Locally owned and operated for over thirty years, the Chart Room Restaurant offers an array of fresh seafood, steaks and more. Try the Macadamia Nut Crusted Halibut while enjoying the expansive views of Frenchman's Bay in Hulls Cove. Nestled along the water's edge just two miles from the heart of Bar Harbor, the Chart Room is a classic Maine seafood dining experience that is a favorite of visitors and locals alike! With a full bar, plenty of outdoor seating, cozy tables for two as well as space for your large group gathering, the Chart Room has it all. Enjoy local oysters and cocktails while seated at our new pier, or dine inside on a 12oz prime rib while overlooking the changing tide. We take a limited amount of reservations so that way walk in guests are still able to join us. Our last lunch and dinner of the season will be on October 27th.

    Service was outstanding. Food was good. I had a great French Onion Soup. Baked potato with sour cream and butter was tasty.

    We were hoping to have a drink at the bar before our reservation but apparently In the cooler months they seat people at the bar for dinner. The hostess was kind in explaining. Once we were seated for our reservation, the servers were friendly, attentive, and prompt. We ordered the mussels and twin lobsters which were both hot and delicious. We didn’t try any of the more innovative dishes and I think we made the right call.

    With a high recommendation from a local business person, Service was great, but unfortunately the food was underwhelming. My husband had fish n chips and said it was bland. I had the seafood linguini, and while the sauce as flavorful, sadly the seafood (scallops, baby shrimp) appeared to be boiled with no color or flavor.
