First let me say it is a really cute coffee shop converted from a house. Coffee cozy all around. We met the owner and her daughter, Dianne and Dotty. We chatted with Dianne for around 20-30 minutes and she is a wonderful person. Very kind and social. She said we, as is everyone else, are welcome to hang out for as long as you want. High speed internet, books, puzzles and more. I had a Salted Caramel Latte with an extra shot of espresso. It was delicious! My partner had a mocha and she said it was pretty good as well! We were sad to leave as we enjoyed our short, random experience and will return if we make it this way in the future. Go say hi to them, order your favorite drink and relax! Oh... and the drinks are SUPER affordable!

However, I think we would've gladly retried our coffees elsewhere they were very much not anything we would have wanted to retry. It can get crowded quick because it's got the curb appeal and some of the other local coffee houses equally seem to struggle with consistent recipe-quality. Maybe try more of the food and report back.

Around 9 AM, I was told that they were "cleared out" but the display area was replete with whoopee pies of various types and six or so cream puffs. I bought a pistachio whoopee pie which had been dyed green with food coloring but had a nice pistachio taste. These whoopee pies are considerably larger that what you see elsewhere. The cream was good but a bit grainy in texture. I think that you will find this place hit or miss as it appears -from what they told me- that they do not have a set daily repertoire of items.

The inside had little curios for sale and bonus - they were pet friendly! We saw many cute dogs and accessories for dogs. They had local art, trinkets, cups, and more for sale. Service was good, they were working hard to crank out orders. The seating was limited, we snagged a table outside, but there are very few. It's in a very cute location on the main road - highly recommended!

Service and ambiance was good. You can also buy other small items. I had a blueberry scone and iced latte with half and half. Iced latte was excellent. Blueberry scone was good if you like cinnamon in your scone so it was good just surprised to have cinnamon and not my preference but still good. They are offering some good quality items in this more remote area of the Acadia park area.

Thank goodness because we got the opportunity to tour and buy superfresh quality for such a reasonable price (current $8.99/lbs). After spending $26 for just one lobster roll, we decided to make our own veryrolls using Chipman's Wharf's ! Actually, this experience of making our own lobster rolls was a whole lot more memorable than eating at a restaurant, especially since we are touring Maine -- all thanks to the friendly service and from Chipman's Wharf!

Steamed and sautéed seem to be the primary options. Clam chowder was creamy and clammy, steamed clams were briny and tasty. The scallop roll had five sautéed scallops which were a tad overdone but still tasty. There is one wheelchair accessible table at grade but more tables above the store or closer to the bay.

So you know what that means, right? Thats means...TONS of tourists which in turn means....YET ANOTHER place that can charge a ton for basic...and I mean BASIC a$$ food and drinks lol. I get that we are in Bar Harbor or close to Bar Harbor and Bar Harbor is bougie. However, this place is like 20 mins from town....and the food and drinks aint even all that..so there is NO need at all to be charging what they do. Cool views across the street tho. So I bought a muffin and it was decent. Was it the best? Nope. I also got the banana/strawberry smoothie. It was expensive. I was really hoping for BANANA AND....STRAWBERRY!! since that is what it says on the menu. Could I taste any strawberries? Hell no! LOL! I swear they charge you $10 for a few bananas they blend up with like 2 tiny strawberries. They do have to have the pink color in there to make you think you are getting what you ordered....because why would you want what the menu says?? Crazy thought, huh? hahahah! The smoothie was gross. Yes, bananas are good for you, they are good in a shake, but just a shake that tastes like....all banana...nah, not for me. For me, thats gross. So just keep that in mind. I get it...we are at a coffee spot that's a quick stop before you go into the park and do a ton of walking for the day, hiking, walking along the beaches in the park. However, I mean...just make what is on the menu since ya'll love to rob the tourists. Just seems unfair to me is all. Did I go back? Nnnnnope. We drove by this place every day too while in the area and on our way to the park. Just skip right on by this place and drive into Bar Harbor. Many more places to choose from AND....GET THIS!!! They make you...exactly what you order!!! So crazy! You can also find many places in town that aren't crazy overpriced despite being restaurants etc that are targeted towards the massive amounts of tourists who visit this beautiful area....what I am assuming is...all year round. I will absolutely return to this area. Bar Harbor....MAINE! is a whole other world! It's like nothing I have experienced before. It's definitely one of Americas best kept secrets. However, when I do return....I will just skip on by Acadia Coffee House. Sorry to the employees...kind of. You all were nice, but its just shady that you made me a banana smoothie when I ordered the banana/strawberry and charged me $10 ...FOR BANANAS!!! What are they at the store...barely a $1 a piece? hahaha! Thanks for reading! Just find another coffee house! You'll thank me later haha! Cheers!
