Beacon Pantry: Cutest Little Grocery Store

UPDATE [7/8/15]: Beacon Pantry has moved! To 382 Main Street and now has outdoor seating and more seating inside.
 
Food is getting so GOOD on Main Street Beacon! Pretty soon we will have no excuses for not knowing what to make for dinner.   

Beacon's newest foodie destination is the Beacon Pantry, located just past the middle part of Main Street at 382 Main Street, Beacon Pantry sells artisanal and farmstead cheeses, charcuterie and fine foods, with an emphasis on domestic, small-scale products. Tasting of the cheese is encouraged in the shop. Do start including Beacon Pantry on your Second Saturday walks for specialty tastings! Beacon Pantry also plans on offering cheese classes.


Beacon Pantry's cute, cream shelves adorn dark wood floors and are stocked with the finest pastas and sauces. Their freezer is a full meal, dessert included, with vegi burgers from Little Green Food's Handcrafted Burger line. You'll also find in the freezer what seems to be some of the best ice creme on the planet, Brooklyn-based Phin & Phebes. The first flavor these ice creme creators made was based on Ritz crackers, chocolate, peanut butter and a few other crave-worthy ingredients. A must-have in your freezer? Yes. 


Can we discuss this little but mighty sign? Carrot cake, lemon cake, and chocolate truffle tart. Something tells me that this small sign will change at whim. The dessert rack is on top of the fine cheeses and meats. Italian sausages, blue cheese, and many other choices tempt you as you go to pay for your goodies.

Immediately you get a supportive vibe while in Beacon Pantry, and the proof is on the shelves. More Good syrups are available here in at least four flavors including the ginger ale and root beer, which is extra awesome because More Good has opened up their new store down a few blocks.
