Dolcetto - Creamy cheese very tasty - Cheese Shops Near Me - Farmington, Michigan

I loved "The Cheese Lady Shop" until I discovered this. The shop is so great until I went back a week later for my second visit. This time I noticed a tall, grey-haired gentleman behind the counter with two packages of cheeses in his hand. He laid both of them on the counter and opened both packages. He then touched one of the cheeses with his fingers and then licked his fingers to taste the cheese. He then touched the other cheese with his fingers and then licked his fingers to taste that cheese. After that, he wrapped both cheese and put them in the fridge. I then asked him to wash his hands and he just looked at me. I asked him a second time to wash his hands. Then a young lady behind the counter explained that he couldn't tell the difference between the two cheeses so he licked them to see which was which. I said, "He still needs to wash his hands and you need to find a better process to do that!" At that point, she told him to wash his hands and he finally did so. I then told the young lady that I understand the process but you have got to find a better way without touching and licking the cheeses. I asked her to discuss this problem with the manager and she assured me she would. I went back a week later and this time I saw the manager. I told him what I saw last week and asked if they had changed their policy. His response to me was that "he didn't see it." I said "well, you were only 2 feet way...how could you miss the discussion?" I asked him again to find a better policy to determine cheeses without licking your fingers and touching the cheeses. He said okay. Well, I just can't get this out of my head so I am NOT going to shop there anymore. This cheese shop is great as long as you don't mind someone possible licking it first. As for me, I'm done read more

Best cheese in town! Staff was very helpful and even if you don't know what cheese you like they will be happy to help pick something out for you. Gorgeous cheese boards sold here too. read more

Dolcetto - Purchased some herbed goat, Primma Donna Aged Gouda and Maple Vermont cheddar. Enjoying some cheese and Michigan brews! - Cheese Shops Near Me - Farmington, Michigan

Excellent selection, excellent service. The worker there was very knowledgeable about the entire vast product line, prices were fair for a high end shop. Definitely go here for your cheese and cheese adjacent purchases. read more

Amazing little cheese boutique with a wide variety of different types of cheeses. They are very helpful, and give you a sample of the cheeses before you buy and they will cut as much or as little as you want. read more

This place has a great selection of cheese, which are listed on a board behind the counter. Each cheese is classified by milk type or texture, which is super helpful for those not-in-the-know. Sebastian, the cheesemonger (yet obviously not a "cheese lady" and that's cool) is friendly ready to offer up samples of anything in stock. Here's where the three stars comes into play...there is no cheese on display on counters, behind counters, or at room temperature. All the cheese is wrapped in coolers in plastic bags. Why is this an issue? Cheese should be served at room temperature or flavors are missed. A cold 18 month Cheddar may not have the same nutty, bright, crystally goodness or even melt-in-your-mouth texture that it would cold. Customers paying top dollar for cheese should be sampling it properly before taking it home. Perhaps having just some featured cheeses displayed would be a good start or advising customers to warm samples between their hands prior to tasting would be helpful. Novice cheese lovers are at a disadvantage trying cold cheese here and The Cheese Lady really does have some spectacular selections. They just need to step up their game to take advantage of it. read more

Wonderful a real cheese store! And Kyle knows about his cheeses! Have to hold myself back from a cheese overload. There ate real, imported cheeses. Not just fake Wisconsin wannbees. Do hope they get a great following. Make a trip to Farmington - you can catch a greeat flick at the Civic Theater. read more

We love this place. The staff is wonderfully knowledgeable and the cheese, wine, crackers and various other condiments are top rate. They have a top notch selection of knives and cutting boards as well as baskets and linens. Twice a week some wonderful cheesy lunch is made. Heavenly! What a great addition to Farmington as well as our lives. read more

I recently ordered a gift box over the phone because I am not in the area, and they were so great to deal with and even delivered it for me!! So friendly and helpful and the recipient of the gift box loved it too!! I definitely recommend the Cheese Lady! read more

I've been wanting to try this place for quite some time now. So happy I decided to go here for my secret Santa gift. They have a ton of things without it being cluttered, inside the store. I came for the gift boxes that were pre-made but they were sold out, they young lady provided me with another option which was to build my own box, only $10 more that the $25 box. Unfortunately I don't think "Kyle" was there that the other reviewers mentioned. The staff that was there seemed slightly stand offish at first but then they warmed up after a quick exchange of dialogue. I appreciate the fact the young lady allowed me to sample the cheeses I was unsure about. I didn't get a chance to fully look around, being that I was there on a mission! lol. I will definitely be back to try some different finds to create a charcuterie plate to pair with a sangria or anything related to wine and cheese. 4Stars only because the initial greeting was slightly awkward but they are most helpful once started and it's lots to choose from. read more

My fiancée and I have been here twice, and we love this place! Both times we were helped by THE cheese lady herself, who is so knowledgeable! She let us sample whatever we wanted until we could make up our minds on what to purchase. This store offers wine/cheese pairings on Saturdays and also sells wine/cheese accessories, various Michigan-made products, gifts, etc. t's just a fun place! read more
