We are locals and Quietside Snacks is hands down our favorite lunch spot. We have never had a bad experience. The owners are always so kind, and even have a program where you can purchase lunch for someone in need. Everything on the menu is delicious, but the fries are out of this world! read more

Our group of six found this place after a morning hike near Bass Harbor Lighthouse. We can all add our 5 stars to our review! Delicious! Great fries as well. I had The Traveler with their Snack Sauce. Nice and spicy. Fries were hot and tasty. Played some Badminton while we waited. It was worth the wait. We left with full stomachs and glad we searched this place out! read more

Sooooo yummy! I got a bacon butter smash burger and it was so good. I was very impressed at how the burger was simultaneously so juicy, but not soggy at all. They must have packaged it really well in the paper that they use. I loved the fries too. The fries had really good salt on them (the chunky kind). Prices are pretty good for Acadia. I spent a little over $20 for a big burger (two patties) and fries (generous portion) and tip. Ambiance is fun- this is a permanent food truck with outdoor seating. There was even a little shade. Service was good too! The employees seemed fun and chill. read more

Great little restaurant! Smashburger was excellent and the classic chicken sandwich to die for. Great staff, friendly, and courteous. I'll come back here anytime! read more

Great friendly service in a really cute airstream, the burgers were great! We will be back!

This is actually a food truck in an airstream trailer on the side of the road. Totally cute! Picnic tables, and the road isn't very busy. We got a Classic chicken sandwich, and a hot dog and fries. Both tasted great. It took maybe 10 minutes to get our food. Really good food and enjoyable experience. And the young lady who waited on us was really a sweetheart. read more

An unassuming patch on the side of the road casted with the shimmering presence of an airstream trailer, ordering off the whiteboard menu at this no-frills stop, made for a really great Hot Honey Chèvre sandwich, was a mouth melting bed of sprouts pillowed with some cucumber slices lies a beautiful golden brown fried chicken thigh with a creamy chèvre on top. Drizzled in siracha honey glaze. Quite tasty and a great surprise. The smash burger was juicy and flavorful. It was eaten before I could take a photo of it. read more

They were amazing with reassuring me there wouldn't be any cross contaminations with my allergies!! And the food was bomb

This is a food truck on a permanent lot with some tables. The menu consists of fried chicken sandwiches and burgers. Coleslaw is the only vegetable available (aside from fries). Generally I think less items on a menu is a good thing, and the classic and truff chicken sandwiches were both some of a best we've ever had. The fries are good if a little heavy on salt for our taste (in pretty sure they're made to order so I'd just ask for less next time). They deliver food in neat to-go boxes that are very convenient in the car, and the wait is not bad at all at 15 minutes. read more

Great spot if you need a break from the seafood. Bacon Butter Smash burger was fantastic. read more

Quietside Snacks - Updated menu July 2024 - Burgers Near Me - Tremont, Maine

Very good burger, friendly staff and a nice quiet location. Great spot to get something other than seafood while visiting Acadia.

You wouldn't believe that one of the best foods you can eat around Acadia national park will be at Quietside Snacks. As soon as you enter, you are immediately met with memories of childhoods past with smells of bbq and campfire smoke. Both a straight forward and "simple" menu are always a green flag for me. We ordered the spicy chicken sandwich, the classic cheeseburger, fries, and mozzarella sticks. Everything, another green flag, was not oily, rather it was packed with great flavors. The food quality is on par with, if not better than most of the well known places in Bar Harbor. Seriously if you want great food without the hassle of lines and price gauging. Go here. read more

What an unexpected surprise! The only food truck we've seen on the island and it's delicious! Set in a vintage Airstream, the menu is not seafood heavy like everywhere else (as a vegetarian that makes me super excited!) I had the grilled cheese with red pepper jelly and apples and it was great, hubs had the fried chicken tacos which he loved. And the French fries were some of the best I've had! And I like a good French fry... if you are in Quietside (or lucky enough to stay on this side of the island) this is a perfect lunch spot. There are even a bunch of picnic tables so you can enjoy a leisurely lunch on a nice day. read more

Outstanding food and setting! Highly recommend! Best burger I've had in a while! Picnic tables with shade or sun. Adding this to my must do MDI list. read more

We ate here a couple times in 2021 and I know we had chicken and waffles because I still think about how delicious they were! I know my husband had the tacos. We ate here twice in a week because it was so good. Driving by this year, I didn't have time to stop but I saw they expanded their seating area and it looks so inviting and lovely. I couldn't stop this week but cannot wait to visit in August. The "order online" feature is a nice amenity and the options look so good this year! Reading the reviews, I am now drooling and trying to figure out if I can visit in July instead of waiting for August!!! read more

So good! Best burgers on the island. Grassy lawn with clean picnic tables and friendly staff. Went in fall of 2024 and will be back next time we visit. read more

Ordered smash burger and chicken sandwiches. The burger had an egg, cheese, bacon and a spicy sauce which was a tad too hot for me, but the burger was delicious. Chicken was really good really good. I wish the prices were listed.. Smaller menu on Sat and Sunday. Overall making elevated comfort food. Give them a try! read more

