"What greater gift than the love of a cat." ~ Charles Dickens…read more It's not every day a thrift shop greets you with a curious feline stretched out on a bookshelf or peeking from behind a stack of vintage linens. The cats live right in the store, and they're unmistakably the stars of the show. The shop is full of character, with a mix of antiques, secondhand finds, and seasonal surprises. Prices are fair, and the volunteers are warm, helpful, and clearly invested in the mission. Every purchase supports Safe Haven's no-kill shelter work, and that sense of purpose makes the place feel extra special. If you're anywhere near Wells, it's absolutely worth stopping in. You might leave with a vintage lamp, a great book, or just a little more joy than you came in with.

Pulled into the parking lot and was surprised at goes many cars were there. Waking up to the door and going inside noticed this place was very busy. Initial impression was that there were a lot of nice furniture items. Looking closer at the prices, I felt they seemed way too high for being a restore. Compared to the one by our home, these prices were very high. Store was clean and set up nicely. It's just that the prices were very high. Understand that they need to turn a profit for their charity but they probably would get more sales if the prices were comparable to second hand stores.

When I explained I needed a bag, since I was doing more shopping in town and spent close to a hundred dollars, I felt I shouldn't have to pay an additional.25. Not good business sense to loose a customer over a quarter. If I was the clerk, I would have searched around and found some bag that perhaps a person consigning had left behind to give me as an option since she couldn't part with their plain brown paper bags that they use. The owner of this company should pay attention to this and instill some flexibility to their employees.

I found some absolutely on-point tops for fall and may pop back in for a lovely leather "bucket bag" that I noticed right after I had checked out and paid. The lovely woman at the register was very helpful - and recommended a locals' favorite bakery that I should try - Boulangerie, A Proper Bakery. Apparently, their Saturday Babka offering is quite exceptional. They also have a comfy chair and magazines about Maine for your partner to peruse while you shop. My husband actually found a few points of interest to visit during our trip thanks to this little stop. I wish I could pop in more often!

Met the owner a few months ago while checking out the shop. Prices were quite high, and unless…read moreyou're into horses this really isn't the place for you. Owner also originally treated us as if she thought we were teenagers who were going to shoplift. My wife and I are in our mid 30's and happen to just be short. The POS system went down briefly when my wife and I went to check out. We ended up having some small talk with the owner, but this quickly turned weird. Owner began spouting medical conspiracy theories that were so disgustingly wrong, offensive, and straight up ignorant.I don't recall how we got on the topic of celiac (my wife has a severe gluten allergy), but Melissa went on an unhinged medical misinformation tyrade that only solidified that this woman is insane, and has no idea what gluten is. Not that that bit wholly matters but gods woman know what you're talking about before you open your mouth. After reading other reviews about how she has scammed people up down and sideways I cannot recommend enough that people steer clear of this place.

Since we were in Wells on our way to the nearby Maine Diner for lunch, we thought a stop here would be a fun blast from the past - so off we went. CC is essentially a collective of vendors who are selling their merchandise; the store is divided into little "cubbies" across two floors - with each cubby showcasing a specific vendor and their merch. The selection varies - lots of home decor in varying styles, but I also saw a lot of crap too like used Tupperware and old McDonald's toys from the 90s. There were a few VHSs which awesome if you're collecting those - but then I saw some marked up Beanie Babies? We were truly stepping back in time when entering Cole's. Overall, this was a fun throwback - there's a lot of stuff here to see so you can easily spend a good chunk of time going through each vendor. If you're staying in the Wells/Kennebunkport area it's worth a stop in.
