Every year I come to the Cape, I look forward to my visit to the Chatham Cheese Company. Their selection is always excellent, with both new items and old favorites to have again. During my visit today, I found a new must-have: the fromager d'affinois. It was outstanding. If I had 10 minutes alone with that hunk of cheese, it would be devoured. I also purchased a great baguette to accompany my soft cheese. They feature other accouterments in their store as well, such as olives, jams, crackers, and wines, if you wanted to have a few other things to go along with your cheeses. Their service is always excellent, as is their selection, and I love the charming atmosphere while picking my cheeses. Overall, I highly recommend coming here for your charcuterie needs. Whether you're hosting, or just enjoying some cheese for yourself, this is the spot to go! read more

The Chatham Cheese Company - TRY THIS CHEESE! double cream brie from France - Cheese Shops Near Me - Chatham, Massachusetts

Similar to other reviews we found the cheese selection to be somewhat underwhelming here. Many of the selections being available at like a Whole Foods or Wegmans cheese department. The plus is the parking, a wine selection, and some bread (like baguette from local Pain d' Avignon). Service and the quaint lil shop are good. My guess is that the shop sustains itself based upon what the clientele taste buds demands, therein lies the limitations. Windup buying a bit of Brilliat Sav. --a decent triple crème. Otherwise, gonna have to go back to the drawing board. read more

Super helpful, cheese was a hit at the dinner party! We went in not knowing what to pair with our meal. The "cheese guys" came to the rescue and not only let us sample what they suggested, but also perfectly portioned how much we needed for the number of guest! Highly recommend! read more

Cute cheese & wine shop in Chatham but honestly not that impressed by the selection. I have been to a lot of cheese shops around New England and thought this would have had a spectacular selection. There honestly wasn't much! I did however get a very good Gouda recommended by one of the associates and my favorite truffle cheese, Moliterno Al Tartufo. Cute wine & cheese pairings and ability to order cheese platters for parties or if you're hosting. Also was told the sandwiches are amazing and sad we didn't get the chance to try! read more

Every time I visit Chatham I must stop at this cheese shop and get some cheese to enjoy during my stay on the Cape. This week I picked up some of their Lenora goat cheese and the Fromager aux Herbes. The Fromager aux Herbes was a huge hit! Buttery and creamy with delightful herbs throughout the cheese. It went fast! The Lenora is tasty, but didn't quite have the same wow factor. When I stopped in, I was the only person in the store and was quickly greeted and served. They also have a selection of cheese accompaniments including jams, crackers, crostini, olives, etc. Convenient parking in the back of the store and cute outdoor seating at picnic tables outside. Always worth a visit! The only criticism I have is that the hours are not exactly ideal for me in that they close Sundays at 5. I wish they closed a little later to give me more time to spend in Chatham before heading home with my cheese. read more

We were able to sample cheese and meat to make better selections. We were also given a suggestion for a bakery in Falmouth that was fantastic! We are so glad we turned around to stop here! read more

Excellent selection of cheeses, wines, dried meats, spreads and crackers. Knowledgeable, pleasant and helpful staff.

So cheezy!!! Cheese and wine pairing at the Chatham Cheese Company. Another Chatham experience to add to my Cape Cod adventure. Included was; wonderful service from Susana, 3 wine tastings (white, prosecco and chianti) and 5 cheeses). Perfect rainy day activity. They also have an extensive variety of cheeses by the pound, lots of wines, savory and sweet treats and refrigerated goodies too. Indoor and outdoor seating, as well. Chin, Chin!!! read more

Stopped in looking for bleu cheese as this establishment was recommended to having a good selection and they were right. Recommendation was Mad River bleu which is produced by the Von Trapp family, yes Sound of Music family, so got a small piece of that as well as a blue from Australia. Picked up a French baguette as well which looks amazing. The store is small but the cheese case has a good selection of what you might be looking for. There's also wines. Pates, cured meats, crackers, jams, etc. the staff are very knowledgeable and helpful so ask any questions you might have. There are picnic tables outside if you want to have an impromptu picnic while you're in town. read more

Excellent selection of cheese and everyone that goes along with cheese, including wine. We chatted with the knowledgeable staff and they were able to provide us some Good recommendations. We did not try the met and cheese plate but next time we will. They also have a cheese tasting. Both the plate and tasting need to be reserved in advance. I was expecting to see more stores like this in Cape Cod. If you like wine and cheese stop here you and go wrong! read more

Went here for a sandwich & watched my sandwich get prepared by an employee with no gloves who touched their face mid sandwich. I am pregnant and not in a position where I can eat a sandwich made in an unsanitary way. Such a shame because the food looks decent. read more

If you are coming to Cape Cod, this is a must!The store has so many interesting options that are incredibly fantastic for both wine and cheese. My girlfriend and I did a cheese and wine tasting and all of the pairings were great. The best part of our experience was getting to meet Michael. Not only did he walk us through the tasting extremely well, giving us details into what we were having and where they were from, but he gave us so much insight into the area. Michael went above and beyond to give us recommendations for other spots throughout Chatham and Cape Cod. Cannot express enough how great Michael was and how he helped us get our trip off on the right foot! read more

