    Outside at the Cheese Cave
    Amber C.

    The cheese monger/head of cheese was a very energetic and entertaining lady. We walked away with some spicy pickles, French Brie, and English cranberry fruitcake cheese. Lots of funny cheese merch and a very knowledgeable proprietor who makes you feel welcome. Also has charcuterie and other Oregon provisions. Tiny spot that's worth a stop!

    I attended a pop up event that the Cheese Cave did at one of the local farms, which has a gorgeous screened in wine tasting room. I bought a cheese plate with some candied nuts, fruit, some of which was fresh from the farm that hosted, and three generous servings of very flavorful cheeses. I specifically asked for some bold flavors, and I do not have any food allergies, but sounds like there was a gluten-free cheese option available as well. When I visited the Cheese Cave location last, I saw that there are some made to order waffles with some different toppings available for purchase, so I think I will try that next time. I'll keep you all posted as to how that goes, and I'm excited for it as the waffle looked scrumptious when another customer ordered it.

    I do not like blue cheese. I'll get that out of the way first. But Rogue Creamery with their world…read morerenowned cheese? There's no way I could resist visiting. On a weekday morning right during opening, as soon as I opened the front door, I could smell funky blue cheese wafting through the entire shop. Rogue Creamery doesn't make many types of cheese - just a couple of blues and cheddar, nestled in a single refrigerated display case, but they also offer other cheeses from several different outside suppliers. To complete a cheese plate, they also sell an assortment of charcuterie items like jams and honeys, and plenty of items in the fridge. Of course, since we were traveling, we couldn't exactly buy much, so we went with one of their famous grilled cheeses: Classic Rogue Grilled Cheese ($8) - This sandwich includes a drizzle of honey on both faces of bread followed by a sprinkle of blue cheese. and then a veritable mound of cheddar, which is then sandwiched together and pressed in a panini press. The amount of cheese included creates an awesome cheese stretch. The sandwich is rich and fatty, and the bread, cheese, and honey blends creates a somewhat salty, funky and sweet bite. While the bread is toasted, I don't believed it's buttered, so it isn't that crisp. I'd like to see some additional crunchy elements in the sandwich - perhaps some toasted nuts? I dislike blue cheese immensely, but it's surprisingly mild and sweet in this sandwich, being blended and balanced with the cheddar. Would I get this sandwich again? Probably not, due to the blue cheese, but it was great to try! Rogue Creamery Rogue Gold Pepper Spread Spicy, 8oz ($7.25) - This seems to be Rogue Creamery's version of pimento cheese, colored orange by addition of plenty of red colored piquillo peppers. That adds a delightful mild spiciness along with a flavor that is kind of fruity and very peppery, different from pimentos. The cheese is high quality and there isn't any liquid precipitating out of the spread. It's easy to spread while still having plenty of soft cheese shreds. It's a great replacement for pimento cheese and I ate most of it spread on biscuits and baguette slices. (5/5) PS: Make sure to look at the best buy dates. The first couple of containers in the front looked kind of funky with oils/liquids precipitating out of the cheese. Turns out those were expiring/best by the day I went. Further back there were much fresher looking ones packed the previous day, which is what I chose to buy. Note: Do not follow google directions for parking - instead, the parking lot is a little bit to the South, right in front of a wine tasting bar and bakery. Bathrooms - Single unisex

The woman at the counter was extremely helpful and gave me a rundown of their various cheeses, they had several different blue cheeses along with cheddar cheese. She then offered us a tasting of some of the cheeses, and we loved them all. I We also ordered a couple of grilled cheese sandwiches which we ate on the picnic tables out front of the shop. I won't say that it was the best grilled cheese that I have ever had but it is high on the list. Although I wanted to buy one of everything, I decided to buy two blue cheeses and one cheddar along with a dip knowing that I could order more via the web. As we made our purchase the woman asked what we had seen and where we were headed. She made a couple of suggestions which were already on our list. As we left, I found myself thinking that everyone we had interacted with was so friendly and helpful, which made it a very pleasant experience!

