Amazing shop! Walked in and was so overwhelmed at all the amazing and high quality items ans clothing. And the fact that you're supporting a local artist is even better. We will be back! 🥰

I work around the corner, and pop in to grab a sticker or magnet as a little dopamine treat every so often. The staff are wicked friendly and authentically enthusiastic about the designers and artists (all local too, bub). Looking for a raccoon or squirrel-themed hoodie? Boom! How about a Golden Gulls coffee mug for the Golden Girls fan in your life? Yeah, they’ve got those. I always leave with a sunnier disposition than when I entered. 10 stars.

On our trip to Maine, we stopped in several stores in Portland but this one was absolutely the best. The staff were incredible, super kind, knowledgeable, and helpful.

Maine Souvenir Shop is a little fantastic shop that I was fortunate to come across. Unlike many other souvenir shops, Maine Souvenir Shop was unique and charming. The items and clothing in the store are made by local artists which I loved because of the unique quality. The owner was very appreciative , charismatic, and a genuine pleasure to speak with. It was one of my favorite shops during my visit to Portland.
