Today I finally called him out in the store because enough is enough. It's inappropriate, unwelcome, and has made me feel uncomfortable every time I've walked through the door.

For years I've driven by Wallingford Farm in Kennebunk. Today I finally decided to stop at the farm…read moreto check it out. I was pleasantly surprised to see they had a store that sells a variety of item including fresh baked goods which included, a large selection of pies, cookies,pastries and more. Giftwares produced locally and more. I purchased a Strawberry Rhubarb pie that was simply one of the best I've ever had. The pastry light and flaky, the Strawberry Rhubarb filling well balanced between the sweetness of the Strawberry and the tartness of the Rhubarb. I highly recommend checking out Wallingford farm and check out the farm store .

I guess the typical shopper here doesn't actively use Yelp - but still! Anyway, I'm here to add to the review hat - as we were walking though Kennebunkport and stopped in on a...whim. Businesses come and go in Dock Square - some are new, others have been here since I first went to Maine as a child. The Whimsy Shop is on the latter end of that spectrum, and was always known for carrying more upscale gifts compared to a typical touristy souvenir shop. My brothers and I were looking for a gift to bring back to our parents from Maine, and thought this would be a good place to check out. The majority of their selection is home decor - there are a lot of porcelain products as well as a few housewares. They have pretty stuff, and even though it's a small store you can spend a good amount of time browsing. We ultimately decided to go with a hand-painted ceramic snowman to go with our parents' many other snowpeople they display during the holidays - it was intricately painted an truly a unique item. Service was friendly, they packed the item with care and even gave us information about the artist to take home. Overall, I had a great experience rediscovering the Whimsy Shop and would recommend it as a stop during your Kennebunkport explorations.

Online the return policy isn't posted clearly either. Summary: a certain amount of time. When I went to return a gift, which I had my email receipt, the cashier told me of this policy, which I brought to her attention is ABSURD. She proceeded to call the owner, WHO, said they closed out the 2025 year and could not even provide a gift card. Okay, business owner, other businesses can provide a gift card or provide a full return. Clearly you are lazy and do not want to have happy customers. I live locally and shop down in the port often. I will continue to tell people not to shop at your business because you care more about your sales than customer satisfaction. Sincerely, An unhappy local customer

Just look in the windows and you'll want to go in! They seem to be decently priced as well. The staff is extremely friendly and they even have an online shop. Of course, shopping online is nothing like shopping in the store, but you can find some of their more popular items online.

Saxony has been in Kennebunkport as long as I can remember, sitting very close to the center of…read moreDock Square. This store is kind of a catch-all for souvenirs, hence it heavily appeals to tourists. Walking in on a July day I was greeted with a large number of people and a large number of merch. It's kind of hard to navigate, but you can make it work with some maneuvering. What can you find at Saxony? Well, let me try to see how much I can remember: t-shirts, sweatshirts, magnets, socks, cups, stuffed animals, magnets, lotions, potions, oodles, doodles - basically any sort of tchotchke you're looking for, you'll find it here. Something worth noting is that they carry a large amount of politically themed merchandise. They don't discriminate though - both sides of the spectrum are equally represented. Overall, you can find at least one thing to pick up while here. Prices are surprisingly cheap for a souvenir shop, but also I find they don't carry the highest quality stuff (the t-shirt I picked up, for example, is only 50% cotton). It's definitely worth a stop, though, if you are in Dock Square - at the very least you will be entertained by all the merchandise.

We were lucky to have Fiona as our instructor, and she truly made the class unforgettable. She was friendly, knowledgeable, and patient as she guided us through the scent-blending process. You start by exploring a whole wall of fragrances (over 100 scents!) and then you get to mix and match to create your own signature scent. Once we found our perfect blends, we poured our candles and made diffusers which was so much fun. Fiona made the whole process feel personal and stress-free. If you're looking for a unique date night, girls' day out, or self-care treat, Sea Love is an absolute must. Ask for Fiona she'll make sure your experience is just as special as ours was!
