Why did you rebuild your facility in Tillamook?

The old building for visitors in Tillamook was more than 60 years old. It held a lot of memories for us, but we are excited to have a new space that is bigger, more interactive, and has more unique features for our guests to enjoy. The new facility also includes much needed “back of house” upgrades to help the Tillamook Creamery run more smoothly.

What changes were made at the new Tillamook Creamery?

Some of the new features include:

  • A larger dining area with more indoor seating and a spacious outdoor covered patio for visitors to enjoy year-round.

  • A new menu, showcasing Tillamook products and other high quality, real food ingredients, including pizzas, our favorite grilled cheese sandwiches and much more. The new menu will also feature wine and beer from the Pacific Northwest.

  • An expanded Tillamook Ice Cream counter, available for indoor and seasonal outdoor service.

  • A large retail space featuring Tillamook products and high-quality gifts and souvenirs available for purchase all in one, easy-to-shop area.

  • An enhanced viewing experience of our cheese production and packaging operations with better acoustics and exhibit signage, as well as a small theater space where visitors can view short videos about how Tillamook products are made.

  • An in-depth farm exhibit where visitors can learn about cows, dairy technology, and life on the farm.

  • More samples than ever before!
