Nestled in the Ferry Building, Cowgirl Creamery offers a delightful selection of artisanal cheeses, perfect for parties or casual snacking, with scrumptious grilled cheese from their Sidekick café.
"Rooted in Marin and Sonoma counties’ farm-to-table legacy, Cowgirl Creamery only uses milk from nearby organic dairy cows. Their Mt. Tam, a soft-ripened triple cream, is unquestionably their most popular item. Its crème fraiche and salted butter notes make it the sort of cheese that pairs well with a glass of bubbles or cup of cocoa. For contrast, try it in the Cowgirl Classic collection that also includes the gruyere-inspired Wagon Wheel and bloomy rind Chimney Rock."
"Cowgirl Creamery is still open for takeout at the Ferry Building, and has always offered overnight shipping, but right now, there are some tempting deals. At the time of writing, they’re offering free shipping on the fan-favorite triple-cream Mt Tam, the best cottage cheese ever (no seriously), and more." - Becky Duffett
"It’s not possible to stockpile too much cheese during party season. This time around, Cowgirl Creamery, the Marin County cheesemaker, has debuted a mild, crowd-pleasing semi-firm cow’s milk cheese washed in hard cider. When purchased as part of this set, it comes kitted out with a cute wooden board, a knife, and crackers." - Becky Duffett
"Cowgirl Creamery is a cheese shop in the Ferry Building, and while you might not be willing to just eat a whole wedge of gruyere for lunch, going to Sidekick (their cafe next door) and getting it melted between two slices of sourdough with a cup of tomato soup is a very good idea. On weekdays, Sidekick also does raclette, which is just as much a spectator sport as it is a cheese delivery method. But when it comes down to it, you’ll really just want a grilled cheese." - Will Kamensky
"Maureen Cunnie has been producing award-winning cheeses such as Red Hawk, a washed-rind triple-crème, since joining Cowgirl Creamery." - Food & Wine Editors
