    Wasik's Cheese Shop image
    Remarkable cheese shop. One of the best selections of cheese in the Northeast USA. Indeed, the best shop I have been to in my life, including a fabulous store I used to frequent in the two years I worked on the Upper East Side of New York City. This is a family business, and the Wasik family are, in addition to having phenomenal knowledge about cheese, the most pleasant people whom I have ever met. The personal service is truly old world. They have a limited number of wines with which they will help you pair the cheese. Their selection is outstanding although this tends to be high end wine and pricey. The are very knowledgeable about the pairing, Do not hesitate to ask for help. In summary, if you love cheese, it is worth the trip from Boston to Wellesley. There is not much else to do in Wellesley except to see the college (which is currently closed due to COVID-19) but you could buy yourself a wonderful lunch to take to the beach! See more..
