It was not ready and I called the pharmacy numerous times. I tried to convince them they had the incorrect fax number for my dr office, but the delays continued. It took three and a half weeks to get the prescription filled and I couldn't get it until the day before we left. Then they tried to tell me it would cost $54 when it was free. This was the worst customer service I have ever had! I sure hope the manager contacts me!

The lady at the front desk asked us if we were over 21 as we were looking at the selection. At first, it didn't bother us but she continued to make inappropriate comments and continuously assumed that we were not 21 even after we told her multiple times that we were of age. Some of the comments she made were "I can't have you looking at the selection for this long". As a paying customer, why not? And "we don't have a local beer selection." As we were literally looking at their local beers. It was so overwhelming and disrespectful that we just checked out with what we had and left. Very strange encounter.

Normally I'm far too lazy to write a review, but we had such a good experience at this store that I thought I really should. We had a somewhat unfortunate time trying to start a fire in the blackwoods campground after buying wood and a starter log from here. We went back to ask for advice, and he was as confused as we were about why the logs wouldn't stay lit. He gave us another bundle of wood, some of his own kindling, and lighter fluid for free. In the end, it turns out that the supplier of the logs had left them out in the rain, and while they were dry on the outside, internal moisture kept them from burning correctly. We didn't get a fire to stay lit that night, but the store owner refunded our money without us asking, saying he hoped we would be back. We certainly will be if we're on Mount Desert Island again.

This was one of the most disturbing customer service experiences I've ever had…read more I stopped by this deli to buy some muffins. After picking one up, the owner suddenly snatched it out of my hand and immediately began yelling at me. I was completely caught off guard. I calmly asked what I had done wrong and said there was no reason to yell at me. Rather than explaining the situation, she continued shouting, became increasingly aggressive, and repeatedly ordered me to leave the store. At no point was I given a clear explanation for what had happened. My husband, who had been waiting in the car, saw me return upset and empty-handed. He went inside hoping to calmly resolve the misunderstanding, but he was also told to leave without any meaningful explanation. Despite his efforts to de-escalate the situation and speak respectfully, the owner continued yelling and refused to have a conversation. So we left. Later, we mentioned the incident to our Airbnb host, who told us he remembered similar confrontations involving this business with some of his past renters. After reading Yelp and other reviews, we also found accounts from other customers describing comparable experiences, including some who felt they were treated differently because they were non-white. I can't speak to the owner's motivations or intentions, but seeing similar accounts from others was deeply troubling. Any opportunities or excuses she can find to harass, she will. No customer should be yelled at, humiliated, or threatened for any reasons. Everyone deserves to be treated with basic courtesy and respect. We intend to report this incident through the appropriate channels so it can be properly reviewed. I also hope the business preserves any available security camera footage, as it may help provide an objective record of what occurred. Based on my experience, I cannot recommend this establishment.

But this, fair "convenience store of Northeast Harbor" seekers, is as far as the goods go. Oh, there are more snacks, sips and sundries around an ancient layout (and even older hot dogs on rollers), only the disheveled, devil-may-care organization of the aisles and shelves means you can find a bit of everything, just not if you're looking for it. At this point of chaotic recollection, I point you back to my review opener. Worth a stop to sample Maine's best dried beef.

Love me a good sandwich for lunch!…read more Must try: thanksgiving day after sandwich was so damn good! I got the cold one, but they also offer a hot one. I thought cheese would be weird on this so I asked for it without cheese. I'm also not a huge fan of mayo but knew this sandwich needed it so I got it with light mayo. This was so damn good. Perfect ratio of all ingredients and was a thick boy! High quality ingredients all around (stuffing, thick cut turkey, cranberry sauce, bread) The country bread was also nice and soft, perfect bread for this sandwich. I went right in on a Sunday afternoon, placed my order and was out in under 5 minutes. Sandwiches did seem a little higher priced, but for the location and high quality, I see why. Great spot to grab for lunch and walk down by the water and have a picnic. Highly recommend!

My husband and I decided to share two entrées. I got the turkey club on rye bread, which is baked daily in their bakery. The sandwich was very tasty. I did feel though it could've been another piece of turkey. My husband ordered fried clams which were cooked to perfection. The fries were also flavorful and crispy. On the way out, we had to stop back at the bakery. We ended up buying a blueberry pie that was out of this world. The donuts were so fresh and delicious. The restaurant was very clean and well maintained and the staff was super friendly. So if you're looking for good food or a delicious bakery, this is your place.
