Galyn's in Bar Harbor offers a mixed experience, with some diners expressing disappointment in the food quality and service, while others absolutely rave about their meal. Some highlight the excellent lobster bisque and the beautiful view of the water, while others criticize dishes like overcooked linguine and cold food. Despite mixed reviews, many customers appreciate the knowledgeable staff, charming decor, and gluten-free options available. The restaurant seems to be a hit or miss depending on individual experiences, with some visitors declaring it the best dining experience of their Acadia trip, while others find it overrated.
We were quickly seated at the bar on a busy night. The service was friendly and efficient, despite the bartender being busy with other customers. The oysters and burrata appetizers were delicious, and the salmon and steak with lobster tail entrees were excellent. The desserts were a highlight of the meal. Overall, a great spot in a crowded area of town. Service, food, and atmosphere all receive a perfect 5 rating.
This is our favorite lunch spot in bar harbor, for years. We like to sit on the balcony and their seafood soups are the best. They also have several wonderful sandwiches (lobster roll and fish sandwich! and appetizer plates (squash cakes and crab cakes . We will typically eat here 2-3 times during a one week visit.

The food, drinks, and service were all incredible! We ordered a beer and a (delicious! blueberry margarita, Haddock special, and the seafood linguini. All dishes came out quickly and tasted amazing! For dessert we finished up with the blueberry apple crumble and the cappuccino sundae. Wonderful!! Jennifer, our waitress was incredible!
Great place to stop for lunch, drinks, or both! The gentleman seating everyone was friendly. Our waitress was attentive and personable. Everything we had tasted great! The fresh, warm bread and olive oil is an awesome starter. The salad and house madedressing is also a great choice. The Bar Harbor Burger was cooked perfectly. Port wine was a perfect finish! If there is noroom outside to sit, I recommend upstairs near the window.
Had an excellent dinner at Galyn's. Brian was our server. He was very attentive and personable. Meal was excellent. Had the Maine combination which included 2 small lobster tails with melted butter, 2 scallops with a sauce (pesto-type) that wasamazing. And one of the best crab cakes I have ever had with a sauce that was also very very good. Shrimp cocktail for anappetizer. Shrimp were so large and tender. Dessert was the blueberry/apple crisp with vanilla ice cream. A fantastic meal andexcellent service
