Cool little place. Friendly and knowledgeable staff. She gave great wine and cheese recommendations. We really enjoyed the brie and goat cheeses we had. I had a tasty beer that hit the spot. We also tasted several of the wines they offer. Yum! I highly recommend checking this place out. It is fun and unique. read more

I adore Truckle Cheesemongers. Their location in the Museum District is so inviting and bright. It's a great spot for special events like cheese yoga or to simply catch up with a friend over cheese and wine. Their orange wine is great! I don't think I've tried a "bad" cheese (don't even think that's a thing?) there yet. And the folks working are always friendly and welcoming. Really reasonable pricing for their offerings too! read more

I am so glad I finally got to try this place out! Went out with a good friend to catch up and she recommended this place. You will NOT be disappointed. A very unique place for wine and cheese! Plenty of parking around this place and located in the Devil's Triangle. The staff are super friendly and so nice, I couldn't decide on what wine to drink and the staff let us sample some of their open wine before making a decision. The place is super adorable and lots of cute decorations. I LOVE the support for local goods that they have in their store. The place is clean and the decor are attractive. Their raclette is a must-try! I've never had it before and so glad I got the opportunity to finally try it. I've been telling all my wine and cheese lover friends about this place. A must! read more

I love Truckle Cheesemongers. This spot is a wine and cheese lover's paradise. Located in the Devil's Triangle in Museum District, there are usually easy to find free parking spots out front. You can also bike or bus here. They used to be located in Blue Bee, but they've been in this new location for a while now. The vibe is amazing. There is so much great natural lighting and quite a few options for comfy seating. It's a casual spot. They really make cheese approachable here which I love. My friends and I recently went for Raclette Sunday. They have this during colder months on Sundays from 12-5pm. I had always wanted to try it because I love the French style raclette. Turns out they do a different style here, and everything already has the delicious cheese poured on it for you. I wish I knew this in advance, but it was hard to learn more beyond the date and time on their website and Instagram. I think their Instagram tells you the different type of raclette's you can get that specific week, but I haven't been back to confirm yet. Do know they pour the cheese on for you behind the counter. So if you want to see the cheese wheel you'll have to stand there to watch. They are super accommodating and kind here. The last few times I've gone, my bestie who is gluten-free has been given gluten-free options. They also had one of my favorite Duke's Hot Tomato Summer specials this year. This is a fantastic spot to take a date or meet up with friends at. Even though it's a casual spot, the whole vibe is really elevated by the quality of service and products here so it makes it feel special. It's great for a light snack or a meal. I highly recommend checking it out. read more

So cute, great staff, great snacks and wine. Yet to try the grilled cheese but I'm sure it's great too. So cozy but with limited seating so you just have to hit it at the right time to grab a seat. read more

First time to their new location very busy on a Sunday afternoon. Lots and lots of different kinds of cheese and beautiful cheese plates. One of my favorite foods in the world is a grilled cheese and they had three different options and it was quite yummy. nice selection of wine and beers. They also have cheese and wine, you can take home. read more

I went on Sunday for lunch and it will now become a regular sandwich spot for me! I already loved popping in for a cheese tray and glass of wine, or to get some cheese to go, but the sandwiches are a game changer! I split a turkey, Brie, and Dijon and the prosciutto Brie sandwiches. Both were so rich and so good! I usually go in in the evenings, but going at lunch had a whole new feel! It was very cool and casual and laid back! Check it out for a good fresh sandwich! read more

