Great cheese at amazing prices and great cheese sandwiches! A good selection of their own and other cheeses from around the area. A good one stop shopping spot! read more

We've stopped here many times over the years for our cheese fix (some of the best curds). This time was hands down the busiest. The store is on the smaller side and there was a crowd of people ordering cheese and grilled cheese sandwiches on a Friday. Have a plan - don't decide at the front of the line, please. We got our grilled cheese after about 20 minutes. It was good but definitely wasn't on sourdough like stated on the menu. The special sauce was like an aioli - good on the side but happy I didn't get it on there as-is. Tried the mouseketeer (3 cheese) and it was good. We went back in after to pick up our cheese curds and waited in line again for at least another 15 minutes. All in all, great stop if you're in the area. Just be prepared to wait as they're a small operation and can only do so much at one time. read more

More and more people are starting to shop here, occasionally there are lines but move fast. Large selection of nice, squeaky curds, many flavors. Bring cash, they accept charge but add a small fee. read more

Best place for cheese you can ask for! I have grown up on this cheese, and after all this time have never found anything that compares. Now I have to ship the product, but don't let that stop you. They package their product in the best packaging I have seen. And always shows up at my door as expected. Thank you Decatur dairy for always being unchanging in this crazy world we live in. read more

Large selection of of wonderful cheeses and curds at reasonable prices. I have been shopping at Decatur Dairy for over 40 years. Now that I'm in my 70's, I don't get there as often as I used to. ‍ read more

We get cheese gift boxes and cheese for our Christmas every year. We ordered our gift boxes online and picked up along with cheese curds and a variety of other cheeses on our way to FL for the Christmas holidays. The cheese boxes are only $15. We purchase sausage from another business and add them to the cheese boxes. The cheese here is so fresh and creamy. It is the reason we drive out of our way to come here. And we have a nice variety to charge on our cheese and sausage platter over the holidays. The clerks are knowledgeable and friendly. We have been coming here for years when it use to be a small counter and register in the barn and they had a dog to greet everyone. It has grown over the years, the dog is gone and the store is nice size which also includes a public restroom. read more

Decatur Dairy - a man standing in front of a display of cheese - Cheese Shops Near Me - Brodhead, Wisconsin

There is nothing like fresh made cheese! We have been stopping at Decatur Dairy for years. It's a must stop whenever we are in Wisconsin to visit family. The array of cheeses is amazing. And the staff is always so helpful and patient as we try to make up our minds. Be sure to grab several bags of fresh cheese curds! Don't leave without getting a grilled cheese sandwich, you will not be disappointed. It is a grilled cheese unlike any you have ever had. And finally, be sure to check out the dairy fresh ice cream! Very busy on the weekends, especially during football season, so plan in getting there early. Grilled cheese sandwiches are great for breakfast too! read more

The cheese was ridiculously low priced when I went there which is now 2 years ago but am going back in a week for the Packers game. I had a cheese tray sent to my relatives in PA for Christmas. They loved the cheddar. The dairy has a trademarked recipe called Stettler Swiss. I loved it. It's more like a baby Swiss. I also had the Ukrainian cheese. Not crazy about that one. The grilled cheese was disappointing though. A dearth of cheese. read more

The employees were very friendly and helpful with my questions. I had the three mouseketeer grilled cheese with the special sauce. It tasted fantastic and the cheese pull was great! Lol Thank you so much! read more

It's a lot of driving for so so cheese sandwiches. I was expecting a L O T more cheese in their grilled sandwiches. The staff was very nice, and helpful, but the food was not worth the time, the money or the drive. A few fly paper strips would go a long way in the eating areas. FYI Aged cheese often has a gritty texture. read more

Cheese selection is awesome. Customer service top notch and there is the grilled cheese you have to get one OMG

I've already reviewed Decatur Dairy before, but I love this place as always!!! Service is good, there's always people here, & the food is always immaculate! read more

