Buckalew's General Store

It's a fantastic place. Has a great variety of products. A must see!

If you're looking for something to gift a hostess, this is the perfect store! I got a jar of honey and they were so nice to tie ribbon on it and remove the price tag. Great place to shop for gifts!

A one stop shop! Great variety of so many different things. There are lots of trinkets for gifts. There is also a great selection of beer, wines, chocolates, and cheeses.

You absolutely can't find this kind of quality customer service everywhere. They do an incredible job with stocking their store with an eclectic verity of fabulous gifts and their chocolates are outstanding. I'm also so impressed with how they remember your name even if it's been a month since your last visit. I'll be doing the majority of my Christmas shopping with them because their genuine care for customer satisfaction brings me back to my parents family bakery in Everett, MA, where we new our customers and catered to their needs. Their customer service should be the industry standard.

This store is a home away from home. All of the owners are so accommodating. The triple berry biscuits are made fresh on the weekends and are SO good. They also just customized a craft beer Advent calendar for us, and we cannot wait to see what's in store. Highly recommend, you will keep going back!

Buckalew's is my go-to spot for special gifts, whether it is for a holiday or a birthday. Their seasonal selection of items is hand-picked by the owner, Robin, and she is always helpful in finding the perfect items for the occasion or the person in mind. She takes time to show you items that she is excited about and always is warm and thoughtful when doing so. She is a cornerstone of the Melrose community. Her selection of fine kitchen delicacies, craft beer, cider, and wine, and chocolates and treats is amazing! Take time to pick out some chocolates from the case, as they are all delicious. Whether to treat yourself, or shopping for someone special, Buckalew's will offer the best selection of whatever you are looking for!

Been supporting this store since it opened across the street. Robin and her staff go above and beyond to make sure you leave satisfied. Excellent selection of local snacks, chocolates, beer, wine, cider and so much more. Can’t forget the legendary Billy Goat Chips sold here, a chip like no other.
The expansion has made the store even better, which I didn’t think was possible. Now we have cheeses, ice cream, more space for alcohol. This little store now packs quite the punch with its offerings.
Extremely happy to see how far Buckalews has come and will always support it. My mom an I always love to stock up for our holiday parties here
Whether you want to treat yourself, a friend or get stuff for a gathering. This is the place to go in Melrose.

Great selection for beer, wine, liquor and gifts. They prioritize local with an emphasis on customer.

Very nice beer and wine selection, and tasty food made onsite (I think) and brought it. Great place for gifts, too.

Love their selection of craft beer, wine, and coffee - and local foods - and basically everything in the store! So lucky to have Buckalew's in Melrose.

Really fun place! Interesting baubles and kitchen aids, and some really delicious looking fine foods. The coffee is great and cheap... the ice coffee comes with ice coffee ice cubes!

Fantastic store full of wonderful local gifts. Great place to find a unique and special gift for anybody. Love to stop in anytime I pass by.

Always a pleasure to shop here. Very knowledgeable staff and wonderful selection of food, beer, wine and unique home goods.

Great local spot to pick up some great beer, snacks, throw back candy, wine, a hostess gift, etc., etc.! Staff is always helpful and attentive.

Always find the most unique items here. Very hard to leave without buying something, the prices are very reasonable.
Definitely worth stopping in to check it out, you won't be disappointed!

Local spot that has always had chocolate/candy/random goods and have added beer/wine/spirits to what they offer.

Lovely new addition to Melrose center; sweet staff, unique & delicious wine selection and solid pricing on quality foods. Love it!

I love the small-town feel of this place, and the cutest things that they carry, and it seems like every time I go in they have different items to browse through!

What's not to love!!! There's a great selection of beer, wine, food, gifts for all occasions! And did I mention chocolate? Just go!

Great wine and soon to be liquor, too! Great place to stop in for gifts and prepared foods, too.
