Cheese. Deli. Charcuterie.

Sharing a glass of wine, Tina and Kelly decided Paradise Pantry must have a cheese counter ripe with choices.

Come and chat with our mongers to find a cheese that is just right for you and your intended use — cooking, snacking, pairing, wowing!!! Cheeses change, evolve and develop over time. There are so many great reasons for cheese.

The Cheese Counter made room for the pairing of specialty items, including 20-40 types of cured meats, salamis & other wonderful charcuterie — olives, anchovies, locally smoked salmon — all cut and/or sliced to order. Paradise Pantry’s Cheese Counter has grown every year since 2007, becoming the ultimate cheese mecca for downtown Ventura.

And remember, at Paradise Pantry you can taste before you buy. If you are looking for a particular cheese or a taste of something new, come in for a sample!

HOW TO GET YOUR CHEESES

Platters Aplenty. Just like Goldilocks, we have standard small, medium and large platters. And we love to create custom platters too. Contact us for details.

Place your order for slices, chunks and hunks of all your faves. Need a suggestion, we’ve got that too.


Featured Cheese Selections.

Stop in for a Cheese Plate in our restaurant - each week we have new featured hunks. We urge you to try them on a Cheese Plate and shop at our Cheese Counter after to enjoy more at home!
