The Cheese Shop of Portland

Thank you, as always, Cheese Shop (Mary and Will and staff). In this case, the sandwich that I was craving was no longer “on Special” but it was happily made up for me anyway (just as delicious as I dreamed it would be). Always welcoming, knowledgeable and delicious here!

I stopped here on a Saturday afternoon to see what options this shop had for cheese after reading great things about the location. The space is small and they want to limit the number of folks inside, so we did have to wait in line for a little to get in, but it was worth it! They had so many cheese options and a lot of them were different and unique. We were able to get a 1/4 pound to snack on while we sat a brewery and enjoy some of the other snacks. Folks inside were friendly and the pricing was reasonable. I'd recommend a stop in!

The greatest selection of cheeses, cured meats, breads and delicatessen you are going to find in Portland. You can order a freshly made sandwich with the products you picked. Small but nice selection of wine. Nice place to buy delicatessen products as presents. Try their new pistachio spread!

What a treat. The owners of this shop have lovingly curated such high quality offerings for cheese lovers and charcuterie enthusiasts. We had a great time sampling cheese and chatting about the different varieties offered. So pleased with the treats we took home. Will absolutely be back!!

Will was more than accomodating. This guy knows cheese, step into this container based establishment where you'll find some of the best from local creamerys such as Spring Day in Durham alongside some fine imports. There is a number of items in house from beer to pasta, or you can order a famous "ham and butter" on a baguette from Standard Baking Co. They also stock some beautiful breads fresh daily from Night Moves Bakery in Biddeford.

It doesn't get much more Portland than this, local people supporting local food. We look forward to coming back time and time again. 6 stars if I could.
