From a Side Window to Village Gate Square
The Grilled Cheese Factory ROC opened in Greece, NY right before a pandemic — and never closed. Since 2020, we've been Rochester's go-to spot for epic, golden, melty creations, still family-made every day.
The Grilled Cheese Factory Roc | Our Story
The Side Window
We are a family owned and operated business that has been serving up cheesiness in the Rochester area since 2020. We first opened our doors at our Dewey & Stone Road location a month prior to the start of the global pandemic. We continued to work throughout the pandemic operating out of a side window to provide unique grilled cheese creations to our friends and community during those unforeseen times. We quickly gained so many awesome customers and had cars lined down the road waiting for their cheesy goodness. This was the start of our beloved business creating specialty grilled cheeses and so much more. We along with our dedicated staff endured the hardships of the pandemic and persevered through with the help of our amazing customers.
Growing a Real Following
Eventually we made our way over to our next location at Marketplace Mall. We had the privilege to meet many new faces and created great relationships with our fellow business owners. We became a fan favorite and continued to serve up Henrietta with our quirky combinations. We were touched to see so many of our awesome Greece customers had followed us and utilized online ordering to continue to support our business
