    They held my cheese for me for 5 days! Excellent customer service. Would definitely use them again.

    Today, I stopped by to pick up some Gruyere for a quiche, and Ari told me about a new garlic Gouda they'll be carrying soon.

    No food fascinates us quite like cheese, whether it's arranged on a beautiful platter, grated over…read morepasta, or melted between two slices of bread. Cheese is a dairy product made by fermenting milk and draining off the excess liquid. Depending on the style, cheese can range in flavor from mild and sweet to savory and nutty to funky and pungent. It can be soft and spreadable, creamy and smooth, or firm and crumbly. It's been enjoyed in cultures around the world for thousands of years, and today, cheesemaking takes place on every continent except Antarctica. In Seattle's Pike Place Market, visitors to Beecher's Handmade Cheese have a cheese lover's dream come true. They watched a glass-walled cheesemaking kitchen firsthand on the crafting of their signature favorite, Flagship cheese, as well as many of the other award-winning cheeses when my partner, his family, and I visited in July. To our surprise, there was no wait when we arrived, which was unexpected given how popular this place is. Bite sizes of Flagship and Marco Polo cheese were available for samplings. From the very first bite, we were hooked by its rich, creamy texture and perfectly balanced flavors. While there is no dine-in option, it's strictly a pickup spot. Surrounded by the lively buzz of locals and tourists, visiting this establishment feels like a quintessential Seattle moment.

    So good!! I honestly don't think I've ever had mac and cheese this good before…read more Beecher's Handmade Cheese is right at Pike Place Market. There was definitely a line when I went. Don't let the line scare you away. It moves fairly quickly and it's absolutely worth the wait. The Mac and cheese was yummy. It was creamy, rich, and just so comforting. Tried their sandwich which went well with the Mac and cheese. Keep in mind that there's no dining area here and it's pretty much standing room only. Definitely a must try when visiting Pike Place Market.

We ordered the Meatball Sub and Eggplant Sub with marinara sauce. Both sandwiches were flavorful and satisfying. The meatball sub was hearty and comforting, while the eggplant sub had a rich marinara sauce that worked well with the sandwich. We were especially disappointed that the Cubano was sold out, as it was one of the main reasons we stopped by. The only drawback was the price--at around $20 per sandwich, it felt a bit expensive for what you get, especially considering it was just a 6-inch sub, even though the quality was good. We visited during a FIFA World Cup match, so the line was quite long, but it moved steadily and efficiently. No complaints there. The atmosphere is casual and straightforward, with indoor seating only. Its downtown location near the stadiums makes it a convenient spot for a quick meal before or after an event. Overall, a good sandwich shop with quality food, though the pricing keeps it from being a must-visit. I'd still come back to finally try that Cubano.

Food: (4/5) I'm not the biggest fan of mac and cheese in general because it gives me flavor fatigue sooo fast, but this one was really good! I've had Beechers at the famous Pike location many years ago and don't remember it being so delicious. I have no idea what exactly my partner ordered, but it was soo creamy and just the right amount of cheesy. It was so steamy that it stayed hot for a good amount of our flight as well. This is definitely something I would like to start getting more often, especially as a comfort food before something that can be physically taxing like a long flight.

    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.

I'm a huge wine person, but wasn't in a wine mood, so didn't get any, however, they had a lot of incredible wines to pick from. Our server was super sweet and attentive. We shared the mushroom melt and green salad. Both were so delicious. The salad was filled with tasty and fresh goodies. The sauce was really yummy. I love that our sandwich came with brown butter popcorn. The space is really cozy. They have shelves of wine, bar seating, and normal tables around. There isn't a bathroom in the space, but they have a key for a bathroom within stores it's attached to. There was street parking out front. I recommend checking this spot out for food and wine.

I'm here to review the food, which is great and unlike other menus in the neighborhood. Here, you will find "bar food" elevated so high it could hold its own among fine dining. My mom and shared a few plates: the Vinbero club, the spring pea risotto, and the kale Caesar salad. Everything was delicious. The club is packed with thinly sliced chicken breast, crunchy bacon, and fresh tomatoes, greens, and avocado. The contrast between the bite from the aioli on the inside of the sandwich and the sweet tartness of the balsamic drizzle on the outside was fun and unexpected. The kale caesar was very fresh with a great dressing. But for me the star was hands down the pea risotto. Perfectly creamy, vibrant green, and packed with fresh spring flavor. It appears they change up their risotto offering every so often, and it's gone now, but I will dream of that one until it appears again. Our server (maybe the owner?) thoughtfully split our sandwich onto two plates (hence why the photo only shows one half) and added the side of popcorn to both plates. A nice touch. The inside is a little small and dark though well-appointed. Their mini patio outside is crowded and uncomfortable. But they're doing their best with what the space they have. And truly the food is a standout in the area.

I'd been looking for them everywhere, and I was so glad when I spotted them at Beecher's a few years ago. Whenever I have a craving, I can just stop by the mall and pick up a bag! Regarding their food, I wish they listed all ingredients on the menu. I love their lasagna, but it has spinach in it, which I'm intolerant to, so the first and last time I ordered lasagna at Beecher's was a pretty painful experience. During my most recent Beecher's trip a few weeks ago, my boyfriend ordered a grilled cheese and their salmon mac and cheese. I had a few bites of both, and they were delicious. The grilled cheese was perfectly crispy, and I loved the crunch it made when I first bit into it. The gooey-ness of the cheese in the macaroni was also incredible, and I loved the texture. I'm sure I'll come back soon! I would probably be more inclined to drop by during every mall trip if they had better coffee. Every time I order an iced mocha, it's overpriced and absolutely disgusting. The flavours are never incorporated, and every time I think it will be different, it's the same.

I feel the turnover on the mac is definitely not as high and so the mac gets overcooked hanging out in the warmer. The turkey sandwich was a little crispier than I'd like (nearly burnt). service was very friendly though, and I do like that beecher's has a location outside of pike place, but unfortunately it isn't as up to par either.

This was my favorite wine). AND a free snack bowl was provided! The workers did an excellent job. They brought out the wines one at a time- describing each one in detail, even pointing out which were their favorites. The service was very personable, which is something I don't always get at other places that do wine tastings. The chocolates were melt in your mouth, with unique flavors, making it extra fun. I must note- getting the flights that we did was pricey, but I know, most wine tastings and fancy chocolates are going to be expensive. I also wish there was a little more chocolate in the flight.
