Greenport Cannabis Co.
Cannabis store
👍👍 I have only stepped into the building a few times, and already can call this place home. The service is great, I find myself able to talk about anything, and am able to learn information about any of the products in the property. On top of this, the product is unbelievable. Their pre-rolls are amazi...

Renys Department Store
Department store
👍👍 This Renys has two stores. One has home goods and shoes on two floors. In the store across the street, they have men's, womens, and children's clothing. They are both fun to look through.

Best Thai Restaurant
Thai restaurant
👍👍 I am embarrassed to say it took me three years to try this restaurant, deliciousness I will never recover.
Anyways, we had the shrimp shumai and chicken pad Thai. The shrimp shumai was perfect, as was the pad Thai.
The waitress was very attentive and kept our water glasses full.
Looking forward...

Hannaford
Grocery store
😠 As an adult of age, I attempted to buy a bottle of liquor and a lemonade at around 8 PM for myself - the smallest size I could find of what I wanted. Unfortunately, despite having my legal of-age license, the manager rudely canceled my purchase (after being approved by the cashier) and told me that...

Oysterhead Pizza
Pizza restaurant
👍👍 Oysterhead Pizza is GOOD FOOD, all around.
We looooove eating their pizza, and often find ourselves getting the Ella Bee or the Thomas Sullivan Magnum III.
We recently ate on the deck and enjoyed the selection of on tap beers, pizza, a great salad, and some Damariscotta river breezes.
Inside scoo...

Lake Pemaquid Camping
Campground
😠 Cabins are small old and outdated for what you pay. They charge you $85 a day to rent a cart. Charge you to shower. They don’t allow visitors on certain weekends. The camp sites are right on top of each other. The pool couldn’t be more Cloudy. Some of the other campers were extremely volatile and ac...

Main Street Grocery
Grocery store
😠 I was a frequent customer there, however, I witnessed the most unprofessional behavior by the owner that I've made my last trip to Main Street Grocery. When you have to discipline an employee you do it privately not so everyone in the store can hear it. It was made abundantly clear that the own tri...

Larson's Lunch Box
American restaurant
👍👍 The place to go for a lobster roll — they also have other good food items. Typically they close for the winter in early October.
