The Rhined is a specialty cut-to-order cheese and wine shop located in the Over-the-Rhine neighborhood of Cincinnati. It focuses on domestic, small batch cheese and offers many regional selections, putting only cheeses the staff absolutely love in the case. The same philosophy applies to its wine offerings, which highlight small producers and handmade wines. Guests can take cheese and wine home or enjoy them in the intimate, tiny shop at the counter, on the sidewalk, in the cozy back patio, or in the courtyard. Options include cheese flights, a glass of wine, excellent sandwiches, and fancy non-alcoholic drinks. The staff is lovely, helpful, chill, knowledgeable, and welcoming, providing excellent service. The shop also sells other great provisions like charcuterie, tinned seafood, jams, pickled veggies, spreads, and chocolates. For events like weddings, The Rhined creates stunning, delicious charcuterie boards with flawless presentation, handling everything with professionalism and enthusiasm. The cheese itself is delish and out of this world, making a visit to the shop a true treat.
This place has some of the best sandwiches in the city. My spouse and I have gotten carry out a few times and she loves the Turkey and Brie and I really like the Turkey Club. Great selection of cheeses as well. Exceptional place right by Findlay Market.

Very good cheese shop. While the selection is a bit limited, they carry excellent, quality cheeses. Their salami selection is good, also. I discovered the excellent Dodge City Salami there, and will be returning.

Wanted a sandwich at the Findlay Market, but noticed this place across the street. Got the Chopper and it didn’t disappoint! Highly recommend!
