Its location is very close to the Acadia National Park, but also within a short walk from the main shops and restaurants of Bar Harbor.
While this is a Bed and Breakfast, the BREAKFAST is amazing.
The address is:
6 High St, Bar Harbor, ME 04609

The co-owner of the B&B, Anna, used to have her own breakfast shop, the Morning Glory Cafe, that eventually became a bakery. And we were fortunate to have her make breakfast for us. Breakfast is served in the dinning area and porch area.
On our first breakfast, the first serving was a fruit cup of Maine wild blueberries, banana slices, and pineapple chunks. The main breakfast items could be ordered from a menu, or chosen from the special of the day. Today we decided to share the blueberry granola yogurt parfait and the Maine wild blueberry pancakes, both from the menu. We also had fresh orange juice and cranberry/pomegranate juice.
On the second morning, a cinnamon bun was the morning fresh baked item. The fruit serving was Maine wild blueberries with custard. For breakfast we both ordered the delicious Maine wild blueberry pancakes so that we wouldn't have to share, as they were perhaps the best blueberry pancakes we have ever had!
On the third morning, a strawberry scone was the baked item. The fruit cup consisted of strawberries and grape. For breakfast (because someone back at home said all we eat was blueberries), we got the raspberry french toast and the egg frittata with onion, mushroom, and Maine tomatoes.
On our final morning, chocolate croissants were the baked item. We were happy to have once again Maine wild blueberries and raspberry for our fruit cup. Today on our last day we had to have our all-time favorite Maine wild blueberry pancakes, and the special of the day: grilled polenta topped with 2 eggs, fresh tomato salsa and cilantro sour cream.
In the evening, Anna put out baked goods and lemonade for us. One night it was muffins, another night it was coconut puffs, and one other night it was classic chocolate chip cookies: delicious!
We stayed in Room #1, which was on the main floor of the inn, and had the biggest bathroom with a large newly renovated shower, and a nice jacuzzi tub that we did not use.
The bed linens were really soft, and the bath soap and shampoo were fancy and smelled wonderful.
We truly enjoyed our stay, and would return just for the wonderful breakfast.
We highly recommend that you check this B&B out if you decide to visit Maine.
