Bar Harbor is located in the Hyatt Place Hotel. Believe the restaurant is used for the hotel breakfast area as well. Eric greeted us at the entrance and was able to seat us prior to our reservation. He was very courteous and accommodating. Maurice was our waiter and he also was friendly and attentive. The restaurant was very busy and the staff earned their pay this evening. All the team appeared to help each other out. The food came out fast and was hot, obviously right off the grill. We decided on sandwiches and were pleased. One of us tried a mixed drink and the other a soft drink (Pepsi products served here). The desserts were the best.

We visited for brunch after MagFest. The service was prompt and courteous, the food was pretty great, and we were in a room in the back so it was calm and quiet. Only sad part was they were out of Coffee because apparently someone didn't order enough inventory. Truly shocked a restaurant can be sold out of coffee on Sunday at 1:30pm. Otherwise it was a great time.
