This little shop in Boothbay is packed with soooo many popcorn flavors -- everything from Grilled Cheeseburger to Key Lime Pie to Lemon Blueberry Delight (which, by the way, tastes just like Fruit Loops). We grabbed a few bags of the "weird" flavors and enjoyed most of them. My biggest regret? Not buying a bag of the caramel after sampling it in-store. It was sweet, buttery, and instantly transported me back to childhood and Cracker Jacks. The only letdown for me was anything with chocolate -- it seems they use a powder instead of melted chocolate, and it just doesn't hit the same. Still, this is a fun, unique stop with creative flavors you won't find anywhere else. read more

Coastal Maine Popcorn - Popcorn Shops Near Me - Boothbay Harbor, Maine

We can report the several flavors with tried were good to try. Some sweet some savory and some just plain weird so we got several bags to take home. Rosemary sea salt & olive was hands down our favorite popcorn that we had during our visit to this popcorn place. Whoopie pies and beef jerky sold here as well. Lots of nearby shops to visit while in the area with parking down by the harbor or on the street. read more

Friendly staff, popcorn is fine, very different customer experience this year and last because they don't give free samples anymore, just a stupid sample of the week. We buy way less than before. read more

Coastal Maine Popcorn was neat to visit. There were a ton of options to choose from and the "buy 4 get the fifth bag free" deal made it a bit easier to make a decision. They sell pre-bagged popcorn and even sampler bags. We decided to try Frog Logs (very good but too sweet), Spicy Coconut Curry (I liked it but my fiancé didn't and he loves curry), Pineapple Upside Down Cake (probably our favorite of the purchase), Peach Cobbler (it was fine), and the Maine Blueberry Pancakes (I loved this one, fiancé felt weird about it). I wish they sold smaller bags than size "small" so we could try all of the flavors. Overall, we weren't crazy about the flavors we chose but that's only based on 5 flavors of at least 20 offered. The staff were friendly and quick with the purchase and it was interesting to see literal tubs of popcorn being scooped out into bags. read more

My wife loves this place and every visit she has to stop. It has been a few years since we have been here and the flavors have changed; for the good. There is a nice variety and they were running a buy 4 get one free special...so of course, my wife couldn't resist. We wound up getting five and giving a few to our daughters who are also popcorn heads. The staff was friendly and helpful which was a far cry from our last visit where the staff was rude and unaccommodating and the popcorn was on the stale side. Possibly new owners and definitely new staff as they went out of their way to be helpful. The price is reasonable for a specialty item in a tourist area. I have to admit their flavors are good. I believe they ship all over the USA. This was a good stop and experience. read more

We went there on two separate days and both times they were closed, a Thursday and a Monday. One would think prime time summer hours they would be open. Too bad they lost some sales. read more

This is the best popcorn in the world to me! I give it to all my employees for Christmas every year. To show you -I blindly bought some "garlic butter" kind. I took it home and tossed a handful in my mouth and immediatley spat it out. Then I looked at the label. Not Coastal Maine. Ugh! Also highly recommend Spicy Coconut Curry!

A sad decline in quality (and service!) at a store the whole family used to love summer after summer... what happened? The kernels are pathetically small... the flavors meh... we've given up on this business. Just a sad mess. read more

This was the best store EVER!!!!! And nice????? Omg , they were all so nice and Angie educated us on all the different kinds and the combinations. Such a fun place. Make sure you go visit. They even have mail order and the prices are sooooooooooo inexpensive!!!!!!! Dayna K read more

Honestly a waste. Jamaican jerk tasted like Cotton candy and spices. It was also stale. Depressing

Very cute shop with every kind of popcorn you can imagine. I really liked how they gave you as many samples as you want. My favorites included dill pick, and chocolate caramel sea salt. read more

Loved it! Dozens of variety of unique flavors including root beer, jalapeño, licorice, pumpkin, and more! This is their flagship store which serves their other stores around the state. Owners were there on the day we were there and very friendly service. The only problem is is that we ate much of the popcorn we bought to take home before we made it home!! read more

Coastal Maine Popcorn - Love this! - Popcorn Shops Near Me - Boothbay Harbor, Maine

