We are a small, family owned and operated cheese and charcuterie shop. Located in the historic Reading Terminal Market and open 7 days a week, Downtown Cheese offers gourmet cheeses, cured meats, a selection of mustards, olives, olive oils & vinegars. If you are interested in trays for parties, client meetings. open houses or any event we offer many options and can provide customized orders also. *We do ask that you give a minimum of 24hrs. advanced notice for trays*
Staff are knowledgeable and friendly, helped me get a great selection for a dinner party.

Stopped by as the market was closing, hoping to get a few cheeses to take home. We asked Brian to surprise us and he did a fantastic job! Not only did he recommend great selections for us, but he was incredibly friendly. 10/10 experience and I can’t wait to stop by and see what else he recommends we try next!

Downtown Cheese may have the best selection of cheese in the city or at lease second to none. This thought hit me on a recent stop. If they don't have exactly what you might want or if your not sure the are there to help to find a close alternative or help pinpoint what you may like.
