Chowder is a Maine tradition and staple. When the temperature drops outside and the snow starts to fly, Maine families gather in their kitchens over comforting bowls of thick warm chowder, to catch up, share a story, or just to have a laugh. Our recipe has been fine-tuned over generations, passed down from mother to daughter, father to son. Our specialty seafood chowders are loaded with simple, easy to understand ingredients and chunks of fresh fish and seafood – the way any self-respecting chowder should be! Bar Harbor Foods sits on a picturesque wharf on a beautiful sheltered cove in Down east Maine. The cries of gulls echo across the water; the tide laps against pilings as the tie lines of the fishing boats stretch and creak in the sun and fog. This is where we make our premium specialty seafood – fresh off the docks of Maine. While the business has expanded and changed over the past 85 years, Down east Maine still inspires all our products. Our premium foods reflect naturally delicious New England cuisine and authentic Maine traditions. We like to keep things simple, from original recipes and fresh natural ingredients, to the appealing simplicity of our labels. Our specialty seafood and other fine foods are made in small batches and packed and canned mostly by hand, just like people on the coast of Maine have been doing for generations. Bar Harbor is a special place – you can taste it!
