Flavor-forward dining, inspired by the Maine coast

At The Asticou Hotel, dining is shaped by the rhythm of the island – easy to step into and just as easy to enjoy. From breakfast and dinner at Dahlia’s to cocktails at Moss Bar or Cabana Bar, each space offers something a little different. For those looking for places to eat and drink in Northeast Harbor, it all comes together here with seasonal menus, well-made drinks, and a setting that invites you to settle in.

Dahlia’s

Bright in the morning and softly lit by evening, Dahlia’s is the hotel’s signature all-day dining experience. Rooted in the flavors of coastal Maine, the menu highlights seasonal ingredients with a simple, thoughtful approach that lets each dish shine. Start your day with fresh pastries and coffee, return for a relaxed lunch, or settle in for dinner as the space transitions into a warm, inviting setting. At every hour, Dahlia’s reflects the easy elegance of the harbor.

Moss Bar

Quietly tucked within the hotel, this moody and romantic intimate setting is ideal for cocktails and conversation. Layered textures and low lighting create a calm, refined atmosphere, while the menu focuses on well-crafted drinks, curated wines, and a selection of light bites. Ideal for a pre-dinner drink or a nightcap, it’s a space that invites you to slow down and stay awhile.

Settle in with something cool, take in the surroundings, and let the afternoon unfold at its own pace.

In-Room Dining

From slow, sunlit breakfasts to relaxed evening bites, The Asticou’s in-room dining brings seasonal, coastal flavors to your door – perfect for lingering mornings, quiet nights, and moments that unfold at your own pace