The service is fast and good, the employees engage and give samples. My family has come here for over 20 years. It has expanded and shifted, a Josephine County -country- staple. Could be a tad cleaner at times in areas where people dine/freshen up, but I believe that has to do with the amount of traffic the store receives. I always see whoever is working, working hard. *Dog friendly patio* *Public restroom, baby changing table inside*

    YOU NEVER SAUSAGE A PLACE!!…read more I stop here whenever I am passing through the area. The place is very large. It's a full on meat store. They have sausage, of course, steaks, seafood, poultry, jerky, the works. They have a hard jerky and a soft jerky. I thought the hard jerky was too hard for me, but the soft jerky was perfect. I picked up some of the brisket jerky, the Japanese jerky, and their original jerky. Some of the items they make themselves, some of the items are brought in, but everything is good. They also have wines, sauces, condiments, the works. They also have a full on lunch counter, and in the back, for the kids or the kids at heart, they even have classic video games. Not only donkey Kong, but things such as pole position! They are $.50 now, instead of just a quarter, though.... I had the mushroom Swiss burger, with coleslaw, instead of fries on the side. The burger was done, medium, as I asked, and it was delicious! The coleslaw was very good, it was lightly dressed, and it was like a vinegar type dressing. The dressing wasn't too strong, it was just right. Lunch was a very large portion. Besides the jerky, I also got a blueberry sausage, and a chicken apple sausage, those are going to be excellent. For the quality of the things that you get get, the prices are reasonable. I will continue to stop here whenever I am passing through town. Thank you.

It's been 15 yrs since then. Lillie Belle - closed up shop this month - after 24 yrs of delighting people with their handmade artisan chocolates. Thank you Lillie Belle for bringing so much joy and goodness to the world. Trust. See original review back in 2010 below: For me - chocolate is seeped in nostalgia. I can remember spreading chocolate hazelnut spread on toast in Jakarta. I remember my first Snicker bar in Bali. Lying stomach-down with a Kit-Kat bar - on my great Aunt's carpet in Wales. Playing faux fondue parties with my barbies with a Cadbury Creme Egg in New Jersey My stomach groaning after a trippy Cadbury Factory tour, with excessive free chocolate- in England And the spicy kick of a Lillie Belle Farms' Crunchy Fire Bar comprised of sugared Pecans and Firey Chilis in dark Organic single origin chocolate - at a Furthur show in San Francisco. Given to me by a regal looking nine-year old redhead with a thin purple glow-stick weaved into her braids. And later - sweetly- given two other bars - - by her just as amazing nine year old friend; clutching a tye-dye plastic ball. As I snapped off pieces of those bars - beneath the moving iridescent colorful lights, while the soaring chords of a guitar wrangled my soul - I felt like I finally understood it all. Understood why. Why chocolate is so alluring. So seductive. I understood - as the brash kick of chile lingered at the back of my throat - intermingled with a coating of bitter sharp dark chocolate. Lillie Belle Farms now has a permanent imprint on my chocolate memories. So much so - that I've already ordered a couple of bars of chocolate from their website Even browsing through their site - makes me happy. I appreciate the simple packaging of their bars. Their straightforward organic ingredients. And moreso I love that I first discovered Lillie Belle Farms in a dark-love-filled-music-blessed concert space in San Francisco. Trust.

Purchased an entree of MacNCheese with Brisket for $17.00. I asked for a side of sauce for the brisket in case it gets dry. We received a laughable 1-2 teaspoons of meat juice in a tablespoon sized to go container. The brisket is thinly sliced and has a nice smoke ring; super tender, no knife needed. It is exactly 4oz of brisket (weighed). The macNcheese was different, used penne pasta with ridges (nice), topped with A LOT of garlic butter, so much so that there was a puddle of oil/butter in the container that had separated on the way home. A solid 1 cup of macNcheese (more butter/oil than cheeziness) with the exactly 4oz (weighed) brisket for $17.00. The portions are insanely small for the price point.
