Cruised to Bar Harbor, first visit, expecting fabulous experience of a lobster roll. The $34.00 special of lobster roll, french fries, clam chowder, was anything but special. Very small serving of Clam chowder was delivered to our table lukewarm and tasted no better than some off the shelf canned variety. I sent it back to the kitchen. The fries were not crispy, delicious or hot. Soggy. And lukewarm. Mediocre to poor. I’m certain these were frozen commercial low quality fries and not fresh cut. I could make them better in our home oven. The chopped lobster pieces were laid atop a basic unimaginative, tasteless white-bread bun. The lobster was of such small quantity it was disappointing and the taste was uninspiring. A very small cup of average coleslaw was included. The blueberry pie crust was good. The blueberry filling was good. The platter was very overpriced - a sandwich and soup and fries and pie $34.00. Never again folks.

The Thirsty Whale Tavern

Reviewed By 2TravelLuvers

This wasn't our first choice (it was the Side Street Cafe's first day closed for the season). But this place was suggested by someone closing the Side Street Cafe. We were not disappointed. My wife and our youngest started with the garlic bread. My wife had the blackened fish sandwich with fries. I had the fried haddock sandwich with onion rings. Our daughter had a garden salad. Everything was good.

Arrived on a Monday evening at 6:30 PM. No one at the entrance,we proceeded into a room where 4 people were sitting. They told us they were waiting to be seated. We waited as well, for 10 minutes. Another couple had also joined the wait. Finally a woman came out and stared at us. One of the women from the first group said “we are a party of four”. The response? The woman with the pub said “I understand that. I’m trying to figure out how many people we have here” and stormed out. Very rude. My wife and I looked at each other and decided they neither wanted nor deserved our business. We chose this place based on TripAdvisor, so I thought it important to know what the service is like. Laughably bad. Literally angry with customers because they were waiting to be seated.Hello SJG1956,I am sorry you did not have a good experience entering the Friar! We do try to greet everyone who comes in and the party of 4 who were waiting on the couch were greeted by one of our employees and told we would be getting a table for them shortly. When another employee exited the kitchen and was delivering food to a table they were blocked by you and was demanded "how long is the wait!" The woman responded "I understand you are waiting but when we figure out who and how many we have first you we will know more, I need to deliver this food. " and she delivered the food she was holding to the appropriate table. She certainly did not storm out, she was just trying to deliver hot food to a table. When the food was dropped off she returned to the lounge to assess who and how many were waiting, you had already left. We have no control over how busy we become and at what time during the dinner service, you did come in when at the height of the rush and since we only have 12 tables and 7 are for parties of two there can be a wait. Patience and understanding are always appreciated. Hopefully you will give our food a try in the future :)

We loved Side Street Cafe. The menu is large and offers a lot of options. The french fries are AMAZING. I also really enjoyed their Emmy sandwich (added chicken) for a healthier lunch option. Great place to go after a long day hiking in Acadia.

Everything I had here during my few days in Bar Harbor was excellent. The wild blueberry pie is homemade, and it is wonderful, without too much sugar. The Lobster Rolls were great, and the staff really interacts with the customers, giving lessons on how to open lobsters correctly, asking how the food is, even offering to go back downstairs for you if you want to order something else. This is a don't-miss in a town I found overall to be too crowded and full of kitschy touristy items.

joey was most gracious to my wife and I who were at MDI for a wedding. Needed to watch a Thursday night game that no one else would want to see. He hooked us up with our own screen. The food was OK...bar food. Everyone was friendly and the crowd kept changing over the three hours we were there. Thanks Joey!

Tucked away in the back of the municipal parking lot off the main drag, Coda is a relatively new offering in Southwest. Once we got over the unpleasant welcome from a tired?/having a bad day?/grumpy hostess who actually rolled her eyes at the pleasant guests at a nearby table(but came around by the end of the night and finally wished us a pleasant good evening), we enjoyed the food, Our waitress was friendly and wonderful. The goat cheese fritters were good but didn't have enough goat cheese in them--tasted a bit like donuts with a bit of cheese in the middle. We made up our own drinks and they were good and so was the bartender's choice of the day. The size of the plates is a bit weird --they are not full sized entrees and they are not necessarily appetizers either--the menu is sort of a fish-mash of varying sized tapas-like dishes. Crab cakes and lobster and grits were really tasty; butter seared halibut was delicious, and the beef sliders were good.
