FEATURING THE FINEST LOCAL INGREDIENTS PREPARED SIMPLY AND THOUGHTFULLY It’s better than an oceanfront view – it’s ON the water! Enjoy fine Maine dining as you sit in the restaurant…on the dock! One of only a few restaurants and art galleries in Maine accessible ONLY by boat. Once an operating fishing dock, its’s been converted into a restaurant and fine art gallery and has been in operation for more than 25 years! The new owners have raised the floor and expanded the bar in order to offer more seating, and even better sunset views. The only thing better than the art and the view, is the food. Come check it out!

I went the weekend they opened for the season. Overall the food was good but they had some growing pains. My favorites were the duck wings and the local oysters, but they did a decent job with everything. If you are on Little Cranberry or on a boat in the vicinity, give it a try! The photo is the view from our table.

Great spot right on the dock of Little Cranberry Island. The staff was smiling and attentive. Our waiter also said they put them up in nice housing for the summer work season which is amazing for servers and restaurant staff!!

My wife and I took a cruise out to Little Cranberry Island and visited the Islesford Dock Restaurant & Gallery. We put in at Manset, in Southwest Harbor, on Mount Desert Island. It took us about 10-15 minutes to get there, and we took about 30 minutes to come back, and drink in the sunset. We were not disappointed. Great atmosphere, super food, nice service, perfect views. Restaurant staff also assisted docking the boats. I easily got over the sticky table (from the humidity) and the rickety feel of the dock. Honestly, it was a great building and dock. A little pricey, but a lot wonderful. This is the kind of restaurant I want to run – they cook from their garden in the back of the dock, locally sourced foods, and farm/sea to table. The food was a sight to behold, and a pleasure to eat. The Cheesy Biscuits were simple dropped biscuits with some cheese in them; what really stood out here was the creative whipped salted butter, TOPPED with honey. Really delightful presentation, just a little dry. Beet Salad was next. The tangy citrus dressing matched perfectly. My observation was that if it’s a beet salad, then the beets need to be the star of the show. There simply weren’t enough beets on the greens. Maybe if you read the menu item, you’ll understand. “Beet Salad – with a tangy citrus dressing and Gorgonzola “doughnut”.” Let me ask you something – would you get this for the beets or the doughnut? I was curious about that doughnut, but I admit, I was excited about the beets. Since I had no idea what a Gorgonzola “doughnut” was, I decided to look forward to those beets. But – when I got the salad, the star of the show as that Gorgonzola “doughnut”. Center stage was this small, tasty ball of gorgonzola cheese, lightly battered and deep fried. It was amazing! Great presentation, creative palate. The citrus, beets and doughnut all worked sooo well together! I just have one thing to say about it…it needed more beets less greens. I decided to keep ordering off the Soups, Salads & Starters menu for my supper…I’m a sucker for crab cakes! “Crab Cakes – Summer greens, grapefruit & a citrus aioli.” Again! Islesford Dock Restaurant did not disappoint. The crab cakes were pan seared and had so much flavor – warmed through and through, both with spices, and with temperature. Honestly, they looked like a large scallop – so I was a little surprised at first. I had to study it out for a moment – crab cake, or scallop? It was just moist enough. Grapefruit and citrus aioli were a perfect garnish! My wife had a half rack of ribs. The ribs were a great mix of flavorful, tender and crispy. It just had a few dry spots…but that’s expected with ribs.

A chilly day to visit the island, but your clam chowder warmed us right up. The soup and cheesy bread made the trip worthwhile.

Highly recommend coming to Iselford aka Little Cranberry Island. Didn’t see any Cranberrys, but maybe because they were too small.

This place ALWAYS IS WONDERFUL. If you visit Acadia National Park or Bar Harbor… take the water shuttle to this amazing destination bar/restaurant. Great ribs colorful “action packed” salads. Maine-produced spirits and beer. Attentive staff. get there at 530!

Very nice island. Unfortunately our Restaurant experience was unsatisfactory. The food was … meh. The service was ok. The floors under the table were squeaky and bouncy. Every time a waitress rushed by (every two minutes) our plates shook and floor made scary screeching sounds. . Very loud.

Food was very good, service was ok (customers shouldn’t have to ask for refills on drinks, etc). Amazing views of the water, especially at sunset.
