"Murray’s Cheese is a cheese shop in New York City that Stanley Tucci cites as one of his favorite cheese shops in the world." - Cat Sposato

"The go-to place for all things cheese, Murray’s excels in their passion, knowledge and offering of the best local and international cheese. Many of the cheeses are stocked according to season, so you’ll likely be able to try new types upon every visit. Don’t be intimidated by the sheer number of choices, the lovely folks behind the counter are always happy to help. You’ll have a blast tasting and learning along the way. The store also includes a grilled cheese bar, charcuterie, fresh pastas and specialty food products, it’s hard to leave empty handed." - Superficial Studio

"Greensward, which is made in partnership by Jasper Hill Farm and New York City’s Murray’s Cheese and washed in hard cider as it ages." - Bettina Makalintal

"Maybe you want to discuss how different types of caves impact how a cheese ages, or perhaps you just want to know why Swiss cheese has holes. Either way, Murray’s has you covered. Make a reservation for a one-on-one shopping experience at their Greenwich Village location, and a cheesemonger will personally make sure you find what you’re looking for." - hannah albertine, nikko duren

"Murray’s cheese shop, which has been open since 1940, is a Village institution and is now in every guide book and food tour. So when they opened their cheese-focused restaurant a few doors down in 2012, locals were excited. It quickly became a neighborhood favorite for its cheese-focused food and carefully curated craft beer and wine list. They change their menu often, but some favorites—like buffalo cheese curds and a killer macaroni and cheese—persist. They also have themed cheese flights (like Farm to Slate and Spanish Summer) for the table to share, and knowledgeable cheesemongers on hand to help make your selections."
