One Maine grocery stop on this list built its name on sauerkraut. Yes, the humble fermented cabbage somehow became the headliner, and I love that more than I can explain. The rest of the lineup gets just as fun. One market runs a full-service butcher counter beside rows of local goods. Another bakes fresh desserts in the middle of a harbor town, and a co-op stocks bulk spices perfect for holiday cookies.

A third has been turning out old-school cakes and pastries long enough to earn a reputation as an enduring local favorite.

Snow crab legs, lobster, oysters, and a cotton candy machine all live under one roof. I think that combo could wake up anybody’s inner kid. If you ask me, nobody ever outgrows the trip-day grin. It just waits for the right excuse, and a seafood buffet in Maine is a pretty great one.
