Friendly staff, excellent cheese and accompanying foods - and hands down the best cheese curds in the world.
The ONLY issue I've ever had is with other customers ... pushing and shoving and interrupting to get more samples, while the staff are always patiently helping several people at once.

Kudos Gunn's Hill! :)

Lovely shop and viewing window. Brittany was assisting us at the counter and was very informative and shared with us an how they make their cheeses and we got to sample a few. We were happy to purchase 4-5 different kinds to take home to Quebec.

Wheelchair parking on site. Entrance has a 1" rise that can/could pose a small problem for some. But I was able to get in/out with power wheelchair. Accessible bathroom.

Also wanted to point out that their website has a wonderful page "explore the area" that points visitors to other artists, encouraging tourist to visit them and make a day of it. (markets, hotels, dining and agro tourism spots)

Would love to come back and do a 101 or fondu night with friends.

A good place to buy fresh cheese curds and in house made swiss style cheese, owner is very friendly and open to tell you about ingredients used in processing for those who have dietary restrictions. If you are a cheese curd lover which my gang of kids love to eat this is the place and friday or early saturday is the best time to get your share since friday is when they make fresh cheese curds. Don't wanna forget mentioning they have a very friendly dog on site who loves to play so kids may love this place as well.

Excellent cheese. Owned and operated by the original family. The tour is fun and very informative but be prepared for strong smells. Then reward yourself with some cheese from the shop. 5 brothers is the standout favourite but the Handeck was a close second.

Stan's fries in Brantford and Gunns Hill ... It's what makes the drive to London awesome! Love the Five Brothers cheese and discovered the Chip off the Bock this time round. A great stop off the 401!

Take the tour, it is worth it! Very insightful, and gave me a new appreciation for the length of time it takes to make an awesome cheese. The staff was friendly and knowledgeable and I ended up buying 7 different varieties of cheese LOL

This pretty spot just south east of Woodstock is the perfect place to acquire locally crafted cheese. Staffed by a small and friendly team that includes the owners, the sales floor allows a full view of the professional factory kitchen where they bring these delicious artisanal cheeses to life.

This place will ruin you for regular store brought cheese!
All the cheese and milk are produces and farmed on site which makes for some awesome tasting cheeses.
The average price range for cheeses is $2.50 - $4.50/100g and you can also get 1.5 - 2.0kg wheels of cheese. I don't know if they offer a discount of you get a wheel of cheese and frankly I'm afraid to ask, because if it's a good price I'll end up buying one and devouring it withing days!

Great selection of cheeses. My favourite, hands down is the curds. If you purchase them on Friday or Saturday they are never refrigerated which gives them the most amazing texture and flavour. Can't recommend enough.

If you want amazing cheeses, look no further. We discovered their products at the Milton's farmers' market last year and week over week, we keep buying their curds. The brie they make is to die for.
