Went here once on a day date, family owned business, super friendly. They had samples and excellent knowledge about their products. We happened to have been lucky enough to come when they were making their own cheeses for the local farmers market. The cookies and cream ricotta is amazing. Definitely recommend this gem of a shop.
I give this place a 10 out of 10. Customer service was incredible!! They were welcoming and super helpful. The astetic and quality were exceptional. Such a gem here in Downtown Lodi.
What a great find in downtown Lodi! The staff was so helpful, and guided me to five cheeses that were exactly what I was looking for. I can't say enough good things about this fun establishment right in the heart of things.
Cheese Central is an absolute gem. This beautiful boutique cheese shop is thoughtfully curated and full of character, with an impressive selection of some of the best cheeses California has to offer. The staff is incredibly knowledgeable and genuinely passionate, they’re happy to guide you through pairings and make spot-on recommendations. If you’re looking to elevate a wine night or put together the perfect cheese board, this is a must-stop in Lodi. Excellent cheese, excellent quality, and an overall fantastic experience every time.
Great local, national and international selection of cheeses. Fun, funny staff. The Shaft's blue was the best I've ever had, and Cooper's Hill tastes like a baked potato. Amazing time in this shop! Go there!
