Rob Kaufelt grew up in a grocery family – his grandfather had a shop in Perth Amboy, New Jersey, where he’d hang out and hear Grandpa use his motto “Go on, take a taste” with every customer. He was standing in line one day at Murray’s, when he heard then-owner Louis Tudda say that he was closing the shop. Rob made him an offer, becoming the third owner of New York's most beloved cheese shop. Murray's Cheese is now a world-renowned specialty food destination offering the finest selection of cheese, meat, and groceries. If you have the time and want one of our expert cheesemongers to lead you through your cheese and cured meat selections, take a number and we'll give you all the attention you have time for -- plus plenty of tastes.
