While the notion of a specialty cheese shop is nothing new, not many people — even those who follow plant-based diets, or
who seek out lactose-free dairy products on the regular — can claim to have ever visited a 100-percent vegan artisanal
cheese shop before. However, with dairy-free alternatives skyrocketing in popularity, not only are there more delectable
vegan cheeses on the market than ever but now there are actual, brick and mortar plant-based cheese shops that exist
that specialize in vegan cheeses galore.
Even though there are numerous companies that offer vegan cheeses, we decided we wanted to spotlight the few that you
can actually visit in person. Hopefully, several years from now there will be an abundance of shops just like the ones
we spotlighted below!
From soft and spreadable cream “cheeses” to hard, sliceable blocks of “cheese” that would make any dairy-lover swoon,
these artisan vegan cheese shops have it all. Let us know if you’ve ever visited one of these shops before, and if you
have a favorite one we didn’t feature this time around!
