Barrel & Baskit

I am obsessed with the meal kits here! We are in our third week of receiving 4 meals for two and each one has offered—local ingredients, ease in preparation, portions are perfect, fresh, and unique…. No more, “what do you want to eat” annnoyingness. Each meal comes with a recipe card to remake things you love. It has made cooking dinner exciting and stress free. Thank you so much for this amazing creative service!

I stop in daily and love the beer selection and the friendly staff. They the best food, all homemade. A gem in a little town.

Much different than the old Cracker Barrel, less selction of produce and food, but mich better aesthetics and more of a coffee shop appeal with a lounge setting.

I picked up the ready made meat lasagna. I wasn't expecting much as my mom was Italian and I grew up and raised my kids on homemade lasagna. I was beyond impressed with the grab and go meat lasagna, it as good as homemade and way easier. I went back and grabbed another one for my freezer is was so good. Great place, great people, and super convenient for real homemade food.

Beth and her fearless team are an absolute treasure to the town. The modern barn atmosphere is both warm and inviting. Finally, a place where you can grab a gourmet sandwich at a reasonable price and sit down in a welcoming spacious atmosphere! Not only is the food delicious and healthy it’s also affordable. Each time I pop into the store, there’s new seasonal selection of local or handmade products to choose from, a staff member with smile behind the counter, and an unbelievable wine and beer selection. What’s incredible as well is Beth and her staff’s knowledge of each product. Everything comes with a story about its origin and making. I most recently stopped in on our way to a day at the lake. We were able to grab freshly made cold sandwiches, Vegetable ceviche, pasta salad, potatoe salad, bags of ice for our coolers and lots of cold drinks. The handmade Whoopie pies are not to be missed. I was also able to pick up some frozen to go meals for dinner later that night ! Another hidden gem is the stunning hand painted mural on the side of the building if you’re looking for a photo ops! I’m so excited to return to her store with more friends and family. I’m even more excited to start taking some of her flower bouquet making classes and wine tasting classes…The community is so lucky to have someone as passionate, knowable, and kind as Beth and her team who have created a beautiful space that nourishes both the body and soul!

Great people, great marinated foods ready for the grill. Steak tips or chicken breast pretty good variety of flavors. 10/10 would recommend

Love the Barrel and Baskit in Hopkinton! Beth and her team have done an amazing job curating this special cafe and store and it feels like so much more. Everything is made fresh, their meals to go are so convenient, and basically anything you might need is available. This quintessential cafe and storefront is anything but mainstream and offers a cultural vibe that is welcoming whether you live in town and connecting with neighbors or passing by. Come stop in and see what's new today. Come experience authentic Hopkinton at the Barrel and Baskit. Cheers, Brenda
