Point Reyes Farmstead Cheese Co

Cheese was so yummy ended up buying several for hikes in the area. The Toma was the hard cheese for me but the Quinta was equally amazing as a spreadable cheese. Will mark this place as a regular stop on cheese trail to repeat as the cheeses are as tasty as the views and relaxed area with planters was a nice place to watch the happy cows

The cheese tasting was totally worth it. We did the cheese lover package with farm tour for 4 people. The food was great, the setting was great and the person doing the tasting was great too. We loved their toma cheese, and they brought us a second plate. We also had to move the reservation due to weather and they accommodate it very well. Very good customer service.

It was great to be able to visit Point Reyes to see the farm and buy some of the terrific cheese from this dairy. The buildings are fairly far removed from the highway and it is a narrow road so don't drive too fast as you might hit incoming cars. They do have tastings that are held out on their deck. It's a pretty setting. Although we were not there for a tasting, they were kind enough to let us buy some of their excellent cheese. Well worth a visit.

The cheese tasting is a great experience. Excellent cheeses, great service, and the patio and gardens are very pleasant.

Loved the samples in the shop! Bought some cheese and a fresh baguette to take with us on our hike at local Point Reyes. Joanne was fabulous and shared lots of info with us! We can’t wait to buy more cheeses from this company!

Nice place that is set back from the road that takes a few minutes to get there on a one lane road. Not a big deal. The location is set amongst the farm so you drive through the cows before parking. Cheese tasting was nice but the outdoor area was closed for a private event. Enjoyable and good experience.

We have been many times for their brunches at The Fork on the farm. Chef Jen creates amazing food and the award winning cheeses are the delicious creations of their cheesemaker Kuba Hemmerling. Some favorites of mine are the Bay Blue, the Quinta, Toma togarashi, and their gouda.

Had an absolutely cheesy delicious time at this amazing place! First time I ever had a cheese tasting! So many types of cheeses and accompaniments we could barely finish it all! Also got some grilled cheese, fried cheese stuffed olives, and blue cheese + honey ice cream sandwich! I think the tomarashi cheese is my favorite! It's their signature toma with Japanese togarashi chili powder. 🥰🥰 I also got kisses from a calf! 💖 A super fun special Fridate

Point Reyes Farmstead Cheese is wonderful to work with. Everyone is so friendly and professional and flexible to your needs. A great company! I'd recommend them to anyone!

This was my third farm brunch at Point Reyes Farmstead. The experience is not cheap and it is certainly worth every penny. The brunch begins with unlimited cheese. You help yourself and it is impossible to decide which cheese is your favorite. What stood out to me this year was the way in which the cheese was paired with fruits, nuts, spreads that enhance the flavor profile of the cheese. Example- blue cheese paired with a gingerbread cookie star *mind blown* The menu always begins with an assortment of baked goods, followed by a salad, then an egg dish, and dessert. Every course features their cheese. The baked goods assortment this year was Cinnamon Swirl Apple Bread + Whipped Clover Butter (GF), Savory Garden Squash & TomaRashi Rolls, Roasted Frog Hollow Pear and Chocolate Scones (GF). The scones were the standout. My favorite dish of the day was Star Route Lettuces with Roasted Apple Vinaigrette & Original Blue Delicata Squash, Pears, Pomegranate & Pepitas. I asked if I could have the chefs salad dressing recipe and was shocked to learn that it was simply Apple cider vinegar mixed with their blue cheese. *chefs kiss* The entree was Wild Mushroom, Greens & TomaProvence Frittata, Garden Herb Salsa Verde Autumn Vegetable Hash and Caggiano Country Breakfast Sausage. I thought the frittata was very bland which makes sense because Toma is my least favorite cheese they offer. A spicy salsa would have saved this dish. Dessert was Maple Panna Cotta + Whipped Clover Cream and Maple Pecan Cookie Crumble (GF). By this time the rain started falling and many guests finished their dessert and left quickly. We waited for the gift shop to clear out before we bought a bunch of cheese, almonds, Jams to take home. Thank you to this gem of a family owned business! We can't get enough and we were thrilled to learn that they will be offering tastings on the farm for the holidays. Stay tuned cheese fans!

