Prices are a little high but everything is locally made. The gardens outside are worth the trip all on their own. Currently they can't accept credit card and I don't know if that's going to change anytime soon.

Fun place! Antiques, housewares, nautical Nick nacks, toys, trolls and an art gallery!read more

I love this place. Even though it's relatively small, it's jammed pack with so many old and…read moreinteresting things from the local area and abroad. The business itself is separated into two buildings, a third building is dedicated to the owner's art studio. All items are displayed well and easy to handle and return back to their original place. There is no one manning the store, and as such all purchases are made on the honor system. For this and much, much more Iver's is a 5-star spot for anyone coming to the island. If you are fortunate, Mr. Iver himself will be there in person and he can tell you all about the island and the generations of people that have been a large part of establishing it on the map through the last 100 or so years.

The Goats really do have something for everyone from beginning antique shoppers to advanced collectors.

"I like it!" Colin said. And with that we knew our family's "fine junk" would be finding a great…read morenew home. Our first impression of the store was that it was filled with quality, well-displayed goods - and that we could spend A LOT of time in there and walk away with some really unique, useful, beautiful pieces. So when it was time to take care of a beloved and lost family member's estate, we reached out to Two Old Goats. Colin was so kind and respectful as he reviewed and gathered the many stories and items we had to share. Thank you, Colin, for making an emotionally and physically difficult time feel easy and exciting.

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.

We loved this shop and came in here multiple times (pretty much every time we walked into town from…read moreour hotel) and found some great items inside. Staff weren't super friendly, younger girls who didn't really speak unless spoken to, but that wasn't a big deal. They have nicer, higher end items like Patagonia, Kuhl and Colombia inside. All the Acadia-themed clothing you could want and a small ice cream shop in the back (wasn't open when we were there yet). They have some essentials for hiking if needed like hats, socks, bottles, and other necessities as well as the more touristy things.

It's not easy finding a clothing store in Bar Harbor that doesn't feature lobster-claw sweatshirts…read moreand other touristy items - I was actually able to find a nice sweater jacket here that not only looks stylish but kept me warm in the chilly Bar Harbor air. I looked at many, many stores before I found one that carried clothing you could wear in a business casual situation and not look strange - this was one of the few that had some stylish, non-tourist driven, options. I thought the price was good given the quality of the sweater jacket I purchased and expect to wear it for life.

This is another fun gift shop in Bar Harbor. Their sign says "unusual gifts," and that's what it…read moreis. 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.

They stock a variety of leather coats and jackets, other cold weather gear, binoculars, Swiss army knives, hunting knives and the like. If you're planning any outdoor activities like camping, hiking and bird watching, it's worth stopping by here to pick up any needed gear, along with that souvenir for your relatives. Also, insider tip: If you show up in the fall, the store normally offers 50% off all items in stock!