We tried the Caprese and the Italiano sandwiches. Really excellent. Extremely high quality cheeses and meats. And the bread - a French baguette - was the topper that made it a truly superb sandwich. Wow! I really want to come back again. read more

The cheese and wine tasting was amazing. Ben chose three wines, fresh baguette and a board of cheese, fruit, jam and meat that was perfectly paired. He explained the wine and each cheese in detail so we could understand the flavors and pairings. We enjoyed a beautiful afternoon and liked the wines and cheese so much we brought some home. read more

Our second visit.This time we got the Parma sandwich -Prosciutto di Parma, Mozzarella, greens, balsamic vinegar and olive oil. It comes in French bread. It was delish! Would get it again. read more

I came in here on Saturday when it was about 5 minutes till closing, and the young woman behind the counter was so gracious about staying open a few extra minutes to help us out. I told her what kind of cheeses I like and that I wanted to try something new, and she recommended some amazing cheeses for us. The ambiance is also great, with lots of wine, chocolates, nuts, & crackers. If you go into the shop try their honey bee cheese or one of their truffle options! Wish I could remember the young women's name who helped us - she was wearing a tye die shirt! Thank you for helping us find great cheeses! read more

This is a super fancy wine and cheese shop in Chatham. Maybe a little too fancy. The cheese is not cheap (to say the least). You can sample everything and they make some sandwiches too. read more

I was not a cheese person (or so I thought) until I went here. I am not the type to try foods out of my comfort zone.. but the woman behind the counter recommended that we try a cheese with truffle (I think it also had raw sheeps milk)-- we tried it, I fell in love & now I love cheese. Her recommendation I never would have tried, but I trusted her input and im so glad I did. After sampling that I wanted to try something even further out of my comfort zone, it had cranberries and struck me as something a cheese lover would enjoy so I wanted to try it, it was incredible. The store is so cute and we bought some crostinis they made, the saltiness of them went so well with the cranberry cheese. The staff was friendly and we picked a couple crackers too. Thanks for the recc read more

It's good to see a business bringing a good name to the world of mongers. We have war mongers, and fish mongers, but rarely do we celebrate the cheese mongers in our midst. I've been here a few times now and have been greeted with genuine enthusiasm for the cheesing arts, knowledge of the exquisite varietals, and moderately priced wine pairings. The woman behind the counter was delightful. We chatted for a bit and she turned me on to a triple crème Brie that shattered my understanding of soft cheeses. There are before and after moments in one's life, and I am in a whole new chapter of my cheese journey because of this place. She then pointed me towards a sharp cheddar that crackled and popped. But the piece de resistance was a petit fromage with a name that was something like Full Moon or Athena's Garden. I shared this with my family and all of our past traumas and petty squabblings were forgiven and a new epoch of familial bliss was begun. Moral of the story, go here, eat cheese, solve world peace. My motto, so much cheese, so little time. It's how I live my life. read more

I really liked this shop and don't think the negative reviews are warranted. The cheeses are reasonably priced, at least according to this Manhattanite! We got the pecorino romano and garrotxa. Both were delicious. We also bought their pesto sauce - can't wait to taste it! The service was friendly and accommodating. read more

This is a cute store, but insanely overpriced. I've been to very nice cheese shops and never ever paid prices like I did here. I bought a small sliver of goat gouda and some cotswald. In total, the size was less than a 16-slice block of American cheese. It was $20! I just can't get over the cost of two itty bitty slices of cheese. read more

This shop has a wonderful selection of cheese and other gourmet items, plus great sandwiches. There's a daily soup - I had a black bean soup that was amazing! The staff are welcoming and knowledgeable. We did a cheese tasting that was so fun. Highly recommend. read more

Beautiful shop! Nice place to sit outside and eat a sandwich on the picnic tables. We got some delicious cheeses, we enjoyed an excellent cheddar from March of 2006! It was so good! I think my Dad ate a whole pound! They also sell wines, crackers, fancy little jams and jellys from the Chatham Jam and Jelly Store which is an EXCELLENT store! The very best thing were these delicous Bequet Celtic Sea Salt Caramels. They are $3.99 for four and you bet I bought a lot of them. I am not a big sweets person, but these were perfect. My whole family loved them. Can't wait to come back next year! read more

Amazing cheese & gourmet food and wine shop in Chatham! This is probably one of my favorite places on the Cape. A must-do for anyone passing through. They also have a wide variety of local products - including a wine that restores 100 oysters per bottle! read more

Hands down, best sandwich you can get in town. I got the brie and fig and it was.... I will dream about that sandwich. So delicious. Sure it's a little pricier than other places in town but you're paying for incredible quality. read more

Amazing!!! Looking for things to do in the cape and they fit us in for a private tasting. The selection of cheese and wine was phenomenal and I would definitely come back again. read more

