Crema's Take

Mother's Kitchen is a hidden gem tucked away from Bar Harbor's tourist crowds, offering espresso-focused specialty coffee paired with genuinely exceptional breakfast sandwiches that visitors rave about as some of the best they've ever had. The outdoor picnic table setup under shade sails creates an unhurried, relaxed atmosphere perfect for lingering with locals and fellow travelers alike, while the knowledgeable staff and quality pastries make it worth seeking out even if you're just passing through Acadia. This is the kind of place that turns a casual breakfast stop into a memorable highlight of your trip.

My husband and I found this little gem while we were on vacation and are so happy we did. I always like to find the unique coffee spots that are off the beaten path or not where all of the tourists go and this was it. In fact we went two days back to back. The first visit we did lattes and breakfast sandwiches. The breakfast sandwich although simple was delicious. My latte was even better! The staff is the most friendly and part of the reason we wanted to go back. Whenever we come back to Bar Harbor we will definitely make our way back here!

*Google Master Review Gourmet authentic roadside-stand type of place with picnic tables & relaxing outdoor experience. Coffees, baked goods, and high-quality handheld breakfast sandwiches. Warm and inviting staff with easy-access parking.

Incredible staff and incredible food. Simply went because our hotel didn’t have breakfast - and it’s safe to say that this was one of the best breakfast sandwiches I’ve had in my life, and it was also a reasonable price. They also have Tandem coffee, which is delicious! Despite longer lines on a Saturday, they were efficient and fast! Also, there is no indoor seating, just outdoor picnic tables. Thankfully for us, both days were perfect weather! HIGHLY recommend this place!!

BEST PLACE FOR COFFEE AND SANDWICHES ❤️ The coffee both days, was delicious. Living over a decade in Europe, it’s a struggle to find good coffee in the US. But this place made my stay in Acadia amazing. The sandwiches were worth it, we tried different ones both days and all delicious. Cannot go wrong with this place. We also visited their neighboring shop where they are about to open in this great space after they had to downsize after COVID. More power to this place with their view to sustainable delicious food and coffee. Cannot wait to visit the new place next time I am in the area.

A neat little restaurant off the beaten path. Great food & fast service. No indoor seating, there are picnic tables & benches under some sunshade sails - makes for a nice atmosphere! There's also a flea market on the adjacent lot to browse through while waiting for your order.