Truckle Cheesemongers is an incredibly nice bespoke experience for cheese afficionados, and I happen to be one! After seeing all of their amazing photos on Instagram, I knew I had to stop by and give them a try as soon as possible. While the timing didn't work out on their raclette (which is only on Sundays and only for part of the year), I still came by with a friend and tried out their special grilled cheese and the incredible Luxembourg Gardens, which we split. It's impossible to pick a favorite since they were perfect from start to finish: delicious bread, fantastic meat, and the most savory cheese imaginable. We didn't opt for alcohol on this occasion, though my friend did order a latte and she thoroughly enjoyed it. Our server was excellent and made regular callbacks to ensure we had everything we needed. She was very polite and went out of her way to educate us on the offerings here. I would definitely consider this a treat, not only because of how great it is but also because it's definitely on the pricier side for lunch fare. That said, you get what you pay for, which is an unforgettable luncheon! If you can spare the silver and the time to find a parking place, you should absolutely try it out. Overall: 4.5 stars ----- Pros: - Some of the creamiest, most delicious cheese I have ever had, paired with outrageously good bread and meets. - Excellent, personalized service, a rarity these days. - Nice interior. - Great selection of specialty bleu cheeses in the case. Cons: - Prices are rather high (ended up being a $40 lunch even without alcohol) but still absolutely worth it. - Parking around here is touch and go, all I can say is mind the signage and be prepared for a little walk on busy days. read more

Truckle Cheesemongers is an amazing wine & cheese shop with a variety of cheeses and wines! The service is impeccable! I truly enjoy their staff. They are very knowledgeable and personable. The quaint wine shop is the perfect place to decompress and let your hair down! I have tried a variety of cheeses and wines! They introduced me to orange wine and I'm never turning back! Their small plates are delicious and if you're a cheese girl like me then you should definitely try one of their grilled cheese sandwiches! 10/10 I would highly recommend Truckle Cheesemongers! read more

Truckle's is now located at 714 N Sheppard St. They used to be inside BlueBee cider. The new location is more of a bar/cafe. There's plenty of bar stools and small cafe tables. The restaurant looks clean and neat. They have a nice cheese, wine and beer section to choose from. The are also a small market where you can grab various items to go. I like stopping in when we don't have a lot of time to have a full dinner. The service at the bar is quick and friendly. The staff is always willing to go over the menu with you. They always have interesting cheeses which you probably won't find in most other stores. So it's fun to try something new. My only complaint would be that the wines they sell at the bar by the glass are not offered in the market area. So if you enjoyed a glass of wine at the bar you can't buy a bottle to go. They offer different wines in the market. They have a cheese club where you can pickup a different cheese box every quarter paired with crackers or bread and some fruit or nuts. The selection and side pairings seem to go well. read more

Truckle Cheesemongers just moved to my neighborhood so I had to try it! The atmosphere is the perfect balance of quaint and elevated. I love the way they designed the space! A variety of seating including tables, bar seating, and lounge seating options. All the staff were super friendly, knowledgeable, and helpful in deciding what to get. My friend and I each got the bubbly and we split a small cheese board ($19) which you select 3 cheeses from a list, and it came with almonds, raisins, and unlimited bread. We got the brie, blue cheese, and manchego. All were surprisingly stronger than other cheeses I've had but very good! On Thursdays they also create pairings for free tastings which was fun to try! Overall it was a great experience. A little pricy for me to be a regular but I had a great time, and I recommend as something fun and different to do, or if you are looking for an elevated but intimate atmosphere! read more

I'm mad at myself for not discovering this place earlier!! This is a cute cheese bar with lots of variety of cheeses and wine pairings. As a cheese lover I had to try their cheese plates and their grilled cheese! OMG their signature grilled cheese featuring a shelburne cheddar with a lemon tarragon mayo was to die for!! The gooey cheese with the prominent herbs and subtle mayo/citrus flavors made me want more. For the cheese plate, I got to try the following cheeses (in order of my preference): -appalachian (raw cow) - definitely more classic "cheese" flavors and very creamy. Paired really well with the dried cherries! -albala (sheep) - couldn't really tell the honey but definitely with floral notes and strong rosemary spices!! Paired really well with the ham and bread. -ossau (raw sheep) - a little stronger lamb flavor but still pretty good. Paired well with the dried apricots. -Lady Edison Country Ham - we wanted to try something local and this country ham was a little stronger and "meatier" than your typical prosciutto -Also wanted to give a shoutout to their dried apricot because it wasn't too sweet and had a mint-y almost basil-y aftertaste that made it super refreshing when paired with the ossau sheep cheese. Overall very cute aesthetics with in/outdoor seating, bar area, and bright lighting with accents of dark green/blue!! The plates and plating of food were also very pretty. Staff were nice and patient! Hands down would recommend for a quick bite/happy hour/date!! read more

