What We Do
Located in the historic Balance Rock Inn, we are Bar Harbor’s most famous hidden gem…
The Veranda restaurant has been one of Bar Harbor's few ocean front dining locations for over thirty years. Visit us for dinner or a cocktail on the deck. We feature live music in the piano lounge on a weekly basis, check out the link below for a schedule of artists.

Gallery
It has always been our goal to create the unexpected from traditional, to create more than a just a dinner... Below are some behind the scenes pictures from our beautiful kitchen. If you would like the 'full experience' you may book a chef's table July-September.
We are proud to serve ingredients endemic to New England and the North Atlantic region. We love the rare, beautiful and unique foods of the area and work hard to bring those to you.

Check Out Our Dinner Menu
Summer is in full swing here in costal Maine. Although we had a rainy cold spring, garden produce is coming up nicely with the heat and sun over the past few weeks. Heirloom tomato and cucumber especially, along with edible flowers, chicory, lettuces and kale. Fish and shellfish, as always, are coming in fresh six days a week. We've also been getting local lamb racks, and beef short ribs.
