    Wine flight

    Yes, yes, yes!!! I am so happy that I discovered this wine & cheese delight! I loved everything about this place. It was a bit small in side- so if you have a large group, you might need to sit at a few different tables. I loved the wine flights that they offered. What I really loved was their create your own charcuterie board option. There were 4 of us, so we decided to each pick 1 cheese/meat. There were so many choices!! I loved that it came with a pairing as well (like jam or apples). We came here before dinner, so we only kept to the cheese. However, the next time I return, I will be getting on of their grilled cheeses! They look & sound delicious! Highly recommend for a date night, girls night out, or just because! If you haven't been here yet, what are you waiting for??

    11/10 RECOMMEND! My GF and I visited Cheese Please for our first time last night, and for their very first night at their new location (i.e. Bar Ten). I cannot say enough good things about this place! The food/drinks, immaculate. The service, immaculate. The overall atmosphere in general, immaculate. We were lucky enough to meet the Owner, Sam, along with Vern (our bartender) last night. Sam even went above and beyond and not only built own charcuterie from scratch (we trusted all his choices), but also had a few drinks with us. We plan on being regulars and will most definitely be back! Thank you all for the amazing food/service and hospitality in general.

    Great cheese options one sheep one goat.

    Our hidden little gem. Stooped by mid week and guess what? $2 off a glass a wine special only on Wed. Things were a little slower and less of the usual weekend crowd. But the place had a nice vibe, great wine down music and the staff were Attentive. I'm allergic to vow based cheeses and love that this place has sheep and goat cheese options. They also modified one of their grilled cheese sandwiches to all goat/sheep non cow based cheese for my intolerance. I did add a meat option to the grilled cheese. OmG! A must try. Wine selection is vast and the staff offer great pairing options. The jellies that accompany the cheese choices are different and tasty. My fav is the Meyers lemon jelly with the truffle goat cheese. Yum! If you're not in the mood for wine they also order cocktails in the next section of the bar. Don't forget to check out the fridg3 section up front to take home your fav cheese. I love the Cana de Cabra!

    Sooo Cheese Please is a cute hidden gem wine bar. Our waiter helped us pick our cheese and meats which were so good. I bought two bottles of wine and will be back for more! This is a cute spot for a date night or wine tasting with friends.

    Cheese, meats and wine! What more could you ask for? We ponied up to the bar at Cheese Please on a rainy Friday night. This place is so cute!! You can pick a choose from flights or create your own. We ordered a lovely bottle of Pinot Noir and ordered all the meats and cheeses. My favorite cheese was the one with the potatoes chips infused. The honey that was paired with our selections were also delicious. They have a great selection of wines, meats and cheeses for purchase to take home too. I'll be back for one of the tastings they put on every week soon.

    Why 4 stars? Because it's a lovely place for wine and cheese. --- --- --- Cheese Please is one of those places that was on my to-do list for years, but I'd never actually gotten around to stopping in, until recently. I've been told for quite some time that it's a really unique experience, and judging by the reviews, a very popular one, as well. We ended up just coming in to enjoy some bites and sips, rather than booking the full tasting experience. My wife and I, along with our friend, sat in the corner and poured over the menu to decide which goodies to order. We had a couple things marked as musts, but really went off of the server's recommendations for which cheeses to order. But as for the things I knew were a must - grilled cheese sandwiches. Particularly, the Ocean's Twelve and Batman & Robin. They were both solid sammies, but I ended up liking the Ocean's Twelve a bit better. As for the other stuff, I let my wife chow down on that, since I ate the majority of the two sandwiches, but I did try a few bites of things - prosciutto, horse radish cheddar and the honey. All of those were really everything I could have hoped for. Throw in a few glasses of the wine for the group and our bill ended up over $100. While I enjoyed my experience, it didn't *quite* seem worth that price tag, but I'd definitely come back again - especially if I'm with a huge wine and cheese fan.

    Such a fun place to get wine and delicious meats and cheeses! Had an excellent glass of wine and delicious meat, cheese, and jam parings. It was such a fun place to get lunch/a snack. Highly recommend this cute and yummy place!