Absolutely a gem of a 'restaurant'. Great food! Great service! Great roadside picnic ambiance! Highly recommend read more

The definition of what a smash burger should be! Plus live music on a Friday night. You can't beat it. Don't pass up this awesome food truck/Airstream trailer. read more

Last minute decision to go...they were getting ready to close. The outdoor dining experience was a little rough but the burgers, fries and mozzarella sticks were excellent! read more

Adorable little airstream trailer serving up great bar food. We had the mac and cheese with fried chicken breast (chicken was seasoned well and fried to perfection) and the burger (two griddled patties with plenty of cheese and lots of flavor). We forgot to order the fries until we received our food, so we dashed back to fix the error. The fries were worth the extra wait - handcut and salty. Pro tip: Food takes about 20 minutes since everything is made fresh, but you can order online and skip the wait! read more

An amazing food truck with a cute and cozy ambiance! The hot honey chevre was really good, packed and flavorful. The $5 hot dog was also great, and jalapeño poppers were indeed popping. The service was also amazing, they were so friendly and nice! I would love to see this place more booming we'd come back from New Jersey for more! read more

Next-level chicken sandwiches and burgers, incredible fries as well. Highly recommended. I love that they are open for a good portion of the year unlike so many places on the island. read more

Food is delicious! Service was excellent! Took the food back to our campsite, but they do have a good amount of outdoor seating for the food truck. 5 out of 5 stars. Would go again. read more

Even though they are working from a limited menu due to staffing shortages, the food was still delicious. We got the fried chicken sandwich, smash burger, and veggie burger. The fried chicken was great, and the smash burger was tasty. The veggie burger was only ok but the toppings and glaze made up for the pre-made patty. Heads up on the shortage in staffing that the food took a bit to come out, but they were doing the best with what they had. read more

One word. Astounding. I'm not even finished with my sandwich and I had to write a review. I have wanted to stop here so many times and today was the perfect day. Best chicken sandwich ever! Fries were crisp, plentiful maybe too plentiful! Sandwich was on a really nice bun, great pickles, cheese and some slaw. Wow. My biggest complaint: too big a portion for little me but guess what ate the whole thing. Do not miss this sweet food truck with a lovely side yard and picnic tables. Best sandwich in the island, bar none. Love read more

Nice staff. Fun environment. Working hard and making good food. They serve burgers, chicken sandwiches, and seafood sometimes. There are veggies options too. read more

Don't let the number of reviews fool you. My wife and I had a chicken sandwich and our friends had a burger and fries. It was delicious. The folks making the food and serving it are so friendly. I don't leave reviews very often, but this one deserved my review. read more

This is a food truck with a limited menu but everything is made with care and with high quality ingredients. Outstanding smash burgers, fries, and the popular fried chicken sandwich. Best take out on the island. read more

I loved the Bacon Butter Smash Burger , although the butter was a little faint. I also liked the dining area I was in while I was waiting, but I ate in the car. read more

We stopped here for lunch after visiting the Bass Harbor Head Lighthouse and had an amazing lunch. The shrimp taco was by far the best I've ever had and it was HUGE; almost the size of a burrito. My wife loved her fried chicken sandwich and my kids devoured their chicken fingers that were a special the day we visited. I don't know what they do to their french fries but they were delicious; no ketchup needed. We visit MDI in April every year and are so excited to have found this wonderful spot that is open this time of year; we will definitely be returning to Quietside Snacks our next trip. read more

Soooo good. We ordered three different tacos and fries. One is enough for one person. They were huge! Basically an opened face burrito. They were sold out of lobster rolls but it was closer to closing time. And honestly it's totally fine bc what we got instead was amazing. read more

We had the jerk pork tacos with a bit of cheese and cole slaw on a toasted tortilla. The owner invented this and it was really tasty. Not real hot like jerk can be, in case you're concerned. I notice that the page for this small resto says "many vegetarian options". There ARE vegetarian options, but NOT MANY. It is mainly seafood and meat, along with some sides. There is grilled cheese, too, untried by me. read more

5 of us stopped here on a Wednesday evening after dark. We were having trouble finding a restaurant on that side of the island that was still open in late October. We stopped here as what we thought was a last resort but it was delicious! We had the smash burgers because they were out of chicken for the night. They were all great. Such a great spot! The people working said they are open all year so it is one place that you can count on!! read more

If I lived near here I would be going several times a week. Homemade food, thoughtfully made, executed at a high level. We went on the last day of our trip and both agreed we would have come every day if it was an option. You know when you order something so good that you want to try everything else on the menu? When a single bite can make you trust a restaurant to do other things just as well? You don't spend time making crispy cheese on your smashburger because it's easy, or because the burger wouldn't be good otherwise. You do it because you care. Because that's how you'd make it for a friend. This probably sounds dramatic, but after all of the artificial touristy stuff thrown around on the Island, this felt genuine and special. read more
