Jordan's Restaurant

This unpretentious breakfast-and-lunch joint has been dishing up filling fare since 1976, and offers a glimpse of the old Bar Harbor. It's a popular haunt of local working folks and retirees, but staff is also genuinely friendly to tourists. Diners can settle into one of the pine booths or at a laminated table and order off the placemat menu, choosing from basic fare such as grilled cheese with tomato and a slight but serviceable hamburger. The soups and chowders are all homemade. Breakfast is the specialty here, with a broad selection of three-egg omelets, along with muffins and locally famous pancakes made with wild Maine blueberries. With its atmosphere of "seniors at coffee klatch" and its rock-bottom prices, this is not a gourmet experience, but fans of Americana and dinerlike places might enjoy it.