    Cheese Please is a bit like the wardrobe from the Chronicles of Narnia. Upon entering, this appears to only be a small cheese shop, but as you make your way through the store you will discover a hidden bar, Clooney's, in the back. Wine and cheese are my spirit animals so it is no shocker that I love Cheese Please! This cheese shop/wine bar offers an impressive selection of fine cheeses and charcuterie, gourmet cheese sandwiches, and lots of wines to choose from. My husband and I will usually stop in and have a glass or two of wine and split a cheese and charcuterie board. This dark and intimate bar has a very fun and quirky atmosphere. You may have guessed from the bar's name that the owner is a fan of George Clooney. You will find pictures of George Clooney all over the bar, including a life sized cardboard cutout of George! You will also find lots of signs with sassy quotes scattered throughout the bar. The cheese selection never fails to impress! Some of my favorites are the St. Angel triple cream brie, goat cheese with figs, and the sticky toffee cheddar. The cheeses are all perfectly paired with crackers, dried fruits and nuts, and jelly and chutney. They have this bacon chutney that is so good that I could eat it by the jar! Besides the amazing wine and cheese selection we keep returning because of the amazing owner, Michael. Michael is so friendly and welcoming and never makes us feel bad for bringing a stroller into his bar. He knows his wines and cheese so it is always a pleasure to discuss different wines with him.

    It had been a while since my friends and I went here, so we decided to stop in for happy hour/dinner in the bar (Clooney's.) Cheese Please also has fun tastings on Friday and Saturday nights but you have to sign up in advance. In the bar they have a nice selection of wines by the glass as well as sparklings like prosecco, which is what I started with. In addition to getting cheese and meat platters, you can also order one of their four specialty grilled cheese sandwiches, which are all named after George Clooney movies/shows. The Ocean's 12 is their most popular, and that is what my friend got. I like it hot (and spicy), so I got the Three Kings and it is absolutely delicious! I Think it is better than the Ocean's 12 but that is good too. I switched to red wine when I ordered the sandwich, and it paired perfectly. Our bartender/sever was great as well. If you like wine and cheese, and laughing, this is the place to go for tastings, hanging out at the bar or for just picking up some cool cheeses you can't find anywhere else (I am talking about you, potato chip gouda!)

    My husband and I decided to stopped by at Cheese Please and give it a try, I'm glad we did. It's a small, cozy and cute place. Server was very kind and attentive, cheeses were delicious and well paired with meats and jams, I highly recommend to try their grilled cheese sandwich. We are definitely coming back

    Great little place in South Tampa. It's located in a large strip mall with plenty of parking. From the outside it looks like a very small place but as you enter there's the cheese shop in the front, then you make your way to the bar with several tables and seating areas and in the back there's a private room for events and the wine and cheese pairings that they have on Friday and Saturday nights if you reserve in advance. We found our way to the bar. They have a great wine list and an even better choice of cheeses and some meats for a charcuterie board that you choose. There are also several artisan grilled cheese sandwiches available. The bartender was great, full of wonderful recommendations for the wine and the cheese. We had three cheeses ($15 total), potato chip gouda, whiskey Cheddar and grand noir blue cheese. All the cheese were great, but the grand noir blue cheese was my favorite. Paired very nicely with my Federalist cabernet. Also had the "Facts of life" grilled cheese:  French Triple Crème Brie, Raspberry Jalapeno Compote, Crispy Apples. It was delicious and nice and sweet. The owner, Michael, has an admiration for George Clooney, hence the name above the bar, Clooney's. Great place for a girls night out, a date or just a get together. You can reserve the back room for private tastings as well and purchase cheese to go at the shop. Great concept, will definitely return!

    I was genuinely impressed with this little cheese/wine shop/bar. The service was excellent and very informative. The employee helped my friends and I decide on which meats and cheese would best fit our pallets. I don't eat pork or mushrooms, and my friends don't care for goat cheese. The meats we went with were for my friends; and the cheese and Jams were for all of us! It was delicious!! I was very thirsty that day and I never once had to ask the employee to top off my water glass. She was on it and very attentive to any needs we had. This place would be perfect for a little intimate date. It's a small shop, but has a bar and few tables in the back to enjoy the rich cheeses, wines, and meats. Their wine selection was great as well! I definitely will be going back.

