The Better Cheddar

We love putting together charcuterie trays when we entertain. Better Cheddar has a fantastic assortment of cheeses, crackers, nuts, olives, and spreads. We highly recommend a visit. All their cheeses can be tried so you can find the perfect pairing without guessing. The staff is also very helpful and knowledgeable.

Good cheese place and fun to shop at. They also sell French butter thats great for baking.

Fantastic variety of cheese. I love that they cut smaller pieces by weight so I had a great variety for a tasting board.

The only place in Kansas City where you will get cheese varieties greater than those at QuikTrip

Fantastic local store with speciality food items!
If you're a foodie, looking for an off the wall/unique ingredient or just enjoy a specialty cheese (and food!) store, this is your place. I went in looking for one ingredient for dinner and left with a large bag of goodies! I was able to locate black garlic here which I couldn't find at any other specialty store in the city, they have an impressive selection of hard to find cheeses, along with an array of specialty and locally sourced food items. I was able to purchase some locally made small batch vanilla extract as well as some of their own branded olives. Can't wait to return to try more of what they have to offer! Their staff was incredibly knowledgeable and helpful, too!

This place is incredible! If you love cheese it is a must. Their selection and variety of cheeses from around the world is awesome. We went to find something for a cheese and meat platter we were having that evening. We sampled many great cheese and brought home quite a variety. We were able to choose several spectacular Bleu cheeses a nice selection of goat and sheep both hard and soft. They had section for washed rind cheese and my son who enjoys those picked a very good one. They also had some nice meats in their deli counter and the non- cheese items were interesting and very unique. If you like your cheese this is the place.

I like this place, sells lots of cheeses from all over the world. You can try out varies kinds using the toothpick they provided. Staff are friendly and helpful. I am still exploring cheeses so when I settle on some specific kinds, I will come back. It’s slightly more expensive than the cheeses you find at grocery stores but it’s understandable.

I adore this place. If you’re making a charcuterie board, it’s a must. The employees are super helpful and will cut you pieces to size if the available selections are too big or small. And they have a lot of canned goods that are hard to find, like pickled Brussels. We go a few times a year and always enjoy our experience at either location.

The choices are amazing. Not only are the staff helpful as can be, they also have well honed palates. We only made it through one display area and already had an armful of what are currently our favorite cheeses. Well, until we go back and find new favorite cheeses. Don't stop at the cheeses though. The candy, crackers and jams are every bit as amazing. The Wilkin and Sons Green Fig Preserves may be the best Jam, Jelly, or Preserve I have ever had.

Great shop hidden away in Paririe Village shopping center. Cheeses, chocolate, sauces, crackers, specialty meats. They have a sandwich menu at lunch. Free samples of cheeses. Staff are willing to help with questions. Highly recommended

This a a great little spot to being g a date and pick put some treats for later or if you're trying to find that delicious special cheese for yourself. Plenty of local items from jams and jellies to candies and chocolates, pastas and sauces, teas and even some unique selection of snacks. Great stop in for a weekend of just getting out of the house

I don't live here anymore, but every time I come into town, I head to Better Cheddar. The cheeses are always outstanding, and I love that I can try before I buy. Best cheese shop around, and they also have chocolates/jams, etc.

Very quaint and comfortable and clean store. Excellent, friendly customer service. And an Incredible selection of cheeses, jams, jellies, spices, and other gourmet items! It was awesome!

Way beyond expectations.. if it's about cheese, it's there...

Super nice people! Amazing selection of cheeses and chocolates and the best sandwiches around... especially the #6 Cranberry Smoked Turkey sandwich! It’s my favorite.

Best cheese monger in the city. Lots of options from places up the road to across oceans. Knowledgeable staff and samples to make sure you don't get something you don't love.

In addition to a fine selection of cheese, Better Cheddar makes excellent sandwiches. Just had the praline smoked ham. Fabulous!

Excellent selection of cheeses and other gourmet items. Our favorite!

Awesome selection! Great customer service! Found exactly what I wanted! Will be back when I have more time to look around!

Matt helped me out a lot. He provided excellent customer service. I highly recommend this store!
