Project Social Kitchen & Bar

Delicious tapas in a relaxed, unique setting. Good cocktail, wine and beer list - rotating IPA from Maine Brewing. Tapas menu was diverse, fresh and well prepared. The smoked trout was the highlight! Outdoor dining patio is perfect for summer evenings with plenty of shade and a small pond. Service was attentive and pleasant. Dog friendly too! Dietary restrictions: No gluten free bread but they offered cucumbers for the Mediterranean dip which was perfect.

Perfect welcome to Bar Harbor! We found this place after we checked in at a nearby hotel, their cocktails were a prelude to our next couple of days here, sweet, perfect and a hint of adventure. Go early for their crab cakes as they do sell out! Beautiful space and great service. Try everything on the menu, you wont be disappointed!

Outstanding. Skip the touristy places by the water. This beautiful garden spot just off Main St has great service and delicious food. Small plates that include mussels, scallops, and duck tacos. There was nothing we didn’t love. Great drinks, too.

A great find for cocktails in Bar Harbor! We really enjoyed the outdoor game space and the unique menu of cocktail offerings! The cocktails weren’t super large, but they definitely had bite and were mixed very well. Definitely recommend for a more laid back place to get great drinks.

Amazing experience from start to finish!! We stumbled upon Project Social when we realized the place we planned to go was closed. What a happy accident!! Hostess and servers were extremely nice and welcoming. We didn’t have a reservation but they sat us immediately during Sunday brunch time. They also gave us a perfect spot by the pond/fountains. Food and drinks were AMAZING! Really unique and well thought out flavors! The chef definitely know what they are doing.

If you are a foodie, and anywhere near Bar Harbor, don't walk...run to Project Social. On vacation for 4 days and ate here twice. Dinner was exceptional. Highly recommend the duck tacos and beef skewers, although everything on the menu is wonderful. As for brunch, it was a very hard choice so we all shared dishes. The hash with smoked brisket, oysters Rockefeller and pain perdu bread pudding French toast were amazing. Ask to meet head chef Brian Weber. He and the kitchen staff are a talented crew, but Brian is a fantastic host with quick wit. Drinks were outstanding too.

Tasty pita and dip trio, cheesy eggs, brie and sausage plate for brunch. Delicious drinks- tequila with mini high life combo and a vodka seltzer. I would liked to have seen more vegetarian options. Very flavorful foods, cozy and upbeat indoor seating area by bar. Also lots of outdoor seating for warmer weather.

Beautiful atmosphere, delicious food and drinks. Service was great and fast. Small menu and pricey but all amazing and worth it. Recommend the watermelon salad & duck tacos! We will be back.

Ushering in a new era of bar-ougie haba, not your average lobster pound. Nice small plates, some intensity of flavor maybe a little much sometimes?. We enjoyed the kale/Brussel salad mountain, had an intense miso flavor behind it. Nice trio dip, maybe need a bit more dip-to-pita ratio. Delicious duck tacos, and well made whiskey sour with lots of good cocktail options. Our dog also was endlessly fascinated by leaves, what he thought to be fishing, coasting across the small pond. Endless entertainment for him and all patrons watching him freak. Very nice wait staff, felt like we could have been in many legit dining towns across America.

Project Social was a very lovely experience from start to finish. The hostess were friendly and our server was amazing. The food and drinks were delicious as well. Only complaint I have is the fact they charged $44 for the teeniest lobster rolls. Everywhere else in town that I’ve seen so far charged less than $30 for larger lobster rolls. Other than that, highly recommend Project Social!
