Oh rats! I was hoping this place'd be better…read more.. Driven past this on roadtrips many a time; decided to actually stop in and check it out on the most recent trip. I'd been drawn in by the silly rodent statue on top of the building, because I like touristy shops. Upon entry I immediately realized the place was kind of dingy and gross. We got there with about half an hour 'til closing and this fact certainly showed in the affect of all the employees. I was curious about sampling some of the cheeses, but all of the employees were apparently too busy getting ready to close to help us, so we didn't get to try any of the many varieties. It was a bit odd to me to have potential customers there in the store during business hours, and the employees are steadfastly ignoring our presence to turn off the lights and such. We took the hint, quickly used the restroom, made a small courtesy purchase, then left. Speaking of the restroom, the floors were really sticky. Eww. Noticed they had lots of signage up that they were hiring. Yeah, they should probably hire someone who gives AF, if I'm being really honest, cuz it seems to me this place probably was great at one point but has fallen into disrepair. I got a couple pieces of taffy and hubby got a bag of nuts. We could tell from the taste/texture that these items had been sitting for awhile. I'm not a proponent of wasting food, but if your store can't turn products around before they're expired, I recommend perhaps just not selling those things and stick to cheese... Anyway, reckon we'll try out another of the many cheese shops in Wisconsin next time we drive through. There's certainly plenty to choose from!

What a fun place that is So Wisconsin. We stopped by for lunch on a beautiful Saturday and it was…read moredifficult deciding what type of grilled cheese sandwich to order. They have classics and signatures grilled cheese choices. I got one with ham and cheese and my wife got one with two types of cheese. The sandwich was tasty. It came with a side. I got the kettle chips which were very good and my wife a salad. You also get unlimited milk - we both opted for flavored chocolate (raspberry and banana). Delicious. If it were a bit warmer we would have sat outside. They do have a small playground and a shed with some calfs for kids. They also have a great selection of ice cream which was tempting but we passed on it. Their store features cheeses and other dairy products from many different producers. The prices were reasonable.

Inside the building was warmer, smelled of fresh milk and cheese, it was also extremely clean! Dave took his time to answer questions, he showed us how the milk enters the small building, how the workers prepare and salt the cheese by hand, and where the cheese is stored in the walk in refrigerator (a little chilly). We were able to sample some spicy pepper jack, soft sharp cheddar, and squeaky curds! It was well worth the drive and early wake up. We purchased these 3 cheeses for $30 and learned they will keep at room temperature for several days, and we plan to put them in our carry on luggage on the way home to share with friends and family. Thank you for the wonderful experience Union Star and we are happy to know how you turn some of your cheeses yellow!

And of course I saw this place and knew I had to check it out. The location is what feels like the downtown Milwaukee area. The folks here are very friendly and very, very helpful. They have a good variety of cheese here. Different types and aged at different intervals. You can go from the more mild younger cheese to the older sharper cheese as an example (trust me there's a lot of cheese here). I would definitely hit this place up more if I lived in the area. I ended up taking a little bit of cheese for my trip home from here as well as some gourmet popcorn seeds.
