Absolutely lucked into this place while visiting our daughter at a nearby college. We were headed to the donut shop next door and saw the sign for the cheese shop. (Certainly a lucky neighborhood) [[HIGHLIGHT]]It looks small from the street but once you walk in, it opens up to a sizable store.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] We were greeted by a friendly staff member, he took the time to describe their cheese selection and the other things going on in the shop. He then pivoted to giving us tons of help selecting the right cheese. We sampled a couple of things and then he dialed in three choices for us to buy. (With an assist from another customer that insisted that we would love the Delice de Bourgogne) Prices were reasonable enough for the quality. We added some gourmet crackers that were neutral enough to not overpower the cheese. The next day, we made the three cheeses the focus of our lunch. The Delice de Bourgogne was the star of the show, a creamy, earthy, and savory masterpiece. The two year aged Gouda and creamy blue cheese were delightful as well! Truly glad that we walked into The Cheese Traveler! read more

The Cheese Traveler - Couple of delicious cheeses! - Cheese Shops Near Me - Albany, New York

What a fantastic find -- a small but very well curated collection of cheeses, with an extremely knowledgeable staff who don't pressure you but provide help where needed. We appreciated the relatively local (Quebec, VT, NY) cheeses they have, and our destination cheese, Wisconsin Brick (which we had never tried before, and which they were quite willing to work with us on getting the appropriate size). The sandwiches looked delicious but we were there at the wrong time of day, alas, but we will 100% be back. If you like cheese, this is a destination location for the region. read more

The Cheese Traveler - Cheese Shops Near Me - Albany, New York

The Cheese Traveler is a hidden treasure in Albany. Its unassuming exterior hides a glorious cheese shop with grilled cheese sandwiches to eat in or take out, and bespoke charcuterie boards as well as other gourmet treats like cookies, local beers and chocolates. I was there on a Saturday about noon, and there was only one other person in there. I still can't figure out why. The sweet and savory grilled cheese is made with duck breast and blueberry jam. It is simply amazing. This is a small shop with a plethora of items like international cheeses and deli case. They also host cheese making classes. If you are in the Albany area, do not miss this place. You will not be disappointed. As the name suggests, the cheese brings you back. read more

Seriously, get off the highway for this place! We debated whether it would be worth adding the time to our already long 10 hour drive when we saw a review saying "Totally worth getting off the highway." We took that as a sign, and I am so glad we did. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The shop looks small and unassuming from the outside, but as soon as I walked in a woman working behind the counter said, "Would you like to try a weird cheese?"[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] And in the moment she became my new best friend. She introduced me to several new cheeses from their extensive collection, and then served me the best grilled cheese I've had in ages, and I literally wrote a book about a grilled cheese chef, so I kind of know a lot about grilled cheeses. This place is so legit it will become a regular stop every time we drive the New York Thruway. read more

This place is small but the variety of cheese is amazing and extensive! They also have a selection of local meats and pickles.

We wouldn't hesitate to stop here again and highly recommend that you stop and try it out as well! read more

I make the trip across NY State on the Thruway several times per year and I value any decent place I can stop that isn't just the rest areas. The Cheese Traveler was a great surprise! Its cheese selection is quite varied, and they had several cheeses that I can't get at my fancy cheese shop in CT. The owner was pretty knowledgeable too -- when I asked about one French cheese, she said she didn't have it, but her suggestion as an alternative clearly indicated she knew that cheese's profile. I had the duck sandwich for lunch. It was a little small, but reasonably priced for the size. Next time I'll know to order two :-) . They had a lot of artisanal goods and the local pork cheek and rabbit pate was amazingly good, probably the best pate I've had in the US. read more

A MUST stop for cheeses and cheese paninis! ++. Ambiance is an out of place WELL CURATED cheese-shop. Inside is bright and cheerful. +++. Along with imported and domestic cheese, they have a little of everything you need for charcuterie boards, picnic or a take out. CT also makes delicious and interesting cheese sandwiches! Saw oil roasted Marconas I've not seen for a year! I tried their Smoked Duck with aged alpine lace cheese and blueberry jam sammie. It was phenomenal :)). They carry local Saratoga Springs mineral water and Pellegrino. +. Price is fair for the quality +++. Service is warm and accommodating. Mary the owner was very knowledgeable and nice. She kindly offered to change the cheese on my sammie for my dietary needs without me even asking :)). +. Parking is a small private lot shared with another merchant. It's free with a tiny garden.

