South Slope Cheese deserves more starts than Yelp will allow...and I've never set foot inside the…read moreshop. Let me explain: A friend was celebrating a milestone birthday and spending the weekend in Asheville. We thought of so many different things we could do to celebrate from afar, but nothing felt "milestone"...it felt ordinary. Until, in a search, I ran across South Slope Cheese. Not only did we arrange for the delivery of an amazing cheese board to my friend's hotel, they went the extra mile when they learned my friend is vegan. They called, asked questions all around my friend's preferences, even worked with the hotel to make sure the delivery was kept in the right spot waiting for my friend's check in. All reports of the surprise pointed to every single bit of special and delicious was absolutely wonderful. Every cheese was delicious...and my friend didn't even realize all of the cheese options on the tray were totally vegan!!!! She was crying when she realized just how much care South Slope Cheese put into making this truly a treat for HER. The extra time and care they took really telegraphed to me that they not only care about their customers and the experience...but about the cheese! I may NEVER set foot in this wonderful shop because I don't live in the area, but I will ALWAYS recommend and praise this wonderful business.

We absolutely loved there cheddar which was mild and easy to pair, but we think the Gouda is our favorite. We got some bagel chips to go with our garlic spread to snack on. Definitely worth coming if you are in the area.

Came here on a Saturday afternoon to get some grilled cheeses, scope out the new diggs, and take home some delicious products. The dining room has about 4 tables (3 chairs at each table but realistically for 2 to be comfortable). Looks like the small outdoor seating area had 3 tables (for 2). Walk up to the counter to order or take advantage of their expertise here!! While we were enjoying our grilled cheeses, a couple came in needing a lot of advice for a party they were having later this evening. They went to the right place!! Absolutely no shortage of helpful knowledge and it sounds like they were all set for their plans in the evening. Definitely come check out this location!! Cheese is my kryptonite but if I'm going to partake and indulge, I'll come here to do so.

The store and dining areas are a bit small, and I do wish the seating were a little more comfortable, but the quality of the food more than makes up for it. Well done!

It rained a bit that day which is not perfect given the eating layout but we had a great time and would definitely visit again.

I was warmly greeted when I entered the store and given an overview of what was available, and that the museum was from the owner's personal collection. She even tried to help me find a museum I couldn't find. The store opened in August of 2024. Samples were available if you wanted to try before you buy. You can get pickled fudge, pickle-flavored lollipops, freeze-dried pickles, pickled asparagus, pickled beets, beverages and more. There were t-shirts, candles, soap, toys, and more. A refrigerated section sells cheese and other items that require refrigeration, such as pickles without preservatives and pickled lemonade. They sell items you won't find elsewhere. The shop is located inside a historic building built in 1914. The mini museum showcases a variety of pickle memorabilia, from jars and toys to vintage signs, games and other unique items. Parking is available on the street; just make sure you are in the spot for less than three hours, or the parking attendant will give you a ticket. If you are looking for somewhere quirky to visit or a hard-to-find item, you might find it here. You can order from the website if you don't live close enough to shop in person.
