�Dairy and Deli � is fine, although a queseria is a dairy which specializes in cheese. There �s a famous cheese shop in Glasgow called Mellis located not far from a large school. Naturally, the kids call it Smelly �s. |

Almaz is right, a queseria is specialised in cheeses. There is another word that I �ve started to encounter more and more here in British shops is - charcuterie which comes from French or Spanish - charcuteria, which is really what a deli is. By the way, most delis (at least in Canada) sell cheese.