Decatur Dairy - Grilled cheese menu - Cheese Shops Near Me - Brodhead, Wisconsin

It was a beautiful day for a ride in the country so we headed out to Decatur Dairy. We ordered a 3 mouseketeers grilled cheese sandwich with special sauce and it was very good! They serve Chocolate shop ice cream which is good but we thought maybe they would make their own but they don't. There's a nice shaded picnic area with tables to sit and eat. We bought some cheese and cheese curds to take home. There's a bathroom for use. The staff was very welcoming and friendly. If you pay by credit card they add a surcharge of 3.5% to your bill. It's a great stop while taking a country drive. read more

Every time I have visited Decatur Dairy, I've left with a few pounds of cheese. There's nothing like Wisconsin lactose! Like so many others, when you arrive to this creamery, you pull up to a building that looks like a farm with a small plant in front. They're a handful of parking spots, and apart from modest signage, you wouldn't know you were pulling up to top-notch, third-generation creamery owned by an award-winning, Master Cheesemaker. On my does it yesterday, I was the only one in the shop until another customer walked in. Typically, there can be as many as a half a dozen or more customers in the tiny space. There's nowhere to sit and eat, but if you taste test enough different cheeses, ans maube some regionally-made sausage, you won't leave hungry. The ladies behind the counter are always very friendly and Incredibly helpful. Just as important, they're also very knowledgeable, even Kyli, the youngest of the team who helped me yesterday. I had plenty of tastes, she gave plenty of good recommendations and I left with plenty of cheese. Again, like other Wisconsin creameries, Decatur sticks to regional specialties from brick and bitterkase, cheddar to farmer, gouda to havarti, Muenster to Swiss, and, in my opinion, the awful blue cheese and Limburger varieties. The Stettler family offers variations on all of these categories. Decatur, of course, has a slew of different curd choices. On this visit, I immediately went for a Muenster and was in search of something special. I was offered smoked, pepper, and a few others, and was thrilled with a slightly-aged muenster cheese which I had never seen before elsewhere. I also took home a half pound of Ukrainian cheese, something unique. The last two winners on my visit were the Stettler Swiss family specialty and an eight-year-old cheddar which was just shy of being crumbly and just at the edge of beginning to gain some crystalline texture. The prices are so outstanding I feel like a FIB pirate taking Cheesehead booty! Decatur Dairy sells mostly their own cheeses, but they do sell some from other creameries around Wisconsin and a few from out of state. It doesn't make any sense to me to buy anything but what they produce in house. They also have a half-dozen ice creams from another Creamery, and those are worth tasting and enjoyable to take a scoop out into the parking lot. They are so fresh and flavorful, noticeably better than anything you'll buy in the big box grocery freezer. read more

Our "go to" for an amazing variety of beautifully crafted cheeses. In the mood for a hand made grilled cheese, oh my! The Three Mouseketeer is succulent. This cannot be duplicated in your home kitchen. And don't skip the special sauce, it's lip licking love for the taste buds. You can eat inside or out. Staff is friendly, home grown service with a smile. Cute little store right in the middle of Cow country. Did I mention the made fresh daily Curds. They are a Wisconsinites constant companion. read more

If you find yourself on a road trip seeking awesome cheese and scenery in southern Wisconsin, you won't find a better destination than Decatur Dairy. They have a full menu of amazing grilled cheese sandwich creations as well as yummy ice cream and plenty of outdoor seating. Their curds are beyond amazing and with so many varieties! Serious squeak appeal! I only wish they would offer a sample plate to be able to experience all of the curd goodness. Oh, did I mention they have an amazing selection of bulk cheese too, including several award winners? Go... there...now! read more

There's a great selection of cheeses and sausage here. We're not from Wisconsin but we sure are Cheeseheads. Since we no longer live close to the dairy, we can also get our cheese fix via mail. While all their cheese is excellent, we're especially fond of their Stetler Swiss. read more

