The storefront is adorable with its red barn color and Victorian vibe, and inside you'll find cozy seating areas both indoors and outdoors, perfect for lingering a bit after shopping. The staff here are beyond friendly and helpful. In fact, this is the very place where the "blueberry pie survey" happened. We asked the lady behind the register where to find the best blueberry pie, and she started to ask customers who came by who they recommended. They directed us to Moody's Diner. Locals and staff alike are quick to share stories and recommendations, which makes it feel like you're part of the community even if you're just passing through. The store itself is full of surprises. They've got a wood-burning pizza oven (yes, in a general store, how cool is that?), hot lattes, teas, and other comforting drinks, because nothing beats sipping a latte in a Victorian-style shop while digging into a fresh out of the wood burning oven gooey cheesy slice of pizza. Add in their great selection of beer and wine, plus Maine classics like whoopie pies and Moxie soda, and you've got something for everyone. A local gentleman even gave me the full history of Moxie, and that kind of friendliness is exactly what makes this place so special. Outside, you'll find pretty flowers and herbs adding to the charm. Owen's is quaint, welcoming, and one of those stops that makes a Maine trip extra memorable. Definitely worth a visit or 5! I'll most def be going back!

The vibe was cozy, warm, and inviting, which was a far cry from most places we had visited which seemed a bit exhausted and ill prepared to deal with lingering fall tourists. The food was phenomenal with complex and interesting flavors. The calamari was crispy and the chilis and sauce were the perfect complement. The chicken was also perfectly cooked and seasoned. But by far the best dish was the mussels. The broth with the soft chunks of sweet potato and bread to soak everything up was perfection. Cocktails were also unique and tasty. 3 alcoholic drinks, one small plate and 2 entrees was $100, which was well worth the price for the quality of the food and atmosphere.

Have returned twice since then. As the menu is small and hasn't changed since my first visit, the charm has worn off. I usually share the roast half chicken plus 2-3 sides. The meal was absolutely flavorful on my first visit but not so much the last visit in Dec 2025. Maybe it was a bad night? I thought the flavors fell flat and service was not as attentive. I was celebrating the holidays by treating friends to dinner and had to wave down someone twice to order rounds of drinks. I will give any establishment 20 stars if they are paying attention as to whether your glass is half empty. For me, the food can be excellent or blah but excellent service can make or break a restaurant.

I usually stock-up on products, spend several hundred dollars and either take them with me in the car or ship them home to New Jersey AND get complimentary shipping. This trip, I flew and was prepared to shop a big order & have it shipped home. When I inquired of the sales person about shipping charges, (a regular employee) I was told that I would have to pay shipping-regardless of what I spent. When I advised the clerk that I always got free shipping(based on the money I spent in the store) he/she advised me that he's only a cashier and that's the rules. I advised him that I could go on-line, get free shipping and not support this store. As I was leaving, I heard derogatory remarks being mumbled from the associate.

School is around the corner, the breezes have gone from warm to crisp, and the rains slip down from the mountains more frequently. It's almost time to head home, back to real life. But you want something to take with you, a little momento of the sun and sea and lobsters and lighthouses. But how many postcards, cartoony mugs and made-in-China trinkets do you need? Let's face it, you want something unique and uniquely Maine. Head on over to Maine Gathering in the gorgeous harbor town of Camden! Maine Gathering is what it sounds like: a place where Maine artists come together to share their work with locals and visitors alike. In this small, unassuming shop, you can find pottery, jewelry, float rope mats and baskets (all recycled!), birch bark momentos, sea glass bits and bobs, and a plethora of all things lobster! Almost everything is hand made by a Maine local, and it shows: Every detail represents something that makes this state a rare gem on the East Coast. And owners Howard and Margaret Gallagher make sure that every visitor feels welcomed into this Maine artistic haven. From the in-depth knowledge of everyone who works there to Howard's jovial nature to the sheer selection of amazing gifts, Maine Gathering is THE place to go to find something to help you remember your Maine vacation for years to come!
