Peak Tomato Season: What to Cook (and What to Drink With It)

Published On: August 4, 2025

It’s August, and the tomatoes are coming in hot.

Whether you’re slicing up an heirloom, roasting cherry tomatoes, or finally trying that TikTok tomato confit, Bow Street Market has everything you need to celebrate the juiciest month of the year.

What to grab in-store:

  • Local tomatoes from nearby farms – heirlooms, cherries, beefsteak

  • Fresh basil, garlic, and greens

  • Mozzarella, burrata, and local chèvre

  • Boutique olive oils and balsamic, and Maine-made bread

  • Rosé, pinot noir, or a chilled Lambrusco

Need a no-fuss dinner idea?
