Review of Side Street Cafe

I have to join the chorus of positive reviews- Really great food and experience, and a must-visit for celiacs in Bar Harbor. Every server knew the GF process. Their menu is marked with * for GF/ GF available. The fryer is dedicated for french fries. Food came out flagged. I had the lobster mac and cheese and it was delicious! Their chowder is not GF but you will have many options.

Tip: The wait time was quite long, as they have reduced seating due to covid. You can add your name to the wait list online.
