“Superior in Every Respect”

Reviewed May 24, 2013

The restaurant offers a variety of excellent dishes expertly prepared. The service and atmosphere are first class and make you want to return, which we have on many occasions. The rooms are beautifully appointed and comfortable, reminiscent of accommodations in major cities without the hassles of an urban environment. If you haven't visited the Cafe Drydock & Inn in Southwest... More

“One of my best seafood experiences”

Reviewed November 11, 2012

ThIs review is for the restaurant. We went here at the end of season so it was difficult finding an open restaurant for lunch. When we saw the "open" sign we pulled over right away! Getting into this restaurant was a challenge. There are 3 doors, and the one you're actually supposed to use needs to be yanked really hard.... More

Thank for visiting us and the great review. Our clam chowder is one of the best on the island as we have been making it for over 25 years. The secret to it is the cooks on our staff that make it. They are dedicated and do a great job. Our mussels come directly from the harvesters and we pick... More

Stayed 3 nights. The room/suite was very nice though a little unusual with the toilet/shower situation. It needs some more towels bars or hooks and or a shelf for toiletries or hanging a toiletry bag.We never met the owners but when we encountered a problem(burned out lights or more soap) the staff was helpful. Location is great as everything in... More

“Comfort on the Quiet Side”

Reviewed June 28, 2012

Pros: Comfortable, spacious, very attractively decorated. Friendly owners, gracious staff, good location. Cons: No parking (or instructions on where to park), and not great on housekeeping details-- missing soap in bathroom, no spoons or bowls in kitchenette. Overall, a nice place to stay for a couple nights in Southwest Harbor.

“Nice comfy stay”

Reviewed September 21, 2011

The Drydock Inn is more of a guesthouse than a hotel. The owners are hardworking friendly folk but don't expect to get a lot of attention-- they are busy with running the restaurant and the Inn. We enjoyed our stay, the room was very clean, comfortable and well kept. We actually stayed in two different rooms, one on the north... More

The room we stayed in seemed to be pretty clean and neat. Nice and pleasant owners. Tasty food in the restaurant downstairs. We parked for free on police parking lot just a block away. BUT!!! the smell in the room horrible, like if someone was smoking there non-stop. Or possibly it was just a stinky odor from the old furniture... More
