An annual must-visit to enjoy a banana split sundae with 3 flavours! Sitting down in their amazing old-school(but clean) swivel seating, everything about it is so perfect. Pro-tip, if you want more room to eat the sundae prior to melting and spilling over in the glass, ask for it in a to-go container, it will give you more time to eat it all, as it melts. It's a gem!! Always love the staff, as well! They are so extremely friendly and kind!! 10 star service!!! I remember coming here as a kid, with their penny candy shelves, it's of course been a while since that was a thing. I notice small updates every year, and it makes me thrilled to see it!! So cool always, to see the old taffy machine going! The window shopping joy is so historic, you don't really get that anywhere else!

My husband had a chocolate hot fudge sundae and I had a raspberry Oreo hot fudge sundae. The ice cream is homemade and the portions are large. I love that the sundaes are made in metal sundae dishes. It reminds me of my childhood, very nostalgic. The Goldenrod is a York landmark. I believe it has been around since 1896. It is an old fashioned restaurant, ice cream parlor and confectionery. Their saltwater taffy is the very best. We always take home 4-5 one pound boxes:2 for us and 2-3 for family and friends. My husband's favorites are the chocolate, the creamsicle and lime. Friends and family love the peanut butter, banana and vanilla. I always choose blueberry, molasses and their peanut butter. The staff is top notch:welcoming, accommodating and friendly. The Goldenrod is one of my favorite places to visit in Maine!

The iced maple latte had a great balance of sweet and strong coffee taste I really enjoyed it. My boyfriend said his cold brew was watered down and not as strong/flavorful as he preferred. The açaí bowl was a great size to split between us however was very very healthy and not sweet (if that is your thing then this is perfect for you but I prefer it to be a little sweeter). The base was inconsistent but tasty, it had a very generous portion of toppings but the granola was just plain oat and I didn't love the goji berries. If I had known the granola was going to be that plain, I would have added a peanut butter sauce on top.

We stopped at Bar Harbor Cheesecake for a unique treat. First of all the ambiance is elegant and quite different from the Dock Square area. They are a cheesecake business, but I think they serve wine as well. However all of the cheesecakes are in wine refrigerators with chill lighting so you totally feel like you are in a wine bar. Great vibe! After close examination we picked the blueberry lemon ( and a phenomenal cinnamon roll). This might be the best cheesecake I've ever had. The flavor was BURSTING with every bite! Definitely pricey, but worth it to experience.

It happens. You're…read moresitting at home, on an off peak season Sunday night, and you get a craving... the old sweet tooth kicks in, and given the day, the hour, and the time of year, you know your options to satisfy that sweet urge are going to be slim to nil. I mean, after 9pm even the grocery stores with their "meh" bakeries are closed. What I did was open Yelp!, and expand my search area a little, and I''m glad I did... because it turns out, Portland isn't the only option for foodies (or in this case, "munchies") in Maine. Because there's a little coastal town just a bit south called "Kennebunk". I know. It sounds completely made-up, but I assure you, it's a real place. So, even though I was born and raised in Maine, and I've never heard of this oddly named little town that sounds like a cross between a manufactured tourist trap and a summer warehouse facility for political dynasties... I was kind of amazed by the Yelp restaurant listings... Portland gets all the "foodie Buzz" in the press, but it looks like some of the spots in and around this Kennebunk could seriously give Portland's reputation a run for its money. I think some summer outings are in my future. But I digress... Once I filtered the returns by hitting the "Open Now" button, Bar Harbor Cheesecake popped up, front and center. They've got an hours of operation befitting a fictional business in a made-up town... 11:11am - 11:11pm...?!? C'mon... that's just a joke... it must be... open on a Sunday night... after 6pm... in April... in Maine...?!? It's TRUE. it's all True. I made the 20-some odd mile drive, expecting nothing but a "Ha Ha!" Sign taped to the window of an abandoned storefront... But what I got instead was a friendly (if somewhat lonely), helpful staffer who greeted me warmly, asked if it was my first time, and then guided me through the offerings. For the record, I went with the "Blueberry Crumble Cheesecake", and not just because it was the most expensive thing on offer, but because when you find yourself at an improbable time, in an unlikely spot, with seemingly unattainable desires, you go BIG. Indulge. Swing for fences, go for broke, break the bank, go the extra mile.... And have "Dessert for Dinner": Because you're an adult, and you deserve it. as for the cheesecake...? O. M. G. Is it the best I've had...? Dunno. But I can't remember ever having better. It was also filling enough that I only ate half and had the rest the next morning with coffee... it was still great the next day, btw. Frankly, at that point I was starting to see it as "good value for money". FWIW, there are a handful of Bar Harbor Cheesecakes sprinkled around the country, so maybe keep an eye out for them... Barring that, this one is definitely worth checking out... the only downside was I kind of had to hustle to get to a coffee place before they all closed... (FWIW: Aroma Joes in Saco was open until 11pm, so Win-Win for Me...!!!)