Loved this place so much we twice drove an hour each way to purchase cheeses during our one week stay on the Cape. The man behind the counter is very knowledgeable about their cheeses and made wonderful suggestions based on our likes. We loved them all. Also picked up tasty crackers, nuts and parmesan chips. All perfect with the variety of cheeses. Stop by folks. You won't be disappointed. read more

Maybe we were here on an off-day but we took a drive based on so many nice reviews and honestly, there were only about a dozen cheeses to choose from and they were awkwardly placed in a low display case that you had to bend over to look into as opposed to an above-the-waist case that I've seen at every other cheese shop. Anyway, the clerk (owner) was not very welcoming, friendly, or attentive and offered no help or suggestions for which cheeses to try. I was disappointed to be left on my own but did manage to pick a few cheeses that were delicious. The other items they offer for sale such as crackers, jellies, etc. can be found in any upscale grocer like Wegman's or WholeFoods or even Fairway at a fraction of the cost here but it was nice to have everything in one place. I was surprised to see how much wine they offer for sale because I wasn't expecting that at all. Overall, I might visit again if having company because they do have some different cheeses than you'll find other places, but it is expensive and not overly helpful. read more

Walking through the doors of this shop plunges me right back into all of the romance and vibrant life of a Parisian Cafe! The shop is adorable, the French music is delightful, and the cheeses- wow. I've never experienced such a wide variety of quality and fairly priced cheeses. Walking up to the cheese window at first can be daunting but then worries immediately cease as their incredibly friendly employees welcome you and generously let you taste all of the different cheeses. It is such a lovely experience as they take their time to educate their customers about the product. They are obviously excited about cheese and their excitement is contagious! It's a lovely experience from the moment you enter to the moment you leave. The only problem with the shop is that you never want to leave! I can't wait to go back!!! read more

I love Chatham Cheese Co... The sandwiches are fresh and delicious. The variety of cheese is on point, she has three different types of truffle cheese, a great selection of French and Italian options. The shop is also filled with speciality foods to accompany a purchase especially if your having a gathering last minute! read more

Good cheeses, good service - just a little overpriced. Overall I would have liked a bit more help with picking out interesting stuff. But no major complaints here, and I'd probably go back again. read more

Excellent selection. Friendly service. We ordered several selections and tasted a couple of additional items. Prices were a bit high but in line with other high end cheese shops. read more

Great selection of cheese. I can see how this would be a great site to stop before heading to the beach or on your boat for the day. They have cheese, baguettes, wines and a small selection of beer. I would have given 4 stars but I genuinely felt that the women behind the country, who I assume was the owner, really didn't care if I was there or not. read more

While on vacation, we went in for some special cheeses that you can't get in a regular supermarket. Given how large the store is, you'd think that they would have more cheese on display, especially in the height of the tourist season. We asked for a couple of kinds of cheese we enjoy from another specialty cheese shop that we frequent. They did not have it. Instead of knowing that type of cheese or inquiring about what style, flavor, texture we were looking for or offering a taste of something, the unfriendly clerk just gave off a slightly unpleasant vibe. I'm not blaming the staff. The owner should train the staff in greeting customers and at least a little something about the cheeses they carry. We did not buy cheese. We looked at wine, but again, given the big size of the shop, you 'd think they'd have more of a variety on hand. Didn't bother asking about the wine. read more

Best place on Cape Cod to buy cheese! Located across from Del Mar restaurant, right on route 28. Heather can always recommend a great cheese and there is always a lot to choose from....never disappointed in her recommendations! If you're lucky enough, you may go on a day that the Mac and cheese is made...simply delicious! The only downside to this place is it is not open year round, but totally worth the wait until spring!! read more

Overpriced, poor quantity and rude service. I ordered a tray of cheese and fruit for 6 people and was expecting a nice, ample presentation. I was charged $65 for a small tray that would feed maybe 3 people and was worth no more than $35 (taking into account the high prices during the summer tourist season.) When I complained to one of the owners, she was totally dismissive and could care less about customer satisfaction. Don't waste your money at this place!! read more

What did we ever do before this opened ?? What a gem of a cheese shop - gourmet items galore in addition to a vast and delicious cheese selection. The staff truly knows their stuff - I know very little about the different types of cheeses, and they explained each kind with passion and even let me taste before buying! Only negative: wish we could sit and have a glass of wine along with a cheese platter! read more

This place is wonderful. The owner is so sweet and kind and orders things special for me all the time. She really knows her cheeses. I love the sandwiches...you can have a wonderful lunch there and sit outside on the picnic benches on the big front lawn. It is the only place I can get find to get burrata cheese on the cape. Highly recommend a visit! read more

Such a snooty place! The sales associates were acting like they personally milk the cows, hunt for truffles and age cheese in cellars for decades. Rude, very curt staff greeted us with an attitude as if we could not afford any of their "gourmet overpriced" products. We were just driving through town, my husband and our three kids. The staff at the store was especially displeased seeing children in their establishment. Please, I fly to Europe every year and can purchase anything I wish at real GOURMET places. This pretentious good for nothing place is not worth it! read more
