About Us

Looking for the best Bar Harbor lobster? Then, welcome to Geddy’s – a favorite local spot for 50 years! Geddy’s offers a true taste of New England coastal cuisine in downtown Bar Harbor, Maine – overlooking the waterfront!

Once a dingy and dangerous seaside saloon, Gerry “Geddy” Mitchell bought the rundown bar in 1974. He built the place into a world-famous destination with entertainers, including Bonnie Raitt, Wynton Marsalis, Taj Mahal, Pure Prairie League, Arlo Guthrie, Livingston Taylor, and Los Lobos.

In 1987, Arthur and Heather purchased Geddy’s, transforming the bar into the best restaurant in Bar Harbor, even the state of Maine. No trip to Bar Harbor is complete without a stop at this famous spot for lobster & lobster rolls!

Geddy’s offers a fun and relaxed atmosphere with friendly service – overlooking the harbor. The restaurant has a local vibe with historical photographs and memorabilia of old Bar Harbor lining the walls. The iconic circular bar is conducive to friendly conversations and to watching sports games. Once the seediest part of the saloon, the basement is now the bright and cheery “Geddy’s Down-Under,” selling Geddy’s gear, unique local gifts & cool stuff. Right next door is the newest member of the Geddy’s Family “Geddy’s By The Sea,” an upscale women’s boutique featuring clothing, jewelry, and those special gifts for everyone.

The menu celebrates the bounty of Maine with fresh lobster and seafood caught in the waters directly in front of the restaurant. The lobster rolls are prepared with daily fresh-picked lobster meat – the best lobster roll in Bar Harbor. Or, pick your own lobster straight from the live tank and learn about Maine’s famous crustacean. Also, offering pizza, burgers, gluten free, and more. At Geddy’s, there is always something for everyone!
