waited very long to get drinks, get refills, place our order, and eventually receive our food. Tables around us were also experiencing very slow service, their food arriving before drinks, etc. We started to notice that people around us who arrived after we did were finishing their meals before we received our food and after finding our server and checking in, they let us know they forgot to put in our order. Slow service on busy weekends and getting adjusted as staff members happens and we definitely could've overlooked it but the staff did not apologize and none of the items were removed from our bill after waiting over an hour for the food to arrive. When it did arrive, the items were cold and we were eager to finish so we could start our day of hiking. Our past experience at 2 Cats was really great, but my partner was very disappointed with this visit and is not interested in returning.

For $13, the quality of the wings were subpar. The Fisherman's platter was a HUGE surprise. You pay extra if you want fries. We didn't want fries so we didn't have leftovers. The amount of fish, shrimp, whole belly clams and scallops was HUGE! The cole slaw is delicious. There was so much seafood that we still had to take some back with us. We live in Maine and have NEVER seen this much fried seafood without or without fries. Impressive and worth the money.
