Crema's Take
“J.M. Gerrish is a rare triple threat—restaurant, bakery, and ice cream parlor—where the homemade ice cream (especially the blueberry) and fresh pastries are worth the trip alone, and the seafood-forward lunch specials deliver genuinely excellent food at reasonable prices. The cozy, family-friendly vibe and attentive service make it ideal for a leisurely breakfast or casual meal, and the outdoor seating is perfect for soaking in Bar Harbor between coffee runs. If you're in town and want satisfying comfort food made with care rather than Instagram-worthy complexity, this is the local spot regulars actually return to.”
What to expect
Classic coffee drinks done right. A slow-sit, outdoor seating spot, good for meetings. Full breakfast, pastries, and light food on the menu. Family friendly.
