Blackstone’s of Beacon Hill

Blackstone’s on Charles Street is a useful stop for people who cook, people buying presents for people who cook, and anyone whose kitchen knives need attention. The Beacon Hill shop sells cookware, cutlery and other kitchen tools alongside home goods, locally made products and Boston souvenirs. It also offers professional knife sharpening, so a visit can solve a problem with something you already own. Opened in 1982, the store is run by Jennifer and Jim Hill. Ask for help comparing tools or choosing a gift, and leave time to browse beyond the kitchen shelves. Local customers can choose in-store or curbside pickup for their orders.
