Stone Soup

My husband & I live out of state. Our grandson lives in Bar Harbor. We were looking for quality gifts that could be purchased over the phone and picked up by our grandson’s parents. I called and spoke to Shirley. I explained what I was looking for and she promptly offered to text me pics of items they had in the store. From there, I made my selections and she wrapped them up, so they were ready for pick up on the very same day! Amazing service! I’ll certainly keep Stone Soup at the top of my list when I’m shopping for birthdays and holidays! Thank you, Shirley!

We came in here after I saw a cute little onesie with lobsters all over. I wanted to get it for my nephew. Unfortunately, they didn’t have his size. I guess it was a good thing because I looked at the price and saw that it was $ 38! I could’ve easily went to a fabric store, found a print just like it and sewed it myself for cheaper than that.
We decided to buy a little organic dump truck for my husband’s nephew instead and when we went to pay for it, the cashier (an older lady) was a little rude. She barely said a word to us, was more than happy to snatch my debit card out of my hand and then throw it back on the counter with the receipt so I could sign for it. Ugh… rude.
Yeah, no… I think I’ll save my money and go elsewhere next time I decide to buy any toys or souvenirs for family. It’s all overpriced in there.

Since we have a nephew on the way, we decided to stop in at Stone Soup to looks st their cute selection of infant clothing and toys.
This shop in the heart of Bar Harbor is packed with a great selection of children’s clothing, toys, accessories and books. Everything in the shop is high quality and it is clear that they have put in a lot of time picking out unique items for their store.
The only critique on our end was that since this is a boutique type store, the cost is fairly high. We love the quality of the items, but our pocket couldn’t support a huge shopping spree. That being said, we encourage anyone looking for children’s items to at least drop by and check out the selection.