Finally Richmond has their own cheese shop! Yay! They opened a month ago and the place is still looking a bit rough but cheese selection and service definitely makes up for it. They are still bringing furniture/display cases in but that didn't bother us. They have great cheese and meat selections, wines and crackers too. We ordered large cheese tray 35$, small is 19$ - you pick 3 out of 5 different cheeses that are on menu. I guess selection changes. There's also cured meats selection and we ordered prosciutto 10$. They make charcuterie board with your cheese/meat selection and add some dried fruits, nuts, sliced bread and crackers and bring it to your table. Looked very pretty and tasty and I would say large is plenty for 3 people. Cheeses we picked were pecorino, manchego and Swiss alpine - they give you description of each cheese so you pick what you like! You can get extra bread or crackers if needed. My friends and I shared a bottle of Cava nice light sparking wine. We also tried their house made pimiento cheese which was cheesy, tangy and peppery but not spicy. They were offering samples of house made beer cheese - creamy and with some kick and not too hoppy. As for other foods they have sandwiches like grilled cheese but we didn't try it. There's no menu for those as far as I know so I'm assuming they make sandwich of the day or something like that. It was not clearly noted anywhere. All in all this place is looking great and very promising! I'm looking forward coming back soon! read more

We have been truckle fans for a long time ever sense they opened up at the old location. We did the cheese club and it was so cool getting new cheeses every month. Love the new spot and how you can just grab some wine or beer with your cheese and sit in a beautiful space relaxing. We are big fans of the owner too! Def don't want to miss this spot. read more

My family stopped in to order ingredients for a do it at home board. The customer service was amazing! We were approached by attentive, kind, knowledgeable employees just after entering the store and they helped pick out the best products for our board. Everyone in the store seemed to be having a great time and my wife and I certainly discussed the need for us to come back and sit down and spend some time here in the future. Such a fun, laid back atmosphere! Most importantly, when we got home and put the stuff we bought on our board it was perfect, so delicious! read more

Run; don't walk to this amazing cheese shop and wine bar. My husband and I had their wonderful signature grilled cheese and some wine for our last dining out meal of the year and really loved it. Their new brick and mortar space is within walking distance of our place. It's really nice with seating at the bar, a few tables and some lounge sofas. The ladies at the shop were super friendly as well. Just really dig that place. Anyway, I plan to take their charcuterie board making class next time they have it. Highly recommended! Oh and I left with a jar of cornichons too that went so nicely with their grilled cheese. You'll find everything you need here to make your own charcuterie board at home! read more

I love cheese but I don't know much about cheese and I'm so pleased that Truckle is here to curate cheese for my palate. I've bought cheese from them before at events and markets but I'm so glad they are doing delivery in Richmond right now. They are also really easy to work with and will cut to price and weight. Their products are reasonably priced but I still have to stay on budget and they help me do that. Plus I know I am going to like their selections and not risk picking up something odd from a large bin at the grocery. Thank you for your skill and cheese! read more

Finally we have a cheese shop! This cute little shop inside Blue Bee Cider also serves up sandwiches you can enjoy with your cider. I discovered this place while participating in a wreath making workshop in one of Blue Bee's event spaces. They would take orders in the shop for either a grilled cheese or the sandwich special of the day, then deliver them to you in the event space. The staff person was friendly and my half special sandwich of prosciutto and brie was delicious. They grilled it for me so it would be warm and gooey and wonderful. I will definitely be back. read more

