Decatur Dairy

Decatur Dairy came highly recommended for its renowned grilled cheese and cheese curds, so we decided to give it a try. We ordered the 3 Mouseketeer grilled cheese sandwich and the On Wisconsin grilled cheese sandwich. Both were oozing with gooey cheese and a special sauce, all nestled between perfectly toasted sourdough bread. The sandwiches were absolutely delightful, living up to their reputation.We also took home dill cheese curds and beer cheddar cheese curds. While both were enjoyable, they didn't quite reach the level of excellence we anticipated, especially since they're touted as being made fresh daily. They were good, but not exceptional.Overall, Decatur Dairy is definitely worth a stop for their amazing grilled cheese. The cheese curds, however, were a bit of a letdown.

We get cheese gift boxes and cheese for our Christmas every year. We ordered our gift boxes online and picked up along with cheese curds and a variety of other cheeses on our way to FL for the Christmas holidays. The cheese boxes are only $15. We purchase sausage from another business and add them to the cheese boxes.The cheese here is so fresh and creamy. It is the reason we drive out of our way to come here. And we have a nice variety to charge on our cheese and sausage platter over the holidays. The clerks are knowledgeable and friendly. We have been coming here for years when it use to be a small counter and register in the barn and they had a dog to greet everyone. It has grown over the years, the dog is gone and the store is nice size which also includes a public restroom.

I've already reviewed Decatur Dairy before, but I love this place as always!!! Service is good, there's always people here, & the food is always immaculate!

There's a great selection of cheeses and sausage here. We're not from Wisconsin but we sure are Cheeseheads. Since we no longer live close to the dairy, we can also get our cheese fix via mail. While all their cheese is excellent, we're especially fond of their Stetler Swiss.

If you find yourself on a road trip seeking awesome cheese and scenery in southern Wisconsin, you won't find a better destination than Decatur Dairy. They have a full menu of amazing grilled cheese sandwich creations as well as yummy ice cream and plenty of outdoor seating. Their curds are beyond amazing and with so many varieties! Serious squeak appeal! I only wish they would offer a sample plate to be able to experience all of the curd goodness. Oh, did I mention they have an amazing selection of bulk cheese too, including several award winners? Go... there...now!

Every time I have visited Decatur Dairy, I've left with a few pounds of cheese. There's nothing like Wisconsin lactose!Like so many others, when you arrive to this creamery, you pull up to a building that looks like a farm with a small plant in front. They're a handful of parking spots, and apart from modest signage, you wouldn't know you were pulling up to top-notch, third-generation creamery owned by an award-winning, Master Cheesemaker.On my does it yesterday, I was the only one in the shop until another customer walked in. Typically, there can be as many as a half a dozen or more customers in the tiny space. There's nowhere to sit and eat, but if you taste test enough different cheeses, ans maube some regionally-made sausage, you won't leave hungry.The ladies behind the counter are always very friendly and Incredibly helpful. Just as important, they're also very knowledgeable, even Kyli, the youngest of the team who helped me yesterday. I had plenty of tastes, she gave plenty of good recommendations and I left with plenty of cheese.Again, like other Wisconsin creameries, Decatur sticks to regional specialties from brick and bitterkase, cheddar to farmer, gouda to havarti, Muenster to Swiss, and, in my opinion, the awful blue cheese and Limburger varieties. The Stettler family offers variations on all of these categories. Decatur, of course, has a slew of different curd choices.On this visit, I immediately went for a Muenster and was in search of something special. I was offered smoked, pepper, and a few others, and was thrilled with a slightly-aged muenster cheese which I had never seen before elsewhere. I also took home a half pound of Ukrainian cheese, something unique. The last two winners on my visit were the Stettler Swiss family specialty and an eight-year-old cheddar which was just shy of being crumbly and just at the edge of beginning to gain some crystalline texture. The prices are so outstanding I feel like a FIB pirate taking Cheesehead booty!Decatur Dairy sells mostly their own cheeses, but they do sell some from other creameries around Wisconsin and a few from out of state. It doesn't make any sense to me to buy anything but what they produce in house. They also have a half-dozen ice creams from another Creamery, and those are worth tasting and enjoyable to take a scoop out into the parking lot. They are so fresh and flavorful, noticeably better than anything you'll buy in the big box grocery freezer.

Cheeses were fresh and delicious. Prices are reasonable. Highly recommend this place. Location was out of the way but worth the trip

Loved it! Excellent spot, great sandwiches, the cheese curds are the best I've had, and the Kolby Swiss is so unique. Can't wait till the next time I'm in Wisconsin to go again!

This place always slaps! The 3 mousekateers sandwich is my favorite! Everyone working there is so nice and respectful. And the inside is very small, kind of wish it were a bigger seating area with only two round tables and three chairs. The chips are amazing, wish they sold them at the Pig!

Really cool deli attached to a diary. High quality food! Definitely recommended for a quick bite to eat. More cheese than you can shake a stick at! for
