They didn't carry vegan cheese on a regular basis but did share they have it periodically. So this was the main item that I stopped in for and was unable to purchase. The store is really quaint and cute. They had several jams/jellies, crackers, olive oils, balsamic vinegars and candies. They had some pre-made charcuterie boxes available for purchase. The store made fresh grill cheeses and offered a daily soup which all smelled amazing.

Also, they have a curated variety of imported and US-made food products. And house tools for cheese lovers (even kits to make cheese).

Everything is very well organized, and well taking care of and clean. They also have wines, ciders and beers to go there.

Glad I ended up going to brunch nearby. Wanted to check out their Gouda and their goat milk offerings. Could use some yummy goat milk cheese after all, right? Decided to try several of their different goat cheese Goudas. I learned that I prefer their harder cheeses, not fond of the soft cheese unless it's in a salad or something. I tried their midnight moon, ballerina, smoke, Beemster and honeybee. I ended up purchasing two 1/4 of each of the harder cheeses (Midnight moon, Beemster and Honey Bee) $46.86. The ballerina and smoked is a softer cheese and doesn't have as much flavor as the midnight moon. The midnight moon has the most defined flavor out of all that I tried today. More expensive than I would have liked, but fantastic that you can try many of them. The female staffer was more knowledgeable about the cheeses than the younger male staffer, he was nice to work with. She was just as nice.
