The Philbrook Place 162 Main Street, Bethel, ME 04217

"Plan to spend some time looking around to discover all the gems contained within this historic building."

"Great place to explore. They have so many things to choose from. Great book nook, children's science area and Maine jewelry. I always leave with something."

"Love coming in to see all the different shops nestled into one, they have a consignment shop for sports/hiking/biking gear and just regular clothes. Or even another shop for local handmade goods! Definitely check this place out if you are in the area."

"The go-to place for gifts, art & clothes, Philbrook Place is the friendly, warm-hearted core of Bethel Main St imo. You can just browse or find the exact right gift and/or card for anyone you know from their selection of hand-made, unique, humorous, cute, practical meaningful to the area crafts at every price range for every age. Unique earrings! Also original artwork, photographs & artisanal pieces like etched glasses are housed in the Barn Collective at the back, a secret stash of local talent. And wow the consignment shop, including sports gear for all ages, hands down best selection of beautiful clothes (sweaters, jeans from there I always get compliments on) that I’ve ever seen & I’ve seen a lot of them… Sometimes they also host special arts events indoors and outdoors. Just thought I’d put in a good word for this place as I would be sad if it were suddenly vacant, the way things go these days. Photo of handmade earrings- a cool gift from a visit last summer."

"This place is awesome! They have cool trinkets/gifts, toys and games, clothes, ski equipment, and other novelties. I visited quite a view giftshop type places in the area, and this was my favorite."
