If I need something specific I always try Reny's first. It's a true Adventure here. Reny's has been a staple of my life, and I have lived in various towns across the state and visited MANY. Spent my childhood in Farmington, and so those are my earliest memories. I spent my teen years in Damariscotta, and graduated with the company famous and amazing Faustine Reny! Thanks for always having what I need and things that I didn't know I needed until I found it. Always exceptional customer service and even better value for the money read more

See all

I am a very disgruntled ex customer for years I shopped at the Portland Reny's it was kind of like my therapy I refuse to accept the reason they closed was due to theft; several visits resulted in free merchandise due to the cashier's error in not knowing they had not scanned the merchandise properly some of the staff I found to be very rude by following people around once a transgender was very rude because I called them by the name I knew them as before they changed their name it was an honest mistake upon their closing they hired a person for the last month and I felt that if all or at least some of their employees had been like this individual they could have been a huge success!!! I witnessed drug transactions in the rear of the store by an employee whom I later found out had a key to the store read more

This is by far the best outlet of this chain I have visited so far. Of course the town is charming and the selection changes regularly. I found Smart wool socks at a great price! Plus for us tourists they had a nice selection of souvenirs and my personal favorite Christmas ornaments. Highly recommend! read more

LOVE THIS JOINT, when I lived in Bath while building the mighty USS Mahan DDG-72, I frequented Renys almost everyday. It was my spot to buy whatever I needed. read more

An absolute must shop when in Bath. It's the perfect combo of old school department and grocery store. Love that it's quirky - our family has come for years and we always have to compare our finds - what was the deal of the trip? The 3 t-shirts for $10, cute paper goods or yard art, wide selection of spices, cookies or cooking items. Hope they continue to keep its charm by offering unusual items & allow you the hunt of finding something unique each trip. read more

We love this store. They have a little bit of everything. From my grandson's favorite cookies to winter boots.

Reny's is awesome! Thank you Reny's and in particular "Joe" who helped me squash into my little hatchback a kiddie pool! I never thought it would fit! Woo wee! It did and it is working out just fine. Filled up and in use! LOVE RENY'S!!! read more

A Maine Adventure! How can anyone not love Renys? The Bath location is great. They recently renovated the inside of the store adding a new bathroom and fixing the building to highlight some of the historical charm that had been covered for years. As far as go to items, good buys on canned goods, snacks, and candles. I also snagged a few electric blankets last year for a reeeeally good price too. Other than that, they have great prices all around. read more

This is my favorite Renys!!! Super clean and organized. We do a lot of Christmas shopping here in the Fall months. Conveniently located, and easy to find. read more

this renys is so cute and classic. they have tons of fun stuff to check out. multi-level. would recommend

This is one of my favorite Reny's. It is two floors and the clothes are on the street level and everything else is in the basement level. Great selection of Carhartt and Columbia. Many different kinds of boots and ASICS running shoes. Great prices. Friendly employees that know where everything is. It is also in a real old department store that is a really cool building. Great location right on Front Street. I love Reny's. read more

Thank you to Reny's in Bath for saving Christmas for me. We ran out of Christmas lights when last minute decorating the tree and they are sold out EVERYWHERE. Called Renys this morning and they let me know they just got a shipment last night and were stocked up. Thank you Renys!! read more

I enjoyed strolling through the store and taking in the regional offerings. I was surprised how long we were in the store as I figured we were just passing through. An all purpose store (outdoor equipment, clothes, food and Christmas decorations on display). If you want to know what is popular in Maine, stop in for a visit. read more

Reny's is a pretty sweet place to kill some time and find some bargains. They have a bit of everything, and it's all at bargain basement prices. It's a very no-frills store, with all the merch packed in pretty tightly- a little hard to manuever in there sometimes, but that just adds to the feeling of treasure hunting. The employees are just about the happiest, friendliest crew I've ever seen. They strike a good balance of helpfulness: if you need help, they're there for you, and if not, they leave you to shop in peace. Yeah, this place pretty much rocks. read more

The Maine adventure! They truly have everything you could possibly need at reasonable prices. I have purchased everything from cake holders to snow shovels here. They have a wonderful selection of Carharts at great prices. Great place to get all of your seasonal needs (wrapping paper, Halloween candy, Easter decorations, etc...) I often find myself just going to the store to see what they have not necessarily because I need anything. read more

Reny's is an old school discount department store. Pre WalMart as someone below mentioned. They have good variety of brand names at a cheaper price, sample sale type stuff with the brand crossed off the tag but you can find Levi's, Lucky Brand, Forever 21, good stuff. This was my place to go when I was a kid and wanted a cheap model airplane building kit. They always had a good toy collection. And they still have the Lions Club 1cent chiclet machine! Can't beat that. read more

Stopped in and was pleasantly surprised what a useful store this is even while on vacation. Make sure you're driving and not flying because you'll find some goodies to want to take home. read more

This is a convenient Front St. store more for tourists than for locals IMO. Meaning it has the most browsing area than any of the other shops on this street. I stopped in for black Sharpies but they don't have them. So they don't have "everything" but almost. It's a good alternative from the IGA down the street if you need large size hair conditioner (if staying at a hotel) or a nice canvas tote. I found a couple of cute mugs. Seemed like the only ones people were buying. Ceramic but they mimic tin camp mugs in red with a 3D embossed type decoration of a lobster on the front with a wide black wide rim. So I grabbed the last 2 on the shelf. What is odd (or normal) is that all the Maine nick nacks are made in China but may be designed in Maine. If you need a lemon and lime manual squeezer grab one in here. One unique one sits on the counter on rubber feet and it's what else yellow. For those who have never been in Bath Me. you can park behind the store and enter the downstairs entrance and access Front St also. So I exited the downstairs door and soon as I walked out (strange part) a man was parked in an older gold, I think, car with a white beard and waved at me and then immediately drove away. I have never been here before so I don't know what was up with that. He wasn't waving to anyone else since I was alone. It seemed odd to me since it bordered on intimidation since he was staring right at me. If it wasn't for that I would have 4 stars on this review. So not A-OK-just 3 stars. read more

how can you not like renys? you have to make the trip if you're from the area. every summer when I visit maine, we stop here at least once. like others have mentioned, it's like an old school department store. they have everything from candy to apparel and the prices cannot be beat; even at Walmart. and it's very quaint and the staff is very friendly and helpful. read more

Reny's had old school clothes drying racks set out on the sidewalk and we wanted one, but we wanted to check out the rest of the store to see if there was anything else we wanted. We went inside and said, "Excuse me, we want to buy one the racks on the sidewalk." We got a disgusted look and a snotty, "Well, you're going to have to grab it and bring it in." We hadn't known if we should do that or not, geesh. We brought it in and asked another employee if we could leave it somewhere while we shopped. She was very nice and helpful, and put it behind the main register. As we shopped downstairs, a gentleman asked he could help us find anything, very polite. The store has a little bit of everything downstairs - laundry, food, bedding, great place if you're staying in a cabin or other rental. The upstairs is pretty much all clothing (like Champion brand, not cheap Walmart quality) and shoes. We went to the register to make our purchases, and the cashier seemed to be annoyed that we were actually making her do her job. So, the store is a good place to know about, but there's a 50/50 shot at getting a helpful, polite employee or a snotty attitude, and that's why only 3 stars and that's pushing it. read more
