We love "cooking" stores, but…read morethey're usually filled with overpriced items that can be found at a MUCH cheaper price online. This place was different -- they had so many kitchen gadgets at every price point imaginable, and they had so many cool items that you could not find online (or it would be more expensive). We were surprised by the size of the store. It's huge! If they don't have what you're looking for... then you probably don't need it. The staff was friendly and welcoming. We bought a book and a cheese grater that put our previous one to shame. We can't wait to return again when visiting Bath.

When you're driving up from Harpswell to Bar Harbor... there's a fair amount of local pottery…read morestores. There's even more antique shops. MAN, the amount of antique shops. I could literally just spend a week making that three hour trek, stopping every 5-7 miles at an antique store, but I digress. One of the first pottery stores we encountered in the trek was Salt Box Pottery. A big fan of salt boxes myself, and a big fan of pottery, I was sold. You might be saying to yourself... why does a man who annoyingly claims to keep a low sodium diet, as much as a crossfitter likes to talk about how hard their work out was, like salt boxes? Listen, I can appreciate the pottery and construction of a salt box can't I?! Can I not?! So, this adorable little outpost is half store and half studio. There was one potter who was in studio when we arrived and she graciously let us use her restroom and was not very hovery (probably not a word) as we shopped around. I ended up purchasing a beautiful bowl, which I pretty much use every day now. And I also purchased a small blue cup that I have no idea what the use case is. It's almost the size of one of those la fermière terracotta yogurt containers... and when I buy those I usually make candles out of the empty containers (like a good resourceful gay). But... I definitely wouldn't want to light any fire in this small beautiful blue thing. I'll find a use for it one day, and it will be glorious. If you're headed from Harpswell Maine to Bar Harbor I'd highly recommend stopping here. I can tell you, as someone who is in their Pottery era, and as someone who stopped at MANY of the potters between Harpswell and Bar Harbor... this was surely one of my favorites. So much so, that amongst the 10 or so pottery stores I stopped at - this is my first to review and the one I'm most excited about... and that's coming from someone who keeps a low sodium diet... did I mention I keep a low sodium diet?

Cute place in a tourist town…read more I know it sounds a bit ridiculous (and I'm aware there's probably somewhere in Portland that has this) but I came here pretty much solely to get HP sauce, which I am appalled that standard grocery stores in Portland do not have! Sure, Amazon has it too and all that but I figured it made a good excuse to come out to Freeport and get HP sauce and maybe a couple other things. Tea drinkers and jelly lovers will have quite a time here. The shop is quite small and very much a gift shop. A bit peculiar to have in Freeport, Maine, maybe... but nevertheless there were a lot of worthless trinkets that could have easily been purchased. But I limited myself to just three items. I just realized i forgot to look in the fridge! Auuuugh!!! I guess I have to go back now.

Perfect spot to find a wedding or bridal shower gift. I had gone in to purchase a new tide clock for my mother, the mechanism in hers no longer worked (after many years). Before I even picked out a clock the employee informed me that the mechanism can be replaced for only 7 dollars while a new clock was 50 dollars. I was so impressed she informed me of this voluntarily and potentially missing a sale. I bought a new clock and plan to have the old one fixed. The other aspect it love about this store is the space. You can browse and see everything without feeling as though your purse will knock over a 100 dollar piece of pottery. Defiantly check this place out if you're in need of a unique gift.
