Updated: East Village Cheese opens Friday


[Photo yesterday by Derek Berg]

That's the word from workers here at 80 E. Seventh St. between First Avenue and Second Avenue… where the East Village Cheese Shop relocated from Third Avenue earlier last month.

While the space had been under renovation in recent weeks, we hadn't heard about an opening date just yet.

The shop's lease at 40 Third Ave. between East Ninth Street and East 10th Street was up at the end of July, with its former neighbor Duane Reade eventually expected to expand into the adjacent storefronts.

Updated 9/25

Word is now Tuesday, Sept. 29 for the opening…

Great News! There aren't too many places left that sell good, fresh bread in the EV anymore at reasonable prices - "reasonable" is not a word associates with retail in the EV anymore.