The Cheese Traveler is that unimaginable high 5 star local micro-store! This cheese store is behind some shrubs, in a corner mall, near 4 car spots. Really though, it's the name that intrigued me. Cheese is a past time of mine. I've palated and paired cheeses in numerous countries; cheese made by goats, cows, sheep's, yaks and many more. I have eaten cheese with snake meat. Fondue. Cheese on sticks. Cheeses out of the fire. Cheese balls. String cheese. Mozzarella. Cheese eaten with white wines. Parisian cheese. You name it, I've most likely tried it! I'm the Rebel Chef after all. So of course, my nasal flavor-fluency had to come and give this shop a try and I needed to leave a manly review. The Cheese Traveler has it all. Coming in there is a 'cool' shelf in the front and room-temp display on the left, as well as wonderful charcuterie, hand sliced salami, pancetta, olives, capers, shelves of wine, breads and heaps and heaps of beers. Bottles of beer. Cans of beer! They sell anything associated with cheeses, snack hours and picnics: wafers, crackers, chips, wines, aperitif foods. And then. There's an islet in the middle - just a small stand, not much frills - where there are a few 'end' cheese bits (odds + ends), all price marked but just random stuff, for sale. My heart beat jumped, because I hate spending $50 bucks on a pound of cheese I won't like. There's a FRENCH word - un bon mot Francaise - for an idea like this, this little 'bargain-stand': 'Degustation'! When I came around, this place stunned me with the level of friendliness. Not trying to make a sale, not stepping all over me, not watching over me. The women were unbelievably friendly, happy, gracious. They gave me some pointers on local 'stinky' cheeses and ran some meats thru the cutter. All the while I had a wonderful and long-lived customer convo with all of them; about food, sandwiches, Albany. This is one of the places you don't miss. They make real thick, real mean sandwiches for satisfying lunches and they have tables inside to sit and snack and talk. For a small local 'cheese shop' The Cheese Traveler has the right name and place. Five stars all day every day here - it packs a real Yelp-punch. Great low prices too! Fantastic micro-store/butcher.

With a cheese connoisseur for a dad, I found this place and thought it was a must. It's a hole in the wall but arranged beautifully with cheeses, dried meats, drinks, sweets, and what felt like one-of-a-kind items. They offered a variety of cheeses and the attendant was incredibly knowledgable. They make pressed sandwiches, which we all ordered. When we visited, there was no place to sit inside but with a decent drive home, we sat in the parking lot to save the integrity of the food. The sandwiches come with a pickle which was great and we added the tomato soup for one of them. The idea is great, a sandwich with fancy meats and cheeses paired into hot sandwiches. Unfortunately, the pairings were super salty and greasy and the cheese was obliterated by the panini press. Has SO much potential but I wouldn't go back for the sandwiches again. Also was kind of sad to see local cheeses priced higher than I've found in other locations. Mixed bag overall but still worth a visit. read more

CHEESE AS FAR AS THE EYE CAN SEE!!! I wouldn't say I'm a cheese connoisseur, but I do like cheese more than my lactose-intolerant self should. I was excited to see the variety of cheese available at the Cheese Traveler, as well as the shopkeepers' knowledge of their cheese varieties and what would interest their customer. I got a Sweet N' Savory: it was more on the sweet side, which helped to balance the heavy cheese and duck breast. My boyfriend got the Italian, which was also very tasty! I also ended up getting a small slice of Butterkase cheese, which has a nice rich taste and is definitely up my alley. Next time I need to make a charcuterie board I'm going to be stopping by The Cheese Traveler! read more

OMG! This place is amazing! We tried 3 of the grilled cheese sandwiches and you cannot go wrong with any of them. The Sweet and Savory was recommended and wow!! [[HIGHLIGHT]]The atmosphere is delightful and the owner is so lovely.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Do not pass on The Cheese Traveler. read more

