Within Acadia National Park, Jordan Pond House occupies a historic location overlooking lovely Jordan Pond and two rounded hills known as the Bubbles. Originally the site of a logging operation, this picturesque spot attracted both locals and tourists with its wonderful views, and since the 1870s it has been a gathering place for fine meals. The menu here offers a wide variety of entrées with most items accompanied by the restaurant's signature fresh-from-the-oven popovers. Dishes include lobster stews, chowders, grilled salmon, crab cakes, marinated chicken and various salads. Try the popovers with homemade ice cream for dessert. You can choose to savor your meal indoors or outside on the restaurant's patio or broad expanse of lawn.
