If you are visiting Lubec and anticipate needing groceries, I'd recommend making a stop in Machias…read moreto do your shopping. I made this mistake while visiting Lubec for a couple nights. My husband and I booked and Airbnb for a couple nights and intended to make food in the kitchen, but the Airbnb didn't communicate the best and listed this IGA as a "nearby grocery store." It is right in the heart of Lubec, and it did have most essentials. However, the prices are super high and you don't really have the best selection. We lucked out and ended up with some delicious chicken thighs to bbq up, but ended up with a pretty basic marinade. There wasn't exactly a gourmet ingredient selection, but understandable for such a tiny town at the easternmost point of the US of A. The store provided the essentials so we didn't have to drive all the way back to Machias, but I wouldn't recommend this as a "main" shopping stop. If you're visiting Lubec, just make the stops at a bigger, regular supermarket in Machias. Otherwise this IGA is perfect for last minute, forgotten essentials.

Due to the time and the season we were told no food spots were open and this was likely our only option. Basically a lifesaver to prevent us from having to eat the minimal food we got in our car so we were thankful for their grab and go sandwiches and wraps. Bread was a touch soggy due to sitting in the fridge sometime but overall good size for the price sandwiches. Nothing world class or mind blowing but considering our situation and honestly price we can't complain!

The store is more "grocery" and less "convenience store" thanks to the large selection and the lack of large grocery stores in this part of Maine, which is right next to the Canadian border. Canned goods, candy, dairy, deli, lots of wine and beer plus the sort of automotive items you might find in a 7-Eleven including oil, anti-freeze and gasoline cans. They were stocking the pizza display as we arrived. They also sell lottery tickets. Plenty of parking out front. At this time, masks are required and the nice woman behind the counter was wearing hers when we made our purchase. [Review 14861 overall, 363 of 2021, number 47 in Maine.]

Someone who works there decided to plaster up some magazine that was extremely racially divisive…read moreinstead of cleaning the store that looked like a bomb went off in there. These magazine covers were taped so that you MUST look at them while lining up for check out and were not the initiative of the franchise or a corporate sponsorship. This means that some employee or possibly the manager thought it was more important than picking up the tripping hazards and clutter in the store? The store is frequently very chaotic and unkempt, the race baiting was the last straw, I'll no longer be shopping there, at all. Dollar General is the same cheap products we used to love at dollar prices now at much worse prices, this plus the cluttered store and racial BS, there's no reason to come in here. The IGA literally a block away is much better, not political or racial. It has less selection of sundries but more food. Choices.

This Sobey is located up on the hill close to Costco. I was surprise this Sobey is called 'Extra' and was not sure why. When I walked in i was pleasantly surprise to see how big this Sobey really was! They have a huge variety of food! There are a good mix of asian selection like sushi, noodle soup, and fried asian dishes. On the western side, they got chicken, ribs, beef, pot pies, Salad, soup, pizza and most of them are hot and ready! The cool part of this place is that they have courses for Cooking! they have a nice set up for a class room setting of 15 people or more. Today I felt like their chicken, hot meal, and salad meal for $18.99. Not a bad deal, it will definitely feed 3 people comfortably. For the hot meal i got their mac & cheese and slaw for the salad. Mac & cheese was very creamy and good. Chicken was perfectly done. Slaw was refreshing.

While she was inside I noticed a window at the far end of the building with a sign that simply read "TAKE OUT ONLY". I thought if I went to the window, she would come out with a second order of whatever they had. We she emerged with chips and cookies. I asked about the take out and she said there was nothing inside and she purposely looked for ready to eat food. I was delighted when the lady at the window said she sold fried chicken and potato wedges. I thought a 6 piece would fill us up and was surprised with the size and quality. Particularly after a recent bad super oily bucket from KFC. The chicken here was large breast, thigh and legs. We sat in the parking lot until it was all gone. I'll be sure to drop in again to this hidden little gem of a Take out.
