One of my favorite places in Surf City. If you live cheese and like to try NEW cheeses, stop in here. Every year we stay in Surf city and every year I stop in at The Cheese Shoppe to taste some cheese and to buy some for the week. The staff here all seem to pretty well trained and they know their cheeses. It's also helps that they are always friendly and looking to help. The place is pretty open and well-laid out. There's also more than just cheese here so if you're looking to have a few charcuterie boards during your stay then you can get everything you need right here. This year's big find for me was a couple of amazing Bellavitano cheeses with different outside coatings...everyone loved them. Already looking forward to what I'll find next summer.

I just had a great experience at this little gem on LBI, in Surf City. Nathan was extremely helpful and the selection in the store for cheese and accoutrements was to be admired. I highly recommend this establishment on and off season!

NOT A GOOD EXPERIENCE Purchased 3 containers of cheese spread . When I questioned the owners as to why NOTHING in the store was priced , he claimed that they were short staffed but would happy tell me the prices if I brought the items up to the counter …. Fine , how much are the spreadable cheeses ? Between 6.50 and 9 dollars … went on to indicate the all the containers are now sealed , but still the same cheese spreads that they have always been .. fine made my purchase, came home to 2 of the containers were not sealed and very noticeable that the product had been used … but yet put back in the fridge for sale ! The name is the same but not the quality or service of previous owners . I had been a loyal customer since the cheese shop was in Beach Haven . UNACCEPTABLE !

The place looks good after the renovation, but a massive fail on the owners part to not have prices on anything. Not at all. Not hidden, not missing on an item here or there, it was a choice not to have them on any items in store. If prices are subject to change even little chalkboard labels in front of each item would be an easy fix. Either way, to combat this, one employee was super kind and helped me go around the store and find out how much certain items were and give me some great recommendations. I didn't catch her name but she is a blessing! All employees there were super nice. But I'm sure you can't rely on that when it gets busy. Cheese was fantastic and i got a great assortment. Great staff. Good selection. Hey owner- add some freakin prices.

My family has been vacationing on this island for over 60 years and the Cheese Shoppe had always been a "must". This year we were a little shocked to see the changes. It seems very commercial now and they were out of some favorites. We were surprised to learn that their cheese spreads weren't made in house (we always thought they were). Whether perceived or actual, we tasted the difference.

This place used to be great. New ownership changed things around and did continue with the tried and true ways of the old owners. The cheese spreads taste different (not as good), the way they have things setup is ridiculous, it's more of a gift shop than a cheese shop. What really stinks is nobody knows anything about cheese. Wish they didn't change things up, but I wish them the best.

It looks to have a great selection of cheeses, crackers, jelly's. Pastas and sauces... but they do not put prices on anything. A barcode needs to be scanned at check out counter. Why aren't the prices posted???

New owners, beautiful re-do of interior, great fun foods, stuff for purchase for cheese board gifts.New team needs to find a more efficient way to help customers quickly, as beach visitors aren't gonna wait a long time to be helped and checked out.

One of my favorite local store for cheese and Vanleeuwan icecream. They have other local handcrafts too. People are very good and friendly. We mostly get our cheese from here!
