The Village Gourmet Cheese Shop

I've had a few sandwiched from here and they have all been soooo yummy!! They have a lot of sandwich options that makes it hard to decide so I've tried a couple different ones :) I'd recommend ordering online and collecting just to speed the process but if you go in summer they have some great outdoor seating!!

As a weekly patron - The food is good and lots of new variety since the new owner Nikki purchased this establishment. Sal and Victoria I would never have eaten here again if it wasn't for your kindness not to mention new the ownership. There needs adjustments on how long the orders take and the few constant errors in food allergies detail. Big Check! Had several orders gone bad even recent but was too late. If you are careful what you order and make sure you check the allergy list you should be just happy with their creative selection. Wait time depends on how many is before you and whose in the kitchen. Small grab and go atmosphere with huge revenue overflow. Sal and his wife are hard workers and do their best in spite of the aggressive crowds. I will give the owner some time to make the necessary adjustments from the previous. So far she's doing a splendid job with the renovations and added perks for repeat customers such as myself.

I always stop here for lunch but order strictly online . I check the wait time or estimated pickup and it’s typically spot on if not a few minutes before. I’ve only had one issue here. They didn’t confirm my order about 45 mins later I called in. My order was accidentally missed. The girl said they were really busy. They were able to prepare my order fairly quickly and called me back when it was ready. The town does get really busy in the summer. I’ve seen more staff working here lately which is good hopeful the wait times improve.

We stopped here for lunch today. We had two delicious sandwiches, a Roma and a London. The panini were great and reasonably priced. We shared a bag of kettle chips too. Beware the lobster roll, $30 each and Served w/o fries.... Note, it takes a bit little while to get your food, don't come here if you are in a hurry.

Europe comes to Main Street! Whenever I walk in the front door, I feel like I have stepped off into a Parisian shop. Small bistro tables both out front and just inside the door add to this thought. As you progress through the crowd toward the rear, you will walk between a wall of crackers, chips, biscuits, candy, popcorn, jams, spreads on one side while browsing by the finest selection of cheeses on the other. Whether you prefer goat or cow milk-based cheeses, they have a substantial variety to make your selections. They also have a salad counter to order a salad for lunch or dinner. There is a case with German sausages, prepared meats, and unique items. In the rear of the store is a large chalkboard listing the extensive selection of sandwiches, wraps and panini's to choose. I am a "New Yorker" so I enjoy my pastrami on toasted rye with swiss cheese and coleslaw. They serve Hale and Hearty Soups daily as well as baked goods and coffees. They have several beverage cases to choose from soda to juices to ready to drink teas. A visit here and then either retreat to the rear grounds and take a seat by the beautiful fountain tucked inside the garden or stroll down to Agawam Lake and enjoy the moment, enjoy the day! Now you can't get more European than that except maybe bring your wine.
