My son and I visited Sutter Creek. He loves the quaint and charming atmosphere. He's visiting from the east coast and wanted to visit the area before he left back home. The day was gloomy and quite a bit of places were closed. Not a busy time at all but still enjoyed our short walk around Main Street. He was looking for coffee and we stopped to look at the menu posted on the outside. We proceeded to walk in and immediately greeted (not a warm/friendly greeting) by an older woman who stated they were closed and walked all the way to the door to ensure we walked out. She essentially herded us out the door and as she was doing so I noticed two other ladies at a table who appeared to be eating. We didn't see a "closed sign" and when she walked us out she didn't lock the door from what it appeared or place signage to indicate they were closed. I truly felt a strange feeling that our brown skin caused her reaction. She was not warm and friendly and truly didn't have to walk us out since we had just entered and already by the door. I venture to this area often and have never felt out of place due to my skin color. This area is not known as diverse and this woman definitely made it a point to make us not feel welcomed. I won't be back just because of that. Know how to treat potential customers. I'll visit other places there but not this Cafe.

Great cheese! Though not a large selection, I prefer it that way. Some olaces you taste so many varieties your taste buds become numb. We love Sutter Creek and make the drive there every 2-3 months. Especially love the holiday season.

Stopped in for lunch on our way home from Murphys. Stumbled upon this cute little cheese shop. We did the cheese and wine pairing. The girls working were friendly and easy to talk to. We will be stopping by again when we are in the area.

I received a good education about different cheeses.

Great selection, love the samples, we dropped a Benjamin! ???

If you go to Sutter Creek, you have to go to the local cheese shop. Great selection and very good wine also as the merchant is also a local wine maker.

Very unique and very tasty cheese selection. They don't have your standard "off the shelf" cheeses like Monterey Jack. There were only maybe 20-30 different kinds of cheeses and the fridge wasn't packed, but what they did have was really good. They did have some diced up for tasting, so you can "try before you buy". If you like cheese, a definite must when in Sutter Creek.

My family and I were excited to go to this shop while in Sutter. Unfortunately we were highly disappointed by the rude staff. They barely spoke to us, handed samples in total silence and generally acted like they were far too good to help us. We overlooked the rudeness and purchased a few cheeses and other food items. All of the cheese was very good!

Sutter Creek Wine and Cheese Shop is such a fun place! They offer a huge variety of cheeses which they allow you to taste before purchase. They also have a wine and cheese pairing that is fun - so unique to anything we’ve done before. I highly recommend this fun and tasty experience to anyone traveling to or through Sutter Creek.

Very helpful with determine what to purchase. Cheese tastes available pre purchase so you can select what you like. Always pleasant and educational. Lots of variety!
Such a nice variety of cheeses from all over the world. Informative and helpful counter people.

This place was recommended to us by my mom but was disappointed by the one star reviews saying the owner was rude. I didn't want to judge the place by that alone so we went anyways. This place is so cramped which might not be that bad if he had at least one other person helping him but he didn't so he has a long line and only getting longer because he had to keep walking back and forth from the register to the cheese case which is not right next to each other. What really got me was that he wasn't even wearing a mask. This confirms that he is rude and inconsiderate of others. Will definitely never be going back.

We were visiting family members in the quaint town of Sutter Creek and during our exploration of the few shops that were open, we came across this cheese shop! What luck for us! Since we are cheese enthusiasts, we couldn't help but spend a long and leisurely time checking out their locally made cheeses with the humorous names. They also had a wine tasting bar, but we were only focused with the cheeses on display. It was fun taste testing a number of interesting looking flavors and trying to narrow our purchases down to three. The specialist lady staff member was very knowledgeable on their products and spent quality time with us answering questions and giving recommendations, even though the shop was pretty busy. Besides cheese, I found other fun products throughout the store, such as Miller wines, assorted spreads, crackers, breads, utensils, gift baskets, snacks and other hard to find items that would make nice gifts or souvenirs. I look forward to visiting this shop again!!!

Great cheese. The garlic jack is excellent!

This is a destination spot for me every time I go on a motorbike ride or drive with my family. They have great wine which my wife enjoys and such a wonderful variety of cheese. Very friendly and they even offer tasting of cheese to so you can sample why their wares are so worth the trip. They even help you pack it cold if you need it. Great service, good cheese...a winner in my book!
