Harvest Moon Deli — Restaurant in Bangor

Out of our entire stay in Maine (Bangor, Ellsworth, bar harbor) this was both my and my partner’s favorite meal. He is an omnivore and I’m a herbivore (reincarnated brontosaurus. Jk promise I’m not crazy please trust this review).

The soys of summer sounded amazing online and we beelined here as soon as we got off the plane. There was some confusion with my order but the staff was so nice and promptly made me the correct sandwich (I mumble so it was probably my fault. I usually will just take whatever as long as it is vegetarian but I just knew I needed this sandwich and I was right!!!).

This thing was so amazing. Many restaurants just have a veggie option as an after thought but they have put true intention behind these paninis.

When we left town today we were still full from breakfast but I had to have the soys again, so we split it. Must go, ranked higher than lobster and more!

Also, clean bathrooms....

Stopped for a quick sandwich for the road . What a disappointment. We got a roast beef sandwich. The roast beef was pressed mystery meat tasting with a plastic fake texture. The sandwich contained avocado that was slimy, brown and passed its use by date as the taste was also off. The pickle that came with the sandwich was a the width and length of my pinkie finger so small qualifies more as relish than a pickle. To top it all off, they said would call my name when done and twenty minutes later no name called . Went up to the counter to ask and it has been sitting there as a phones on call . Don’t waste your time or money. Any other place has to be better...

I recommend checking this place out. We needed a quick place for lunch while on vacation and saw Harvest Moon Deli with 4.7 stars. It's just a sandwich shop with a relatively small menu but does have a few salads too. I ordered the Roast Beef of Burden - a basic sandwich with 2 slices of bread, roast beef, cheese, onions, and mustard. I'm pretty sure it was the best sandwich I've ever eaten and I'm not even sure why. My 3 year old also ate his grilled cheese without issue compared to normally arguing to eat his meal. Small eat-in area was comfortable and inviting. I wish we were here more than an afternoon as I'd like to try...
