“You're going here for cocktails. Do they serve beer? Yes... But that's like ordering grilled cheese at a seafood place (nothing wrong with the beer selection though). Understand this, the place is busier than it looks and making great cocktails is an art. This isn't a beer slinging joint where a order is compete in 60 seconds. Be patient. You're likely on vacation anyway. If you want to see a professional mixologist/bartender/artist, go to the Cottage Street Pub. See Cassidy (dark hair, teal highlights). Enjoy her professionalism and appropriate amount of sass. Cassidy mixed up FANTASTIC cocktails for us Monday through Thursday (July 17-20,-2023) (yeah, you read that correctly, we went four nights in a row). Not only did she mix the cocktails, but she mixed up great tunes the entire time as well. Read all that again, don't waste your time on beer here, get the cocktails. Learn the bartender's name, it helps to grab their attention when they are herding 100 cats. Hope you get Cassidy as your professional bartender! I'm sure the others are great, too.“
“Bar harbour is a dead place during the winter (it was first day of March however). Have to visit village information center to find out that only one place is regulary working - it's Dog&Pony tavern. And two more are sometimes opened. With expectations for lobster roll of course we were dissapointed but ate decent food, cesar's salad was really good.“
“Nice little find in Bar Harbor! Small, cozy restaurant with very nice, friendly staff. If you are looking for an extensive menu - no. They have Oysters and Pretzels. Both are delicious! I was served the last dozen oysters of the season last night! Lucky me! Only place open until 1 am in bar harbor.. not that I am ever up that late but in case you want a late night beverage that is your place.“
