Crema's Take

While Artisan Cheese Company serves exceptional coffee alongside their curated selection of artisanal cheeses and charcuterie, it's really a destination for food lovers seeking that rare combination of expertise and hospitality. The communal seating and knowledgeable staff create an inviting atmosphere perfect for lingering over a specialty drink and one of their celebrated scones, while discovering obscure cheeses and gourmet pantry items you won't find anywhere else in Sarasota. This is the kind of place where a casual visit becomes a memorable experience, whether you're pairing wines with cheese or simply enjoying a perfectly crafted coffee in a space that feels both refined and genuinely warm.

I had the pleasure of having lunch at the Artisan Cheese Co for the first time last week and it was exquisite. It is a quaint little shop with communal type seating. There was a lovely bunch of women who me and my girlfriend sat with. I had the open faced grilly that was beyond delicious! The flavors and ingredients are mixed together so thoughtfully and they make your tastebuds dance. I also had the butternut squash soup which was just what I needed on that rare cold day in Florida. We also got chocolate chip cookies to go that rival any cookie you've had before. As we were eating, fresh loaves of bread were coming from the kitchen to be placed in the window for sale and the smell is unforgettable!! They have lots of different cheeses, crackers, spreads and deserts to choose from. It is a little on the pricey side, but that's to be expected at this level of quality. I will definitely be back!

I learned about this place on TikTok and am so glad I did! The staff was super friendly and helpful. They brought us some free samples in addition to our mid day snack, will never say no to free cheese. If you're in the area, definitely check it out. Next time, I plan to bring a cooler to bring some cheese home to tampa

Exquisite pantry options, “can’t find” cheeses, freshly baked bread, so many unique items for the foodies. Make sure to stop in for the delicious tacos (and grilled cheeses) and obviously stunning cheese boards. A local gem 💎