What a wonderful experience! We lucked out on a sunny October day. The cheese tasting was delicious! I loved the spreads and the Quinta. The grilled cheese was good, made with an olive tapenade. The home made ice cream sandwich was well worth the order, but make sure you save room for it, it's huge! The servers were excellent. They had great recommendations and thoughts on the cheese. They even broke up the tasting with a history of the dairy. Very educational! Beware, there are several insects buzzing about. Be prepared to defend your food. I can only imagine how difficult this can be during the summer. Despite this, the dairy is beautiful. You're sitting outdoors and you become really immersed in the setting. Remember to book in advance and secure that reservation to guarantee such a wonderful experience.

Came up from Oakland on a Saturday to fill our picnic baskets. Yelp hours, Google hours, and website hours are all the same. The business phone remained unanswered the few times we called the days leading up to our visit. Arrived on Saturday and the place was closed for a special affair. It was unfortunate that with all the technology at our fingertips, this business could not notify their customers via any of their online business sites. When you have a business that caters to tourists in the area, it's important to keep folks abreast of the store hours.

Amazing! Point Reyes Farmstead Cheese was one of four creamery/dairies we visited on a roadtrip from SF to PDX. Before we got our platter we ordered a grilled cheese sandwich- it was amazing. Then the even better cheeseboard arrived. There must have been 10-12 cheeses to try, along with all the crackers, bread, etc. you'd want alongside. THEN they brought out four more cheese dips to try. SO MUCH CHEESE TO TRY!! Overall incredible cheese tasting experience. Lovely patio (with blankets to stay warm!), friendly and knowledgeable servers & hostess. Drive by the cows and beautiful views on the way in. Exceptional.

This was a beautiful venue but we did not get to explore too much as we had our pup with us and they are not dog friendly. They have a good variety of their cheeses, which are super delicious! We will have to visit another time without our dog.

What a lovely experience. The atmosphere was very nice you almost forget that you're on a farm. Staff was so nice and informative. They were able to explain the history of everything and answered all our questions. Cheese was excellent. Had such a great variety of cheese and other things to go with them. We ordered the grilled cheese and Mac and cheese in addition to the cheese plate and it was amazing. Getting to the farm was easy, the entire road is paved but it's just one lane and plenty of parking up at the building. Overall a wonderful experience and would highly recommend for any cheese lover.

It was a beautiful drive to get to this place. They overlook the Tomales bay and the narrow winding road leading to the store is just amazing. We got a quick overview of all there cheese and got to taste them too. We picked up a couple of cheese at their gift shop and we also got to see the dairy farm unclose. I would highly recommend this place for the scenic drive and to taste the cheese they make.

Our visit to Pont Reyes Creamery was somewhat atypical. We visited on a day that they are typically open but they ended up being closed due to a trade event. Luckily. We drove up the lane/called in and the woman on the phone was really sweet to open up the shop for us to make a few purchases. We ended up buying the snack box, truffle cheese dip, salami, and crackers to make one heck of a picnic down the road at the neighboring meadery. We even took a pamphlet with us to create our own cheese tasting experience and read through it from front to back. So glad she opened up the doors for us! I've had the creamery bookmarked for months ahead of our trip in anticipation. I surprisingly enjoyed the Gouda (crystallized and saltier than your average Gouda- in a good way) and the truffle cheese dip. Really, you can't go wrong with any of their cheeses. Note that typically only the store is open but for tasting you need to book in advance. This seems to be a common theme in the area. Definitely worth a stop even if it's just for the market!

We are fortunate that we have their blue cheese available on the East Coast. Their blue cheese is by far the best that I've ever had. Creamy texture and full of incredible flavor. Great on crackers, plain or in a salad definitely a winner!!!

Wonderful and sweet place ! Visited this location in the past although this is the first visit we enjoyed a reserved tasting . The staff are great , friendly, knowledgeable of the cheeses , dairy and history of family and area. We enjoyed our experience and will definitely come back and share with family and friends . The garden and patio views are beautiful.

I recently visited Point Reyes Farmstead Cheese location for my birthday. We booked the cheeseboard class and were pleasantly greeted by the hosts with champagne. We were able to taste the cheeses we wanted on our board before we entered the kitchen for the class. We had so much fun in this class. The property is beautiful and the personalization of the service is unmatched. I highly recommend visiting! We traveled 2 hours to visit and we were all very happy to have done so.

Stopped by to restock on our favorite cheeses. They have fun new varieties here and the prices are less expensive than local grocery stores. We also grabbed some delicious almonds and a beautiful cheese knife. This would be a great place for small gifts. Staff was very friendly on Thursday afternoon, we cannot wait to come back and try their cheese plate!

