Restaurants near West Gouldsboro Union Church

The team at Havanna is doing what they always do- delivering a delicious meal, beautifully served in a charming setting.

Good, but there is room for improvement. Cocktails were perfect! Igloos were clean, private, quiet, and well lit. The ambiance is always wonderful at Kanu, which is why we keep going back. Plus, we typically enjoy everything we order- this time around the appetizers hit it out of the park. The meatballs and the blush salad were delicious. No need to change those recipes! The downside with the food was that the entrees weren’t as good as they typically are, however, we will give it another shot. We know the kitchen works hard at this restaurant. One more downside…Service was incredibly slow, however understandable since it was a Saturday night. My party had been sitting for over 40 minutes before I had gotten up and asked for water. The server was aware of how slow things were moving, so she comped the cocktails and also removed half the price for the appetizers. And for this, even though our bill was lowered, we tipped appropriately to what the total amount would have been. We understand that a restaurant operates as a machine and it’s not always the servers who slow things down. In the end, we will continue to dine at Kanu, but hope this feedback helps. Thanks for a memorable night with an understanding waitstaff!

The perfect wintery meal on a cold night! From the festive eggnog and the sharply delicious vinaigrette on the house salad, to the rich short ribs and ice cream- it was just perfect. So grateful to have a dependably good restaurant open to celebrate with friends in the holiday season!

The Reading Room is classic white linen high class dining at its best!! Menu, food, service & ambience all first rate! Our server was very professional (can’t recall her name) & very menu knowledgeable - only issue was that the noise level made it difficult to have a good conversation! We’ve been there many times over the years & it is always the highlight of our visits to Bar Harbor!!

It took a month to get in and it was worth it. I had frequented the pond house when I was young (35 yrs ago) and I had been wanting to get back. It was as good as I remember. Staff got us in earlier than our reservation time, waitstaff were friendly and welcoming and the popovers and jam are the best I’ve had! Definitely worth the visit/experience.
