Free tour, free beer tasting glass, and free delicious brews. Fun fact: bet you didn't know this location is an R&D facility designed for cooking up new flavors.
Espresso coffee with milk. Nothing around compares to the quality of this coffee. Their barista are awesome and take great pride in their craft.
If you can't make it to a Red Sox game, do the tour. There is a lot of interesting history. It's cool that it has been preserved so well. It's awesome to get to sit at the top of the green monster.
Best cup of coffee in Portland - also, the space itself is incredible, perfectly lit from outside.
Spectacular views of Maine's oldest lighthouse. Do not miss if you are visiting Portland or the surrounding area.
Make sure to book the free tour in advance! It includes a free tasting of 5 of their beers while learning a bit of their history. Free flights are available w/o the tour also.
Perhaps the best beer bar in Maine (which says a lot!). Tap-list is unreal - so well balanced between quality locals and obscure, though well curated, imports.
Try to get here ~1hr before sunset so that you can scope out a good location for your camera outpost before all the other tourists arrive.
Catch a sunset or sunrise. You can drive to the top and hike down a bit to catch the beautiful views of the park. Plenty of parking on top. Really a gem.
Maine is known for blueberries and lobsters. Want to taste the best of both worlds? Go splitsies on the famous blueberry pancakes and the lobster omelette. Both dishes are amazing!
Favorite lobster pound of our trip to MDI, even though it's a decent drive from Bar Harbor. Thurston's has a 2-floor screened-in dining area right on the water! And even a small bar with local brews.
I don't recommend doing this hike in flip flops. (Let's just say we had a bit of a struggle on the rock scramble.)
