The County Co-Op & Farm Store

Absolute gem of a store! You need to experience it to fully appreciate it. There's no way a review can tell you what it is like but I will try. They sell Aroostook County frozen meats, honey, maple syrup and produce. Shelf stable Maine products include coffee, pickles, hot fudge and more. They have lots of little home goods that you could never find at the big box stores up here. They seem to be a local fav for coffee, pastries and lunch. The elephant ear (a cinnamon pastry) was to die for and we thoroughly enjoyed our light lunch there. One of us ordered a quinoa confetti salad and the other a bruschetta special on baguette. The atmosphere is so quaint and recalls a general store of the past but with a cozy artsy feeling. It's located in a historic storefront in the square downtown which adds to the wonderful ambiance.

I came into Houlton for an oil change on my truck at 7am, only to find out that it would take longer than expected. I decided to take an early morning walk around downtown Houlton and discovered this little gem of a coffee shop-cafe-gift shop open for business. I was greeted by friendly staff that made you feel welcome and provided table service for that delicious piece of apple cake that I ordered at the counter. The cake was accompanied by one of their four, hot, fresh coffees they had available, to include decaf coffee!I highly recommend The County Co-Op for that early morning start up if you live locally or are just passing through the Houlton area.

Low rating because Pluto (or a variation of) is not only being de-planetized, this model is stuck inside a building with Goverment control (think it was a County agency). Support the local businesses in adjacent spaces!

Super nice place with food, coffee (hot/cold but no expresso), local product and nice staff. Sitting in a very old building, the place is awesome for having a quick bite and seeing local products and offerings. They do tend to close a bit early, but definitely worth visiting. They also have a place for local artisan/artists to present their creation.

Love this little place! Lots of local items and other great merchandise. A little bit of everything from crafts and gifts to spices and tea. Great sandwiches and baked goods. The vibe is always so happy, warm and welcoming. The staff is pleasant and friendly. I come once a month for the tomato pesto grilled cheese and I highly recommend it!

Honestly, this is not the best place ever, while many may like it for the gluten free & vegan kind of place it is, (hippie & millennial vibes). The food is over priced and tastes pretty bad. 3 stars for okay coffee and cleanliness, (and for understanding that other like the vibes & food, while i don’t).

It was wonderful! Enjoyed a delicious lunch there (spanikopita) and bought some coffee and beans to bake. I hope to go back again soon.

This is the second time that I have been in a coop to get a order and was spoken to like a child. Today I was told to get out of the store due to the fact that I'm moving too slow. I am disabled and diagnosed with early stages of multiple sclerosis. I did go outside and talk to a friend of mine, my food was brought out to me and then the door was slammed right behind me by the person who brought the food. This was uncalled for I doubt I ever go back.

Nice people, and they had some very tasty food. We arrived a little after lunchtime, so the selection was limited, but that is to be expected when they use such fresh ingredients.

I had a rather tasty bowl of chili here. Nice atmosphere and lots of various food items should you wish to do a bit of shopping as well.

Another place that has so much potential. Just has poor management. Severely overpriced.
