Bow Street does it again! I seem to have an uncanny ability to find tastings - and when I thought I…read morewas making a quick stop to get two avocados there was a tasting happening! It was great - the woman from the distributor was perfect. What made it extra memorable was a calligrapher who added messages to each bottle purchased. So yes, instead of 2$ for avocados I have a bottle of 10 year old Basil Hayden bourbon & bottle of tequila aged in a bourbon barrel.

This rating is specific to the Deli which I've NEVER had a good experience with. Only reason we…read morereturn is for Boars Head meats which can't be found anywhere else. For starters, they won't permit you to pre-order over the phone and direct you to the app, which also die NOT have an option to order deli meats. When you arrive at the deli, there are typically 4-6 employees standing behind the counter and not one of them will bother to acknowledge your presence. Certainly never any niceties. Instead, you'll find them shooting the shit tucked in the corner snacking on deli meats and cheeses. After multiple minutes waiting, One will come and ask if you've been helped because it's not obvious enough that I'm standing there alone, staring at them and no one has lifted a finger. This deli has to be the penalty box for Bow St workers because they all act like they're in a cage waiting to be let out and want absolutely NOTHING to do with patrons. They'll literally let meat roll off the slicer into a bag that ultimately falls apart when trying to remove a slice. Today, I got home to find a half pound of turkey ends. These guys clearly intentionally try to ruin days. Owners, PAY ATTENTION. This is on YOU.

You could visit a lot of them to sample everything, or you could save time and come here. The selection is equally impressive for their liquors (especially their whiskeys) and their wines. The staff are very helpful too. And if this is your first time here making a significant purchase, you can get a discount with your Yelp check-in as well.

The nice clerk told me he was out but would look out back to see if a shipment came in. He came out with the right bottle and told me it's been on hold for someone but they failed to grab it. SCORE!!! then he did something that really made my day. HE CARDED ME!!! I'm pushing 50 so you could just imagine my delight! I asked him if he accepted tips. All kidding aside, hit up this place. They are a gem!

First time stopping in at Riverside Butcher and what a phenomenal little spot. Right on the main…read moredrag in beautiful Damariscotta. This shop has everything for the meat eater in your life. Whether you are looking for charcuterie accouterments, ground meats, game burgers, grass fed beef tallow, or steaks to throw on the grill, this is your spot. I snagged some gorgeous boneless ribeyes and an assortment of game burgers (elk, venison and bison). The young lady who was working was extremely friendly and informative. 10/10 would recommend stopping by if ever in or around Damariscotta.

Good Lord! If you're craving one of the most satisfying lobster roll's you'll ever consume, please…read morecome to Patch's! The quality and the value will amaze you. I don't know how they do it, but their portions are massive, and the price is tough to beat (I've been sampling lobster rolls all summer thought Maine and no one comes close so far). Enjoy!

I heard good things about Patch's lobster rolls so I called and ordered 2 for my husband and I. I…read morefirst asked if they had them because I don't think they have them in winter months. While on the phone I asked if I should order ahead or just physically visit and order. Without hesitation he said order ahead because they were slammed. He asked if we wanted lettuce and I said sure why not? After picking them up and paying we ate the rolls in the car but there was no lettuce. Obviously not a big deal because I don't typically have lettuce on them but they clearly forgot the lettuce after specifically asking about it. The rolls were likely larger than most but didn't floor me because I usually get rolls with butter, not mayo. My husband thought it was on par with every other good mayo lobster roll he's had.

Year round store in Naples - hooray!! This is our go to grocery store - yes Hanafords is cheaper…read moreand has a bigger selection but I want to support Naples local businesses and I love that they are here all year. They have a weird selection of store brands from other stores, small produce selection, pre-cut deli, and lots of baked goods, chips, vacation snacks and more. They have a good beer selection and the UFO next door has even more beer. They also have an entire aisle dedicated to Naples clothing where we got t-shirts for the kids and sweatshirts. The clothing is cheaper than buying it at one of the gift shops down on the causeway. The negatives are that the parking lot gets very crowded on Saturdays in the summer and it can be tough to park a big truck in there. The check out lines can also get long especially on the far side of the store where they sell the cigarettes. Avoid that line if you can!

They focus on local, but rep a wide range of producers (esp on the beer and cider front), so you're sure to find something for every palate. BUT HERES THE THING AND IT'S RETROACTIVE SO Y'ALL SUCKERS WON'T BE ABLE TO CAPITALIZE! They had a decent surplus of Bantam Wunderkind, and as the Somerville cidery (and makers of my single favorite cider) recently shuddered, they were happy to sell us their entire stock of the juice to help us prolong the inevitable. And for that, five easy stars.