I cannot believe I have never heard of this place or been here. I would like to go back on a less hot day. My sister-in-law had pre-ordered a cheese platter - that was GINORMOUS. 9 kinds of cheese. I would say my one improvement for the plater would be some sliced bread in addition to the crackers and maybe a sliced apple. Too bad I didn't know that platter was coming when we ordered the mac and cheese (though a small portion for $5) and the fried olives (also $5). We also (despite my objections, with limited stomach space) BOTH of the ice cream sandwiches. (one was a blue cheese based one was fruity, Both were good, but we barely made a dent in them. Hot tip - bring a couple of tupperwares and some ice packs for your cheese leftovers. ALSO BYOB

Really cool experience for a work team outing! We came to Point Reyes Farmstead Cheese Company with a group of 7, and had made reservations for a cheese tasting in advance. The hosts were incredibly welcoming and took us to a large table in their cute patio area. From the patio, you have a pretty good view of the farm and its beautiful scenery. One we were seated, we were given two massive cheese boards with a fantastic assortment. They also provided wine glasses (we brought our own wine) and had no issue with our vegan coworker bringing her own dairy-free cheeses - so accommodating! We were given an explanation of all the cheeses, and every single one was delicious. There were a ton of leftovers, so some of us bought mini coolers and ice packs from their shop (only $10), in order to take the cheese home. After the tasting, our host took us to meet the baby cows - they were only 3 days old and SO sweet! Such a memorable and fun day.

A fun stop! The cheeses were fantastic! We bought three different kinds. Wish there was a video or cheese making tour. If there is, we didn't experience it.

Such a perfect Saturday afternoon with a delicious cheese assortment from their farm. You need to make a reservation in advance. It's BYOB so you can carry a nice bottle of wine, enjoy the cheese plate and some appetizers. Please do try their deletable cheese spreads and carry some home.

I love the Point Reyes cheese! I see it in the stores all the time and my gf brought me here to see the actual location of where it's made. The farm is actually kind of out of no where and really easy to drive by and miss if you aren't paying attention and drive past the small sign. The road is also really narrow but I loved that there are cows roaming around. When you drive up to the actual farm, there a tons of cows eating in the barn which you can walk up to. The store is really small and I think it's really funny how all of the employees say "this is it. It's just this fridge that is our store." The cheese is SOOO good. One of the best I've ever had. It's especially good buying it straight from the store when it's the most fresh. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Overall, really fun place to visit which isn't too far from the main point reyes area. Lots of places to walk around and see the cows and farm land. You can also schedule a cheese tasting session which is $45 per person.

Point Reyes Farmstead Cheese Company has food stands at farmers markets. their cheese is made from cow's milk. locale: grand lake farmers market (9/12/20) eats: Toma (cultured pasteurized cow's milk) 1#? (15) -2 years aged, creamy smooth texture. -definitely affordable -$7 slice looks 1/4 size of this chuck. take outs: -no samples available. just took a chance, got lucky, fab value

We had a Friday off so we decided to do a day trip to the Point Reyes area. We signed up for a Cheese Lovers Tasting Experience ($45 a person) the morning of and they surprisingly had an open slot for 1:30pm! When we arrived, we were seated in a lovely outdoor garden area (seating was spaced apart well). Alongside the cheese tasting, they had a tasty menu of other appetizers and bites. Here is what we ended up getting: 1. Cheese Lovers Tasting Experience Plate: It came with six different cheeses and lots of accompaniments such as spiced almonds, chocolate, dried fruit, crackers, pimento cheese, olives! It was the mother of all cheese plates! There is no way the two of us could have finished this plate. I think that a group of 4-6 could have shared the plate. I actually liked all the cheeses, everything was flavorful and different from each other. We ended up purchasing the TomaProvence to take home, it was delicious with all its mediterranean herbs! I had expected a guided cheese tasting, but the waitress did a quick intro to the cheeses and then you were free to enjoy! 2. The Fork Toma Mac & Cheese: Super creamy and a petite size which makes it a good side dish. 3. Charcuterie Board: You can't go wrong with Journeyman meat company (Healdsburg) salami. It came with three rows of different meats, delicious! 4. Farm Fresh Grilled Cheese: Outside of the cheese plate, I think this was my favorite. Delicious TomaRashi cheese (infused with togarashi spice) with kimchi. Amazing! Truly a worthy add to your next trip to the Tomales Bay/Point Reyes area. Also, you're going to have cheese leftovers so make sure you bring some ice packs to take them back home with you!

