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.

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!

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.

We were told not to look at the cheese menu board on the wall, just pick out what's in the displays which is next to nothing. More cling wrap on cheese rinds than cheese itself.

McKinnon's up by Rye has an awesome cheese selection so there we will be from now on!

Labeled "Asiago Vintage" it shaved up perfectly for the pasta meal that I prepared. Delicious tasting and yummy with a rich nutty flavor. The label clearly shows how fresh it is, not even a week from the "Packed On" date.

If I get to Foxboro, I'll be heading to the Lawton's Family Farm to experience Foxboro Cheese company directly.

Perhaps it was just the day as the street sale was happening and the store was extra busy but I got attitude when I asked about a certain type of sandwich and came close to making a retort that would have been embarrassing for me and the other person involved. I ordered and waited for my food, paid then I left. Sorry to say that I was dismayed but there it is. It was quite busy on the day and it seemed that crowd management could have been handled better. Perhaps when the store has its remodel the traffic flow can be improved upon. I've always enjoyed shopping here and would like that to continue..

The shop sells cheese (and they let you have samples), wine, and imported foods, but it also a full deli that serves sandwiches, salads, prepared food, and more. My mom is vegan but was able to make a very good vegan sandwich (hummus and lots of veggies), while I really really really really loved their French Picnic sandwich (French ham, brie, apples, and honey mustard on baguette). It was the best brie (and soooo much brie) that I've ever had and just a perfect sandwich. There was a little wait to order - it's a popular spot - but once our sandwiches were in a brown paper sack in our hands, we drove over to Walden Pond and enjoyed them there. What could be a more perfect lunch on a first visit to Concord than a great sandwich from the Concord Cheese Shop enjoyed looking out at Walden Pond?! I'd return for that sandwich - and next time I'm tasting cheeses, too!

There's the cost of the sandwich....$14.95, the 6.25% Mass tax ($0.93), the .75% local tax ($0.12) which comes out to $16.00. That leaves a mysterious 3.5% ($0.52) charge for something...use of a credit card (illegal under Mass law)...?? Takeout fee...?? Hmmm...I guess I should have asked for the receipt.
