Editorial Review for The Wine and Cheese Place – by John S. McFarland
In Store
A nearly overwhelming choice of cheeses awaits, including Stilton, Gloucester, mozzarella, goat cheese in a variety of flavors, plus soft and spreadables like Brie and Camembert and a whole lot of other new things to try. (Sampling is encouraged; just ask.) A nearby case holds crocks of olives, some stuffed, along with chicken and apple sausages, salami, pâté in several combinations, specialty bacon and other fragrant foodstuffs. The wine selection is overwhelming. Rating cards posted by select vintages help, and the staff is even more helpful. Describe your tastes or your menu, and the employees will help you navigate the waters. You can also pick up a port, some vodka, vermouth or gin to stock the cabinet. In an adjoining room are floral arrangements, Reidel glassware, crackers, spices and condiments.
Picks
Mousse pâi;té with truffles is rich and velvety. The cornichons are crisp and briney with a bit of spice. Make your next pizza with some truly great mozzarella and savor the difference.

I feel like a kid in a candy store at the Wine and Cheese Place. Paul, Andy and Chris are very helpful and really know their wines. But I like the WCP more so for the beer and cheese selection. I'm a cheese freak and self-admitted beer snob and the WCP has at least 200 selections of both. They also carry the regular everyday brands too. Free parking, No attitudes, and lots of stuff make this place one of my favorites.
Pros: huge selection
Cons: not enough $$ to buy it all

Love this store! I did all of my christmas shopping. The staff was very helpful in picking out gifts. They did not try to over sell me, I got what I wanted. They also gift wrapped all my bottles for free!
Pros: One stop shopping-- wine, liquor, beer, cheese
Cons: none
