On a recent cruise we had a port stop in Rockland, ME. Instead of doing an excursion we decided to…read moredo one of those "go down this street and right" excursions where you make everything up as you. Since it was between breakfast and lunch we decided to stop into Atlantic Baking for a coffee and a pastry. Atlantic Baking is an unassuming shop right along what I'm going to consider a main street through Rockland. Not necessarily THE main street, but the Main-est we saw, so I'm sticking with that. Inside are several cases of pastries, breads, rolls, donuts and other baked goods that looked at me as if to say "I dare you". There was a cinnamon roll-ish thing that looked really good, and a Vanilla latte are what talked to me most. The staff (two young ladies on this morning) were busy hustling and, even with that, were helpful as they tried to keep taking care of customers. The vanilla latte was SUE-PERB, albeit a bit hot for my taste (had it let is cool first). As we sat having our halfway-between-breakfast-and-lunch-but-not-really-brunch snack there was a steady stream of customers, I'm guessing about 50/50 regulars and cruisers. Aside from pastries, coffees and teas, there's a cooler with canned/bottle beverages for the on-the-go beverage drinker. With as much activity as was going on during our visit you'd think it'd be difficult to keep clean, but there was a gentleman who came out frequently to take care of emptied tables, trash, etc. There are windows into the baking area, proving that they've got nothing to hide. Most everything is made on site with fresh, natural ingredients by people who take pride in what they do. Atlantic Baking is a charming place and a nice stop for a mid-morning snack

The breakfast biscuit sandwich was THE BEST biscuit you will ever have the pleasure of enjoying. Granted, my opinion is that it was perfect for the sandwich, it wouldn't be dense enough for sausage gravy. It would have to be a topper rather than getting slathered if you know what I mean. I went lighter and got a blueberry scone which was equally as delicious just satisfying my sweet tooth vs his savory one that morning. Anyway, we loved it so much while we were eating I went back inside and grabbed two more scones - a blueberry and fig/almond for us to have the following morning for sunrise at Cadillac. Their lattes were also wonderful. I would shop here regularly if I was a local but for now the best I can do is rave about this place on the internet.

The prosciutto was tangy and satisfying on the roll with butter. The sandwich is made already, and by the register so you don't forget to pick one up. Let me also say that the potato salad was stellar--the dill was a nice touch. The cookies were fantastic as well. I normally don't go for little specialty stores, but this one was reasonably priced in every way. The staff was friendly and pleasant. Go there. You won't be sorry.

This is also known as home kitchen bakery. It's part of the home kitchen cafe. Their #1 cold sub is…read moremy #1 for life. I first went here when it was in the adjoining room as close to home. I think there was difficulty staffing that (a common problem in Maine) so they have scaled down. The sandwiches are phenomenal. Only served until 2:30 each day. The hot peppers, balsamic vinegar and oil make these sandwiches. Make sure you just get everything on your sandwich. The service is still quite slow, which is probably due to staffing but it's an issue. There are many gluten free options but it is not a gluten free bakery. No outside food is allowed (don't bring in your Wasses!) Be a real Mainer and chomp those down in your car.

Normally I'd add avocado to a standard egg and cheese breakfast sandwich, so I appreciated that this came on it with carmelized onions. It stayed together well while I ate it and wasn't messy. My partner ordered the Avocado Toast and enjoyed the harissa olive oil on it, plus the fresh sourdough. It didn't take too long after ordering to get our food (but it wasn't busy), and there were a lot of seating options to eat there. They have a good selection of dry goods, particularly featuring local brands, and is a great place to stock up on goodies. Staff was friendly and the signage for where to order and pick up food was clear to prevent backups. Highly recommend Main Street Market!

We custom ordered a pumpkin ginger loaf with hazelnuts and looked forward to enjoying it. We picked it up on Thursday and ate a slice on Friday. Besides the loaf being badly overcooked and burnt, this caused us some stomach insertion and discomfort. Not sure why but they are so kind so this is not my first choice. Nevertheless this should not have been sold to us if they care about all customers, locals and tourist alike, like we were. I decided to have a second slice this morning to see if Friday's stomach discomfort was a fluke but again the same thing happened. We just tossed the loaf into the garbage can. No hate just love but apparently the $10.99 ($8.99 plus $2.00 tip) means more to them than their reputation. Sorry but you left us no choice. Good luck and wish you well!

The storefront is adorable with its red barn color and Victorian vibe, and inside you'll find cozy seating areas both indoors and outdoors, perfect for lingering a bit after shopping. The staff here are beyond friendly and helpful. In fact, this is the very place where the "blueberry pie survey" happened. We asked the lady behind the register where to find the best blueberry pie, and she started to ask customers who came by who they recommended. They directed us to Moody's Diner. Locals and staff alike are quick to share stories and recommendations, which makes it feel like you're part of the community even if you're just passing through. The store itself is full of surprises. They've got a wood-burning pizza oven (yes, in a general store, how cool is that?), hot lattes, teas, and other comforting drinks, because nothing beats sipping a latte in a Victorian-style shop while digging into a fresh out of the wood burning oven gooey cheesy slice of pizza. Add in their great selection of beer and wine, plus Maine classics like whoopie pies and Moxie soda, and you've got something for everyone. A local gentleman even gave me the full history of Moxie, and that kind of friendliness is exactly what makes this place so special. Outside, you'll find pretty flowers and herbs adding to the charm. Owen's is quaint, welcoming, and one of those stops that makes a Maine trip extra memorable. Definitely worth a visit or 5! I'll most def be going back!
