The Nor'Easter Pound & Market Reviews

Thomas W.

“After spending hours looking for lobster during the off season, finally found one. The lobster tasted fresh, and it’s the only place that is clean and have nice decor.

This is their first time opening for the winter.

The real bar harbor ale is really refreshing!”

Daphne V.

“Amazing place! The food was delicious! the server was very polite and let us take our time to order. food came faster then expected. Nice weather too!”

Marianna S.

“This is a wonderful place with great service and fantastic staff. The food is fresh and tastes great. The lobster and the steamers were absolutely amazing.”

Darren S.

“We enjoyed every aspect of our first experience here. Adam spent a few minutes welcoming us and explaining his vision for the restaurant. The entire staff was welcoming, service was impeccable, view is spectacular and the food was as good as it gets. Our favorites were the oysters and Sutton lobster roll. Our only disappointment is that we can’t just drive from Texas on a whim – but we will return as soon as possible!”

Carrie L.

“We stayed in the area three nights, and we ate here two of them! I fell in love with the fish tacos! And those rosemary and sea salt fries are some of the best fries I’ve had. Highly recommend this spot!!”

Tiffany W.

“Great price of seafood market. Fresh lobsters, steamers, and oysters. Jacky, our super friendly and helpful staff, helped us both times. Yes, she was so nice and the seafood so fresh that we came back the second day. I’ll definitely come back for more!”

Paul S.

“Highly recommended! Tried lobster, crab, oysters, chowder, beers, cakes and coffee – everything fresh and delicious. Server was super friendly, well trained and professional. Definitely will come back once will be visiting Acadia park again!”

Lily E.

“I really love bringing the kids here. Food is perfect after sailing in the sun. Outdoor and indoor seating, with really nice servers even when they were really busy in August/high season. Kind of clutch for Northeast Harbor for a crowd that wanted lobster and bar food.”

Linda N.

“Great prices and quality at seafood market. The halibut and crab meat and lobster were delicious. Service was fantastic!! I’ll be back again and again even though it’s quite a ride from SWH. Best to the owners and staff for their hard work through these times.”