Totally worth getting off the highway! We went seeking a simple lunch, but beyond basic chains at travel plazas. We were greeted by Mary, who was wonderful and flexible "right off the bat" as we made our "difficult" choices from so many good options, and thought through something our kid w Autism would eat. (We didn't realize Mary was the owner/cheese traveler until later). Wide selection of artisanal cheeses & meats to choose from; grilled for lunch, to-go ala carte, or curated in a "grazing" box. Everything we had (grilled cheese sandwiches, soup, snacks and an amazing block of crystal-y gouda) was soooo good, including & especially the conversation about all things cheese & travel. Grateful & happy read more

What an amazing shop! We were on our way to a concert at SPAC and decided to stop by here to get some treats to have at the venue. Some decadent, fancy, delicious treats. The cheese monger there was able to help us select a few cheeses and some duck prosciutto and duck pastrami (no pig for this girl). The meats were SO good and the cheese equally as delicious. We only wish we could have gone back to get more. Staff here was friendly and patient. They have cookouts every Friday and the burgers on the grill smelled delicious. Definitely stop by here if you're in the area and love cheese! read more

The Cheese Traveler - Simple Pleasure with ham - Cheese Shops Near Me - Albany, New York

My husband decided to bring me here as a fun date night. We talked to Mary who was friendly and knowledgeable. After sampling some cheeses she helped us curate a dinner box with 4 cheeses, 2 meats and our choice of crackers or bread. We opted for black pepper water crackers which were very good.. The rest of the box was filled with an assortment of fruit, jam, nuts, cornishons, chocolate, and a honey stick. The store is quaint with an eclectic assortment of chocolate, candy, chips, tea, sodas, pasta, milk and other local products. They have some amazing sounding grilled cheese sandwiches. With duck...yes please! I wish I had known about their summer bbq menus sooner. Tomorrow is the last night and I'm not sure if we'll be able to get back there but everything on the menu sounds good. I highly recommend the Cheese Traveler. read more

I don't know a lot about cheese, except that it makes for some of the best jokes. However, for a while now this place has been on my radar and a series of events (such as "date night" coinciding with the store's late hours) allowed us to come here and explore their offerings. It is a small shop, located on Delaware Ave. in a set of stores that is easy to miss if you don't have a smart phone or a very observant wife/navigator! When we walked in it was obvious that this was a fun little store with a wide variety of cheeses. However, it wasn't cold (as in full of fridge coolers) at all but instead warm and pleasant. Which is also exactly how I would describe Mary, the woman who helped us. She walked us through several types of cheddar cheeses which my wife likes, providing samples and commentary along the way. Then, she made some recommendations regarding soft cheeses. They appear to only have one variety of Provolone (one of my favorites) and it was quite good, but I do wish there were more. We decided to get a box filled with four types of cheese, two types of meats (beef sausage and spec), various fruits (strawberries, two types of grapes, blueberries) nuts, corn nuts (a surprising but welcome addition!), honey sticks, and marmalade. All worked well together with the crackers provided and it was easily enough for two rather hungry and adventurous adults. I won't lie... it wasn't inexpensive... but for a special occasion it was certainly special. Going back, I think I would focus more on some of their interesting cured meats and other local items like jams on the walls. Go take a look at the EXTENSIVE list of items they have on their website as being in stock, and then wonder how anyone could possibly see them all in just one visit. It was a lot of fun and I hope to get back. read more

I had the pleasure of snacking on a board from The Cheese Traveler when I was at an event at Marcus Blaque in Troy and OH MY GOD I could have (and pretty much did) eat the whole thing by myself. The selection of cheese was fantastic and the accompaniments were divine (crackers, hearty bread, cornichons, corn nuts, berries, FIGS, different well-paired and well-thought jams/preserves, etc), so much so that I had to call and request a graze box for myself and two friends when the weather decided to play nice (an impromptu picnic was exactly what the doctor ordered). Becky was nothing but absolutely lovely and personable, from start to finish. She put together a graze box for me, asking me if I had any cheese preferences (I deferred to her expertise and she was smart enough to at least clarify whether I was fond of blue cheese, because I'm not!), and had it all together with within half an hour. It was absolutely perfect for 3 people at $55 and no one was left feeling unsatisfied. I have every intention of going back and just browsing their selections to stock my own pantry and fridge, so unsurprisingly this is a must visit for anyone who loves a good cheese. I'm embarrassed I didn't know it was here sooner! I'll be sure to take some pictures next time when my mouth isn't watering in anticipation. read more

