    EAT . DRINK . SHOP . LEARN

    The Cheese School of San Francisco is the only independent institution of its kind in the nation. We are many things: cheese shop, cheese school, event space, and are also great caterers. Our philosophy is “eating is learning”. We will treat you to a cornucopia of education and tasting events, both professional and informal.

    - Kathleen Powers

    "Mac n' Cheese Please!"

    catering

    “Tell me what you eat and I will tell you who you are.” - Jean Anthelme Brillat-Savarin

    We agree with French Gastronome Brillat-Savarin (and btw, you must try the cheese named after him!) All of our catering is inspired by the ancient traditions of cheesemaking and the bounty of our seasonal California cuisine. Join us on a journey of good eating!

    We create artisanal platters, host private events including private classes, private dinners, team building, and array of culinary adventures.



    weddings

    Memorable, joyous, and above all delicious. Let us host your rehearsal dinner, intimate wedding reception, morning after brunch, or provide you with the best wedding cake made of cheese that you could imagine. If food is what brought you two together, we're here to seal the deal.

    Let us help you celebrate your love and commitment.

    please inquire
    team building

    We’ve seen it time and again – nothing brings colleagues together like realizing they do actually like goat cheese, they can make their own mozzarella, or they’ve competed and crowned a champion pizzaiolo Our private classes are an easy-peasy-mac-and-cheesy way to treat your team of 8-40 people for an afternoon of great food and charming company in our private venue with views of the bay.

    go ahead, inquire
    private dining

    Sure, we're cheese lovers. But our love of food doesn't stop there, and that is why we offer private dining and full catering services. We love hosting client dinners, weekend lunches, reception-style parties, and elegant seated meals in your home or at our beautiful venue in the heart of San Francisco.

    private classes

    A private class is a delicious way for groups of 8 to 40 people to learn about cheese and other foods, bond with friends and family, or celebrate a special occasion. We’ll host you for one of our signature tasting classes, or get guests cooking with a hands-on class. Our catering team would be delighted to round out your event with a full meal.

    parties

    We guarantee that a cheese bar – fully stocked with top-shelf artisan cheeses, charcuterie, antipasti, and passed appetizers – at your next soiree will wow even the most jaded, and give your friends something to talk about for parties to come. And if you’d like, we will tutor your tasters on the real difference between Gruyere and Comte.
