Walking into the Dorset Union Store is like taking a step back in time. The store looks much like it did when it first opened in 1816 - at least from the outside!
Perry Peltier took sole ownership of the store in 1955 and changed the name to Peltier's Market, but to the locals it was just Peltier's. When Jay and Terri Hathaway bought the store in 1977, they kept the name, ran the store, and raised their three children in the rooms upstairs.
Gretchen and I purchased the store in 2007 and decided to restore its original name. We strive to stay true to the authentic character of a General Store while expanding our wine room, bakery, and deli.
Whether you're out of milk, hungry for lunch, or looking for dinner-to-go for a party of eight, I'd think we've got you covered.
Stop in and see us soon.
