Visit One Of The Best Cheeseshops In Southern Maine For A Day Of Delicious Fun

There’s nothing better than digging into a great block of cheese. Unless it’s digging into some creamy, soft cheese. And the only thing better than both of those things is being served cheese while you sip wine, eat crackers and generally enjoy the company of your friends and family. The only thing better than that? Getting to have all that wine, all those crackers and the cheese in peace and quiet on your own. Regardless of how (and with whom!) you like to enjoy your downtime, head to this cheese shop in Maine to get ready. It’s said to be the best in southern Maine and we’re not here to argue!

The Cheese Shop in Scarborough has a name that would indicate that cheese is their specialty. And, that's true. But they're so much more than that.

First and foremost, they *are* a cheese shop. The European style shop carries more than 200 domestic and international cheeses.

They even have their own on-site cheese caves that allow for maturation. Visitors can actually watch the process over time, which is something truly unique to this spot.

No matter what kind of cheese you need, there's a good chance you'll find it here.

And if you're not entirely sure what they want, the folks who work here are experts and can point you in the right direction.

But this place is more than just cheese. They also offer a variety of sandwiches and baked goods, made each and every day.

Plus they have a full charcuterie department complete with cured meats, deli meats and fresh local meats.

Of course you'll need wine to go with the food, which is another thing we love about The Cheese Shop. They've got an extensive wine collection.

If you're entertaining, they can whip up perfectly beautiful plates for your guests.

If you're not the one entertaining and will be arriving as a guest, they make some wonderful gift arrangements. And they sell gift certificates.

There's so much to see here, it's almost worth a visit just to browse. But, we have a feeling you won't be leaving empty handed!

The Cheese Iron Monday through Saturday from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. You can check them out by visiting their website or following them on Facebook. And, you can reach them on 207-883-4057. Address: 200 US-1 ALT #300, Scarborough, ME 04074.
