Yes, I'm giving Viand five stars - mainly because I can come here and I'll always find something…read moreunique for a gifting or decor need. Viand does not disappoint! I did not know I needed a purple faux jaguar carpet throw until I discovered it one day and now my entryway is complete. This is a charming store full of very interesting and eye-catching items for your home - or a gift for someone who appreciates quality. Excellent service, and while the prices can be high, the quality does in fact make them worthwhile. Viand doesn't carry goods you purchase and toss in a few years, these are new friends that will stay in your life for a long, long time.

Viand is a wonderful high-end home decor (and trinkets) store. Their selection is very thoughtfully…read morecurated, and is a great mix of trendy and timeless. Everything is extremely high quality, and I believe local artists are supported by Viand. The workers are professional, sweet, and chic. My one qualm is that it is very pricey and I often don't find anything that fits my taste, despite the store being filled with wonderful finds. Worth a look for sure!

Wool blankets, socks, books, vintage glassware and cutlery to name a few. A small section in the back of baby items are a must stop if you need a unique baby gift. A few items I was obsessed with this time were the wooden handle dust brushes and the lucia goatmilk soaps. Stop here your next trip to the old port. One note is that it is not handicap accessible.

I feel like every time I visit, I find something new. The employees I've encountered seem so calm and welcoming: I haven't felt any pressure to hurry up (and ooooh do I like to linger!), or move on, or even buy anything. I've overheard them being helpful and kind to people with questions. It seems the store is stocked with products from small, local artisans; what's not to love about that?! There are tarot readings available by the 15, 30, and 60 minute slot every Saturday; tarot and palmistry on Fridays and Sundays; and, other events happening each month too (be sure to look at their board by the cash register)!

Aside from their clothing, both locations (Biddeford store as well) have many odds and ends, including jewelry that is made by smaller companies, some home goods like blankets, pillows and decorations; hats, shoes and belts, stationary, a few baby clothing items and some good gift items. Staff is helpful and there are many that go out of their way to make your experience shopping a good one. Clothing is also online on their website. This spot is not to be missed.

Both women working were incredibly nice--can't wait to return!
