They have an amazing selection of meats and cheese! The staff is very knowledgeable and friendly. The shop is small and puts me in the mind of a quaint country market. They have a wonderful selection of cheese knives, boards and fondue pots. When I asked them to help me with a meat and cheese board for my Halloween Wedding they went above and beyond!!! I plan to continue to use them for all of my catering! read more

The Greater Gouda - Rocky road small batch of marshmallows - Meat Shops Near Me - Delaware, Ohio

Cute gourmet shop in Downtown Delaware - I bought a bottle of wine (Barbera) and a bag of toasted coconut marshmallows (yum). They have a variety of foods, lots of cheese, and refrigerated & frozen items. I would probably return and check out the other marshmallow flavors. It is fun to look. The clerk was nice, and helpful. read more

This little cheese and meat shop gets a whopping five-star review for carrying two of my favorite things all in one place! They have some of the best maple syrup I have ever had from Strine Family Farms. Then to top it off they have my all time favorite Moscato wine, Bug Juice! This shop has a meat and cheese counter with the most helpful and patient folks. Customers can try the food, and you can see the passion on the workers faces as they talk about their products. It is a great shop to try out, and experience a bit of Downtown Delaware. I will definitely be a frequent shopper as long as they carry may favorite maple syrup and wine! read more

Went in and requested about a 3" slice of cheese. Was given a less than 1" slice I said that isn't even close. The worker said he couldn't deal with me and requested someone else help me. He gave me a slice that was 1" thick. When I put my fingers up to demonstrate what 3" was he told me I had a bad attitude and he wouldn't sell me anything. I had shown both people the slice of cheese I wanted with my fingers. Unbelievable arrogance. read more

This is my second time here. Each time I go I feel compelled to buy something. They have a good variety of kitchen tchotchkes, fresh cheeses and sliced deli meat, and dried goods. The staff is always friendly and the prices aren't overly expensive. Overall, if you're in downtown Delaware, support this local business. read more

The Greater Gouda - Meat Shops Near Me - Delaware, Ohio

This is such an amazing little store. We stopped in here not planning to buy anything and failed miserably at that. The service is very friendly. The for must have let us sample 10 different kinds of cheese and we ended up buying 4 of them. There were so many good cheeses. We got a horseradish, balsamic, mustard seed, and blue. They also have free samples sitting out on the counter. We would definitely come back again next time we're in town! read more

"A country cheese shop with a gourmet touch." The country part just doesn't come from them being located in Delaware, but from their civility and generosity. The people who work there definitely know their craft and their cheese and they know how to welcome one into the world of such a delicacy. You'll find everything from gouda (no kidding), swiss, cheddar, Italian, smoked and flavored, to name a few. They'll also entertain special requests, if you're a lover of cheese yourself and are looking for hard to find. Local and imported, they'll gladly let you try whatever you like and make suggestions based on your reactions. They also have meats, including Italian meats like salami, capicols, sopressata and basic deli meats like turkey breast and ham. So, probably needless to say they can cater to your meat and cheese tray needs for parties or holidays. Their local bulk candy selection includes Abbott's Caramels, Ben Heggy's chocolates (which I tried and loved) and old fashioned penny candy. They also have a various specialty foods like jams, jellies, maple syrup, mustards, fondu pots (no kidding, again), chips, crackers and more, including gift baskets and cheese accessories like cutters and boards. Forewarning though, the owner is a clever salesman and from his curtesy and the delicious cheese, you'll walk away with a good amount destined for the fridge. Depending on class and country, some cheese can get as high as $18 a lb, but take it from me, if you find something you like it will last a while and will be worth every penny. read more

Amazing little gourmet grocery store. Worth paying extra for things that are so good. The Jalapeño Munster is the best cheese I've ever had.

What a great shop!!!! Customer service is always top notch. They'll let you sample cheese before you buy and are all knowledgeable about their cheeses. I often visit for some special things we like and for gifts too! read more

Best cheese ever! We sampled several, bought aged gouda and Wensleydale with cranberry (like cheesecake but in a supreme form), and transported both cheeses from Delaware OH to Albuquerque NM (5.5 hours flying, cooled with cold water bottles). Just had another little snack of cheese - fantastic! Our daughter, a student at OWU in Delaware, will bring gouda to Oma at Thanksgiving. Oma is from the Netherlands, and the cheese is so good that we're bringing it to her from OH to AZ. We now have a "cheese transport bag" (cooler bag for plane trips). read more

I am so happy I stopped in this shop as I waited for someone to finish the Ironman 70.3. Right away I was impressed with their selection of goods (cheeses and otherwise). Furthermore, all three employees that were currently in the store (the owner and two others) were above-and-beyond informative and friendly. When I asked to try one cheese, they happily did so and recommended several other cheeses I should try as well, based on my interest in the first one. I will definitely make the drive out to Delaware again soon just for this store. read more

I found the shop to very lovely and the female owner to be very kind and informative on her products. Will definitely be making a return trip soon. read more

Excellent customer service! These gentlemen know how to service their customers and make excellent suggestions. just made a sandwich at home with their suggested meat and cheese and wow! Tasty beyond belief! read more

I was hungry for some good cheese and did a search for cheese shops near me. This was the closest one. As luck would have it I was going to be in Delaware anyway. I stopped in on my out of town. This place was exactly what I was hoping for. They had a big selection of cheeses and the owner was friendly and knowledgeable. Best part he let me taste the cheeses I was interested in. I ended up buying some Grand Noir Cambozola cheese and Raisin Pecan Rosemary crackers. The combination of the two is out of this world. I also ordered a cheese and meat tray for the Super Bowl. read more

Do not eat here if you want a quick sandwich, for nothing comes quickly. Experienced an overpriced sandwich and a coke for 10$. Deli-ware sandwich with some crumbly sweet rye bread and scant amount of corned beef, I asked for add onion and don't think they had any to spare..Great place to sit outside, but bring your own lunch!!! I noticed the reviews do not discuss their ability to serve sandwiches, just saying. read more

Found this place when coming home from a business trip in Michigan on my to Columbus. The two gentlemen were very helpful and excited to show me what they had to offer. Very knowledgeable and answered my question while offering fantastic suggestions. I will be back whenever I get the chance. read more
