Every time we find something new we didn’t know we liked before we tried it. They are family owned and run and we really appreciate that we don’t feel rushed. Our 20 MO also loves it as much as we do already

This is my daughter and I's go to daddy date place. She loves trying the new cheeses and the staff is always happy to give samples. We are respectful about how many we try based on how much we are going to purchase. Don't just sample and run. Support local business.

We had a team builder event with our Executive Team at Cheese Central and we had an amazing time. The owner is a fantastic hostess. We cooked and then ate everything we made. What a great time. My team is still talking about the fantastic time we had and wanting to do it again soon. Thank you for a great time. By the way, the price was great considering that we had an interactive class and then had dinner. I highly recommend Cheese Central for your team building activity or simply going to sample some amazing goodies.

Visiting from out of state and our good friend showed us around this adorable part of downtown Lodi. What a cute area filled with little treasures, including this shop. I'm a huge fan of cheese, so I knew I'd be checking out this store. I loved sampling all the unique cheeses that you don't normally find in your local grocery store. Since this neighborhood is very much involved with wine, it's probably why this cheese shop exists. But you don't need to be a wine consumer to enjoy this place. Just a fan of cheese. I took home quite a few little cheesy treasures. It's was fun bringing back home and sharing with the family. This place offers much more than cheese. Oh and it's air conditioned. A lovely escape from the torturous heat of the day. Check it out and everything this shopping area has to offer.
