Living in Bar Harbor during the summer, I'm always in for a real treat after dinner or on my way home when I stop by "Mount Desert Island Ice Cream". First off, the service is amazing!! They are often busy and I love the support they're getting, but when it's slow or not busy, the workers are always open to... More

If you were driving through Maine, you discovered that ice cream is a popular thing there. This was the best ice cream that we found on our trip to ME. The ice cream flavors were so true, and the taste was so incredibly creamy. We never experienced a line there, but if we did, it would be worth the wait.... More

So many choices, so creamy... The three of us each had a different ice cream; a sea salt caramel, the peanut butter, and the blueberry. Each was FANTASTIC. We went towards closing so there weren't long lines.

There are a lot of the ice cream shops in Bar Harbor, but this one is the best and most unique! Homemade and unusual flavor combinations that are so delicious! They let you sample as many flavors as you like until you find the perfect one for you! Too many yummy choices! Take your ice cream to go and enjoy... More

Among my favorites were Maine Sweet Corn with Rasberry Swirl, Sea Salt Caramel, Bay of Figs, and Butterbeer. Of course, there are always a couple off all the wall flavors such as Roasted Beet and Gorgonzola.... More

We popped by this place after reading the great reviews on TripAdvisor. We are huge ice cream fans and generally seek out the so-called "best place" wherever we travel. We were lucky to be served by the ice cream maker himself, who provided us with tons of information and anecdotes about his ice cream making and opinions on the flavours.... More

Very odd flavors, but very good quality. I had a flight (4 different flavors) and all were awesome!!

I manage an ice cream and dairy store in the midwest, and the ice cream we serve is truly top notch. So when I have ice cream somewhere else, it usually fails the taste test. But custard is something that I believe is superior to ice cream. And something that is difficult to find. But Mount Desert Ice Cream has... More