If you have an interest in international (and domestic) cheeses, charcuterie, beverages, and all things that can accompany these (and more) as well as a bit of discretionary income, you would probably love this place instantly. Recently displaced from the mid-Hudson Valley, I was wondering where I would go to get my "fix" of the sorts of cheeses and meats I could get at my previous go-to place (Adams), and then I discovered Cheese Traveler. The folks here are just so welcoming and helpful, and the inventory is impressive. They even offer "cheese education," should one be so inclined. On my first visit here, I got my fix on French cheeses (including Roquefort), and I predict numerous return trips. read more

This place has a great selection of cured meats and cheeses from different regions. They also have different varieties of grilled cheeses that are good. Blue Jay cheese - particular blue cheese called Blue Jay which is pretty outstanding, and I don't even like blue cheese. We bought one of their charcuterie platters and it came packed with rich cured meat flavors and pairings. The duck pastrami - holy cow, their duck pastrami is really rich, peppery and downright delicious. They paired it with some sweet mustard that really brought out the flavors of the duck. Overall, the quality and selection of their products is really good and their service is great. One of the things this place needs is a little bit of a better seating area. However, I'm rating them on the quality of their selection and service. read more

High-quality artisan cheeses, meats, beverages, and goods. The staff are knowledgeable and extremely helpful.

This is about as quaint as it gets, a little cheese store where you can shop for gourmet ingredients or have an amazing grilled cheese sandwich at one the handful of tables. You'll find free samples of cheeses and olive oil with bread, cases of exotic cured meats and cheeses, and a chalkboard menu of the most phenomenal and exquisite sandwiches. There were eight featured sandwiches upon our visit, all grilled with Rodolphe le Meunier butter. I selected the Spicy and Smokey, an amazing sandwich with Bulgarian Feta, fresh artichokes, and Nduja (an Italian salumi spread that adds a little kick). The employees were so hospitable and the experience was quite amazing. This is probably the best grilled cheese sandwich I've ever eaten! read more

Cheese lovers assemble - you have found your mecca right here in Albany at the cheese traveler. And the best part...They offer way more than just cheese! In all honesty- my first visit here was more exploratory, didn't really settle down for anything in particular, left with a few goodies but wanted to save the real test for a time when I could bring my wife and a full appetite - alas, this happened Sunday. The grilled cheese board is one that can't be missed when entering the store. With names such as the Smokey Mountain (Ham, onions, cider jelly), and Sweet and Savory (Smoked duck breast and blueberry jam), you simply can't go wrong, but I wanted something a bit more traditional and opted for the Simple Pleasure, which is their take on an old-school grilled cheese, made with cheddar and havarti. Gooey, delicious and cooked perfectly. The bread has a generous coating of butter and I paired it with their butternut squash soup which was a true home-run. Next time I will step it up and add Benton's Bacon or the Flying Pigs ham, but I wanted to try a basic grilled cheese the first time around. 5-Stars. The wife wanted to sample a multitude of cheeses and meats and decided to go with the combination Monger's Choice - two cheeses and two meats, served with as much bread as you can eat. Remember how I told you they have more than cheese? Well, they do, and a fine selection of craft and european beers also line the store - we went with a classic Reissdorf Kolsch, which lent itself perfectly with our meal. The service was great, and the young lady who worked the counter answered all my questions with ease and was happy to offer any samples. Definitely a fine place to go for lunch or just stop in to take something home! read more

Even in the soft opening, before the meat slicer is fully operational, and with the shelves still filling up with product, this is by far the best cheese counter and gourmet market in the greater Capital Region. Eric Paul the cheesemonger here has a passion for raw milk, small production cheeses. And while he's been selling local cheeses at his table at the Delmar farmers market for the past two years, now he has the ability to bring us great cheeses from all around the world. Seriously, you have to see this selection to believe it. This isn't just a place that's "great for Albany" as the cheese selection here would be impressive in any major metropolitan area. Except whereas in Brooklyn, this shop might be tucked into a small and narrow space, here it's next to All Good Bakers and even has a parking lot (in the old Chocolate Gecko space on Delaware Ave). read more

