Our Story
Following our philosophy of hand-crafted quality, we source most of our goods from local artisans who use historic methods to produce in small batches.
Owner, Jenny Ball, and her self proclaimed group of “Cheese Nerds” enjoy working directly with cheese-makers to ensure the source and quality exceeds their customers' needs and expectations!
Our Mission
Our mission at the Dover Cheese Shop is simple:
Provide Port Dover with a fun and comfortable neighbourhood cheese shop that provides quality cheese and exceptional customer service!
The Big Cheese
Meet the one and only, THE BIG CHEESE (Jenny!)
Starting up The Dover Cheese Shop in 2013, Jenny is obsessed with all things cheese (surprising we know!).
She loves the Carolina Panthers hates, hates, hates pickles with a passion, and is known for her contagious laugh.
Oh! And if you're ever looking to get on her good side, just treat her to her favourite food - sushi, of course!
If Jenny were a cheese, she would have to be Mango-Ginger -- "because I'm sweet and bubbly with a zing of ginger spice!"
Curd Nerd Extraordinaire
A horror movie enthusiast and all around cheese lover - meet Stacy!
A familiar face in the shop, Stacy is curd nerd certified and has been part of our cheese family for 10 years!
When it comes to food, Stacy's fave is.... seafood of any kind!
Tough as nails and (sometimes) salty, she would be an aged cheddar. Which if we're being honest is a staple for anyone to have, especially us!
Cheeseboard Master
Say hello to Shelby! Our cheeseboard master, giggle queen and the perfect mix of sweet + sassy.
Her favourite food is Dim Sum (yum!) and you can find her cheering for the Washington Capitals.
You might not know this but…Shelby likes to paint in the woods. An artist on the cheese boards and the canvas.
Better beeeelieve that her smile lights up the shop!
We asked her, "If you were a cheese, what kind would you be?" Her response? "Honey Bee - save the bees!"
Our Newest CURD Nerd
Say hello to Maddy! Our newest curd nurd, Maddy joined our team for the summer while she's on summer break from York University.
Maddy is crafty and loves to sew and make her own clothes. When she's not working one of her two jobs, Maddy loves thrifting.
While she's still exploring the world of cheese, so far, her absolute favourite is Pear and Apple Wensleydale
