The proprietress helped us to complimentary samples…read moreof cheeses to try - and helped us narrow down our choices: a lusciously creamy and mild bleu (Cambozola Black), an equally creamy and luscious triple cream (Trillium), and a snappy slightly sweet aged Gouda (Beemster XO). Plus they had a number of interesting salumi so I grabbed a wild boar salami and a truffled salami. All of these were excellent that evening with our simple repast of mushroom soup and good crusty bread. Yum! We'll be back ...

Cheese is one of my favorite snacks, so of course I had to stop by! I had seen this place in a…read morevideo before visiting Wickford Village and wanted to check it out for myself. Even though it was the off-season, the store was surprisingly busy. They have so many different varieties of cheese, and I loved that they had plenty of samples already cut up with toothpicks so you could try them before buying. I sampled a few, and they were excellent! I will say, the smell when you first walk in is definitely strong, not necessarily the best smell, but it is a cheese shop after all! Besides cheese, they also carry sauces, pastas, and several other specialty items. The lady working at the counter was very friendly and helpful. I didn't purchase anything on this visit because I mainly wanted to stop in, look around, and experience this well-known local spot. If you're visiting Wickford Village and you're a cheese lover like me, it's definitely worth popping in and sampling a few!

5 Stars because I am DREAMING about this shop a week later. Pro-tip: Ask about the sourdough bread…read morefrom a bakery in NY! The moment you walk in to this shop you are very much aware that they specialize in high quality cheese. It's stinky, y'all. But in the best way! There are samples everywhere (grab a toothpick thooo!) and the cheeses range in prices. I'd think this is the perfect spot to hit up before a dinner party or for a killer hostess gift. They also have tons of artisanal pastas, crackers, butter, etc. David helped us as we were actually in search of a really good loaf of sourdough. He explained that their loaves come from a bakery in NY that has used the same starter for over 100 years. They get the loaves parbaked so they can bake them fresh in the shop. You can opt for a full loaf or half, OR get it parbaked and finish it at your house for a fresh baked loaf at home! If I lived within 30 minutes of this shop, I'd be back for the bread alone. The staff is super knowledgeable and seemed eager to help explain any specialty item (with tastings!). This will be a MUST next time I'm in RI!

They responded to my Instagram messages when they were restocking, which was an awesome start. When I arrived, I was pleased to find such a sweet shop with some any wonderful things. I ended up getting some recommendations from them on what to buy for an afternoon snack, and then I posted up on the couch with my cheese and crackers while I enjoyed them. There are all sorts of cheeses and accoutrements, along with gift options, speciality groceries, etc. If you find yourself in the area, it's a great choice!!

The staff is always friendly & helpful. I've attended fun events there, such as their annual anniversary celebration & cheese bingo. Lovely place when you feel like treating yourself.

Cheese. It's probably my weakness! I've been coming here without any plan in mind what I'm going to…read moreget. Last time I came here - I based my haul on what flavors and textures I wanted. I had some soft rind runny types and I wanted a sharp and salty hard type. The Gouda Roomano was soooo delicious. Really makes me drool thinking about it. I also got a sample of tête de moine. The taste is really sharp and bitter. I opted not to buy it (you need a special contraption that's only used for that type of cheese). But when I got home I was craving it. Maybe next time I'll ask them to cut me a few curls and I'd buy it that way. This time I chose cheeses based on looks. I got the Guinness cheddar. It has a contrasting dark coloring with light colored cheese bits. It's reminded me of stained glass. Next I got the Gjetost. It's a Norwegian cheese that looks and tastes like caramel. Mind blowing! The Barely Buzzed cheese is coated with an espresso lavender powder. The lavender is undetectable to me. I also got a Purple Haze (in the refrigerator). It's a goat milk cheese with lavender and fennel pollen. Sounds interesting. I haven't tried it yet. But I spent a good part of the hour just cutting off tiny bits of all of the other cheeses and savoring them slowly. The fig cake above the cheese display caught my attention and I bought a slice of that for my lactose intolerant hubby. I got about a 1/4 pound slice for $3.84. Worth it!!

Aldi's is a discount grocery store. Not a lot of 'visual fluff'. It's organized and the aisles are…read moresigned. The cashiers are FAST. They do not provide bags. At all. If you want a bag, you bring one, or you buy a reusable one. Groceries are placed by the cashier into a cart, you pay and go off to the back counter where you will pack your own bags, or just wheel out to your car and transfer them directly. Bring a quarter to 'unlock' your cart. You get the quarter back when you return your cart. Fresh produce is right inside the door and is usually good quality. They offer organic produce from time to time. I always look through the entire area. Things get moved around in this section. They now have premade pizza here too. The Aldi brand is sometimes a national brand, re-packaged. Same food, different package. So give the Aldi brand a try and see if you like it. They carry all the foods: snacks, canned veg and fruit, baking ingredients, spices (selection varies), salad dressings, ice cream, meats, etc. The dairy section includes a variety of milk including alternatives, a selection of eggs, yogurt, lots of cheeses. Meats include bacon, turkey bacon, chicken sausage, all beef hot dogs, cold cuts. Their coffee and tea selection is small, but good and they carry sparkling waters and hydration products like Gatorade. Frozen foods include pre-made meals, burgers, vegetables and desserts. There is no 'bakery' or 'deli' here. But the items you would get there may be available here as a pre-packaged item. Check all around because sometime items are put where there is space, not where you expect them to be located. For example, I once found organic cream near the cold cuts instead of in the dairy section. A 'specials' aisle near the middle of the store changes frequently and includes anything from toys to household storage, candles to cookware, etc. Once it's gone, it's gone, so check each time you visit. I always walk the whole store because some days they have a national brand I buy that they don't often carry. You just never know. The parking area can get a bit much. The space is shared with Good Will next door and is often full. There are only two Stop signs at a four way intersection near the exit/entrance and drivers often cruise through there like they are on a private drive. Keep your eyes open for these daredevils and stop at the intersection just in case one is nearby. Only one cashier is usually manned. There is a second checkout lane that sometimes is opened for particularly busy moments. It depends on staff availability. If there is a delivery happening for example, there will be no second cashier. There are four self-check out kiosks with no limit on the number of items you can scan. These kiosks only take credit cards. Lines move fairly quickly. Like any grocery store, be a smart shopper. Items like meat may be a dollar cheaper per pound here. Fresh berries may be half as much. You may also find items cheaper at other locations; Job Lot for example. Shop around, find out what is the best price for your pantry items and make it part of your shopping routine.

So I've been here a handful of times to this…read morelocation and I usually get lucky and someone will just give me their carriage when I forget my quarter, but this time I went in and asked if I could borrow a quarter which online it said you can do, and the cashier was so nice and I promised I would give the quarter back, which indeed I did and they seemed shocked. But any-who, this location is always very nicely stocked and I seem to find an employee on the floor whenever I need one whenever I have a question, which excites me. My sister is the one who put me on to Aldi, the prices are amazing and am able to stretch the money I have and get quality items, which makes me happy in this economy right now. They do charge for bags but I bring my own, so that's never an issue. I just hate having to bag my stuff since I do a full shop here but that's okay. The food items are of good quality, and they taste great. Honestly every since I started coming here I don't go to the other markets. This location does get packed really easily, but they open lines very quickly. As soon as they see lines starting to grow, they open registers and the employee scan very rapidly, it seems like a race and I am shocked at how quickly they scan and get you In and out. The atmosphere here is not bad, can get a hit chaotic but for the most part everyone is nice and courteous. Give this Aldi's a go it's a nice size as well and the produce always seems fresh!
