Where to Eat with Kids in Bar Harbor?

Hi All,

We%26#39;re planning a trip to Bar Harbor/Acadia with our 1 and 3 year old children this summer. We wanted to know what Bar Habor restaurants are the most family friendly and food allergy friendly? My daughter has a severe peanut allergy, so we always call ahead to make sure they can handle it, but any ideas would be great. We%26#39;ll be eating on the early side, but I still want a family friendly atmosphere and good food.

We%26#39;d really appreciate any ideas.

Thanks!

Jana

Where to Eat with Kids in Bar Harbor?

We really like the West Street Cafe, located directly across from the bay, on (obviously) West Street. It is very casual. You can eat indoors which is very family-friendly, but we prefer eating at the outdoor tables on nice evenings. They have ';early bird'; specials (our fav is one that comes with chowder, a lobster, corn on the cob and blueberry pie for $20-something) that end at 6pm which would be great since you want to go early. We have a three year old daughter and love to take her here. http://www.weststreetcafe.com/

Are you big seafood fans? Another place is Beal%26#39;s in Southwest Harbor, where you can eat outdoors. It%26#39;s actually located on the pier, and kind of out of the way so it%26#39;s not usually hopping with tourists. It%26#39;s incredibly casual, the type of place where you order your food, and then they call your number. They have lobsters of every size (my husband and I have gotten them over 3 lbs once!!), steamers, fried seafood, fresh fish, as well as hamburgers and hotdogs and the like. They close early, at 8:00pm. http://bealslobster.com/

I%26#39;m sorry but I have no advice on peanut allergies. Best to call ahead, like you mentioned.

Have fun on your trip!!!
