Freeport, Maine is so much more than great shopping. Yes, we’ve got that covered – from national brand outlets, to locally-owned boutiques, upscale shops, fabulous treats and goodies, and everything in between. After you’ve spent time strolling the village of Freeport for great deals and just-right treasures, why not make it an evening? Relax around a delicious meal, and then take in some music or a movie.

Catch an intimate live show at Cadenza. This music venue keeps audience size small and the talent diverse from folk to big band and salsa to classic rock.

See a new release or classic movie at Nordica Theater. The theater features an all digital sight & sound experience with rocking-glider high back seats and stadium seating for unobstructed views.

Freeport has your fresh air dining covered complete with fire pits at the Harraseeket Inn’s Broad Arrow Tavern, and Linda Bean’s Maine Kitchen & Topside Tavern. Prefer people watching? Then check out the Main Street patio at the Tuscan Brick Oven Bistro or Lobster Cooker. On Depot St., you’ll find Petrillo’s patio dining complete with housemade Italian favorites.

Grab a pint and a more casual meal with any of our local breweries. Veteran-owned Stars & Stripes often hosts food trucks, Maine Beer Company is ranked as one of the World’s Best Breweries, Gritty’s Freeport has lawn games, live music and trivia nights to keep things interesting, and downtown you’ll find Brickyard Hollow’s creative pizzas and coordinating pints.

If a picnic is more your style, grab a bottle of wine or pick up local beer at Bow Street Market along with sushi, salads or sandwiches and find a picnic table or park bench.

Stunning late-day skies are waiting for you at Winslow Park, Wolfe’s Neck Woods State Park and the South Freeport Town Landing.
