I have very symptomatic celiac and was able to eat the avocado toast with gluten free bread just fine!! They were familiar with celiac and made sure to wash hands and prepare food in a separate area. Unfortunately I couldn’t try their smoothies because they use almond milk which I’m allergic to. They looked delicious. They also have some GFDF pastries which are absolutely delicious. I got the chocolate chip cookie and the muffin, and both were incredible. I would highly recommend if you’re in a bind and need somewhere safe and quick to eat!

A lot of GF options. My family had GF breakfast bowl, waffles, cookies, banana bread and avocado toast. This seems to be a healthy spot for locals with great smoothies as well. They make their own GF bread for a lot of the sandwiches.

Love this place! I get a smoothie bowl almost daily while I’m in town. They’re wonderful before going out hiking in Acadia for the day. So nutritious and filling and most importantly, delicious! Their online ordering is super easy and you can flag food allergies and even if you have celiac, like me. I’ve never gotten sick eating here.

Had smoothies here twice & some GF banana bread! Staff was super friendly, menu is clearly labeled, and that put a note of “celiac” on my order for the kitchen. Everything was delicious!

Amazing fresh food! So yummy. We told the cashier that our daughter had celiac. She said they have a decidated toaster for the gf bread! And that she would not it on the order so the kitchen staff would change their gloves. Then they kept all her food separate from the rest of our order.

We happened upon the reviews of Thrive and decided to go when we headed to Acadia for the day. My celiac son had the gf avocado toast and wasn’t sure when he first saw it but after he ate it he said it was the best tasting he had ever had. We also enjoyed some smoothies. We ended up back again on our way out of town because my son kept asking for the avocado toast.

Went to Thrive for breakfast and my family (me: celiac and two non celiacs) had a delicious breakfast and left very happy. The smoothies are so good we’ve been trying re-create them at home. I had the wild salmon toast and while the English muffin it was on was not great (one of those gf English muffins that never seems to actually toast no matter how long you try to toast it), overall the ingredients were fresh and delicious. The staff was able to clearly explain their gf procedures and they were knowledgeable about celiac. Yummy GF blueberry muffins available too! This is a nice options for a casual breakfast in Bar Harbor and outdoor seating is available.

I highly recommend this restaurant if you are looking for fresh clean eating. I had the Blissful Berry Smoothie bowl and the Soothe green juice, both were delicious! The staff were very friendly and answered my gluten free questions.

Almost everything is GF!! They have warm quinoa bowls, fresh salads, GF chips, smoothies, green drinks, juices, soups, etc. The only thing they offer that is NOT gluten free is a selection of sandwiches, which are prepared on a separate counter space in the back kitchen (they are keenly aware of cross-contamination). All freshly mixed smoothies, etc are prepared while you watch (so you can choose your mix-ins). Staff is super friendly and accommodating.
