Allen Insurance and Financial

Our mission at Allen Insurance and Financial…

…is to be the local company that individuals and businesses in the community seek out first for advice, information, and education on all insurance and financial services issues. We work hard every day to earn their trust in our knowledge, expertise and professionalism.

As an employee-owned business, we care deeply about our families, employees and the businesses we serve. Since 1866, we have forged strong relationships with our clients of Midcoast Maine — many for three generations or more. We work not only with clients locally but also insure passenger-carrying vessels and their employees all over the world. We are licensed in virtually every state in the United States.

Our goal is always to exceed our clients’ expectations and build long-term relationships by guiding clients through an analysis of their needs and then creating a plan that most effectively meets their specific situation and goals.

In addition to financial, retirement and estate planning, we can help with home and auto insurance; insurance for business; health, dental and life insurance as well as short- and long-term disability insurance and other ancillary insurances.

Our financial planning and wealth management division is known as Allen Wealth Management. 

Our Team.

Welcome to Brady’s, where the locals come to meet and eat!

Our caring and committed staff will ensure you have a fantastic experience with us.

Come down to 25 Union Street at the very head of the harbor and take in the view from the cozy dining room and maybe get a glimpse of ‘George’, our resident Blue Heron.  The weather is changing and fall is upon us.  Come see what Downeast Magazine readers voted best of Maine 2019.

We refuse to compromise on quality in our restaurant. That's why we source our fresh ingredients from local fisherman and farmers.
