  Very cute in here! They have a bunch of options and the staff is very knowledgeable and full of good recommendations. I can't speak to the quality of the cheese-- I got these for a gift basket-- but I will say that everything looked spectacular!

  Nice selection of cheese and friendly staff. I went in last week for my first visit. Not knowing what to order, I asked the opinions from the staff. They gave helpful tips as well as a brief intro to various types of cheese. I was told their Prairie Breeze was best to go for the Grilled Cheese sandwich. I ended up buying the small samples (in the refrigerator) of four types of cheese. I asked them for ways to eat those cheese when I paid for them, and it turned out great. I will be back and try their Brie and Prairie Breeze the next time. The ones I bought as of now: Beemster 18 month. It is a cheddar cheese that has some savory start, but smooth, milky and a tinny little bit of sweetness at the end when pairing with bread. Schlossberger Alt: a denser cheese. It does have much sweetness or milky flavour, rather it is of a dense and complex yet smooth savory taste towards it. I paired it with Trader Joe's 3 seeds sweet potato crackers for a balance. Wild Alpine and Essex Menchego. Haven't tried but was told they are also good with crackers and bread. Will update later once I try them.

  This delightful, small cheese shop has a great vibe and an excellent selection of both domestic and foreign cheeses. Helpful staff will point you in the right direction. They also carry good pasta, jams, ice cream and other goodies. Stop in, you will be glad you did.

  This is the most perfect little cheese shop. Not only do they have an incredibly vast and unique selection of high-quality cheeses, all their other products are thoughtfully curated. They do their best to source local, artisanal products like jams, cured meats, cocktail bitters, candles, etc. Also, they have a wonderfully helpful staff that always takes the time to help you select the best products for your needs (and let you try before you buy!). The two young gentlemen who are usually working there offer truly exceptional customer service.

  Fantastic cheese shop. However, the owners should reconfigure the store pivot the cheese counter so that it faces the front window and shrink the amount of shopping area down to about 150 ft.² inside of the store. Requires the customers to go to deep into a narrow space in order to really sample their main product. Tightening up the front just play keeping it cozy and hopefully making it seem a little more full of customers and I think their business would increase by 30%. Just three of us you can take it or leave it wish you guys the best
