UPDATE: Important Murray’s Cheese Business Changes

To our dear guests & neighbors,

As the situation in NYC continues to escalate, we believe that it is our responsibility to our community to do what we can to limit social interactions wherever possible. We have made the difficult decision to temporarily close Murray’s Flagship Store on Bleecker Street and Murray’s Grand Central Store. This time will give our management teams a chance to reevaluate how we can more robustly equip our stores to serve the community at socially safe distances within this retail space.

Our teams are the backbone of our businesses, and it is our priority to take care of them. We are grateful to be able to provide our impacted retail teams with paid time off to support them during this closure and have encouraged them to hunker down with their families for a while.

Serving and providing food to the community and customers through this uncertain time has brought us great joy and has inspired us each day. You can still continue to access your favorite Murray’s foods.

We are still delivering:

Order Murray’s online at www.murrayscheese.com ($5 delivery within Manhattan)
Order prepared meals from our catering team by calling 212.243.3289 ext. 640 or email catering@murrayscheese.com, or visit our menu online
Stay in touch with us via social media for updates on when we open again!

We appreciate your support and look forward to serving you again soon.

Sincerely,

The Murray’s Cheese Team

Bring In the Goats: Behind the Scenes of Jasper Hill’s Latest Endeavor

When it comes to serious American cheese operations, Jasper Hill is at the top of the list. This Vermont maker has been producing award-winning original creations since 2003, when brothers Andy and Mateo Kehler sold their first artisanal cheese, eventually growing their business into the full-scale farm and cheese cellars that are now an institution of Greensboro, VT. But despite all their success, this iconic cheese powerhouse has added a little something new to their repertoire: a line of goat’s milk cheeses, created in collaboration with Bridgman Hill Farm.
