It's really cool know they make their cheeses fresh and you can see the process too. The line was a bit long but definitely moved quickly. Totally worth stopping by if you are at the Pike Place Market.

Our last visit to Beecher's was in 2015, so I was curious to see what we'd think of it in 2026…read more The store is looking pretty hip these days, with a great display counter and plenty of cheeses to choose from. And considering the Pike Place location, I thought the takeaway menu was surprisingly reasonably priced. We got two large Mac & Cheeses. We'd also grabbed some takeaway from another Pike Place spot, and were glad we had--the "large" macs really aren't all that large. The mac and cheese was good, but honestly, if I went back, I think I'd skip it and grab a couple of their more interesting cheeses and some good bread instead. With that whole cheese counter sitting right there, that seems like the more exciting way to do Beecher's.

It is a very cool…read morespecialty shop, and I love how the labels have fun little facts about the cheese or suggestions about how to use the cheese. It's very thoughtful and makes the shop approachable, as opposed to having a stuffy atmosphere. The cheesemonger is quite knowledgeable and very helpful. I knew what cheese I wanted to buy, but he was helping out other customers and having a great time. I'll definitely come back if I need a high end charcuterie board. Do note that the cheeses can be pretty expensive, but I chalk it up to the location (rent is expensive!) and also the sourcing/rarity of the cheeses. I wonder if the cheeses ever get discounted if they're at the end of their shelf life...I would totally snatch them up!

I have to say, Beecher's Handmade Cheese in the airport is overrated. For a place that gets so much…read morehype, our visit was a disappointment. The food fell short across the board: Tomato Soup: It was way too sour, lacking any of the rich, balanced flavor you want in a classic tomato soup. Mac & Cheese: While they call it the "World's Best," it was just way too cheesy to the point of being overwhelming. Instead of being creamy and balanced, it felt heavy. To make matters worse, the guy serving us really wasn't very friendly, which only added to the subpar experience. Between the letdown dishes and the service, it's definitely not worth the airport premium. And it's the airport and the tables were filthy.

Be sure to order stuff you REALLY like on the burger because you're getting a TON of it. I like bleu cheese, but I will not be getting that one again. These burgers are for toppings LOVERS.

My bf reminds me of this store we randomly came across one day. It has what the store in Lakewood has but more grocery options. Cute and homey store. I spent about 30mins+ give or take shopping for the family. There are many options of trinkets, chocolates (alcohol ones too) , drinks, mustards, curry ketchups, gummy candy, bread, gravy etc. I did notice they don't carry any Maggie products for gravy and such. I know that was my bro's first question as he prefers that brand lol. The staff is really kind. The deli dude was patient with me as I told him I have a lot to order. I met the female owner and she's a sweetheart. The cashier lady was also so helpful as I couldn't find a specific brand candy. She pointed me in the right direction and luckily there was enough :) There's plentiful parking in the lot, and can get pretty cramped when busy as it's not a big store but has many options. My basket total in my picture provided is $255. My brother in law asked me to take them here next time they're in town as there's so much to look at.