The Cheese Traveler is the perfect place to go for incredible, gourmet, grilled cheese goodness. It's a small cheese shop with only a few tables, serving fancy grilled cheeses and soups. This review speaks only to the food part of the store as I didn't purchase anything else. For our meal, we split two grilled cheeses and each had half of one. We enjoyed The Sweet & Savory and a special that they had going for that day: "The Kanye." If they have the Kanye as a special (ask about it!), GET IT. The sandwich came together with some incredible pate, Crescenza cheese (with raw milk -- so smooth and delightful) and some gold flake jam. That's right, gold flakes in the jam. Pretty fancy. I don't think I've ever consumed gold before, but it was worth it. Each bite of the sandwich had a variety of mixed flavors. The Sweet & Savory was a mix of duck breast and preserves, definitely an interesting combination and came together pretty well, but when comparing to the special sandwich it fell short just because each bite didn't have the same "wow-factor" and coming together of the ingredients that "The Kanye" offered. All in all, a fantastic cheese shop which serves up some incredible bites. Highly recommended! read more

We stopped by on a mid-afternoon a few days prior to their "grand opening" celebration to see what was available at this new business. We were first impressed with the aroma of the cheeses upon entering. The owner, Eric Paul, approached us as we looked around the shop, and offered assistance by way of saying, "tell me what kind of cheese you like and I'll suggest cheeses that I have that are similar." My wife said she enjoyed Monchego. Mr. Paul further inquired about her interest in sheep cheese before eventually providing us with tastes of four different sheep cheeses. He explained that two were cooked cheeses and two were raw; two were from Spain and two were from France. All four were fantastic tasting. We chose to purchase the Tomme Brulee ($27.95/lb) - a traditional raw sheep's milk cheese. The label used to seal the wrapping of our purchase provides a brief description of the cheese and suggests possible wine pairings. Nice idea. We also saw an assistant stocking shelves with various jams and crackers. When we inquired about the jams, Mr. Paul offered us samples of two that would complement our purchase. They were so delicious we ended up purchasing both: a Red Fig Preserve from France ($9.95) and a Black Cherry Jam ($14.50) also from France. The Cheese Traveler also sells meats from Tilldale Farm in Hoosick, NY, and a selection of fine cured meats from the U.S. and Europe, cured olives, pickles, specialty pastas, crackers, biscuits, and accompaniments such as jams and fine chocolates and candies. read more

Cute little store with an AWESOME selection of local and non local cheese, locally slaughtered grass fed beef, and other neat products. Most impressive over everything was Eric's ability to describe the cheeses we tasted, I will henceforth call him the cheese whisperer.

We stopped here on a road trip for NYE and could not help but be attracted to a giant cheese shop with amazing little goodies everywhere you turn. Eric, the owner, was so friendly! He was helpful when we had to pick our lunch options and was quick to answer any questions. If you want a yummy beverage...try the rose lemonade...its delicious! There were so many niche drinks but it caught my eye. For lunch, I tried the truffle pig sandwich and the spicy & smoky. Both were delicious. I just wished they were a bit more packed, I felt like the bread to filling ratio was like 60/40. However, I did check-in on yelp and got a delicious carmel treat and 2 for my friends as well. We also got some awesome potato chips that were bacon flavored. So we were #winning. If I'm ever in the neighborhood again, I will definitely stop by and actually buy some cheese! read more

While I originally bookmarked the bakery next door I stumbled upon this lovely and 'cheesy' gem in Delso and decided to have lunch before getting sweet fixings. They were extremely knowledgeable, friendly, and welcoming. I was astonished by the cheese selection and the menu which included some very special sandwiches. I tried both the Sweet + Savory (pawlet, smoked duck breast, sour cherry preserves), Frankie Says (tome rabelais, apricot jam, jamon serrano) and the French Onion soup. The Sweet + Savory is part of the regularly offered menu but the Frankie Says was on a weekly special, as I was told each week the specials rotate. The Sweet + Savory though was what really stood out for me as I enjoyed the combination of the saltiness of the cheese, smoked flavor of the duck breast, and the not overly sweet/sour taste of cherry preserves. Best of all is that they were served on warm and toasty bread. The French Onion soup was also a nice addition to the meal, but I could've done without it. Depending on what you choose I was told the sandwiches sometimes take a little longer to make due to the melting time for the cheese and the assembly of the masterpiece. Well...whatever it takes to savor the experience! read more
