The IGA is a pretty good market for a very small town.

We are in Robbinston ME and went looking for ice cream. Polar Treat sells Hood, Giffords, and…read moreShaker Pond brand hard ice cream. The majority of their hard flavors are Giffords. The servings are massive! A hard serve kiddie, described on their menu as 1 scoop, is definitely at least two scoops, each serving size is larger than the last with pricing increasing accordingly. A kiddie is $3.50 and so on. The staff are friendly, fast, and efficient. The place is strictly take out for both good and ice cream however they do have a food hall with screened in windows you can sit inside to eat your order. Everything is clean, and nicely decorated! We ordered four ice creams in cups and a shake. The smalls were at least three scoops. Giffords Ice cream is ok. Hood ice cream is meh. None of us ordered Shaker Pond flavors. They are cash only and there is an ATM on site. The business has been serving up treats for 70 years! They serve food as well; we only ordered ice cream. They are right on historic route one, which you can follow along the coast of Maine for a gorgeous drive!

We left with many gifts and a few for ourselves.

It honestly felt like walking in an adult candy store. Service was phenomenal. We were greeted right away and the cashier girl told us some cool fun facts about the spot! I bought some truffles for $14 and I honestly wish I would've bought way more. We got other chocolates (not pictured) and they were all delicious. The place is clean, organized, and not cramped inside. I was very impressed by this business! Can't wait to return one day!

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.]
