Cool atmosphere and good food, though maybe a little expensive. We had the clam chowder, salad, Lobster Roll served hot, and a strawberry milkshake. We went towards the end of the night and our server was nice, but clearly ready to be done with the shift. For example, we did not get waters until over halfway through our meal because we also got mocktails, even though we asked for the waters first thing. Overall, not a bad experience, but I probably wouldn’t go back unless someone else really wanted to go. We sat in the balcony and I will say the view was pretty cool!

Had dinner here while visiting Bar Harbor for the first time and overall it was a good experience! Our server was nice and attentive, and food came out super quick! We got onions rings, which had an interesting thicker texture but were okay. Their fries were awesome and I loved the option to get the lobster roll with their sweet and spicy mayo! Lobster bisque was not super flavorful. Food felt a little pricey for the quality but this was still a neat restaurant to visit with cool nostalgic decor!

Really cute place! It gave off a nostalgic vibe and the food was amazing. The Seafood Alfredo was amazing. Salmon was great too. All in all this place is for people who want a nice sit down meal to enjoy with the family.

We had a brand new server and she did an excellent job. The food was delicious, especially the Jackfruit tacos and served quickly. All the retro memorabilia made us feel a little old but it added to the atmosphere. We went on a week night and there was no wait.

We walked past this place after having dinner at another restaurant. But I knew I wanted to come back the next day and I’m so glad we did. We ordered their lazy lobster which was so amazing. It was a good size and obviously super easy since they did all the hard work for us. This restaurant was really fun from the awesome waiter we had to the decor and entire vibe inside. Everything was absolutely amazing and I highly recommend everybody going there at least once for a meal.

I usually never leave reviews but this restaurant was awesome. The service was great, the food was amazing, and the atmosphere is awesome. All the vintage decor is so cool. I’m really glad to have went here and I’ll definitely go back if I’m ever down that way again.

I 10000% recommend this restaurant. The vibe is so amazing, and they have all crazy and cool things all over the place. It truly feels like your on the old classic road Route 66, but instead you are in Maine. The staff is sweet and so accommodating.
For our Food:
We ordered the Maine Poppables off their appetizer menu with are “lightly fried Allagash beer-battered cheese curds, served with our sweet and tangy sauce.” I cannot tell you enough how tasty these cheese curds were. We almost ordered a second batch!
For my main, I ordered the Blue Moon Burger, which is “our homemade blueberry compote, Boursin cheese, and applewood smoked bacon. I ordered a side of broccoli instead of French fries. It was perfectly cooked to medium rare (my liking), and the broccoli was tasty. The blurry “jam” on the burger gave it such a twist, and it was perfect! The kitchen actually gave me fries and when I alerted our server, she ran downstairs and told the kitchen to read the ticket, and got my my broccoli. Very sweet.
My partner had the dead end burger which is an “8-oz burger topped with cheddar and Swiss cheese, applewood smoked bacon, coleslaw, onion rings, lettuce, tomato and our Bam sauce. Also very tasty.
100% will return next time we are in the area.
