A very impressive cheese selection, they also sell fish, meat, hot sauces and candy. Oh, and they make their own fudge. On the rare visit to North Michigan as a kid, we would stop and satisfy my dad's meat and cheese fix. While much has changed, much has stayed the same. They still make great cheese and still feature the down home atmosphere they've had from the beginning. The service here is second to none. I admit i stop here for the pizza loafs and the jerky. My cousin orders hams, bacon, etc. at very reasonable prices. My wife is here for the 120 month Colby. Pro Tip: Excellent smoked salmon spread and pepperoni cheese. 08/24 read more

Has anyone ever ODd on cheese? If they did, they probably visited the Pinconning Cheese store. This store has everything for the cheese aficionado. This store was pretty interesting, lots of options in chunk cheeses, curds, dips/spreads, and gourmet varieties, plus wine and beer, fudge, crackers, breads, salty and sweet snacks, jellies, candy, and gifts. I purchased some pimento cheese spreads, specialty bread and snacks in a recent vacation for the road. I couldn't figure how we've never made a trip to the Pinconning Cheese store til now. I like their cheese dips and have bought them at otter retailers before, but this trip was a first for our family. I was pretty impressed with the place. read more

We have finally made our way to all four cheese shops in the Pinconning area, with this shop being the last on our map. Last but not least, as they say. We had high expectations and we're not disappointed. The loaves resemble calzones. They are loaded with deliciousness, like game chunks of ham and melted cheese and the supreme comes with tomato sauce, pepperoni, bell peppers and mushrooms. and of course, lots of cheese. It is definitely worth a stop here just for the warm bread loaves. We also liked the deli counter where you can order slices of your favorite cheeses and the small grocery area with a sampling of goodies to pair with cheese selections. It is just enough without being overdone. There are two tables outside to sit and enjoy your snacks though the view faces the parking lot and road. These people have stayed in business for a reason; they know what they are doing. read more

I have always been a fan of cheese and can remember asking to go to Pinconning as a kid on a family vacation. So on a recent vacation of course I wanted to stop again to get some cheese. I wanted to also grab lunch and head to a local park. I was advised by other reviews to purchase the pizza loaf which I did indeed as well as ham and cheese for myself. Did I want a lot more cheese, of course but traveling with a cooler limited my options as I'm a few hrs away. There is so much lovely cheese products here for those who aren't limited in storing or have a longer stay to consume the product. Yes definitely recommend the pizza and or ham and cheese loaf for lunch or dinner. The size is great and the fillings are plentiful.Thank you for the 78 yrs of business. Now my son has a Pinconning story. read more

I love stopping here when I'm town. My son loves the pizza loaf, which is too heavy for me. The squeaky cheese curds are just that and the 16 year cheddar is delicious. read more

Great Pinconning cheese. Huge selection of everything else cheese, jam, meat and snacks. A good stop right off the freeway and great parking if you have your camper!! Will be retuning on our way to this area every time. read more

A throwback, old time country cheese store. Plenty of types of cheese to choose from. Large selection of fudge, sauces and old time candy. Purchased a horseradish cheese spread, along with a small block of mild pinconning cheese. Couldn't resist a roll of lifesaver type root beer hard candy. The samples of cheese were delicious. read more

I love, love, love Pinconning Cheese! As soon as I checked onto the lovely Pinconning Trails Inn I headed to this store, which I remembered liking when I was here in 2007. They let me taste several varieties of cheeses and I decided to get the milder version. Don't you just love the way it squeaks when you eat it?? Best cheese in the whole wide world! This place also sells deli sandwiches and many kinds of jerky, canned goods, and local specialties. But it's the cheese that's a chunk of heaven..... read more

Our favorite stop on the way to any "up north" trip. Great selection of cheeses, dips and snacks. Best part is they will make you a fresh deli sandwich to order on their homemade bread with your choice of any toppings and cheeses. Friendly helpful staff. read more

Stopped here for cheese and fudge on our way from one campground to another. Discovered that in addition to delicious cheese and fudge, they have pizza rolls. Awesome lunch stop and they had room for us to pull in with our camper in their side lot. read more

There's a wall of hot sauces! Complete with ghost peppers. Delicious jerky. Cheese. Their pizza sandwiches are really good...Every time I've been here, the workers have been really helpful and sweet. There are seasonings and a few canned items. Chocolate covered and yogurt covered pretzels. Doesn't look like much from the outside but it has many items to satisfy your hungry stomach! read more

A classic part of Pinny. This places has hot food during the lunch rush and cold beer for after work. It's on the edge of town but still worth a stop if you're going to do the full cheese circuit. read more

Stopped at Pinconning Cheese Company after originally stopping at another cheese place in town. Pinconning isn't the best in town, cheese-wise, but does have a lot of offerings - especially with their beef/turkey/chicken jerky. Be on the lookout for their homemade cookies at the counter as well! read more

Amazing place! Such great customer service! The cheese was the best in town, hands down. Some other great homemade options

Remembered this cheese my Dad always brought down from Michigan. Shipping prices seem outrageous but cheese made it worth it. They failed to ship 3 cheese spreads I ordered but, reshaped them down at no additional charge. Will be using them again closer to the holidays. read more

Had a great visit to try to find cheese curds and interesting cheese things. Walked out with fresh baked strudel and dried cheese bites that were really tasty! Might have to return again soon to sample the fudge. read more

Lots of cheese, jams, hot sauce, fudge to choose from. Always a place to stop when we're in the area.

