They came to us, and our office building has a beautiful ,exclusive rooftop. It was the perfect backdrop on an absolutely wonderful afternoon. All of the materials were available, not just the cheese and meats and all that. But also knives, cutting boards, etc. The owner was our instructor and she was the sweetest. Each person in the group got their own kit and they gave us advice on how to arrange things based on flavors and type of item, encouraged our designs and it was really fun. The amount of food we got was insane. I would totally recommend Cheers to Cheese for team gatherings, bachelorette parties, all that stuff. I mean.. Just look at the photos (heart eyes).

We had a medieval/Renfair themed wedding, and she nailed the theme! The grazing table was decadent and full of delicious treats worthy of a King's Feast! She incorporated our decorations, and she had fresh flowers and greenery weaved in. All of it was beautiful! Definitely worth the price! The fruit was plump and fresh, the cheeses were unique, and the chocolates were to die for. Nothing went to waste! If I lived in the Schaumburg area, I would be working with Joanna for all my special events!

The staff there is truly into their craft and provide the best time for all their services. I finally got to try their sandwiches after years of coming for their charcuteries and various classes (all of which you truly cannot go wrong with), and they were to die for. We split their classic grilled cheese and the TBB and they were both nothing short of phenomenal. The grilled cheese comes with tomato soup which was delicious, and you're able to choose a side for all their sandwich options (we chose arugula salad, which was perfectly lemony). My one and only suggestion would be to offer a toasted option for the TBB sandwich, but it was also truly great as is - I would definitely get both again! Also a random rec but they carry a pretty hard to find red sparkling wine that is AMAZING - Cleto Chiarli Lambrusco Amaible, must try!

We had great help from Emily as we made selections. Beautiful Rind has a fine variety that included several domestic and import cheeses I hadn't seen before. I would've loved to have gotten some of the soft rind cheeses available, but alas, I was traveling the next day and needed more durable cheeses! I bought four small wedges plus a goat caramel from the counter. I would be glad to return here on another trip to Chicago!

I stopped in on a weekend morning and throughout my time here there was a constant flow of customers coming and going. Staff members were able to keep up with the influx of weekend customers. Within 5 minutes of placing my order my items were ready to be picked up at the front counter.

An unforgettable cooking class--pure joy from start to finish!…read more I cannot rave enough about this cooking class. Four friends and I signed up on a whim, and it turned into one of the most memorable evenings we've had together in ages. The highlight was learning how to make fresh fettuccine from scratch--yes, from scratch--and somehow the instructor Jason made the whole process feel both totally doable and ridiculously fun. From the moment we walked in, the atmosphere was warm, welcoming, and buzzing with good energy. Jason was patient, hilarious, and incredibly knowledgeable, guiding us through every step without ever making it feel intimidating. Before long, we were kneading dough, rolling it out like pros, and cheering each other on as our pasta strands got longer and more impressive. And the best part? Sitting down together at the end to enjoy the meal we created. The pasta was unbelievably fresh--silky, tender, and honestly better than many restaurant dishes I've had. Unfortunately, we ate so fast. We forgot to take a picture! Sharing that meal with friends made it even more special. After we ate, we were entertained by the fabulous Yuiza Beach! A local entertainer from Rogers Park. She was funny and charismatic, and kept us in stitches the whole time! Her performance was as fabulous as she was If you're looking for a unique, hands-on experience that blends learning, laughter, and seriously delicious food, this class is a must. We left full, happy, and already planning our next visit. Highly, highly recommended!

However, the outside seating near the street can be SO buggy (we were being eaten alive) and service is super slow and inconsistent.

I've ordered a charcuterie board here once, and the selection was awesome. There's a lot of potential here if you are patient, order a full bottle of wine (rather than by the glass to avoid waiting forever for your waiter between rounds) and if you bring your own bug spray if you sit outside.