This dairy has it all: delicious, reasonably priced cheeses, ice cream, and grilled cheese sandwiches. It's the Incredible Edible Wisconsin Tri-Fecta! Sure, it's in nowhere-land, but make it a fun destination excursion, with cheese as your Golden Prize. You won't be sorry (just check on their hours, first). I tried the Yellow Brick Road grilled cheese on sourdough bread. The factory-made Buttercase cheese was soooo good! Creamy, meltey, gooey goodness. They'll make grilled cheese sandwiches during all open hours, so go ahead and have one at 8:00 a.m. if you want! Top it off with some Babcock Ice Cream direct from UW Madison and you'll be one happy cheese hunter. read more

Decatur Dairy - Order a grilled cheese and it comes with some local (Freeport, IL) potato chips! - Cheese Shops Near Me - Brodhead, Wisconsin

Cheeses were fresh and delicious. Prices are reasonable. Highly recommend this place. Location was out of the way but worth the trip

We saw this place on Wisconsin Foodie in the middle of winter and decided when the weather got better, we'd take a road trip and check it out. Well worth the drive through scenic south central Wisconsin. The store features award winning cheeses. You can order a grilled cheese sandwich, chips and a soda for 6 bucks. Absolutely delicious. We bought 5 pounds of cheese, spreads and curds to enjoy in the next few weeks (days). read more

I stopped here again on one of my recent trips up to Wisconsin. The cheese curds were delicious and I brought some of their havarti and ghost pepper cheddar back for some of my friends. They all loved it, so I decided I'd stop by again and pick up more cheese. One thing I didn't do last time that I made sure to do this time was try their sandwiches. I think this one was a special so wasn't on their normal menu but it was a spicy smoked cheese on their sourdough bread. This was one of the better grilled cheeses I've had in a long time! read more

Literally the best cheese in the WORLD! This place is what dreams are made of. Fantastic prices. Super friendly and helpful staff. We bought several pounds of cheeses, curds, spreads, butter and beef sticks. The products freeze well. We will definitely be back! read more

Really cool deli attached to a diary. High quality food! Definitely recommended for a quick bite to eat. More cheese than you can shake a stick at! for read more

This place always slaps! The 3 mousekateers sandwich is my favorite! Everyone working there is so nice and respectful. And the inside is very small, kind of wish it were a bigger seating area with only two round tables and three chairs. The chips are amazing, wish they sold them at the Pig! read more

I love cheese, so unsurprisingly I love Decatur Dairy! Lots of varieties of cheese curd samples greet you when you come in. We all sampled loads before having a look around the shop. It's small but there's plenty there. My only criticism is that the cooler with the pre-cut cheese and the spreads etc is behind a counter, so you can't paw through everything. But that's a small grumble. I like that the cheese is mostly available to be cut for you. I was able to sample a nice havarti too. They also sell really, really good grilled cheese sandwiches for £3. I had one with butterkase and it was really the best grilled cheese I've ever had. My other purchase was a bag of olive cheese curds - so savoury and salty and delicious. There was also ice cream, but I was cheesed out. Definitely on my list of places to go every year when I visit Wisconsin! read more

Awesome cheese store. A bit off the beaten path, but more than worth the drive. Great quality and variety of cheese and curds. If you don't want to pay the price of the tourist trap cheese dealers and are will to go the extra mile, check out this mom and pop dairy farm! read more

It's an okay place to go when it's not busy the staff are nice. But when it's busy it's a circus. You can easily wait 30+ minutes for a grilled cheese. If you don' mind standing with wall to wall people for 30+ minutes this is the place for you! read more

This place is surely worth a visit. I came here with family when I was visiting Wisconsin. Nothing like a Wisconsin cheese curd! And they had sooooo many flavors! Garlic, Jalapeño, Ranch, BBQ, etc. etc. We also all got a scoop of their ice cream which is equally delicious. Too bad we had all just ate because the grilled cheese sandwich sounded amazing. Next time! :) read more

