I've been to Arrowine many times, but after my experience yesterday I felt the need to leave a review. As you'd expect, this store has a great selection of wine and a decent selection of beer, but what I love most is their array of excellent cheeses.
Yesterday my friend and I were on a mission to make the best grilled sandwich ever, so we decided to head to Arrowine to get the good stuff. Now, as much as I love cheese, I still am somewhat of a novice when it comes to selecting it myself. We walked up to the cheese counter and asked the guy what 2 cheeses he suggested combining to make the "most epic grilled cheese sandwich ever made." His face lit up, he thought about it for a moment, asked us a few questions about our cheese preferences, then went to work picking some out. He sliced off a couple samples for us to try, and we were sold. We asked for a bread pairing as well (Arrowine sells incredible fresh baked bread), and of course, a wine pairing. We received an excellent white wine recommendation to go with our grilled cheese sandwiches (to really class it up).
If you are looking for wine, beer, and cheese, I'm sure there are many stores around here that can give you just that. But if you want great wine, beer, and cheese AND excellent customer service, go to Arrowine. Yeah, sometimes you may have to wait to be helped on the weekends at the cheese counter, but it's worth it (and you get to sample what you are interested in buying).
And in case you were wondering, our grilled cheese sandwiches turned out to be the best I've ever made.
