At the heart of every big city or small town in New York is something that the area is known for; something that gives the destination its own character and reputation. If you head down to the town of Cuba, it’s cheese. Located in Allegany County, just over an hour outside of Buffalo, the tiny town of Cuba has a long history with producing and selling great-tasting New York cheeses that people drive from all over to taste. If you happen to be as big of a cheese fanatic as we are, then it won’t be hard for you to see why this epic cheese shop is more than worth the drive to get to.
The large, red building you see sitting on the corner in town today was originally the very first cheese company and shop in the town of Cuba. Its history dates back to 1871, when it was known as the Ackerly Sill & Co., but the building is now home to the Cuba Cheese Shop.
The shop's gourmet food selection is wonderfully impressive, but it's the massive assortment of cheeses that will knock any cheese lover off of their feet.
The shop's main goal has always been to promote the fantastic cheeses crafted here right in New York State, especially those from smaller local and regional cheesemakers.
Between the large Cuba Cheese slogans and countryside murals painted on the outside of the building, there's no way you'll be able to miss the Cuba Cheese Shop while you're driving through town - so stop on by the next time you're craving a cheesy delight.
You’ll find the Cuba Cheese Shop located at 53 Genesee St., Cuba, NY 14727 and can visit any day of the week between 8:30 a.m. and 5 p.m. to see all that they feature. To find out more about this tasty destination, visit the Cuba Cheese Shop’s website here
