After 25 miles of cycling around park loop, mt dessert ice cream was such a Great treat.There were some crazy flavors. We went with something interesting and had the butter beer flavor, which was smooth and creamy.We also had something traditional, cookie and cream. Both very delicious. We enjoyed it at the outside front garden seating.
Fresh flavors! Delicious! Beware that this is very Original ice cream parlor and when your mint ice cream isn’t served mint green colored it’s not because it’s not mint it’s because they use ACTUAL Mint and it’s delicious! Honey Baked Apple is amazing!
Best ice cream I’ve had all year. I had the baked honey apple & sour cream blueberry. My boyfriend had the salted caramel & chocolate. Hour later we were still talking about it. Definitely recommend.
This place was great! Had the Vietnamese coffee and salt honey flavors together. It was a delicious combo. I was also appreciative of the social distancing measures they put in place to make all customers feel safe.
What a cool little place! We were in Bar Harbor shopping, and asked a few of the merchants whose stores we shopped at where we should get ice-cream, and the unanimous favorite of our small sample was Mount Desert Island Ice cream - and we were not disappointed. They have adapted their venue well to a COVID (un?)friendly street facing stand with separate order/cashier and service windows, all the staff are masked and gloved, and plexiglass separated from customers, and the service is friendly and efficient.The ice cream though, is smooth, creamy, and just plain amazing. The Bay of Figs, while it didnt conjure up images of battleships hurtling toward Havana, was smooth, creamy, and full of rich fig flavor and tasty fig bites in a way that would have made Fidel Castro drool on his hefty beard. The Vegan Kulfi, was just as amazing with the authentic coarse Indian kulfi texture and flavor, and we had a hard time believing that it wasnt chock full of heavy cream, until an interrogation of the staff resulted in the understanding that the base was made of cashew, which not only was an awesome substitute for a perfect kulfi texture, but also, combined with a top secret combination of ingredients, a key component of the genuine Indian flavor.As a plus, right out front of the store across the alleyway, is a large grassy park, where you can eat, have your kids (or adult friends) make a total mess with not a care in the world, and let them run around and roll in the grass to clean up after and get their energy out. You wont be disappointed.
Best ice cream around! Went there on both visits to Bar Harbor.
Very intriguing flavours! Go with a flight for best value and the ability to sample. Our flight had an incorrect flavour, which was fine. They’re all delish.
Anticipate a wait because everyone wants to try the different flavors. But once you get your turn, take your time and enjoy yourself. If the only flavor of ice cream I was allowed to eat for the rest of my life was their kulfi flavor, I’d be ok with that.
The staff was really friendly and patient with us while we decided what to order. They have some really fun and unique flavors and we enjoyed everything we got to try!
The peanut butter ice cream was top notch
This place has a small selection of interesting flavors. Its down the street from the busiest places in Bar Harbor, and its nice and quiet.
We were there around 8 pm on a Thursday. The flavors were very interesting. We had boiled coffee, which was the most intensely flavored coffee ice cream weve ever had. We did have to wait a few minutes but we didnt mind. Single scoop is generously sized.
The ice cream is super flavorful. You could see them cooking up new batches of ice cream in the back room! I really enjoyed the salted caramel.
Ice cream here was okay. Some of the flavors are pretty unique but a couple of the times we tried it they were not that flavorful. Kind of pricey as well.
Wow best ice cream in bar harbor! I went with the boiled coffee (weird name but good) it was awesome. I will definitely be back.
Flavors are daring and delicious. Servers are willing to let you try flavors if you arent brave enough to buy it and try it. Highly recommend it. Wish there was one close to home!
Simply amazing! Very unique flavors, exceptionally well done, and reasonably priced.
About 20 different flavors and various sizes. Dont let the small storefront fool you.
The Family really enjoyed the ice cream. I was particularly fond of the sweet basil ice cream they had on the menu. This ice cream is a must have if you are in Bar Harbor. The do take credit cards, which seems to be a worry most customers had when entering the establishment.
