Bright Cheese & Butter was established in 1874 by a group of local farmers who realized they had a surplus of milk each month from their livestock. Since then, not much has changed. By the turn of the twentieth century, cheddar had become Canada's second largest export and there were 1,242 cheddar factories in Ontario alone. Bright Cheese is the oldest remaining of these cheddar factories and we haven't even moved... We're in our original location from 1874! To this day, we are still providing quality dairy to the Ontario region. We are well known for our all natural, naturally-aged cheese made with 100% local milk.
The variety of cheeses is spectacular. They have the best brie that we have ever tasted and we have (unfortunately) tasted a lot. The Handeck is firm and nutty and the award winning 5 Brothers goes with anything. Definitely worth the trip.Read more

This is the best and most reasonable cheese shop outside of Toronto where the other ranch of the Global Cheese in Kensington is just as good. It is a wonderful experience and if you can not get to France this is a great substitute. Those in charge are always charming and generous with their samples!! Just do not go with a full stomach!!Read more

Try our Montasio cheese which when fresh is very mild with a nutty texture & develops a rind as the cheese ages with the flavour getting stronger.
When aged longer it takes on the characteristic of a fine parmesan & can be grated or just eaten on its own. Our cheese is pure, natural and with no additives. Providing you with the quality of cheese you and your family deserve.
Excellent and friendly customer service. Awesome cheese made on the premises. It's my go-to for montasio cheese. Such a buttery flavour. You have to go and try it. Read more
