    Overall great food and friendly service! We started outside but it was breezy and started getting chilly so we moved inside. Ordered the whole belly clams for our appetizer and a dozen oysters. The whole bellies are fresh fried and lightly seasoned. Came with a mayo based sauce but we actually liked the cocktail sauce better with them. Oysters were fresh too. We had a couple different lobster rolls, both delicious and large chunks of lobster! Didn't care much for the baked haddock but that's me. My coworkers enjoyed it! Would definitely go back!

    Clam strips, seasoned chips and peppered calamari.

    Clam strips, seasoned chips and outdoor view were great! Peppered calamari was flavored well, but sat in a bunch of oil which took away from enjoying it. And the service was a lil ehh, my drink was empty for quite some time and after not being checked on for a while I went to find her to request a refill. I would return to try other menu items.

    Great food and service! Spent a long weekend in Bangor, Maine (first and probably last time) and figured I should have some lobster during my visit. Pepper's Landing came recommended by Chat GPT and Yelp so we checked it out earlier today. Julia was our server and was phenomenal at her job, especially considering my high maintenance kids. Super kind and fast even though she was waiting on a number of tables. We sat on the patio and enjoyed great weather and a nice view. My husband had the clam chowder and fried haddock sandwich. He's a Bostonian by birth, so his two thumbs up rating of the chowder means something. I had the lobster sauté, which surpassed my expectations, but I was also quite impressed with my side of vegetables - a healthy portion of well seasoned zucchini that was cooked perfectly. I also enjoyed a mocktail which I believe was called Ginger Fizz, and was amused by the cute presentation of the kids meals in a cardboard fishing boat. The perfect accompaniments to a New England meal! Pepper's Landing was definitely a highlight of the trip. Highly recommend!!

    Food was delicious and very dog friendly! Cocktails delish! I had the clam strips and my husband had the fried chicken! They were both excellent!

    Great local spot with a wonderful view if you sit outside. Prices are reasonable, food is excellent. Drinks were great; I hate it when there is too much simple syrup but that was not the case here. Service was great. Will have to come back for the Wednesday discount oyster deal

    We had a crab roll and a lobster roll with chips. Both rolls were yummy! Chips seemed a bit overcooked. Nice restaurant layout and an open feel. Very friendly service too.

    Pepper's landing is a mandatory stop on our yearly family Maine vacations. The baked scallops were fluffy little pillows of goodness and the maple burnt ends were a surprising addition to this dish. Our server was friendly and quick. Perfect date night spot for some seafood, and drinks. End dinner with a nice stroll next to the water.

The theme is comfort foods, so it would be optimistic to count on chef quality cuisine. Still, the offering had a few disappointments. Mind you, the pot roast was excellent, tender and tasty, and the juice (au jus?) was much better for the mashed potatoes than the canned gravy they put next to the taters. The bbq pulled pork, the mac and cheese were fine, and I didn't risk trying the dumplings, chicken fingers, French fries or chicken pot pie. The desserts, of course were also okay. The chicken broccoli Alfredo and the pineapple rice chicken dish were also okay. No doubt I would have liked it much more if it came with a few of my own comfort food favorites, such as meatballs, kielbasa and peppers/onion, pasta dishes such as spaghetti, American chop suey or lasagna - well, I could go on. The key is to check on Facebook and see what they are cooking for the buffet before you make plans.

There's plenty of outdoor seating with shade & heaters. They bring your food straight to your table for you, and they were kind enough to turn on the heaters for us without us even asking.

I honestly was impressed by their serving size and pricing. Definitely very fair pricing and the rolls are packed with meat. I was so hungry I didn't expect to be full, but their portion sizes definitely filled us all up. I don't have much experience with lobster rolls since I'm not from the Northeast, BUT I would say that these rolls were among the best I've had during my travels both on this trip and prior trips in the Northeast. It's also so convenient that they're right outside the National park so you don't even have to drive that far to find them. Great food and great pricing for being right outside a National park. If I ever come back to Acadia, I would 100% stop by here for some food again.

Didn't realize it had just opened that day - there were only two other people inside and it was very quiet. Still, staff were super friendly and welcoming. There is a fresh fish market area and the restaurant area. The fish market looked closed to us. The two people eating inside happened to be locals - who said they come at least once a week and purchase whole lobsters (we saw them come out on the tray) at market price (which was about $12/lb that day) and have them cook/boil them for $2. My husband asked to do the same and he ended up with an almost two pound lobster for $22 - unheard of for us as lobster is extremely expensive and not fresh. This one was caught like hours before he ate it. A bit challenging for him to eat - ha - as we aren't experts. But, he loved it. I chose to go with the roll and fries with an Arnold palmer with house-made lemonade. Sooo good! Best lobster I've ever had. We loved this place. Hands down the best lobster roll of my life. Delish.
