Tiller & Rye

I am disappointed I discovered this gorgeous shop AFTER having eaten a full meal in Bangor. If only I had held on for 10 minutes, I would have indulged in a bunch of deliciousness offered here.
The shop is such a gem! It made me giddy to see all the cool Maine products and also to see that things I already used like Poland Springs and Toms are from Maine.
This shop is better than most grocers because it has the character of beautiful Maine. Very beautiful and enticing. If I lived in Maine, I would do all my weekly shopping here.

First of all ....
The whole store smells ahhh- mazing!
I'm obsessed with their maple syrup selections, I'm also a Rewards member shopper, provided a phone number you can build points for a $10 off Redemption at the checkout register. I frequently shop for fresh farm milk, this includes the chocolate milk, they're Fresh Dairy creamer, and sheeps milk! 🐑

This store truly elevates the standard for grocery shopping and is a must-visit for anyone in Bangor seeking high-quality, local goods.

Great place to get local goods and items you may not find at other stores in the area. I usually come here for my spices, natural foods, and local produce/breads.

Wonderful store filled with loads of options that are mainly locally/nationally sourced

I apologize about the previous rating. Did not realize I had pressed anything. My experience there today was nothing but great.

Wonderful local grocery story with great selection. I stopped on my way from Bangor Airport before a week on Mount Desert Island. Excellent selection of local meats, and nice local produce (some of the best carrots I've ever had). I was able to get everything on my list for the week. I cook a lot and the bulk section of spices were a bonus because I was able to get a wide variety in small quantities. Local Maine honey, salt, and cream were also appreciated.
Extra shout out for amazing customer service. Thank you, Tiller & Rye.

This store has amazing customer service and wide variety of specialty items I love ❤

Very cool lace friendly staff awesome local selection

I've been coming here from about 2016. Originally only for the excellent coffee selection. Then I tried the meat and sweets. About a 10 minute walk from my house I reach a place that gives their customers a place of belonging. The only weird there is when I show up. Really incredible staff. It's a good adventure.

Oh don't forget the goat kefir lol

Wonderful environment, helpful staff. Only place I've been able to find Organic raw, grass-fed Jersey milk and cream. Lots of hard to find organic items. I go here at least weekly now!

Natural and organic grocery store. Cafe was closed when we came. They have some interesting items such as local made nitro cold brew, growlers for kombucha and bulk olive oil.

This is true gem in this area, many organic & vegetarian choices. Excellent choice of dried items to purchase in bulk. Incredible selection of coffees and teas. Ready made food to go. I selected Cherry Overnight Oats, it was so delicious I ate it cold!!

Great selection of not so ordinary items . Love that place !

Great little store. A combination of grocery store, specialty products, local wares and large microbrew beer/wine section. Worth a stop to check it out.

Recently got on a health kick- this place has been amazing. The smoothies are so refreshing- the sandwiches were delicious.

I also found out they have my favorite milk- smiling farm. This place is awesome, if you haven't already, check them out.

Lovely store! Staff are very kind and easy to talk to, all produce is clean and fresh, and packaged items are in great condition! They sell a great range of products that are all worth every penny.

I was visiting the area, and I needed some good local raw milk and grass-fed meat. I found Tiller & Rye, and it was the best! For three months, it was my to-go for everything I needed. Organic produce and grains, oats, olive oil, all kinds of meats, raw dairy, cheeses, kefir. And books, T-shirts, soaps, and supplements. You guys made me happy, and I wish I lived in the area to keep going there every week. Thank you for everything!

My first time going there today. Absolutely love it. A diverse selection of anything from foods to soaps to stuff for your pets and so much more. Lots of small local products to buy. Can't wait to go back.

I was so happy to find this place on my road trip! Great selection of local, organic, vegan foods, beautiful local produce. Humane meats and cheeses. Decent prices. The CBD oil selection was cool! Very clean store and friendly staff. I wish I had an independent grocery store like this in my own town!
