"Quality not quantity" does NOT apply here. Dannah has style honey and we benefit! Something for everyone & every occasion. It's endless really......

I see a couple of earlier comments regarding cell phone use in the store. I'm as attached to my phone as anyone, but I wouldn't assume that other customers are eager to hear my side of a conversation. Easy to step outside.

The cashier came out from behind the counter and walked up to me and my daughter and asked me to "take my phone outside." I do not expect this kind of rude treatment in Kennebunkport and I'm not sure how a shop owner thinks this is going to help sales. ‍ I decided to spend my $ somewhere else.

Its nuts how The Whimsy Shop has been a staple in my memory of Kennebunkport from the early 90s yet…read moreit has so little Yelp reviews. 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.

Like things I actually wanted to buy! None of the stupid tourist crap with MAINE written all over it. The staff was also really friendly. They greeted everyone who came in, asked if they could help, and thanked everyone walking out the door whether they bought something or not. The place was full of beach and new england inspired goods that were attractive and funky. Books about lobster, books about new england, retro sand pails, lamps made out of shells, flip flop coasters, starfish, paintings, weathered wood clocks. I highly recommend stopping in, and getting a REAL souvenir to bring back home. And if you're are one of the lucky few who live near the ocean, def come pick out some beach inspired decor for your house.

He says hello and you are immediately taken by all the fabulous items in the shop. There's something for everyone. There are little trinkets to prints or kitchen goods to wallets to jewelry to name something, it's probably there. Price wise, it's not bad at all. I bought some prints for $22, which was cheaper than going directly to the source. It was also letterpress! In any case, it's a very lovely store with quality products, that's priced reasonably. They also will wrap up your item if you need it as a gift. Well, I just noticed that the owner wrapped up a set of glasses for a customer in a box and it was ready as a gift. Very stylish and very simple. Overall, I would come back because it's just such an awesome store.

It's made of high quality materials & workmanship as advertised. I needed some advice on picking a milk paint color and called them prior to placing my order online to discuss. They were extremely helpful. The furniture was delivered within the quoted timeframe and was well worth the wait to get exactly what I wanted. If you need furniture "tomorrow" then the cheap stuff at your local store with MDF in places is your best bet. But if you want top quality furniture you can feel proud to own & hand down to your children, Kate Madison is worth a look! The deliverymen were friendly & took care in moving the bookcase in my home. All around a wonderful experience. I will definitely return!

Firstly, this store is full of cool items to buy... mostly around ocean/exploration/sailing theme. Lots of really cool stuff. I bought from here something that was carved from a reclaimed oil steel drum into the shape of a whale. I liked the idea behind taking something like this and recycling into a cool little piece of art. Also the dark/rust color of the item really goes with the dark wood in my room. I also bought this beautiful compass. It's built into a box which has a carving of a fisherman reeling in a mermaid... certainly looked distinctive and I liked it a lot. There were other beautiful items in there that I would have purchased if I had the room in my home. If your in Kennebunkport, check this place out!

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