We arrived late because we thought the class was 30 mins later than it was but we text them we were on our way. They were visible annoyed when we walked in & we did not get a warm welcome. I have to say there was only 2 people, a couple, in the class so it wasn't like we interrupted a big class. We were bringing the big class. And they had only poured milk into a pot & letting it warm up when we arrived so we had not missed anything. The whole class the women that worked there were not giving warm fuzzy vibes. It lacked fun & enjoyment honestly. We felt like we were treated like a nuisance & like we couldn't even laugh. The cannolis were good & we learned a lot.

Yes, there is tons of food made in the US too but it's a good variety. You won't find everything that you find at a standard grocery store here. Off the top of my head I couldn't find Greek yogurt, cottage cheese or nut butter, but what you do find is spectacular. We got pasta and pasta sauce imported from Italy, frozen ravioli from New York, coffee beans from Italy, bread from local bakeries, and my husband loved the coke from Mexico with real sugar. We also grabbed cannolis from their deli. They have a substantial wine and butcher area. Also a a good selection of ready made foods. This place is hidden, but the parking lot is big.

I wanted Calabrian chiles, but they were apparently behind the plastic construction area. At the deli, I asked for a half pound prosciutto. They cut over 1lb due to lack of English. OK. I took it anyway so it was not wasted (the domestic was no bueno). It was old and dried out. There was no one at the meat counter, so I had to ask the deli guy to help me. The chicken breasts that were on sale were gatgantuan. I have never seen chicken breasts so large. The wings smelled bad when I got home to package to freeze. I had to toss 10 lbs. The reason I went was for the chicken sale. I am not risking food poisoning. The prices on most grocery items were actually higher than Publix. For specialty Italian items, the selection was just good. I did find guanciale and pancetta. Honestly, I would rather go to Mazzaro's or Moschella's. Their service is much better, and they have much more specialty items, plus they are cleaner and don't sell old nasty food.

What a lovely surprise! It's kind of hidden on Bay Street. It's behind the Restoration Hardware Gallery. You'll see the outdoor patio area on the left as you're exiting the food court. In fact, that appears to be the main entrance (or it was that day). There's another entrance next to the Shake Shack as well. The interior is very reminiscent of bistros in various parts of Europe. It's somewhat dark & moody with warm wood furnishings. The wine/coffee bar is the focal point. The seating is comfortable & diverse. There are also large tables set up for groups of people. It's definitely a great meeting place after a day of shopping. It's also great for couples on a date. I was the first one there that afternoon, and had my pick of tables. They have such a great wine list. I already knew what I wanted thanks to the great descriptions on the menu. The white wine flight is a pick of any 3 from the menu. I had a generous pour of a few French Sauvignon Blanc wines and a Blanc de Franc. It was my first time trying the latter white Cabernet Sauvignon. What a treat! I loved all 3, but my absolute favorite was the one from Domaine Doudeau-Léger. The service here was wonderful. Nina gave me some great suggestions when I asked about the toasts. I ended up choosing the Wild Truffled Mushroom one. It was delicious! The mushrooms were the star of the show. The subtle hint of truffle really brought out the natural flavors. I totally recommend this one. If you're a mushroom lover, there's a mushroom & pea soup that was also recommended. I couldn't leave without dessert. I think my only disappointment was that they didn't have the croissants ready. The Crème Brûlée one is popular as well as the Basque Burned Cheesecake. It would have taken an additional 30 minutes. I ended up getting the Pistachio Ricotta Cake. It turned out to be a good decision because the croissant would have been too filling for me. This cake was perfectly light and paired very well with the cappuccino. They serve Kimbo Italian espresso for all you coffee lovers out there. Even the small detail of having a delicious Italian biscotti cookie bite in the spoon was the perfect ending for me. I'm looking forward to more visits. Hopefully, I'll get to try that croissant dessert that everyone raves about. They serve brunch on the weekends. That's what I want to try the next time I'm at International Plaza.
