Irish, done properly.

Bar Harbor empties out in winter. Leary's doesn't.

Cody and Lina Gordon met in Bar Harbor, he behind a bar and she waiting tables. Today they run Leary's Landing together and live right above it, which is about as close as an owner can stay to the room.

Established 2007 and open year-round: doors at 11:30 every day, kitchen until 10, and the bar stays open later. No reservations, just walk in. Well-behaved dogs are welcome, and there are outdoor tables when the weather cooperates.