There are raving reviews from those who have booked tastings, tours, and experiences, but if you plan on just stopping by to purchase a few items, don't bother. Giving my review 4 stars because I'm sure the tasting experiences are fantastic, but I really had a 2 or 3 star experience. Overall I liked the vibe of the land (cows happily chomping on food, nice hills with a view), but when I walked into the main entrance, I didn't feel welcome at all. The employees ignored me, then when I finally asked for where I could purchase cheese at, they pointed out the "shop" (a small fridge with a tiny selection of cheese) at the back corner of a room adjacent to the front desk. Anyways, I bought something really quick (the Toma) and dashed out back to my car. Super uncomfortable in there. Don't bother coming here if you don't have a tasting or experience booked.

Ever watched those movies where the cowboy walks into the saloon, only to have the place fall totally silent once he steps through those swinging doors? That's what this place was like. Truly, one of the strangest interactions, retail or otherwise, I have ever had. I sought this place because their cheese is stellar! I pulled in, pulled up, straightened my hair in the mirror, walked in to sudden hushed silence as folks rushed to close the doors surrounding the corridor leading to their modest-looking cheese display. My celebratory mood immediately switched to one of startled confusion. A polite young woman watched my every move and appeared to do her utmost to maintain unflinching eye contact with me as any attempt at conversation I made was met with terse, monosyllabic, polite replies. Thoroughly creeped and now eager to leave these odd hosts to their solitude, I rushed to the exit and headed to the comfort of my car. That's when I lost my mind and did the ultimate! I pulled my phone from my pocket and snapped a pic or two of the lovely landscape! The otherwise reserved young lady rushed out the door behind me and shouted that I mustn't venture into the yards unescorted!! I looked down at my feet, firmly attached to the pavement of the parking lot, looked back up at the young lady, and in the meekest voice I could conjure told her I'd get out of there, and quickly! Did I mention that their cheese is fantastic? In the future, buy it from fine grocery stores just like me and the way I plan to from now on! The folks here do not like their business being disturbed by intruders who love their tasty wares. Point Reyes Cheese Employees, if you are reading this, please accept my apologies for barging in several hours before closing. Please accept the attached photo of your lovely estate as a gesture of peace!

Amazing experience with fantastic hosts. We absolutely love their cheese tasting and will absolutely make the beautiful drive back to visit.

Update: apologies for the late update. We tried some of their cheeses that they offered to make it right, and it was delicious. Thanks!

I came here for a work event, and while I enjoyed the cheese tasting, luncheon of grilled cheese sandos, soup, salad, and brownies, I was put off a bit on learning about the cows. I loved hearing how sustainable they are, their blue cheese making process, and how this is a family owned business - all things I love to support, but when learning more about the cows and their life cycle, it made me feel sad for them. I felt they danced around their explanations a bit of when the cow goes 'into retirement'. I wish we could've seen more of the cheese making facility part as we could only peer through a window. Otherwise it was a very enjoyable experience.

I've been debating for a long time whether I should post this review lol. It hurts me to give anything but a five star rating but I thought the whole experience was a bit lacking. I came here for a farm table picnic. This was back in May 2019 so things may have changed. I have been looking forward to visiting the creamery for SO LONG. And perhaps I had hyped it up a bit too much in my mind. We started off with an assortment of cheeses. Those were great of course. The main meal was family style, passed around bowls. It was basically grilled Caggiano pork sausages, cabbage salad with bay blue, and farro with spring peas and toma. The sausages were served with peppers, onions, and grainy mustard on bread. These sausages were ok. Not my first choice of protein. The cabbage salad was lacking in flavor... and The farro was also lacking in flavor and I wasn't a fan of the texture. I just felt the food was extremely lackluster and I wasn't satisfied. My group out of the 20 or 30 people, were the only people of color. lol. Since I arrived late, I wasn't even able to sit with my group. It was SO HOT. The picnic was outside and there wasn't enough shade. If you're going to visit, expect a LONGGGG drive and bumpy roads. It is beautiful though but I was extremely tired from the drive. You don't actually get to go into the cheese making facilities which I thought was the whole point of the tour. The most closest you get to the process is seeing the cows and learning how they live and how they're milked. The most interesting part of the tour was the blue cheese ice cream sandwiches that were brought out at the end. It was a blue cheese ice cream sandwiched between gingerbread molasses cookies. It was interesting but had a bitter finish and I wasn't a big fan. The cheeses were whisked away and I would have liked to revisit it after the tour. Overall I'm not sure this experience was worth the $45 and arduous travel. I still love their cheese though! I definitely would consider giving them another chance.

