October Cheesescapes Eatery Hours 🗓️

10/02/2026

A HUGE thank you to the Greater Freeport Partnership for helping us celebrate Cheesescapes with such a special ribbon cutting! ✂️🧀 We are so grateful for everything you do to support local businesses and our community.

And thank you to all of our friends and family who joined us for our soft opening, and to everyone who braved the rain yesterday for our Grand Opening!

I am especially grateful to my family for all of their help and support in getting the store open. A special shout-out to my talented fiancé, who helped with the woodworking and cabinetry and helped bring this vision to life. And a huge thank you to Jen Busser for all of her hard work and for being my right hand at the shop. I truly couldn’t have done this without all of you!

The support we’ve received from the Freeport community has been absolutely incredible, and we truly appreciate every order, kind word, share, visit, and bit of encouragement.

We’re still finding our rhythm and ironing out a few kinks, and we appreciate everyone’s patience so far as we settle into this new chapter. We’re so excited for what’s ahead and feel incredibly lucky to be doing it right here in Freeport.

I just wanted to send a huge thank you to everyone for all the likes, comments, shares and follows regarding the new shop! ❤️

Opening a shop is equal parts exciting and “what have I gotten myself into?” 😅 But, all of your support has meant more than I can put into words and I am so grateful to be apart of this community!

I can’t wait to meet you all in just a couple of months. Stay tuned! 🤗

Cheesescapes: Eatery, Provisions & Catering

The lease has officially been signed for the future home of Cheesescapes at 30 W. Stephenson St. in Downtown Freeport!

The storefront will feature a cozy lunch eatery serving fresh sandwiches, wraps, salads, soups, baked goods, and thoughtfully prepared grab-and-go favorites—including specialty salads, house-made dips, and our signature cheese & charcuterie offerings.

You’ll also find a curated selection of specialty provisions, including premium olive oils, aged balsamic vinegars, artisan crackers, gourmet pantry staples, cookbooks and beautiful, seasonal hosting and entertaining pieces. We are also looking forward to welcoming you for charcuterie styling workshops and other special events, too!

Behind the scenes, the commercial kitchen will continue to serve as the home of our Cheesescapes catering operation while also becoming the production hub for pretzels from Freeport Pretzel Co. that we’ll have baked fresh and available daily! 🥨

We’ve got plenty of work ahead over the next few months as we transform the space, and we’ll be sharing the renovation journey along the way. Stay tuned for updates—and, of course, our official opening announcement!

We can’t wait to welcome you through our doors in a couple months! ❤️🧀✨
