They have lots of unique designs here, as well as knives, and other things... not your normal souvenir shop, for sure. Definitely worth a visit if your wandering around in Bar Harbor.

There is a large selection of knives, which could be a cool gift if you have a person in your life who hunts or just likes knives. There are a number of jewelry offerings and a number of other apparel and gift items. It is a bit of a hodge podge and I agree with Christina that this store has a bit of a confused identity. That said, I totally found stuff to buy and enjoyed the unique offering in a town full of stores that all sell largely the same stuff.

Back during the 90s..."oMG! iAm rEAllY! aGInG MySElf" I used to hate when older people said that…read moreback then, but now I am saying...but as a joke b/c of how much I Hated it lol. So I was in high school back then and there used to be this store called, The 6T's Shoppe. It was a go-to store for all us 90s kids who posed as hippies haha! Yeah, we were all posers back then. We did everything hippies did, but talk to a 60s hippie and they'll all say...."you guys are all posers" LOL Whatever. I was a 90s hippie kid and I worked in the 6T's shoppe until I left to travel around from concert to concert, music fest to music fest...with other *poser* hippies LOL. That job was amazing! I can't say exactly what I would do before work haha! But it made for a fun shift every time. I would make jewelry all day while at work and actually sell quite a bit of it. Store sold everything we little hippies loved. SO! Whenever I come across stores like that...it warms me little heart! Makes me so happy that they still exist. Walking on Main Street in Bar Harbor...you go into many many many MANY! tourist shops that all sell the exact same thing as the next. Then...you come across Bar Harbor Hemporium. It a great sized store and has all things...hippie. I gotta say, it's kinda odd to see a store like this on Main St there. It's very bougie in Bar Harbor. Broke my heart too that there weren't many going in here either. They were there for BH shirts, Maine shirts and magnets, and everything else Maine this and Maine that. So to go to a store like this that sells like..Dead shirts, tie dyes, hemp jewelry, incense, etc... yeah, a little different from the rest of the strip. Don't get me wrong tho, I am very happy it is there and I SO hope it succeeds. Hippie stores need to thrive and stay alive. It makes us 90s kids very happy and brings us back to a time that so wish had never come to an end. Walking into these stores in a sweet little flashback (not that bad kind some get from Cid! Luckily, Cid was always kind to me :) ) but we get a sweet little flashback to a time where life was BEYOND carefree, where we traveled all over the country for god knows how long, where it seemed like everyone got along, social media, cell phones, tech in general was NOTHING like it is today! Back when...again...social media was nonexistent! and that made life so beautiful. Its like a hug from our past, a nice little hug from our past saying...even tho those years have past, your memories haven't. I know that sounds weird...especially when I am talking about a little ole hippie store in Bar Harbor, but there are places like that for all of us that remind us of the 70s, or the 80s, and yep, the 90s. I love places like that. I love that we still see them. We had a couple in Idaho...but I think we are just down to one now and it's in the mall and well...it kind of doesn't count bc it's nothing as cool at the Hemporium. Girl working was ....hmm, maybe a little sketch, but once we started talking to her, she opened up and talked to us like we had been friends for a MINUTE! So she was cool, I guess. Prices were what you'd expect. Not crazy expensive, but not cheap either. I mean, it may be a hippie store and all, but hippie stores have never been cheap. They are for some reason always so overpriced haha! But yeah, it's still Bar Harbor and I imagine the rents for these stores are NOT cheap. Please go if you are in Bar Harbor! Just check it out! Im sure you will find something. Even if you were a preppy college girl during the 90s I am 100% positive you wore hemp necklaces! haha! Why do I say that? Because I used to make and sell them to college girls back then allllll of the time! When I was home in NY or when I went on the road. This store will have something for all of us who were 90s kids and those of us who rocked some of that classic 90s fashion haha! DAMN! We were kind of the coolest kids haha! Thanks for reading, YelpHemporiumerss! Cheers!

The Good: *This location has stuff made by 60+ artisans, according to the lady at the register. *Speaking of the lady at the register, she was helpful, efficient, and friendly. *Great place to pick up unique gifts for loved ones or to take home something really cool for yourself. We found a nice painting of a lighthouse that we're bringing home. :) *Speaking of stuff, their selection is voluminous with tons of stuff from clothing and paintings to postcards, jewelry, and much, much more. *Prices are actually fairly reasonable considering the quality of the products--and especially the tourist factor of the area. *Wifi thru Xfinity Mobile, which is a life line in this area The Meh: *Store is a little tight in spaces, especially if you're an ogre like myself The Ugly: *Zero cell signal in the area Conclusion: Fantastic place to grab locally made goods at a reasonable price.
