Locals Night is coming to the Washington Street Mall this Friday, May 29th from 5pm to 7pm, and it’s the perfect time to enjoy an evening in the heart of Cape May.

Stop into The Cheese Shop to explore our selection of specialty cheeses, gourmet pairings, and seasonal favorites—perfect for summer entertaining or a treat just for you.
