Cabot Creamery: Where all that awesome cheese comes from
I still enjoy Cabot cheese!! I wish they had kept the visitor center there with the tour option. Are there other options for cheese? Of course. Did the cottage cheese fail after moving away from open tables? Oh yeah, IMHO off a cliff it went.

🚗 Easy Access

Any open cheese farms?
My gf and I will be in Vermont this weekend to fill up on maple syrup. We are also huge cheese fans and have been wanting to hit up some of the independent makers. Are any farms currently open for tours or is that more of a warm weather thing?

What Travellers Say
Reviews Summary
Visitors praise the Cabot Farmers' Store for its wide selection of award-winning cheeses, generous samples, and friendly staff. Many appreciate the opportunity to discover new flavors and purchase Vermont specialty items like wine and jams. Some found the cheese selection to be heavily cheddar-focused and not to their personal taste.
"The cheese shop is large and nicely decorated and they offer some samples to try. They also surprisingly have a small but decent wine selection at reasonable prices. The cheese itself was not good at all to my taste. Among the 5 kinds I tried I wanted to purchase 0 of them and even though I like British cheddar, their cheddar did not match my taste unfortunately"
Alexey Subach
"We visited the Cabot Creamery while traveling in Vermont. I was pleasantly surprised with the vast selection of cheese and other items available. Since where we live on a few varieties are available.
It was nice to try a few additional additional ones and some pairings to go with the cheese. We definitely enjoyed visiting and shopping here. I definitely recommend stopping if you are in the area."
Mark Soileau
"I personally love that Cabot has their own shop! I’m not from the area and it’s nice to see a brand I’m familiar with, but as a store! I had no idea they had so many different types of cheese. Here, you can get them all! They also have merch, wine, samples, a full cheese case with other local cheeses, gifts, etc. a great little stop when in the area."
