Mother's Kitchen

The BEST! Very fresh ingredients, tons of coffee options & vegan options. Pickup is very easily accessible as well, we have been picking up a sandwich and then packing it on our hikes. I could eat here every day :)

Love love love this place! I’m a local, and finally visited after many years. Appreciate the vegan options, although only one was available on my visit (tip: go early - they sell out.) I ordered the Empress as a salad since I’m gluten free and the GF bread is not vegan. Super yummy. Deleted with smiles, eco-conscious packaging, and a beautiful setting for an outdoor lunch.
Probably a good thing they don’t have punch cards, or some other local perk option, because I’d be coming here too often :P

Cute, intimate cafe hosted by a lovely woman who serves great food. Open in the winter and definitely not phoning it in. First time in this morning and happy to pay reasonable prices for a great experience. I got the Grand Banker (amazing) and partner had the Wild Hog- pig four ways!! His southern heart is happy. Thanks, Mother's!

Decided to stop here after reading several great reviews. Decided to go with the Bacon, Egg and dill cheese on Rye with a Maple Iced Coffee. It was incredible! Everything was cooked to perfection. The bacon was delicious! If you like Dill, you have to try the Dill Cheese. The maple in the coffee was subtle and added the right about of sweetness. Price was reasonable and the options were plentiful. I’d recommend stopping here for breakfast before exploring the rest of Maine!

What a gem! I discovered this establishment on my way to Acadia National Park on the first morning of my four-day visit to the area and fell in love with it immediately. I'm one of those people who loves a big breakfast before an all-day hike and this place delivered the goods. Can't recommend the bacon, egg, and cheese on sourdough emphatically enough. But if you don't get their day's bundt then you're missing out.

Really cool coffee/food stop on the way in/out of Bar Harbor. Stumbled upon the stop because of its very large yellow tent and the small flower garden.

The staff was very friendly, and they will bring over whatever food you ordered in the front. The latte tasted smooth and nitro was foamy. Definitely a very cool place to stop over on a long drive to Maine.

Very delicious cinnamon vanilla latte, and delightful bacon, egg, and cheese sandwich. Order ahead or it the window and wait outside for it to be ready. There is covered picnic tables, open air picnic tables, and benched all near their flower gardens. Some people were picnicing on a blanket as well.
This was a random find as I drove away from Acadia NP in Maine.

This is a small, out of the way place near Acadia National Park. It's a walk-up, eat outside place. Wonderful coffee, macaroons. Lots of locals get their morning Jolt here.

Mother's Kitchen is close to Trenton, Maine.

We visited Mother's Kitchen on vacation through coastal Maine on our way into Bar Harbor and then again on our way back out because it was just so good. Super friendly folks, great ingredients, cozy bar, and good iced coffee too.

The Grass Valley sandwich, a standout, is delicious and plant-based - my partner and I tried to make it ourselves this week. Tasty, but not as good as theirs!

As a local, I go here at least once a week! Actually, I plan to get my usual again today… The service is wonderful, the ingredients are the freshest, and the whole experience is top-notch. I wish they would be open during the winter, because even though I’m terrible at driving in the snow, I would come all the way from Southwest Harbor in a blizzard for their food! Keep it up, guys!!

These Mainers know how to make food. Really fresh ingredients, quality bread, good coffee....and Mother's Kitchen does it all at a reasonable price. Sitting outside on a nice October morning (I don't think there's indoor seating) it's a great way to start your exploration of Bar Harbor and Acadia NP. But a sandwich to go and you're all set for the day.

Another great spot if you are in the area to visit. They are kind friendly and outgoing. The food is amazing too. Please try the veggie sandwich or turkey club you will not be sorry you did. It is small but busy and then you can enjoy the food ad much as the view.

We’ve been vacationing at Acadia for several years and have tried a lot of breakfast spots… this is the best! Legit baguette-like rolls and there is a choice to add brie! Thank you for the lovely food, charming outside seating, dog parade, and corn hole.

Sandwiches and coffee were great! The ingredients seemed very fresh and locally sourced. I went for the first time today, but will definitely be back next time I'm on the island😁

Such a quaint little place. All 8 of us LOVED our sandwiches! Perfect for our hike in Acadia. Especially loved the Grand Banker, Quincy, and Dagwood. Don’t miss the chocolate chip cookies!

Our car broke down in their parking lot and while I was off dealing with a new rental the owner was overly generous in looking after my wife and infant not only during business hours but coming back to check on them even after the business was closed. I will forever be grateful. We’ve been back since for breakfast and coffee and we’re equally as impressed. Do not hesitate to go.

My only negative review is that I wish there was another MK in bar harbor!! All the vegan pastries and sandwiches are amazing, I haven’t even tried them all so I know I’ll be back. The price is very reasonable for bar harbor, if not, more affordable than sandwiches and coffees in downtown. The ingredients are fresh and people are nice. I have been obsessed with the maple oat lattes. THANK YOU for including vegan options in your menu!! And thank you to the sweet wonderful human who decorated my takeout bag with my name and flowers 🥰 made my day

Sandwiches we got were genuinely good. Chocolate chip cookie was better. Service was a bit on the slow side for a sandwich, but not unbearable. The shaded eating area and the garden made the wait not so bad. Parking wasn’t hard, which is also a plus.

We enjoyed yummy sandwiches, muffins and lattes twice here on our recent trip to Acadia. Really friendly staff. Picnic tables including some under a tent. We'll definitely be back!

If I lived here, I would come here every single day. We drove past this coffee shop so many times and when we finally stopped by to check it out, we were so surprised! It really is the best coffee on the island. From decadent maple oat nitro to black cold brew and flash iced coffee, everything was brewed to perfection! The different food options available are worth noting too! You can tell that they take care in what they make and how they make it. The people that work here are incredibly nice and make the experience even better. Thank you Mothers Kitchen for being amazing! Our only regret is not stopping by sooner!
