About Us
Bob’s has proudly served the Dover-Foxcroft community since 1974. What began as a local hardware and feed store has grown over the years into a trusted resource for animal and pet feeds, natural foods, vitamins, household essentials, and thoughtfully selected gifts for nearly every occasion.
Our store is located in the historic A. W. Gilman Grist Mill, beautifully situated along the banks of the Piscataquis River. Dating back to 1883, the building retains many of its original features, including the wood floors, grain elevators, and original milling equipment. The grist mill operated continuously from 1895 until the late 1960s, when it became home to Bob’s, blending history with a new chapter of community service.
We are proud to be part of the rich heritage of both this historic building and the Dover-Foxcroft community. At Bob’s, we remain committed to carrying traditions forward while honoring the past - serving our neighbors with care, quality products, and a deep appreciation for our roots.
