Just about everything on the menu has cheese in it, on it, or beside it, starting with the delicious cheesy breakfasts. Order a traditional omelet such as a Denver, ham and cheese, or a Western and choose your favorite fromage to go in it and on it.

Another breakfast specialty is the croissant stuffed with eggs and cheese, and you can add bacon or breakfast ham if you want to.

Once lunchtime rolls around, the cheesy hits keep coming, with the Cheese Barrel’s world-famous cheese bread leading the charge. It’s homemade, hearty, and the perfect base to build a sandwich on or to have served on the side of a mouth-watering bowl of soup.

Just like the omelets, you can build your own sandwich, choosing from a selection of breads, meats, and - most importantly - cheeses. However, the menu also offers familiar favorites that include cheese, like the Rueben, the beef eater, a super grilled sandwich oozing with three kinds of cheese, and the Cheese Barrel’s own creation of jalapeno cheese and pastrami on marble rye.
