"I almost always rely entirely on Yelp when making dining decisions. Our breakfast experience at Cafe This Way is an excellent example of why I have come to depend on fellow Yelpers... Our Bar Harbor lodgings offered a decent, if typical, free American hotel breakfast buffet. It was fine. But after a few days of it, we decided we wanted to try something different. Yelp to the rescue. Based on our search criteria, 4.5-star Cafe This Way topped the list, and off we went. As frequently reported by those who preceded us, this off-the-beaten-path, eclectic breakfast spot was well worth the trip down the alley off Mt. Desert St. I ordered the housemade Corned Beef Hash with Poached Eggs (drizzled with Hollandaise Sauce), and she ordered the Veggie Eggwhite Omelette with Cheddar. Both came with homemade sourdough toast, and we knew from reading the reviews to ask for the homemade strawberry jam. We both loved our breakfasts! So much so that we would have been back again the following day if not for our plan to be up in time for the Bar Harbor sunrise (and the need for food and coffee well before Cafe This Way's opening hour). Bonus: The decoratively displayed used books led to my partner's discovery of a new author she has since started reading. When we are next in Bar Harbor, Cafe This Way will be at the top of our breakfast dining list."
