Oh, dear, my cheese palate has been gentrified. We were offered tastes of whatever we wanted to try…read moreand omg what a game changer. Cabot is no bargain after I've had cheese so superior. Will have to put myself on a cheese budget. But it is easier to have less when the taste is so unforgettable. Great service. Just hope they get the sandwiches that they already sell in Marlborough. I live in Hopkinton and we could use some great sandwiches. My very own Italian sub is super-good (learned from a deli in Westport, CT, in the '70s. No longer there of course. Like McDonald's Subway has co-opted the best about our 20th century foods and turned it into some of the worst. It's great that there are no fast-food options here. If you have a few minutes and want to have some fun, go to Vin Bin.

Same cheese quality, same wine selection and craft beers, and same lovely service (I caveat depending on who is in the store, it is VERY well known among regulars (intimidating/weird vibe type of thing) but we overlook it and come back later, because we love this business and the family that runs it. Of course when you walk into the Hopkinton store, you miss the oh so familiar and intoxicating aroma of Chef Mike L's food!!!!!! So, get in the car after you get your wine and drive over to Marlborough and grab one of Mikes' delectable, addictive and crave worthy sandwiches and soups - then all will be in balance in the Universe!!! Many more years of success to the Vin Bin Family!

Here you can take any beer you are interested in and make it a single. I walked away with two 6 packs of different beers and checked them in my suitcase to bring back to VA so far the staff suggestions for me have been on point and all are quality and tasty beers that I can't get where I live! I can't wait to return when I visit my family next. The selection is huge, really great and thoughtfully chosen.

He and his partner, Randall Berg, do a podcast that highlights their specialties. Truth be told, they are a few dollars higher than the big-box merchants within a 15 minute drive, but the eclectic selection of Scotch, whiskies, beers, wines and Hot sauces are to die for. And if you have a question Ryan is often scurrying about the store to help or chat with a customer. He is really KNOWLEDGEABLE! PS: they have a decent little cigar shop, too, with a walk-in humidor. Check them out. (I'm just a satisfied repeat customer) Eddie
