New Gloucester Village Store is a historic building in New Gloucester, Maine, built in 1890.[1] It is part of the New Gloucester Historic District.

Located on Intervale Road (Maine State Route 231)[2] at its intersection with Gloucester Hill Road and Cobbs Bridge Road, it originally served as an important meeting and marketplace for the community. It also served as the neighborhood post office.[3] As of 2025, the building is vacant, having previously been Intervale Pizza.

Between 2008 and 2022, it was New Gloucester Village Store, owned by New Gloucester native Sam Coggeshall.[3][4] Coggeshall will reopen the store in May 2026.[5]

A television commercial for Humpty Dumpty Snack Foods was shot at the location in the 1990s.[6]
