Amazing selection of cheese and the staff is so helpful and knowledgeable. They have everything you need for a wine and cheese night from specialty crackers and spreads to a great selection of wines in the back room. It’s a half hour drive for me and totally worth it.

YES I WILL drive into this off the beaten path, REALLYOFFTHEBEATENPATH location. It is GORGEOUS for starters, and they carry the wines I want to drink! Assisted by Lorenzo Savona, this Panzano expat has recreated the magic of panzano and made it her tastefully(all puns intended) own. There is a cheese shop coming to Hudson, and I will support local. But I will still haul it to Wellesley to Wasik, and a bit closer, Pecorino has become an immediate favorite! Perfect cheese selection, good pricing, beautiful finds, and an assortment of wines that rivals any upscaled and local folk alike establishment. Quietly elegant but unpretentious, painfully clean, this is a gem in the burbs! Hard to find, off the path, and WORTHEVERYMORSEL!

Went here today for the first time and I am extremely pleased! We received top notch service by knowledgeable staff. Really nice woman who knows her stuff and really seems to enjoy what she is doing, I can’t wait to go back again. Great selection, so delicious. Try the«dinner for 2»(starts at $ 35). I really appreciate a business like this and even more the service they give

Just drove out to this place today on a beautiful fall day. Great selection of cheese, bread, and wine. Is there anything better in life than good cheese, bread and wine? I think not. Also a good selection of artisanal honey, olive oil and pasta and you have the makings of a great place to stop on a lazy day. Not much in the way of cured meats, but the main focus is cheese– so I am ok with that. Friendly ownership, who is happy to help you select some of the good stuff. Will definitely be back. Support your local businesses, particularly the ones like this that get it right.

Love the selection of wines and personal attention at Pecorino. The staff is very knowledgable and very helpful. I have shopped here for over a year and never had a bad selection of wine. It’s a prefect place to stop by of a Friday night to pick up wine, cheese, bread and more for the weekend. Unexpected treasure in Grafton.

Since I wrote this last review, I’ve been to a few wine tastings here(including a Rosé tasting last week) and the experience was made even better. Though there is an assortment of international products, I love all the local products being promoted here, too.

This is a warm and inviting shop knowledgeable, friendly down to earth staff who are a pleasure to speak with and very helpful. They carry many local products as well as some great imported cheeses. You won’t get service and quality like this at any supermarket cheese case! The prices were very reasonable for the quality products they carry. We are always happy to pay a few cents more to support a quality local business. We look forward to returning soon.

My fiancée and I needed to do a bit of cheese shopping for our wedding. We headed out to do our errands for the day, with plans on stopping by Pecorino at the end, as she had heard that the cheeses there were wonderful. At the barber shop(part of the day’s errands), the barber and I were striking up conversation about the upcoming wedding, and the subject of the cheese came up. I told him that was going to Pecorino. Even my barber commended me on the choice. Once there, I was astounded at the knowledge the proprietor has regarding varieties of cheeses. She was able to recommend many types of cheese that would compliment the wedding theme and food dishes, and my fiancée and I were able to taste samples. I must admit, I know monterey jack about cheese, but my fiancée does, and even she was impressed with the staff’s knowledge. The prices are a little on the higher side, but this isn’t Velveeta you’re dealing with. This is the real deal — the best of local cheese and European cheese. With a little help from Pecorino, I am now happily married.

Wonderful gem of a gourmet shop! Lovely cheese and dried meat selection, carefully selected wines displayed beautifully, and delicious freshly made breads! They also have a small selection of crackers, cookies and jams. Very convenient location and nice to not have to trek too far for this kind of quality. I will be a regular!

Pecorino is an absolute treasure, that kind of store that so perfectly gels product quality and customer service that it becomes something that is truly more than the sum of its parts. Pecorino is the reason you should shop the way they do in Europe and go to small specialty merchants who know their craft. The owner and her small, elite cadre of cheese queens are always up to the task of selecting a wine or cheese based on your personal tastes, matching it with something you would never have thought of, and solving any gourmet quandary you may find yourself in, no matter how delicious it may threaten to get. You could go here and ask for a half pound of cloth-bound cheddar, and you will be very pleased, but the true value of the place becomes apparent when you place control of your cheese-destiny into the hands of the mighty Dairy Valkyrie who owns the place. Simone can transform a dull Tuesday night dinner into a rustic European wonderland of crusty bread, soft taleggio and speck. Do you like chocolate? She will bludgeon your tastebuds into a magical flavortopia with locally produced cocoa delights. And everything in the store has been hand selected because Simone actually cares about you consuming wonderful things, from the wine to the cookies to the lovely handmade wood cutting boards(don’t eat the lovely handmade wood cutting boards, but do buy them as they are Wicked Classy). It is literally impossible to go wrong with this place, except by driving past it without filling your car with cheese. Go to Pecorino, and tell everyone you know to go to Pecorino. There are not enough places like this in the world, so to have one land in our lap like this is a Very Good Thing indeed.

All I can say is WOW! And, where did those pictures come from? They are of the Pizza place but none of the actual cheese shop. The woman who works here is ever so helpful and extremely knowledgable about what she is selling. I mean that you cannot stump her on a question which is amazing! I don’t know how she does it. I would love to recommend cheeses that I have tried but it would be much easier to tell the few names I haven’t tried. The amazing fresh aroma as you walk in will leave your wallet empty when you leave. Don’t let the name fool you either. This tiny cheese shop sells cheese, chocolate, bread, spreads, kitchen supplies and a vast array of other neat gifts. PERFECTSHOPFORGIFTS!

Pretty excellent new cheese shop here in Grafton. The space is smaller then I expected, but the space they do have, they have used well. All kinds of cheese and other items that you can think of. I’m talking real cheese like Manchego, Roaring 40’s Blue, and goat cheese from Crystal Brook in Sterling. Really happy this place has opened and I think it will do well. They also do tastings and the owner was more then willing to offer me tastings in store, while I was there. Like the other reviewer said, the owner is really nice, and seems quite knowledgeable. Highly recommend this place and I’m sure I will be back many times.

My roommate and I love this little shop! We stop by weekly to get our favorite cheese and sopressata, and whatever else we need in the cheese department for our groceries. They offer a pretty wide selection of cheeses and other gourmet products — some local and some imported. The shop owner is an absolute delight — extremely knowledgeable about what she is selling and how to pair it with other cheese or food. We love her! Pecorino also gets a delivery of fresh bread every other day, with their biggest delivery on Saturday. Two big thumbs up!
