Every time I get ready to go to Leavenworth,  I get excited to visit the Cheesemonger's shop. Being the cheese monger that I am, I make this one of my first stops. The store is simple- cheese, mustards, dried meat and accessories to enjoy them. That's just the way I like it. It is in the basement, so it's cool inside on as hot day. Look for the blue sign with the mouse and cheese. You can try any and all cheeses they offer with free samples.  The prices are also very reasonable.  We like to get a cheese spread, grab some fruit (sometimes they have it when it's in season) and enjoy it for lunch at lake Wenatchee just up the road from Leavenworth. There are many cheese types, one to please any palette.  From sharp to mild, footy to flavor-rich. The staff is very friendly and good conversationalists.

I walked in with no intention of actually buying cheese... Though I do love cheese. I walked out with over $45 of cheese, sausage, and beer. Their little samples of cheese are gonna get you if you are lucky enough to try them. My entire family tried the applewood smoked cheddar and could not believe our taste buds. So incredibly delicious. Another favorite was the cheese that is loaded with chives. They have a nice selection of sausages, European beers and other German groceries items as well. Try the lager smoked sausage that they keep on the counter. It is outstanding.

Daniel helped us on our recent visit. I had wanted to know if they carried raw cheese as I can digest those far easier than I can pasteurized cheeses. I asked thinking the answer would be no, but to my great surprise, he had more then two options, like your general grocery store usual has. He opened my husband and up to cheeses I didn't even know existed. Like the cave aged gruyere and sheep parmesan. So delicious! But it isn't only the raw cheeses that are delicious. Their smoked apple cheddar was dynamite, as was the coconut cheese (pulled pork anyone?) Anyways you have to stop here if in Leavenworth!!!!

This place had such a wide variety of cheeses, I was astounded! It was quite a cool shop! One the workers was exceptional, can't remember his name. I asked him what his favorites were, and he shared them AND let me sample each one. His favorites were spot on, I bought two, and he was incredibly helpful! Check this place out!

Amazing service and the some of the best liverwurst I've ever had! They have samples of the day and will let u sample others you might be interested in. If you tell them what kinds of flavors you like they usually have recommendations for you as well.

This cute cheeseshop is situated in a basement, sort of. The selection of cheese and beer was almost overwhelming (in a good way) and the people working here were very friendly. Got to try some of the samples and opted for a half pound wedge of the Ewephoria, a Dutch sheep's milk cheese. It was delicious.

We go to The Cheesemonger's Shop every time we are in Leavenworth.  We also get cheese of the month delivered to our door and it is soooooooooooo worth it.  The selections that are sent to us might not be the ones I would pick on my own, but I'm delighted with the results.  Also, you get a brief description of the cheese along with a little history as well as a recipe to try.  Supporting small business is a bonus.

Cheese is aged, smoked, flavored and including different regions and animals to boot! These kind ladies & gentleman are very approachable, not pompous and great resources into the cheese world. I always felt intimidated by these type of shops as the employees know what they are doing and I do not. I must establish trust ad rapport quickly in order to work forward and the courage to ask about and experience new cheeses. The staff asked if I like this type and that type while establishing a good baseline as to what direction we should travel. I started with younger while cheeses and worked through some of the more funky, pungent, well-aged varieties. The samples are generous which makes for a memorable experience. I know I tasted an espresso infused cheddar? Wild combinations along with outstanding selection. They an awesome supply of local, craft beers--most are room temp and the cooler supply is small. The meat selection is reasonable. This is a MUST for any vacationers.

Excellent service and huge selection of cheeses. The staff was so helpful and friendly and helped us choose the cheeses we might want to try based on what we know we liked. Not a wine drinker, but they appeared to have a lot to offer there too. Don't live locally, but would definitely order and have their products shipped.

Samples samples samples! This place is a cheese lover's dream come true! The Cheesemonger may not have the largest selection, but they do have cheese I have never heard of before! Their staff are cheese lovers themselves, super enthusiastic and are not shy to recommend you their favorite! The minimal amount of cheese is a quarter of a pound, which really is plenty (for a lactose intolerant such as myself). The pricing is decent, i just love that you can sample any cheese your heart desires (that's in the shop, of course). When we went to pay, they even asked if we wanted plates and a plastic knife in case we want to eat it! Quite a thoughtful touch. I can't wait to indulge on my cheeses!

So fun. Helpful staff. Very good selection of delicious cheeses. Grabbed a porter cheese. So tasty. Tried a few different ones. They've also got a fun beer cooler.

The best variety of cheese from all over the world!! Staff is very friendly and happy to offer samplings of cheese. Very reasonably priced. Highly recommend.

Amazing service. Staff is phenomenal. You can taste EVERYTHING and will want to. My new spot for ALL the cheese and snacks.

Great little gem in the area and had a selection of swish cheese that we have been unable to find in the states. Gave us several samples and a military discount!

Service here is top notch and their cheese selection is great and they will pretty much let you try anything and everything. Who doesn't love a bit of cheese with wine? stopped by to see if they had any great soft or truffle cheeses to try. They let us try so many different types of cheese and fell in love with a garlic cheese and a jalapeno cheese so got a bit of both. They did have some great truffle cheeses but my friends who I were with don't really like truffle. The guy who helped was so helpful and informative. They also do a really good smoked cheddar too.
