I drove up to the doors to peek inside to see which door they were at? I didnt see them but decided to go in anyways.

Apparently there was a door just west of the ones i came in that they are at. The delightfully kind Darcey offered to get me one so i didnt have to walk further. Once she brought it to me she showed me how to operate it. Thank you Darcey!! You made my experience so much more wonderful and comfortable You were a joy to chat Halloween & sports w as well.

I don't shop there often due to such poor quality food. I have gotten meat that is bad to the point where the smell when I cut open the pack makes me sick. I have gotten different food from the deli that is not edible due to being spoiled or just bad. We even got some puppy chow made in the store that was wet!! I have taken food back a couple times but don't ever take an exchange. People are generally nice but poor quality food! Won't be back anymore and will encourage others not to go either based on my experiences? :(

To my joy there was a bench at the end of aisle 15!! I sat down for a rest before getting my items. More grocery stores should have benches!! Sometimes it can be a daunting task. Thank you!! Iguess Festival must bag your groceries as I saw several lanes w Self Bag signs, which I prefer. The cashier and I made two phone number attempts for a savings card. Eventually I was issued one. It also made me smile when I arrived and saw their different designated parking spots, besides just Hanicapped! I appreciated that the Veteran sign also had grattirude on it. Thank you Festival for a swift and easy shopping task this morning!

I'll be honest, I was a little unsure about what we were going to come across when we pulled off the highway into this town, but I'm so glad we stopped into Le Coulee. It was such a nice little shop with a great selection of cheese (and crackers!!!) and other gift-shop type things. The man working (who may have been the owner?) was so incredibly kind and helpful. We left feeling so satisfied that we got our Wisconsin cheese at the recommendation of a cheese-shop owner and had such a pleasant experience there!

Many grocery stores in Wisconsin have more extensive specialty cheese selections than the Cheese Castle. This place is 3 refrigerator sized coolers with cheese (and butter and meat). If looking for a wide variety of cheese, keep looking. If looking for a cute store with cheese and candy and such while in West Salem, than this certainly should be a stop you make. Ie, stop if in town, no need to go out of your way to stop, though.
