You could make a great spread for a party or special occasion with their utensils, plates and napkins. We spent about a half hour talking about cheeses and sampling several, learning about how they were made, with what products, the backstory to the cheeses and farms and so much more. It was wonderful! We came home with an assortment of cow, goat and sheep cheeses. We will definitely be back to try more!

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!!

They have an amazing,…read morerotating selection of delicious gourmet cheeses, additional refrigerated items such as pate & sausage, a ton of packaged goods such as crackers, jams, chips & non-alcoholic beverages, and kitchen items such as cutting & charcuterie boards, dish towels & hand crafted pottery. Yes, it's a little pricey but you're getting top quality goods. There are a few dedicated parking spaces directly in front of the store as well as on- street & public parking around Wayland Square. 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.

They even hooked us up with some baguettes since they were closing, and they baked the bread fresh every day. Win-win!!

Do not miss the small containers of cheese from Australia in oil in the refrigerator. Thanks to our other favorite cheese shop (Concord Cheese Shop - pals of Katie's) we call it Aussie Magic! The shop also has lots of yummy accompaniments to make a delicious charcuterie plate: crackers, salamis, pickles, spreads and dips - you name it!

You can see the manufacturing facility through a large windoe right behind the display case. Their red pepper scamorza is my new favorite cheese on the planet. I have to buy twice as much as I want because I eat half on my way home. I have a similar problem with the ricotta. Before it makes it to the mannicotti or lasagna it was intended for it will be devoured with crackers. Nevermind the fantastic caprese salads during the summer with the mozzarella. Even the crackers they sell are imported from Italy and are top notch.

Wolf Meadow Farm is unbelievable: a stunning transplant of a one-room caseificio from the Apennines…read moreof Italy to the New England town of Amesbury. Here Luca, Christina, and Hakim create artisanal cheeses that embody Carlo Petrini's Slow Food movement: food should be good, clean, and fair. There is an exuberance to their art. They know that their cheese-making improves the cows and environment, that their cheese protects and deepens the "cultura del formaggio", and that their products WILL amaze you by their deliciousness! I highly recommend the cheese-making classes as well. I'd pay just to hear Luca's commentary on life, much less to learn how to make cheese from him! Even after studying food in Italy, I've never come across anyone so passionate about dairy. You'll love the teaching on how cheese is made, the process of making it yourself, the wine, bread, and cheese provided to the students, and the block you get to take home. If you live in New England, come visit Wolf Meadow Farm!

The samples of the cheese are the best part! Prices are comparable to the Beverly Whole Foods, my next favorite cheese destination, however the staff here are 10 times as knowledgeable and kind, and the selection is much better. I asked about a cheese similar to my favorite, Cyprus Grove's Midnight Moon. They didn't have it in stock, but the one that I wound up buying (also the first that was recommended to me) I think I like even more! Yes, they have an excellent wine section that even includes nonalcoholic options, but I'll be easily drunk off cheese in the best way possible.
