You are cordially welcome to visit the most delightful cheese house in the town centre of Gouda, the Gouds Kaashuis. Open every day! In the shop on the Hoogstraat/Markt you will find more than 50 kinds of high-quality, authentic farmhouse cheese. The name has become increasingly well-known not only to Gouda locals, but also to those in the area and visiting tourists. The owners, Sandra and Maurice, will gladly tell you the story behind the cheese and let you taste it. Don’t forget to ask for ‘Gouda’s Trots’ (Gouda’s Pride), chosen as the tastiest of all Gouda farmhouse cheeses. You will find this ‘award-winning cheese’ exclusively in this shop. Also the 2016 winner of the ‘Ouwe Snoepert’ (Old Sweetie) is there for you to try. These award-winning cheeses can only be found in the Gouds Kaashuis.

To experience the real traditional taste of Gouda, you can sample the self-made farmhouse cheeses. Every Friday, Maurice makes his own cheese at his farmhouse in Waarder, a farming village near Gouda. Your purchases are vacuum packed and labelled, so you can easily identify the cheeses you have bought when you are back home. In our shop you can find all the Gouda specialties under one roof.

The Gouds Kaashuis is well-known, not only for its many types of cheese and Gouda products, but also for its original gifts and pleasant cheese tasting sessions.

Open 7 days a week.
