Interesting flavors, but the ice cream is not spectacular. Treacle tart was icy. Scoops are small. There is a bench inside, but nowhere else to sit. Go to udder heaven.

I'm sorry, we were no impressed. We were told this was the BEST ice cream in the USA. They do have vey unique ice cream flavors & they kudos for that & it's all home made but the taste left a lot to be desired. There were 4 adults, we each got a different flavor (2 of us got the...

The salted caramel ice cream was incredible! All 5 of us were pleased with the flavors we ordered. Quaint atmosphere and right across from Village Green, so kids could burn off sugar buzz!

For health reasons, I can resist almost all ice cream, but not this place! It has flavors like fig and salted carmel, but vanilla is still present for purists. No visit to Bar Harbor would be complete without a visit here. I can even enjoy this place on a cold, rainy day in May. Bring a friend, and he will...

The ice cream here is soooo good! The texture and flavors are delicious. I had the nutella and it wasn't overpowering, just right. So many other flavors I wanted to try, but not enough time! I highly recommend stopping by.

If you were driving through Maine, you discovered that ice cream is a popular thing there. This was the best ice cream that we found on our trip to ME. The ice cream flavors were so true, and the taste was so incredibly creamy. We never experienced a line there, but if we did, it would be worth the wait....

So many choices, so creamy... The three of us each had a different ice cream; a sea salt caramel, the peanut butter, and the blueberry. Each was FANTASTIC. We went towards closing so there weren't long lines.

There are a lot of the ice cream shops in Bar Harbor, but this one is the best and most unique! Homemade and unusual flavor combinations that are so delicious! They let you sample as many flavors as you like until you find the perfect one for you! Too many yummy choices! Take your ice cream to go and enjoy...
