Our story...

Kendra Mantey
The Cheese Lady - Farmington

Our store is located in Downtown Farmington, in the shopping center adjacent to Riley Park and Sundquist Pavilion. The park is the site of the Farmington Farmers and Artisans Market and free evening concerts in the summer, and converted to an outdoor skating rink in the winter. Although our address is listed as 33041 Grand River, our store is actually around the corner on Grove Street, between Painting With a Twist and TJ Maxx.

Our path to becoming the newest Cheese Lady shop began with our discovery of the Grand Rapids location in 2013. At that time, my husband and I were making monthly trips across the state to get his father settled into a new home. Being avid cheese-lovers, a stop at The Cheese Lady on our way out of town became our ritual.

Meanwhile, renovations in Riley Park, the growth of our local farmers market, and newly vacant commercial space in the heart of Downtown Farmington seemed to offer a perfect setting to bring The Cheese Lady to the Metro-Detroit area. Having lived just outside Downtown Farmington for over 20 years and witnessed its development, we felt it was the perfect time to take a leap of faith and invest in bringing the specialty cheese shop we’d fallen in love with to our neck of the woods.

Come into our shop to sample and learn about any of our more than 100 varieties of cheese. Kyle Tackett, our assistant manager, studied culinary arts at Schoolcraft College while honing his skills at two popular Farmington restaurants: Cowley’s and Peterlin’s. Feel free to ask him about ways to use our cheeses and other products to create dishes that will impress your guests!

We also offer gift basket packages, fair-trade Ghanaian baskets, locally made woodwork and paper products, wine, and craft beer to guarantee you’ll find unique gifts that will please everyone on your list. We look forward to seeing you in our shop!
