    Do you know why I go to this Specialty Cheese Store? Pizza of course! Sure there's also a bunch of great cheese's all over the place to pick up, but their take home (and bake) pizza is pretty darn good. Simon's is not just a cheese factory store. There are many local beers, spirits, novelty gifts, clothing, meats, canned foods and candy's to chose from. Along with a made to order sandwich and lpizza counter. Come for the cheese, leave with a cart full other good stuff.... And a great pizza!

    Headed out to Appleton for a bball tourney and the family begged to get some genuine Wisconsin cheese. Simon's knows EXACTLY what it is and lives up to being a touristy stop for anyone wanting to experience the various Wisconsin cheese options. The entryway has a map where tourists add pins showing where they are visiting from (and it is pretty much covered). They have various Wisconsin merch (magnets, jams, cheese heads) and an unfathomable amount of cheeses and sausages. They offer pizza and subs in the back (but we didn't grab either). Pros: Amazing selection of meats and cheeses, plus ambiance is spot on. Cons: Don't come here expecting any of the staff to make any recommendations or with the hopes of sampling anything (not happening). During my visit, the sandwich staff was having a debate on when they were getting off and the cashier at the front was complaining about how many tourists come through. Overall, purchased a few cheeses and peppered summer sausage and a bottle of wine. I'd probably try a different "cheese place" if I found myself back up in the area.

    Simon's is my favorite cheese store in NE WI. I have been a patron here for years & the store has evolved into more much than just selling cheese. You can find everything WI & lots of local items. You can shop cheese, beer, wine, fudge, ice cream, dip, dressings, apparel & more. It's a great addition on a road trip or on your way N to Green Bay. My favorites are the fresh squeaky curds made on site. Three friendly staff will help you find all your WI needs.

    Great place to grab a huge variety of cheese and Wisconsin souvenirs. They have great snacks too like popcorn or corn nuts.

    Wow, just wow. I had some friends tell me they wanted me to get some cheese curds and string cheese for them while I was up here on business. I did a quick search and this is the top place that popped up and that was for a reason. This place has LOTS of different cheese, as well as a deli, New Glarus beer and lots of different items. I picked up the fresh cheese curds (thank you 12 degree weather since my hotel fridge doesn't have a freezer) and some string cheese, as well as smoked string cheese. I got a smoked string cheese for myself, as well and already tried some. The smoke is prevalent but it is still very good. I'll definitely have this be my main choice for cheese while I'm in the area.

    An excellent cheese stop if ever there was one. Conveniently situated within a block of the Hwy 41/Cty Hwy N exit in Little Chute. A great stop along the way to that Green Bay Packers game. A fun store with various locally made cheeses, meats, drinks, crafts, etc... Simon's cheese has great flavor & there's often a sampling tray or two somewhere within the store. This store says Wisconsin and there must be something of interest to just about everyone. Simon's Cheese rivals Mars Cheese Castle as a fun stop for a snack. They make a great take n' bake pizza.

    Best ever! And not a bad price. I think $5 bucks each.

    I used to live in Appleton for about 8 years. Simon's was always a place my family had to go to when they came into town or when my wife's family would come over from MN. This place is great. They had a big parking lot for buses and when u get inside u see why. There is something for everyone from cheese to fudge to greet take and make pizzas made to order and some in the freezer section frozen. They have various meats and sausage. Candy. packer and WI gear. Their shipping was down for awhile over the holidays. So now I live 4 hours away. I ordered up a lot of cheese that I like and it al was frozen so it will last awhile. This place really has the best cheese curds and motza cheese sticks around. I have had a lot of cheese and beef in my time but this place is awesome. The staff are very kind and professional. It's a Covid world people. They wear masks here and u have to too. So wear the mask. Spread the live. Safe a life. Until the next Yelp, -Yelp-Steve-O, out

    Who spends $90 on cheese? This guy.

    See all

    Variety of cheeses galore. Pizza shop in back but we didn't have any. Gift shop feel elsewhere. Friendly service.
