I haven't been there for years but went this afternoon and it was a great surprise. They have so many wonderful items that we found lots of things to get for holiday gifts. Unusual jams, locally made chocolates, my friend's favorite anchovies, great crackers and even some rose. The owner and his staff were very nice too. This place is a wonderful find and a well kept secret. Let's change that. It's nice to have a little store like this in the neighborhood when all of the mega stores are everywhere. Let's support it so it stays around. Boston's needs special places like this.

Impressive selection of wines and cheeses with extremely helpful and knowledgeable staff. They also have a wide variety of fresh bread, liquor, groceries, and produce, plus a delicious deli and sandwich counter. Not your average local market - a true gem!

This is a hidden gem for sandwiches in this area.Really solid deli sandwiches freshly made to order.No tables, so it’s take out only.

So so yummy and the staff was super kind! They gave my friend a free sandwich since they accidentally mixed up his order.

Great service friendly people work there but the portions are very small and a little overpriced

It's not a surprise to find a gourmet deli and grocery store at this relatively posh location - nestled beneath high-end apartments and offices and wedged in between the Public Garden, Back Bay, and South End. What was surprising to me was how accessible it was. The deli, for example, offers fresh, well-crafted sandwiches at perfectly reasonable prices, like the Italian (mortadella, ham, salami, provolone, balsamic glaze, peppadew spread, ciabatta) that I enjoyed. There's also a wide selection of packaged goods - much of it upscale or independent brands, like a chocolate bar with a Keith Haring-themed wrapper that I had to have - plus an excellent beer and wine selection. In fact, I was here for a wine tasting, which was much appreciated.So even if the prices and selection look elevated here, it's all worth it. A store that punches far above its weight.

Excellent selection of wines and gourmet foods. Friendly staff and convenient downtown location. Nicely designed store with big windows for good lighting.

Great selections (a couple very cool liquors you don't see everywhere!) and also super great staff! They were in super high spirits about the loud and boisterous pride celebration happening outside - felt very welcome as a QTPOC. Thanks!

Such a cute cheese shop! The person working the front counter (I didn't catch her name) was SO helpful. I told her I wanted to buy a few cheeses for just 2 people. She really took her time and let me sample several cheeses before deciding on a few, even though she knew I wouldn't be making large purchase. They also have wine, crackers, etc. --everything you need for a perfect charcuterie board. The prices were affordable as well, although I would be willing to pay more based on the quality of the product and service.

Fantastic place! Went looking for breakfast in this area and both places we went to no longer exist. Walked in here not knowing they serve breakfast and had the best breakfast of our entire time in Boston. The lunch menu looked great. Wish we were in this area for lunch. Also a great selection of cheese, fruit, wine, bottled drinks, everything. You will thank me for recommending this place. You. are. welcome!

They are super helpful; my roommate went to buy cheese and didn’t know what to get and they helped pick the best cheddar we’ve ever had! We were also pleased to see that they carry ethically sourced and locally made chocolate bars. Good selection of wine and very interesting and unique craft beers!

Super friendly shop! Stopped in on a Sunday to grab some sandwiches and wine. Great selection of everything! The Crown Vic and Chicken Bacon Ranch wrap was delicious. Will be back for the cheese and kombucha selections!

Absolutely wonderful experience!!! I ordered a gift bag to be delivered to a friend’s hotel in honor of her running the marathon. She was so impressed and delighted with her gift! She was still talking about it days later! Great job!

Best lunch spot in back bay. I go about once a week and have never had a bad experience. Their caprese sandwich is the bomb. Great drink selection too.
