I can't get over how world class Locke St is becoming. I was away for a year and you can imagine my delight when I came home to discover we had a cheese shop within walking distance of my home!! And it's not just a cheese shop. We're talking cheese from around the world, meats like Bison, Emu, Kangaroo even. And the olives, don't get me started on the olives. The best part is that the cheese monger will guide you in your decision making, helping you pair the cheese with the olives and crackers, and even though they don't sell wine they're ready to recommend the perfect one to go with your selections. The only thing they can't recommend is who you share your purchase with! And from the quality of the offerings you will have many people who will be willing to help you out in that regard.
I love this store! I was thrilled when I discovered that they were opening on Locke Street (my favourite street, in case you hadn't noticed!). Despite the name, The Cheese Shoppe has more than just cheese. This is literally a one-stop shop for everything you need to entertain. Cheeses, meats, gourmet crackers, spreads, confit, chutneys, olives, serving ware, cookbooks, cookies... the list goes on and on!!! There's no chance that you can't find something for everyone to enjoy here.
Awesome cheese store. Various cheese and you can try free samples and free coffee.The decoration is excellent