It sure was fun going to Point Reyes Farm-stead Cheese Co., to visit, learn, walk the land, see the cows and taste their Award Winnng Cheeses. We started in outdoor lounge area, where you can see the beautiful land and scenery of their farm property. We were invited to help ourselves to the beverages in large trough; filled with a LaGunitas IPA and apple cider. We were offered ice creme sandwiches. Choices were homemade chocolate chip cookie with vanilla ice cream and homemade gingersnap cookies w/blue cheese ice cream. I had the gingersnap coz sounded interesting. It was delicious and refreshing, I'm glad I got it. IPA was also a pleasant refreshment. Then we started our tour; easy walking, a little uphill, a little downhill. We got to see where the cheese factory is. We had a wonderful tour guide, CATHY. She was able to answer all of our questions, presented intriguing information about farmers work and delighted us w/her humor. I can't tell you everything about the tour - you wouldn't need to take the tour!! LOL Returning home was a wonderful travel via el coche throughout the coastal range of Marin County. Beautiful day!!

I tasted this blue cheese a few years ago, I think at a winery in Sonoma and have been craving it ever since ! Highly recommend trying it whenever you get a chance . Beautiful, creamy, deliciously pungent and a perfect blue cheese!

We did the cheese tasting on a flawless Friday afternoon on the stunning deck at The Fork. We ordered a beautiful cheese and charcuterie tray, olives, a grilled cheese and a bottle of bubbles. Our waitperson took such great care of us but lets us linger and relax. The cheese is phenomenal and we bought several wedges home. We were transported from our usual day to day and into the natural beauty of Pt Reyes and the farm. We finished our tasting and made a very short drive to Millerton Point where we took a short hike put to Tomales Bay. From there we just had to get some oysters before our return home. A perfect day for our family and our guests feom the east coast. They were blown away.

My friends and I went on a cheese tour here as part of my bachelor party and we loved it. They have tours every Friday starting at 1:30pm for $25 per person and the tour lasts approximately 2 hours. They started the tour by giving us a homemade ice cream sandwich, and the ice cream was so rich and creamy, but they only let us have one per person. Then we walked around the farm and even saw a one week old baby calf! The tour ended with a cheese tasting and there was so much cheese that I was able to get multiple servings. One of the cheeses they gave us was a 2-year aged gouda. It was honestly one of the best cheeses I have ever tasted so I ended up buying a block for around $15. They said they only sell that cheese on site at their farm so it's definitely worth it to stop by just to buy that cheese! The farm was a little hard to find because it has a small unmarked road off of the main highway and cell reception was terrible. But once you find the road, keep driving up the hill and eventually you'll see the farm.

A cheese tour!?!?! Just say yes, seriously!! I can't say enough good stuff about this tour. It was neat to see the process, understand its made, and get up close with the baby calfs. They're so cute! And of course the tasting at the end was what dreams are made of. I didn't even think I liked blue cheese until that day. Well worth it, highly recommend it!!

Point Reyes Farmstead Cheese may be one of my all time favorite blue cheeses if not one of the best overall cheeses. They operate their own farm and herd of dairy cows near Point Reyes in Northern California. Their facility is not generally open to the public, but the dairy opens their doors for tours and special events throughout the year and is located between Tomales and Point Reyes Station north of San Francisco. While most cheese makers use milk from many sources, Point Reyes uses milk from their own herd and makes the cheese at the dairy. This is similar to Estate Wines and does allow for more control over the process. The cows primarily feed off the local grasses which imparts a unique flavor into the milk and cheese. They are well known for their amazing blue cheese, but their recent Bay Blue (Stilton-like) and other options are also very good. Their Friday Farm Tour takes you through most of their operation with a lot of interaction with the animals and the process. At the conclusion, you get a generous tasting of their cheese products with ice cream sandwiches and the full line of cheese available for purchase. You must book the events far in advance as they are very popular. Everything was enjoyable about this place. Their facility is lovely and perfect for upscale events, but also down to earth on the business side tromping through the dusty feeding and milking operations. Even the long and winding road to the facility seems to slow everything down in a good way. Point Reyes cheese is top notch, and the farm tour and events match this excellence. I highly recommend the cheese and tour to anyone who loves that beautiful, stinky, and pungent blue!