Friendly staff. Good ice cream. Ice cream from Americas Dairyland (aka WI) is hard to beat.
MDI... going to look for it outside Acadia. Definitely a go-to if you have a sweet tooth. There are other ice-cream shops around but they dont beat MDI. Great choice. Very good.
I love their unique flavors! Locally made deliciousness!
Best ice cream ever! Dark chocolate is awesome. Staff super friendly and nice
Bar Harbor prices but the flavors are creative, the portions are big and the quality of the ice cream is fantastic. We tried the Maine sea salt caramel, local maple and pecan, and vanilla blackberry jam and crumble. Delicious!!
Very good service.Ice cream was good, not great.Left me a little disappointed, but the Grandkids loved it.
A little pricey. It was good. Limited flavors for picky eaters.
Creative ice cream flavors. Cute little shop. Friendly. Has sorbet too.
Maybe not for kids? Surprising and rich ice cream flavors. Everything from salted caramel to wasabi. If the one across the green is too busy, the second location is away from the crowds and easily walkable.
A must stop if you are in Bar Harbor. They have two locations with so many different flavors!!! Try the sea salted caramel or Nutella, they are great!
Decent ice cream. No public restroom. Very little seating. Ice cream just as good closer to town center.
Love this place! Awesome homemade ice cream.
Every once in a while I have a really great new ice cream flavor. Hello Sherry Catalana! Sherry and Cinnamon!
Been to every location in Maine. Cant get enough of this place! Fresh and delicious...best ice cream in Maine..no contest!
Phenomenal ice cream. Ive had a lot of different chocolate ice creams in my life, but this is without a doubt the best Ive had.
Funky ice cream flavors, not your everyday ice cream place, but great. Our kids loved it, we loved it!
Perfect after a day of hiking in Acadia. Delicious flavors.
Good ice cream. Good service.
The ice cream here is so good, but if you havent tried or stop by then you should do it.
Tiny store with high quality homemade ice cream, I tried the Maine sea salt caramel and that was fantastic I wish I wpuld have ordered one more scoop!
Do not like making milkshakes and lie that the ice cream is too hard or that they don’t have bananas when there is a box sitting right behind them. Will do anything to not make a milkshake.
Cute little place with great ice cream. Flavors unusual.
Excellent ice cream. We go here regularly for ice cream, when visiting the island, and love it.
Youll fall in love with flavors you cant imagine. My son got chocolate wasabi and it was fantastic. Definitely recommend trying The Dude (Big Lebowski reference) which is a White Russian in ice cream form. Also try Cereal Milk where they soak Capn Crunch in milk overnight then use the milk to make Ive cream. Yummmmm.....
The best ice cream on the island, and unique flavors you can only find there
Ice cream was ok. I tasted blueberry and chocolate. Both are ok. Blueberry ice cream is sorbe, not creamy one. if you like creamy one, try different stores
A couple of us had the Salted Caramel and they loved it!Some of us had the Dreamscicle and it was good at first, but then ended with a weird aftertaste.
Friendly staff and tasty ice cream with unusual names. We went there late in the evening and they were supposed to be closing but didnt mind having more customers.
Awesome imaginative flavors. Yay for kulfi basil and cardamom!
Its ok. Honestly Bar Harbor was a bit of a letdown for me. Rockport was more my speed. A bit too many people and touristy spots for my taste.
I loved it. They even have Kulfa flavor
AWESOME little ice cream shop with unusual flavors made in-house
Great selection and quality. Check this place out for a really great ice cream
Interesting flavors and great ice cream.
Lover this place. We go every year. Artisanal flavors and nice staff
Very good ice cream. Worth the wait.
Great service, flavors and atmosphere. They let the baby crawl around on the floor while we ate.
Was ok wouldnt get ice cream here again.
Favorite ice cream shop in Bar Harbor! I highly recommend it!!
Good ice cream and service but odd flavors
OMG, dont know where to begin. Flavors and tastes are out of this world.
Delicious! Cant wait to come back!
