Our story

From a catering menu to a storefront on 72nd.

The Savannah Cheese Straw Company is a unique culinary gem nestled in the heart of Savannah, GA, creating artisanal delights that have captured the hearts (and taste buds) of snack aficionados far and wide.

Founded in 2018, but with a rich legacy spanning two decades, this locally-owned and operated company is the brainchild of Katie Burgess. The journey began long ago when the straws first graced Burgess's catering menu, quickly becoming a crowd favorite. Fueled by the demand for these slightly spicy, savory snacks, Burgess transitioned from catering to full-time cheese straw production.

Whether paired with a cold beer, a fine wine, or your favorite beverage, they add a delightful crunch to any occasion — from picnics and tailgates to elegant charcuterie boards and cocktail parties.
