You can purchase in the gift shop and feed the animals outside. There's a donkey, goats, geese, and a few other others. I enjoy feeding them. The only problem this trip was I had my dog with me and he got a little crazy at the fence line. Part of the fence has chicken wire across the bottom but part of it doesn't and of course that's the part. My dog found it jumped inside. It was funny, not funny. Gift shop is great. I really miss going up and down the aisles and finding the pretzel sticks and samples of what's on the shelf. It was a good thing to look forward to and I enjoyed it. If you're in Tillamook, I would stop in. It's a great place for kids and picnic outside. There's also a separate candy shop on the premises. Great candy and some old school stuff that I had not seen in quite some time.

While passing through Tillamook, my family and I decided to stop by Blue Heron Cheese Company after…read moreseeing reviews mentioning their wine tasting, which really caught my interest. The property has a lot to offer, including a small petting farm, a gift shop, and an eatery all in one place. The paninis were especially delicious and definitely worth trying. As for the wine tasting, the selection was great and I still enjoyed the experience overall. However, the bartender wasn't very friendly or knowledgeable, which took away slightly from the experience. Even so, it was a fun stop with plenty to see and experience. I do recommend over other popular cheese factories in the area.

As a self proclaimed clam chowder connoisseur I take the hunt for delicious clam chowder throughout…read morethe PNW coastal area very seriously. Each beach town my husband I travel to, I spend far too much time reading reviews about clam chowder. If only I spent as much energy in other areas of my life as I do "internet-researching" clam chowder, who knows what I could accomplish. I must say that the clam chowder at Werner Beef & Brew is exactly what I have been hunting for. It is the perfect texture and consistency. It has a spectacular balance of clam to potato ratio, and the potatoes are cooked to perfection. They don't have too much bite, nor do they disintegrate into mush the moment they enter your mouth. The chowder itself was worth traveling from Rockaway to Tillamook for. It was even worth a more industrial view vs. an establishment with a more coastal and picturesque backdrop. The salad bar was on point. The variety of salad add-ins, dressings, and topping crunchy-bits were epic. It was a nice balance to the very rich perfect chowder I am already missing. I miss it. I miss the chowder. My husband also got the fish tacos, based on others' reviews and enjoyed every bite. I enjoyed their Dragon Fruit Cider, and he ordered one of their Meaty Bloody Mary's. If you are on the fence if you should order one, you should. You should get that bloody mary. The bloody mary then led us to purchase some of their salami and bologna. It was an elevated version of the sandwich meat my grandpa used with white bread, yellow mustard (off-brand), ice burg lettuce, and a slice of cheddar cheese. Mid-life has me craving nostalgia. It might be the hormone imbalance, but salami white bread sandwiches, here I come.

Date of visit: May 10, 2026…read more If you're visiting Portland, this is a bit of a drive, and can be harrowing for those that are not a fan of heights, but it is worth the trip to see their impressive operation and try some amazing dairy products. I was looking forward to the ice cream all day and it definitely didn't disappoint! I had a Salty Caramel Pretzel shake and it was quite possibly the highlight of the entire trip to Oregon! We did the self-guided tour and for the low low price of free 99, it was amazing. The large windows and clear explanation made it easy to follow the process from start to finish; can't say I've ever seen 40 pound blocks of cheese before! Before the ice cream, we split the grilled cheese and mac and cheese, both being very good. The fries that accompanied the sandwich though, were unremarkable. Why they don't serve them as cheese fries I will never understand. I wanted to go five stars here but the staff could be better. It's great that they seem to hire so much local youth, but there didn't seem to be anyone supervising or helping direct traffic, resulting in the indoor ice cream line being 15 people deep and the outside line being empty, with staff just standing around talking about their relationship woes (this I tell you from firsthand experience) instead of helping out in other places where it's needed. The cashier in the gift shop seemed to be personally offended that we were keeping her from her Instagram...

Great shopping experience @ Safeway in Tillamook, OR. !!…read more Friendly service and delicious drinks at their in-store Starbucks. We were lucky to find Christmas Blend whole beans in February as well! We requested them to be ground and the Employee happily obliged. This Safeway store was very clean, organized, and well-stocked. As you can see in pictures, we were impressed with their bacon selection, lol. I always try to buy local, so that's a plus. I also love their closed refrigeration aisles with glass doors, compared to open refrigeration. Consistent and efficient temperature control is key.

"I shop at Nordstroms not Fred Meyers" - Mac Dre…read more Mac Dre is trippin (RIP) I've never been to a Fred Meyers but good lord!! That store is fire!! I dont see how it can have bad reviews. Thats like a Nugget Grocery store, Target, Best Buy, and a Khols all wrapped into one and it also has a jewelry store that place is insane! Wish We had one of those back home. They had a nice seafood, bakery and deli spot. The service was good the person at the electronics section asked me if I needed some help. The whole place was just chill with the lights not too bright. They had lots of things on sale. They had a spot where they had Levis, dickies and Carnhart. Sucks for them that I dont wear dickies or carnhart. I'm from Northern Cali I stay in nothing but Ben Davis and Levis but they didnt have the size Levis in the color I wanted. Hands down this place is dope af!! But its hella far from home and 2 hours away from where I'm staying out here in Oregon.

Kelly Bayne: Very poor customer service and this last year…read moreout of our 15 years has been the most unfriendly store I've ever encountered. On top of accusing my son after his short visit, went in to buy two bags if ice for 4.50, gave the employee a 20. Bill , she didn't look at the bill nor finish the transaction before putting in her till. She took it as a 5. bill. After 3 or 4 times politely correcting her , she refused to realize she was wrong. Customer service and counting change is a basic common sense practice and a courtesy to the patrons. They wanted to wait until midnight to do their books and mail him his change. I'm sorry I wouldn't have agreed to that especially if I knew for certain what bill I handed over. Yes, my son was upset and demanded the correction. It was all on camera, it took two police officers, which my son was happy to stay while they called. After reviewing it did show he gave the 20, not a 5. Before all of that the employee accused him "you must do this a lot". Wow... The customer is always right..... I hope she's being re-trained or better yet let go. She obviously dosent like her job. It's the " owners" responsibility to have friendly customer service. It would not have cost the store anything if the employee did her job, we'll never set foot there, now that cost them.....

I told her that I was offended by the other individual's behavior, and she just shrugged. I paid for my gas, and asked for the corporate phone number. she gave me the store phone number. I reached corporate anyway. Hopefully nobody else will encounter this individual, and be scared to simply buy gas, like I was.