What a wonderful way to experience an array of unique and delicious cheeses! They are well known for their blue cheese but the tasting included several other really good cheeses on a beautifully displayed tray with candied almonds and dried figs, etc. Additionally they have menu options with small dishes that feature their cheeses. The macaroni and cheese is YUMMY! Friendly staff and the natural beauty of the area make this a must do event!

Wonderful experience! First time here and will definitely be back. The cheese plate was amazing and so generous. Great views. Very warm and welcoming staff.

My first visit to this lovely location and it was terrific. The cheese board was so delicious, full of lots of cheese and tasty treats, and the service was excellent. The grilled cheese sandwich and mac and cheese just melt in your mouth. The outside entertaining area was picture perfect with the rolling hills and open air. This all made for a relaxing and inviting afternoon.

Cheese tour was fabulous. Delicious original blue cheese and the variety of different toma Cheeses. My fav was Toma truffle but all was very tasty paired with red and white wines. We got to see the farm and cows. We even witnessed a calf being born. Great experience and new appreciation for cheese making. I took my parents and the family. Everyone had a wonderful time. Great views of Tomales Bay from the farm. Highly recommend the tour. Well worth the money spent.

AMAZING tour and cheese! Great value for what you get. Right off Highway 1, the turn-off is easy to miss and suddenly you're on a farm. We loved the tour of the farm - it was very insightful and it's truly incredible how the business has grown. We also appreciated hearing about their sustainable practices. Then we tasted the cheese, which was delicious! Every single one was tasty. It's basically an all-you-can-eat cheese buffet and there was plenty for our entire tour. Highly recommend!

I am a mail-order client of Point Reyes Farmstead Cheese Company and I wanted to let the world know how highly I regard this company. Their product is fantastic, especially the Toma, blue cheese and cheese spreads. I had ordered one of their large assortments as a holiday gift for my significant other, and we were both blown away at the quality of the cheeses. Yes, they are a bit expensive, but for any entertaining or special event, these cheeses are exquisite and you would be proud to serve them. I recently re-ordered some of their products and there was a slight problem with one of the items; however, customer service person handled my issue with speed and extraordinary courtesy. I may not be their biggest customer, but they will have me for life.

Point Reyes Farmstead Cheese is perhaps one of the best selection of stinky cheese to be found. The owners are fabulous. I recommend that you stop by one of their special events. The Tiburon Wine Festival thank you for your excellent cheeses.

The cheese tasting is a total rip-off! The price is $45/person, which is quite high but we expected something extraordinary so we went as a group of 5, for a total cost of $225. The cheese was good but there wasn't very much of it and the accompaniments consisted of 5 olives and a dozen almonds. Charcuterie (meats) cost extra. They don't serve wine but charge a $20 corkage fee if you bring your own! VERY DISAPPOINTED!

I was there for a team event and we had cocktails and cheese on the patio. We got to sample some wonderful Toma, Blue, Original Blue and Gouda. Then we were served a wonderful meal in the dining room. The tomato soup with Toma grilled cheese crouton - was really good. I could have licked another mason jar full of this stuff. Then we had the garden fava leaf salad with edible flowers and original blue cheese - topped with radishes, carrots and spring peas. This was followed by the garlic and herb dry brined roasted Mar's chickens - served with Toma cheese polenta and roasted heirloom carrots and sauteed garden greens. The polenta was so flipping good. It was so addicting and so easy to eat...I could have polished off the whole bowl on my own. Last, we had home made coconut pound cake with fresh strawberries and whopped Clover cream. Everything was delicious and I would go back again and visit.

We had a great time cheese tasting and checking out cows!! This a fun place to go and taste various Toma cheese. The drive is really pretty and it's right along the Tomales Bay. Being wine if you want as they don't serve or sell it. For the price you get plenty to taste, we actually took a to go box!! Great day trip from the Bay Area.

