Always open anytime you need a cheese fix. Great service great stock. Def get some jambon ham and a baguette

Are you a fan of cheddar? Do you like a little mozzarella in your day? Perhaps provolone tickles your fancy? Well that's all fine and dandy in the land of basic cheese, but if you're looking to step things up a bit, then come on over to the Cheese And Spice Market! This tiny shop has been a spot I've visited several times now, the last trip coming about a month ago when my girlfriend, her family, and yours truly were interested in checking out the Shoppes at East Wind. Alas, due to these current times, many storefronts have shuttered their doors leaving only a few specialty locations still open. One of them? This cheese market (so get going!). Well, it's not all about cheese here as they also sell an assortment of local goods (pickles, spreads, sauces, oils) as well as some teas and a few other eclectically edible/drinkable options. But the biggest reason to enter is for the cheese. Now it might not be the grandest selection, but even so, CASM collects a pretty wondrous assortment of cheese styles, milk bases, and variations from all over the world. Costs are on par with just about any other place selling speciality cheeses (I matched up a few prices at Uncle Giuseppes for legitimacy), but keep that in mind because this...ain't no basic Swiss (sorry for the rhyme). But honestly, beyond the quaint interior, awesome food items, and stellar cheese selection, the real reason I'm gonna slap some five star love on this spot is due to the staff. Each time we've set foot in the Market they've been extremely welcoming, accommodating, knowledgeable and always quick to offer us a taste of any cheese we had interest in. No cheese snobs around these parts, and better yet, they're brutally honest. Case(s) in point: We were told that a local cheese, which had cost more than a similar style, wasn't worth the difference in price because we'd just be paying for the fact that it's from Long Island; it's not any better than the other, cheaper cheese. Also, I sampled a super stinky/funky cheese called Red Witch that one employee stated how much she loved it while the other said he couldn't stand the stuff, so it's nice to know you're not being taken for a ride when you come in here. Overall, the Cheese And Spice Market is a legit shop that checks off all the cheesy boxes. You'll find a great variety at similar prices to other places along with spectacular customer service which makes the whole experience that much more enjoyable (and tasty). So if you're interested in taking a walk on the wilder side of cheese, check out this spot and give em some business to keep them running. Cheese please! read more

Nice cheese shop located in the Shoppe stores by East Wind. They have a large selection of cheese, meat, herbs, tea, honey and other items. I got a platter, sauce for sausage and peppers, saffron, honey, gnocchi and pita bread. The platter was priced very reasonable too. $50 and it had plenty of food for 4 to snack on. Needs a bigger selection of crackers (petite toast please!) and a good selection of nuts. I'm not sure if they had if they did it was not a big selection. read more

What a selection of teas and spices! Such a beautiful array of loose teas to choose from, and small samples to smell before buying. They even carry berbere, an important spice in Ethiopian cooking. They can even order items that are obscure and not regularly carried in the shop. The people working there were friendly, helpful, and knowledgeable! Will definitely be back! A very unique shop, a must-visit! read more

Love everything I get from here from cured meats, cheeses, ginger beer and local arugula.

Went yesterday and picked up two cheese and meat platters. Staff was very knowledgeable and helpful when ordering. Was absolutely blown away by the quality. Really great quality meats and cheeses. A $60 platter is going to easily last us 3 nights. I cannot recommended highly enough. read more

Super friendly staff. Tried various cheeses. Ended up getting some solid stuff. Enjoyed the horseradish pickles, the rest ended up as gifts so not sure how they turned out, but I'm sure really good. They made a nice gift basket for us. read more

Really awesome cheese spot and fairly affordable. I wish they would carry some vegan cheeses and vegan desserts. They should check out Pride Enjoy which is a local vegan baked goods company which is fully gluten free as well! read more

Pat and her husband Gary are wonderful. I don't particularly like cheese but I have never tasted cheese like this. I can't get enough and we go every week. Their holiday platters and prosciutto are hands down the best around. Highly recommend read more

Visited (and shopped) this quaint little shop over the weekend. They hosted a tasting night and everything I tasted was delicious. Will definitely be back. Right now I'm home enjoying a hot cup of their Choco Loco tea. Perfect for a chilly day. Thank you Cheese & Spice shop for bringing this into my life. Along with the cinnamon honey, cranberry cheese, apple maple bacon jam and so much more! Yum!! read more

What a gem of a place! Great variety of cheeses! Stopped in and they assisted me putting together a lovely cheese platter that I brought to a friends house. Great variety of cheeses, nice and fresh! The adults as well as the children devoured the cheese! They even have goat butter! I love goat butter. Great friendly staff too! I can't wait to go back! read more

Nope. The woman, who I found out was the owner, was abrupt and rude. When somebody wants fresh bread, it's what they want. Not day old or frozen to bake at home, which were the choices the store had. Overpriced too. read more