The place is in the middle of NOWHERE, but man it is busy in a Saturday. Maddie and I stopped for our favorite cheese and ended up getting a grilled cheese which was very good... make the drive at least once, then order on line and ship anywhere even right to your door... read more

I have lived in Green County for over 10 years and I only recently discovered the Decatur Dairy through a radio ad. I had to buy a gift for my friend who is from Europe and has an intense appreciation of cheese. I purchased several flavors of their world championship Havarti and the Muenster. We are now both converts to the dairy. I just want to say THIS IS THE BEST CHEESE I HAVE EVER HAD!!! The shop is small and the dairy is tucked away in a beautiful country landscape. The drive is gorgeous, but the cheese is better. If you love cheese, this is a must stop. And if you find you love it as much as me, but the location is not convenient, then go ahead and use their easy online order and delivery, you will not be disappointed, I promise. Just a footnote, me and my friend went through our first three pounds in a weekend and I had to make a second trip back within four days. I would never have thought I would be Yelping about cheese, but this place is too good to keep secret. Oh, and like the other reviews mention, the pricing is extremely reasonable, almost to the point of being unbelievable for such a high quality product, but I guess this is the benefit of buying directly from the source. Please join me to support my local economy and local dairy producers. read more

Very good selection of cheese made in house. We purchased some brick cheese, great price at $4.00 a pound. Really impressive watching the cheese be cut. My only wish for this adorable little cheese shop would be an improvement in customer service. I won't go into drawn out details, however due to the sub par service I would not go out of my way to visit again. read more

I am very dissapointed in their customer service. I purchased cheese in a store that then sent my order via email to Decautr dairy. I purchased on the 4th of August. I was told it was a five day ship time. I did not recieve it until day 7. They attempted to deliver on the 6th day, but our business is closed on friday's. When the box was delivered, I could smell the cheese before I opened it. My cheese curds were all melted together. I called the company and was told there wasn't anything they could do about it. I spoke to Andrea, and she said I could just put the cheese in the refrigerator and it should be ok to eat. I would never have cheese shipped through this company again. read more

What can I say except for "WOW!!!!" Went to this place while visiting some friends and was just blown away. The customer service here was fantastic. Everyone in the shop was so nice!!! When we asked for a sample and what the employee's favorite cheese was, we ended up getting five or six samples. We even got to meet the master cheese maker. We tried three different grilled cheese sandwiches which were perfectly cheesy! We also tried the Mac and cheese which was also so delicious! We left with two pounds of cheese each, some cheese curds, and some summer sausage. I have named this place the Cheeseary! Hopefully that name sticks! When I come back to Beloit I will stop here again! From San Diego read more

Tarnation but this here is a fabulous cheesy shoppe! From smooth, melt-in-your-mouth and fire-fire-on-your-tongue Horseradish Havarti to mild onion and garlic infused Brick. It is really all incredibly good and economical too. You can buy fresh cream and also butter for 2 bux a lb. Just a little storefront retail at the front of the Dairy off of county Road F. Tip: buy some apples to go with your cheese. Cheese is very binding. Heh. read more

If you are ever around this area, you DEFINITELY have to check out the Decatur Dairy. They offer tours (cheap, $2 when we went) that have a very passionate cheese maker tell you all about the process. Did you know all cheese is white? Things like munster and cheddar are colored for looks purposes only. Guess that never occurred to me. Anyways, the real reason to stop in is the cheese. I highly recommend about 10 bags of curds, as they tend to go quickly in my house. The BBQ ones are my favorite, although the garlic and dill ones are quite tasty as well. read more

Traveling through Wisconsin you get to visit lots of dairy's. Decatur Dairy is a favorite. What better way to sample their cheese is by a grilled cheese sandwich...theirs is really worth the trip. They have many flavors of curds and you get to sample them too. The prices are very reasonable...I have ordered their meat and cheese tray...such a big hit...don't forget the beer mustard!! read more