My advice is ask for a sample wish we had. We picked three and they said buy one more and get fifth free. The kernels are small and the flavor on the cheese and kettle Korn are not good. It also tastes stale can hardly wait to try my other 3 bags NOT sorry we waisted 35.00. So again our advice is to ask for a sample then you would know what your getting. read more

Stopped in because I had to know what "Frog Fart" flavour was. Having a boy at home, it's always an adventure finding just the right thing to bring home. It was a huge hit! read more

There is nothing I enjoy more than popcorn. Needless to say I was in heaven when I walked in to this store. So many flavors to choice from. We were able to sample some of the choices. We went with s'mores, salt and vinegar, and sweet jalapeño. Definitely my favorite way to end a night... eating delicious popcorn. read more

Great customer service, explained their popcorns all in easy to understand and inviting terms. We appreciate Coastal Maine Popcorn and will be back when in the area. read more

Terrible flavor, I would skip this. We bought salt & vinegar and garlic Parmesan both were terrible. Sad to say as we both love flavored popcorn. read more

Tasty little find with Great prices. If you buy 4 bags you get a 5th free. Also free samples of any flavors before you buy! I must have tried 7 types of popcorn because I couldn't choose, and the staff was happy to allow it. Staff was so informative and friendly. Popcorn has unique flavors and fresh. Will order some for the holidays. read more

Paid $25 for 2 bags of pre-packaged popcorn. First bag was stale - no samples at all? Probably wouldn't have bought it if I had tried. I'd skip this place. read more

Good popcorn. Lots of interesting flavors, but was better a few years ago. The year, and it may have been the weather, the popcorn was a bit stale tasting - like the popped it in the morning and didn't do the flavoring until late in the day. Still, will always stop in to see what they have and grab a bag. P.S. Like that they give you a twisty tie with the bag. read more

Good popcorn shop in downtown Boothbay. Vast selection of savory, sweet, and chocalate popcorn. After quite a few free samples we decided on s'mores and garlic parmesean. We felt they were our favorites. The employees did not seem very happy or helpful, no smiles from any of them. Bags were not easily resealable, even with including a twist tie. The bags ripped and tore and he popcorn fell out and rhe bags could not be resealed. Great location though. I have been back for a few years now. read more

This place is awesome because you can have as many free samples as you like! I tried the dill pickle, Maine maple and salt and vinegar. There's a lot more to try but I was too full from lunch! I bought a classic pack which flavors: key lime pie, salt and vinegar, blue cheese, Maine maple and buffalo wings! It was $16! I can't wait to try them! read more

So many popcorn flavors, so little time! No, seriously, there are more flavors than you can possibly imagine - from savory, to sweet, to downright weird! And for the most part, all were pretty darn good. The associate who helped us was really nice, and let us sample as much as we liked. We ended up buying small bags of Roasted Garlic, Molasses Sriracha and Dill Pickle - all so tasty! The store offers 20% discounts to the military (active or retired), and the associate thanked an older veteran for his service to our country upon purchase, which I thought was gracious. A flavor adventure for popcorn lovers! read more

Incredible popcorn and history. Thank you Coastal Maine Popcorn!

So, if you're looking to send something to your kids or grandkids that's healthier than your average Easter basket, take a look at the Easter Sampler. My grandkids loved going to the Freeport store that is now closed and raved about the freshness and flavors of the popcorn. Very interesting flavors! read more

We have tried popcorn in just about every part of the USA and this is the country's very best popcorn! Made with tender loving care by a small family business in Coastal Maine. And they are very prompt and efficient in shipping it for you. Do not miss it! Anita and Andy F. read more

This little shop is great! All kinds of interesting flavors and you can taste before you buy! I was going to buy a bag but ended up buying 5! Delicious! read more

Of course we had to go in. Staff was friendly and let us sample the ones we liked. Bought a bagful for the drive home.

Lots of flavors, but just not that tasty. Costco kettle corn is better than the kettle corn we got there. Very friendly service but SLOW. Might be good for novelty flavors, but that's about all. read more

While the flavor of the popcorn was good (parmesan garlic) the popcorn actually "broke down" quite quickly from when we purchased it to ate it all (small bag). I am wondering if the "coated" ones would fare better. Lots of choices though and a nice clean store. I would request that they maybe purchase a better quality kernel to pop - these have a lot of "shells" and they are large and thick when eating - more than most of the store bought - i.e. smart pop, fiddle faddle, etc. read more
