If you visit Belfast, you might want to print out the Museum in the Streets map on the attached website or check with the Belfast Historical Society at 10 Market Street to see if they have a printed guide. The signs are in both English and French.There are 30 panels with old...
Jeweled Turret Inn
Dabs Says:
Even if you are not planning on staying in Belfast, be sure to go by the Jeweled Turret Inn, a beautiful Victorian home built in 1898 for a local attorney, James S. Harriman. The inn is named for the jewel like stained glass in one of the turrets.
Porcupine Emporium
BabciaMaine Says:
The wooden carvings outside this shop appear to be recent creations mirroring the barnacle encrusted ones at the harbor shore. Be sure to search out both
The Weathervane: Not Leaving Hungry!

When arriving in Belfast this was the first place I tried for lobster. I was not disappointed. They serve you a lot of food while having fun. The Weathervane was started years ago and has been a well known mom and pop restaurant that has blossomed into many restaurants owned...
The Three Tides: Fancy Diggings!
painterdave Says:
I have eaten here twice, liked the ambience, the staff and mainly the food. They have some great appetizers besides the seafood fare that is the standard for coastal Maine. The Tides has two eating areas, one lower kind of for groups, and one upper on a deck. While the view...

Young's Lobster Shore Pound Wharf: Get Lobsters Here

Young's Lobster Pound: Eat at a lobster pound
Dabs Says:
Maine is famous for it's lobster pounds, I'm not sure if they are all like this one but I suspect they are similar. This is absolutely no frills dining, you park in the dirt lot, enter what can best be described as a hangar, look around at rows and rows of sea green...
Coyote Moon: Whimsical accesories and more
painterdave Says:
This shop is what I would term a "womans" shop with clothes, "accesories" and what they term as whimsical kind of things. Whimsical.....well, they get a lot of folks coming in who are tourists, and if you are into whimsical, I recommend it.
The things here are not from a...

Watch out for Canadians posing as giant lobsters!
Dabs Says:
Oddly, Robert seemed to enjoy having his picture taken in goofy poses, I rarely had to even ask him to pose with giant lobsters or poke his head into one of those tourist cutouts. But I don't think he wanted me to take a picture with my camera as well as his...
