Gary recently delivered some GORGEOUS tulips for my birthday and they stayed fresh for NINE DAYS! The friend from out of state who ordered them depended on Gary to select a bottle of wine to go with them. She told him I like Argentine wines, so he picked out a beautiful Malbec and a nice chunk of Manchego to go with it. (He didn't even know that Manchego is my favorite cheese!) Everything Gary offers in his shop is supremely decadent and I always walk out with a smile on my face!

I love the name of this shop! The owners guessed the words to my secret mantra. I was happy to…read morelearn that a gourmet cheese store had recently arrived to this corner of Maine. Located around the corner from the main drag it's easy to find because of the eye catching chalkboard signs we saw on the sidewalk which point the way for you. There was an initial big disappointment here which turned out to be the first thing you are confronted with at the entrance and that is the metal spiral staircase that one must climb in order to enter. There is no other way in that I could see. Never mind how treacherous this could be on an icy winter day, the real tragedy here is that this means access is barred to those with certain disabilities, anyone in a wheelchair, a parent with a stroller, a frail elder and others that may have trouble navigating such a wretched means of entry. Once safely inside the space it's small but quite inviting and pleasantly decorated. The bounty is contained in one large glass-fronted refrigerated case and it's delightfully packed with cheeses from places near and far. The friendly man working there who I believe was the owner, told us to just let him know whatever it was we wanted to sample. Say no more! Already displayed were a few plates of already cut up cheese samples from which I took a number of nibbles. I love when shops do this although for hygiene sake I would have loved some toothpicks to spear the cheese rather than have everyone use fingers. I decided on the cutely named Ewephoria which is a sheep's milk cheese (get it?) from Holland. It's a hard cheese that was nutty and buttery. We loved it, so I'll be on the look out for it again. There were some artisinal salamis for sale as well that intrigued my husband. From trips to Tuscany where boar is king, he has become especially fond of this kind of meat. He bought some of the smoked boar sausage that he said was delicious. The shop also sells a small but decent selection of wines and some gourmet crackers. We wished they sold some fresh crusty baguettes which would have made this one stop shopping for the perfect picnic fare. There is nothing about what they are selling and how they are selling it inside the shop that I have any trouble with. It's great. What I hope is that the owners who have come up with a great idea for this town, will figure out a way to address the need for access to all. And from the owner's point of view, they should be thinking about all the customers who they are missing because they can't get in. I don't know how the appropriate changes can be done at this exact location unless there was a secret elevator or entrance I missed. But if not, there have got to be other available storefronts somewhere in Belfast in which to set up shop. Hello, calling Belfast realtors...

An active butcher shop with a deli/bakery section selling grab and go goodies, breakfast sandwiches as well as other sandwiches and hosting dinner pop-ups with local businesses featuring delicious BBQ, steak, and other sundries AND they have a soft serve ice cream stand?! I've died and gone to heaven. My husband ordered a burger with fries - delicious burger with hand-cut fries that he adored and I had the breakfast biscuit sandwich with cheese, egg, and sausage. Sooo good! We sat outside on the shaded patio and our toddler had a good time running around in the spaces and enjoying the fresh greenery and flowers. Staff were very friendly and patient, despite the crowd at the time and food was fresh and delicious and well worth a short wait. Delicious!

You can even look out the back windows and see some of the water which really adds a special touch. The staff were amazing .

East Forty Farm and Dairy sells fresh meats and cheeses, the latter under Lakin's Gorges Cheese. We had the privilege of meeting Allison, the cheese maker and owner, and she was incredible. Not only did she tell us all about the cheese and the process, but she also introduced us to her baby cows! It was a lovely experience, and we cannot wait to return for more cheese and try their pork. The cheese itself was delicious. We already ate the Rockweed and it was one of the best cheeses we've had! The middle was briny since Allison adds seaweed to it -- it doesn't get more "Maine" than that. The farm has a self-serve fridge that's cash only but if you ring, Allison will come out and you can pay by card. Lovely spot, lovely people, delicious cheese.
