Overview

About This Establishment

Paddy's sits along Bar Harbor's waterfront—a lively Irish-American pub with harbor air in the mix. The Harbor Lobster Bisque is rich, creamy, with lobster bites that pop. The Wood Fired Pub Burger arrives with a brioche crown, artisanal beef blend, and stout aioli that crackles with char. The Maine Lobster Roll delivers fresh-picked lobster with lemon mayo on a toasted split roll, the brine and sweetness of the seafood cutting through the breeze.
