What Travellers Say
Reviews Summary
A Slice of Eden is a beloved bakery praised for its delicious bagel sandwiches and a wide array of fresh pastries. While many rave about the friendly service and cozy atmosphere, some reviews mention an unwelcoming demeanor from staff, particularly the owner, which detracts from the otherwise pleasant experience. Despite these occasional service issues, the quality of the baked goods and breakfast items keeps customers returning.
"Great coffee and bagel sandwiches! My husband and I placed a to-go order then took our haul up to Cadillac Mountain to enjoy breakfast with a view! I thought the bagel sandwiches were simply delicious. We also got a chocolate donut, chocolate croissant, and a blueberry coffee cake for the road, but I think Slice of Eden really shines more with the bagels. The baked goods were ok, the blueberry coffee cake was the best.
I had a fun conversation with the gal placing our order, and would recommend a stop for breakfast! 🩷"

"Tasty baked goods in Bar Harbor! We loved the blueberry crumble pie. We also tried two bagels, which were not the best I’ve ever had, but were flavorful and loaded with plenty of cream cheese! They have coffee as well, but they only use Torani syrups which don’t always taste great. The ladies in there were super sweet, although the atmosphere wasn’t great, as I felt like it needed some quiet music in the background or something. Either way, I enjoyed the treats."
Adelaide Miller
"Stopped in for an afternoon treat, the sweet choices were almost unlimited. We chose a slice of lemon poppy seed cake. It was delicious, as was the latte, hot with very tasty coffee. The service was friendly and asked great questions. Don’t go anywhere else; this is the place to visit. Sweet atmosphere, too!"