Truckle Cheesemongers is located within the Blue Bee Cidery "compound" within the old tasting room. We visited for their grand opening day and were very pleased with the selections. Lots of European cheeses and several we had not heard of. We selected quarter pound portions of three different cheeses, which we will enjoy with tonight's dinner. Samples were neither offered nor requested so I do not know if these are available. The two women behind the counter were very knowledgeable about the characteristics and the stories behind the various cheeses on offer. They did not get flustered or hurried by the steady stream of people coming in the shop and took their time with us, which made me feel like they appreciated us being there. Prices were not cheap but not overly high considering this is a boutique shop with higher end offerings. The variety was good, not as broad as Wegman's I thought, but different from them as well. Certainly better than anything else I have seen in one location within the city limits. Also available were a good assortment of gift basket items (oils, vinegars, crackers, etc). The real bonus surprises were the baguettes for sale from Idle Hands Bread Company on Strawberry Street and an offered grilled cheese sandwich that was griddle cooked and served with an ample accompaniment of green olives. The sandwich was gooey and sweet and complex and rich and buttery and served on amazing bread. It would be worth the trip just for this. We added glasses of cider from Blue Bee across the hall and had a wonderful little snack. Worth the trip if you are into good cheeses. Cheese boards available if you want to make a meal of it, along with a glass or two of cider. Credit cards accepted, tip jar on counter. read more

Truckle Cheesemongers catered our wedding and did an outstanding job. Since we did an early afternoon wedding we wanted to go with something not so heavy.

A wonderful presentation and super service. They made me feel like family. I felt very fortunate to discover this place by serendipity.

Let me first say that to give a fully fair review I'll have to come back in the post-COVID era and perhaps sit down for a charcuterie board. I'm a straight-up cheese lover and have been to several cheese shops but found this one to be a little lacking in terms of selection. I popped in for some cheese on a Friday afternoon and found the lobby area cluttered with boxes and what seemed to be unorganized inventory. I didn't mind waiting while a board was assembled for some seated guests because it gave me a chance to look around and admire the various merchandise, crackers, jams, etc in the small space. While the staff was nice I know one of my favorite things about cheese stores is when the people behind the counter share their favorites and tell the story about where the cheese comes from. If the selection was rare (which I think would warrant the higher prices) I didn't hear about it. I left with a bit of buttery manchego that did not disappoint so it was worth stopping in but I hope to have a fuller experience in the future. read more

Pimento cheese? Made by them? One word = ohemgee! My sister and I went and had one of each of the flights cider from next door (Blue Bee), while she paid for those I went next door and ordered us grilled cheese sandwiches. She got their signature sandwich and I got the pimento cheese one. I didn't even ask for a bite of hers (which she LOVED), nor did I offer a bite of mine. IT WAS SO DAMNED GOOD! I live in Arizona and we don't get a lot of cool stuff like pimento cheese, so when I see it on the menu I usually order it. It was the best I have ever had. Seriously - THE. BEST. My sister tried to talk me into splitting a sandwich and also getting a cheese plate - but honestly, who wants nuts and shit? I just wanted cheese. I am SO glad that I ignored her suggestion and got the pimento sammich! Before I left I bought myself a container of pimento cheese. I can use a spoon and eat it straight outta the container, right? Their neighbor is Blue Bee Cider. Perfect accompaniment for this bit of fabulousness! read more

Cheese glorious cheese. I'm kind of partial to brie and anti Goat but that's my issue. The wonderful thing is these kind and wonderful folks will allow you to sample most items (unless it's a full wheel situation) and will make suggestions based on your taste preferences. You can buy a little or a lot, it is packaged in a lovely way (presentation folks!) you can eat on site in the Blue Bue Cidery or take to go. They also have crackers, cutting implements, other accoutrement, as well as the whole Blue Bee venue right outside. But you don't have to consider it part and parcel. Just come and order some cheeses, and if you want cider, then do. If you don't, don't. There are many and they are varied. Hard, soft, funky and fun. I love that RVA can support a specialty cheese shop! please pay them a visit. read more

They were so helpful, totally kind and cool. They letbus taste cheeses and helped tailor our selection based on our tastes

Amazing experience. Maggie put together a wonderful cheese bucket for our daughter's 21st birthday. She delivered straight to her door. She was incredibly easy to work with - she asked if I had specific cheese in mind, what price point, etc. I gave her an amount I wanted to spend, and then some guidelines (she likes chevre, but not brie; likes jams with it but not cornichons) and she created an amazing gift package. I would 100% recommend Truckle Cheesemongers to anyone who loves cheese, and for anyone looking for a great gift. So much better to order a great custom gift, prepared with love and delivered fresh. I can't wait until we are in Richmond again to visit the shop! read more