We had a reservation for a cheese tasting on a Saturday afternoon and it was a great experience! You drive in through the farm (cows everywhere) and once you park in the lot, they take you back to a beautiful peaceful sunny (umbrellas for shade available) patio with plenty of space between groups. It's BYOB, so bring a bottle of wine if you'd like that along with your tasting. The platter they bring for the tasting has chocolates, fruit, crackers and of course the amazing cheese. Our server told us a little about each kind we were tasting, and it was a super pleasant time. Very clean facilities and a nice gift shop on the way out.

I planned a company event at Point Reyes Farmstead and it far exceeded my expectations! If you're looking for a beautiful space with amazing food, an unexpected education in cheesemaking and dairy farms, and some face time with adorable baby cows, this is your spot. The staff were incredibly helpful throughout the planning process and even connected us to the chef so we could plan a menu together. In typical San Francisco fashion, a bunch of people's dietary restrictions changed before the event so I didn't have updated information. Nikki, the hospitality coordinator, was so accommodating, relaxed, and made sure that everyone was well fed. I was so happy to work with her, she really made me feel at ease during what could have been a stressful day. Our day included a reception with five of their incredible cheeses, as well as sparkling mead from Heidrun. Then we broke into groups and did a farm tour which was definitely the highlight for me, especially when we got to get up close and personal with the babies! This was followed by an exceptional four course lunch on their patio which they decorated beautifully. Our team had such a special day and we hope we're able to partner with Point Reyes Farmstead again! Thanks for everything!

I recently tried their "Point Reyes Original Blue" crumbled blue cheese at the San Francisco Ferry Building farmers market. WOW!!!!!!!!!!! I wasn't even remotely planning to buy any sort of cheese. But after one sample, I could not possibly resist buying a little tub. We ended up having some of that blue cheese on sliced baguette that afternoon as our "late lunch" along with some pear slices. This could quite possibly be the most delicious blue cheese I have ever tried. I will steal a line from the bacon commercials you hear on the radio and adapt it as follows: "This blue cheese is SO good it will even make salad taste good. That's right, Salad!" The tub I bought has long since been finished and I cannot wait for the next chance to get some more.

We attended an event with Gloria Ferrer winery at the farm yesterday and it was so much fun! We were taken on a tour of the farm, in which we saw a newborn calf with its mommy and another mommy in the middle of giving birth!! The tour was educational and fun. Next we had dinner that was good

Point Reyes Farmstead Cheese Company's Fork meals are to die for! We have now attended two of their Farm to Table events, a dinner, and a brunch. Both were fabulous! Great setting, great food, great staff & interesting dining companions. It is well worth the money, and the trip out toTomales Bay. We attended brunch there on April 2, 2016. The sun was shining & out on the patio we indulged our taste buds with their creamery-fresh "Original Blue", "Bay Blue", Toma and mozzarella cheeses paired with Lagunitas Brewing Company's "Imperial Stout", "Cappuccino Stout", "Pils", and "Hop Stoopid." After, we were seated to a tasty, multi-course brunch featuring local, farm fresh ingredients. The salmon patties with poached eggs, asparagus, and spring peas was awesome. I highly recommend booking one of the Fork events. You will not be disappointed.

STEER CLEAR of this place!! My husband and I had taken part in a complimentary virtual tasting during Covid that was provided by our bank and enjoyed the experience as well as the cheeses which had been shipped to us in advance. We were happy to see that the farm was near where we were staying during our trip to CA so we booked a cheese tasting for us and our 3 daughters. At $45 per person we felt that the price was high but we expected a special afternoon enjoying the cheeses and accompaniments and learning about the cheese making process. We were shocked to see that the platter that we paid $225 dollars for consisted of just the cheeses, a grand total of 5 olives, 5 figs, about the same number of almonds, a few very small pieces of chocolate and some crackers. That was it - for that ridiculously high price there was no other fruit, jams, meats or bread. What was even more outrageous was that our waitress presented us with a menu that listed things like olives and meats for sale! Unbelievable! To top it off, we received no description of how the cheeses are produced and found out that the only cheese actually produced at that location is one of their blue cheeses. The others are produced in Petaluma. This "experience" is a total scam aimed at tourists. Don't make the same mistake we did- stay away from this place!

Have tried for 4 days to connect with the "hospitality coordinator"- left multiple messages for her. Two staff members told us how busy she is. Finally got her at 4:30 PM today ( she never called us back) and she says she's so busy she hasn't received our messages. No openings for "months" to have a tasting tour. No one answering the phones days ago could have told us this? No call back? Really crummy customer service!
