I absolutely love the Village Cheese Merchant! When I first moved to RVC a few years ago from…read moreBrooklyn I was sad to be leaving the local cheese shops. About 6 months after I moved here the Village Cheese Merchant opened and I could not be happier :) I've been to the store a number of times and their cheese and meat options are plentiful. They also have tons of crackers, spreads, chocolates and other fun trinkets. The team there is more then happy to help you make your selection based on preferences (i.e. - a nutty Gouda) and you can sample as well! With everything going on right now the Village Cheese Merchant remains open for curbside pickup. I recently placed an order over the phone and it was very easy to articulate my choices and have the cheese monger make selections. I ordered 3 cheese, a baguette, meat and they suggested a fruit bar. All of it was AMAZING. I told them what time I'd like to pick it up and they asked my car type. When I arrived my purchase was safely dropped in my passenger side seat. It could not have been safer or easier. Will definitely be ordering again!! Who doesn't love a charcuterie board with some vino? My personal faves - drunken goat (cheese) and speck (meat)!

First tip. Found out after the fact that it's best to place your order in advance to get your…read morefavorites. Lesson learned, as we specifically wanted the now sold out, Sesame Bagels in our order of a dozen. Had to pivot and order what was left. Additional tip, stay away from the novelty bagels, they move less and will not be freshly made. Another lesson learned. Their schmear's. I was hesitant, but went ahead and opted for a small container of Salmon Cream Cheese. Instructed my server to please incorporate as much salmon as possible, as the display looked quite scant on Salmon. Thankfully he obliged. To conclude. One thing I always ask someone while dining in or ordering to-go. "Questions is...would you come back?" or "Would you order from them again". My answer...No. Too many other bagel shops on the Island to try out.

It also makes me think that if I was to drive another mile, I'd be at a more authentic place like A&S. ...And when you enter the place I've always been greeted with a "Hey Boss" and a "what do you want" not some stuffy "hello sir, how can I help you" - how boring would that be!! The food happens to be good, though a bit expensive, as you might expect and they are generally friendly - a more polished experience would really help their business - but what do I know?

I was looking to grab a Tomahawk steak and they were so reasonably price and large that I ended up getting two! They were $25/pound, so they came out about $125 I believe. That's 2.5 pounds of sheer carnivore goodness right there! I also picked up their fully prepared chicken parm and ziti, rice balls, mashed potatoes and two pizzas. They have a deal where you if pick up 3 of their $12.99 prepared dinner options, you get them for $30 total.. score! I cooked one of the steaks the same night and WOW.. it was incredible. The marbling was just perfect and the fat caps, while large enough to help aid with flavor, were small enough that trimming wasn't necessary. While it was my first time here, it certainly won't be my last!