Great customer service! They were very patient with our large group. The cheese was delicious. We got pizza pockets to eat any they were very good. My brother in law was not too impressed with the "pasty" he ordered. This was a great, friendly shop and I'm glad we stopped! read more

In a town that is known for cheese this is not the place to stop. It was a big let down. Small, cramped and boring. The people were nice though. read more

You need a deluxe pizza roll in your life. Call ahead and pick it up warm if you can.

Stopped at the other cheese shop on 75, was treated horrible by their staff and after walking out, decided to visit this place. What a difference, the staff were warm and inviting, asked if we had any questions, when we mentioned we were interested in local pickles, they showed us their products and also recommended another shop further north. The were extremely helpful and kind. The cheese spreads are amazing! Thank you for a great experience! read more

Love this place. The cheese always taste so fresh & the you cant beat the affordable prices. Highly recommend

We stop in Pinconning every time we go up North because we LOVE Pinconning cheese. This was the first time we stopped here at the Pinconning Cheese Store. We are NOT happy. First, the lady at the counter told us that all the breads in front of us on the counter were baked fresh that morning. In reality, that bread was so old and dry, and it tasted terrible, and it now has mold on it the next day. That was a flat out LIE that it was baked that morning. Also, I am not quite sure what kind of cheese I bought there, but it in no way tasted like Pinconning cheese and I have been eating the same kind of cheese for 50 years so I know my cheese. We had to go down the street to our usual cheese shop and get it there. Needless to say, we will never go back to a place that lies to sell goods. Sad really.... :( read more

Pinconning is over rated as a cheese place. I went to this shop and the ladies are rude and act like they are doing you a favor by getting you thier over priced products. The cheese I brought was moldy the next day, the sausage did not live up to its billing. They offered no samples. The service was the worst, they need to hire younger more energetic people. read more

This was our first trip to Pinconning, but it won't be our last! I can't compare to other stores in the area, obviously, but I thought the staff was very friendly and helpful. We bought several types, and were amazed at the creaminess of the 10-year old extra sharp! Now I am spoiled and will hate any other cheese I buy in the grocery store! It's not cheap, $17/lb, but you won't need to eat a ton of it to get your cheese fix! Can't wait to try all the others we bought! And what we bought was vacuum sealed and will keep in the fridge forever until it's opened. Thought about giving some as gifts but decided to keep it all to ourselves! Maybe next time...! read more

Stopped in for a fudge fix. Great assortments of cheese, candy and hot sauces. I unfortunately could not comfortably shop with two unruly children trashing the store. Bad parents. read more

Previous reviews gave us high expectations but we were very disappointed. We were totally ignored by employees. Found the place drab and poorly presented. Walked out and drove to Williams Cheese Company who totally have their act together read more

I love this cheese shop! Raised in Beaverton, MI, but a southern native, this is my go-to place for getting smoked herring, pickled Bologna and squeeky Pinconning cheese when I miss home! No one in Texas has ever heard of pickled Bologna, so it was my pleasure to find that they had a website where I can buy online. Now my fiancée can know the pleasure of club crackers with big hunks of Kogels Bologna! I have ordered from them twice online and visited the brick and mortar store once and the experience has been great all three times. The price for shipping can be high, so I doubled my order this time, so I don't run out as quick. read more

Great place to stop while going up north. Fantastic selection of cheeses and meats. You can pick up some very nice gifts for people who enjoy Hot sauces. I have never seen such a selection of different hot sauces any place else. Will be back for more of there great salads you get a big salad for a really good price. A stop everyone should make while going up north. read more

16-year-old yellow Cheddar. Six-teen! Sure, you can visit the mouse across the street, but what I am telling you is 1-6: 16-year-old Cheddar! Crumbly, tangy but smoothed out by the mellow aging. The staff is friendly, and they were happy to give me a sample. I tried the 10-year first, and it was very good, but contrasted with the 16: no contest. You're probably going to have to wait in line to check out. The sell a lot of pizzas too. It is worth the wait, and it's only about 5 miles from I-75. Get off at Exit 181 (Pinconning Rd.) and head east (past the Cheesehouse) to the real traffic light (ignore the blinky ones), and go left on Mable/US 13. It's not too far down on the left. Not a big place, but worth a visit! read more

Outstanding! Absolutely brilliant little shop. Everyone was pleasant and courteous. The cheese was to die for! We bought several types and tasted more! My husband and I stood reveling for several minutes at the Wall of Hot Sauce. We like hot sauces!! This store has a little something for everyone (hot sauce,canned goods, cheese, jerky and more). You missing our if you do not stop in! read more
