    An Oregon Coast must do!

    Chances are that you came to the Oregon Coast to enjoy the world class scenery. And while you shouldn't miss any of that, you also won't want to miss out on this educational, fun and tasty stop in Tillamook. We hadn't been in about 5-6 years, so were excited to get back. The self guided tour is fun for newcomers, but we've seen that so just walked over to the cheese samples. It was late in the day and not too crowded so we were able to get several different samples. Then came the shopping. We love their cheeses and the gift shop sells some that we can't find in our local stores, we we loaded up on some of the less common cheeses. Finally, comes the stop at the ice cream shop where we each got a huge waffle cone. For $5, it was totally worth it. So for food and fun, make this one of your stops on your coast itinerary.

    Some of the best Cheese

    Stopping at here, is a must for family road trips down the coast. The remodeled/new visitor center is more spacious and open, but I do miss the charm of the older one. Lots of cheese and many exclusive items to the factory, but expect on most to pay FULL retail pricing for most items. Lots of Tillamook Cheese branded souvenirs and cheese related items available for purchase and of course cheese samples. I missed when the samples were more varied than the pre-packaged samples they had during our visit, as what they are had were prepackaged snack sized items that are available at many retailers for purchase, so you are getting to try anything new as a result. Watching the cheese work in the factory line is always enjoyable, and will have more activity on the line during the week, instead of the weekends where staffing is lower in the production lines. Can get VERY busy on weekends, and parking can be at a premium as traffic/visits are much higher on weekends, Budget at least 30 minutes to an hour to get a fully experience with your visit, Also.... buy some cheese to take home!

    Cheese, Ice Cream, and other snacks - what's not to love

    We took in the Tillamook Creamery and factory history. We went to the market and had to purchase cheese curds! We chose smoked cheddar cheese curds. We shared with our friends. Nice to have snacks when travelling in the car. Of course, we had to visit the creamery and share an ice cream cone. We chose to share one of the seasonal favorites only available for a short time. It was delicious!

    Not what I anticipated

    Really expected more. I get it that folks don't always work, but we saw ONE worker on the cheese line. Would have been much more fun to see the machinery and workers in action. The rest of the self-guided tour was ok, but probably best suited for children. Free square of cheese good. I guess $10 isn't UNreasonable for 2 scoops of ice cream, but more than we usually pay in our hometown. It was very creamy but when I look at buying it in stores, the price is unacceptable to me. just my opinion.

    Cheese! Yogurt!

    We were experiencing a very rainy day and needed a plan B and this turned out to be a lot more interesting than I would have imagined. Great self guided tour with good views of production facility. Loved the free cheese samples. Felt compelled to try an ice cream flight. Not bad, but i think their cheese and yogurt is better than the ice cream. Their coffee yogurt is one of the best I’ve had. Nice retail area with all sorts of things available for purchase. Beautiful facility and good story. Glad we went.
