I can't recall if there is wine here lol. Although, you have to appreciate two things. One, it's by Salem Wharf and a must go-to stop on Halloween to mix Jack & Coke for the streets. Two, it's the site of a former funeral home which was a speakeasy during prohibition. Come on guy, it doesn't get better than that!

Speaking of chocolate, it's the local spot for me to go for my treats from home (Crunchie and Aero, I'm looking at you). They always remember me which is a very nice touch. I definitely come in on a basis from nearby Swampscott, but I am sure they have more regular regulars in a city of locals. The attentiveness is so appreciated! They even ordered a product I told them I'd be happy to see in stock! I am sure other reasons went into that choice, but it definitely brought my experience to the next level! In sum, amazing selection, very well curated, and the service is out of this world. Excited that they've opened a new store, because nothing makes me happier than seeing a small business succeed. Most of all, success of a small business well executed by great people who are passionate and good at what they do! Can't wait to check out the Reading location.

I am a fan of beer and their make your own six pack section (lots of craft/microbrews) gets me very excited. My GF, who I love and is very sweet, and I had been dating a few months and I had this dream: I'm following her into Cosgrove's, I have a red shopping basket, she goes right to the first aisle closest to the door. As I stand there she eagerly dumps bottle after tiny bottle of Sutter Home wine (the kind that comes in a four pack minus the cardboard holder) into the basket. It's like an endless flow of little bottles and my arm is getting tired but I sense she is serious. The basket is near overflowing, I can hardly hold it off the ground I ask, "what are you going to do with all these small bottles?". To which she very strongly replies, "I'm gonna fucken drinkem that's what!!"
