St Kilian's Cheese Shop — Local services in Denver

I'll start by saying this place is absolutely amazing! I called up a few places around town because I was having a cheese party and this one impressed me right away. (Note: if you're a business, phone conversations make a huge impression- know what you're talking about).

I happened to be in the area the following day so I decided to pop in. I'm a visual person and I like to meet who I'm working with in person. Without saying anything, the gentleman who helped me on the phone was working and showed me photos of past trays he's done. Immediately, I was sold on a 'foodie' cheese tray he did for someone recently.

I loved his in depth knowledge of the different types of cheeses but also what other 'sides' I should have to do along with them. He also lent me a plate and tray without my asking nor did they ask for a deposit! He really helped my spread look amazing!

I felt that all the way around from the knowledge to the customer service to the selection available that this place nailed it. This is especially great when you aren't an expert and you are leaning on someone to help you make the right decisions. I will say that the other places I called were cheaper but, in the end, it was worth the extra money for the service and end...

Have been going to St. Kilian's since they opened 10 yrs. ago. Love this place and the unique selection of artisan cheese from all over the world. Ionah and Hugh will give you samples of cheese which you may be curious about and 9 times out of 10, the cheese is wonderful in my opinion. They also have pastas, the best butter for baking/eating, tapenades, jams, olive oils, aged vinegars, nuts, as well as a nice selection of pastrami and olives. The gelato they sell is delightful and I always leave w/great tips on how to prepare certain dishes, as Hugh was a chef at one time. I remember his restaurant, 'Greens Cafe' in Capitol Hill and politicians to rock stars to regulars would frequent the joint. I miss this little gem, but visited his restaurant on old south Pearl many years ago...

This cheese shop, conveniently located in the Highlands, was excellent! I came in yesterday looking for a few cheeses for the charcuterie board I’m making for a Super Bowl party. Earlier in the day, I had gone to a cheese shop near Sunnyside and was disappointed by the lack of product and crazy prices. So, I made St. Kilian’s my last stop before I gave up and just went to Whole Foods to find my cheese.

I was so excited when I walked in! Not only is the store packed with samples, but the team was incredibly helpful in guiding me on which ones to pick for my board. Every cheese I got was unique and delicious. And the best part? The prices were way more affordable than I expected, especially compared to the first cheese...
