I do not like blue cheese. I'll get that out of the way first. But Rogue Creamery with their world renowned cheese? There's no way I could resist visiting. On a weekday morning right during opening, as soon as I opened the front door, I could smell funky blue cheese wafting through the entire shop. Rogue Creamery doesn't make many types of cheese - just a couple of blues and cheddar, nestled in a single refrigerated display case, but they also offer other cheeses from several different outside suppliers. To complete a cheese plate, they also sell an assortment of charcuterie items like jams and honeys, and plenty of items in the fridge. Of course, since we were traveling, we couldn't exactly buy much, so we went with one of their famous grilled cheeses: Classic Rogue Grilled Cheese ($8) - This sandwich includes a drizzle of honey on both faces of bread followed by a sprinkle of blue cheese. and then a veritable mound of cheddar, which is then sandwiched together and pressed in a panini press. The amount of cheese included creates an awesome cheese stretch. The sandwich is rich and fatty, and the bread, cheese, and honey blends creates a somewhat salty, funky and sweet bite. While the bread is toasted, I don't believed it's buttered, so it isn't that crisp. I'd like to see some additional crunchy elements in the sandwich - perhaps some toasted nuts? I dislike blue cheese immensely, but it's surprisingly mild and sweet in this sandwich, being blended and balanced with the cheddar. Would I get this sandwich again? Probably not, due to the blue cheese, but it was great to try! Rogue Creamery Rogue Gold Pepper Spread Spicy, 8oz ($7.25) - This seems to be Rogue Creamery's version of pimento cheese, colored orange by addition of plenty of red colored piquillo peppers. That adds a delightful mild spiciness along with a flavor that is kind of fruity and very peppery, different from pimentos. The cheese is high quality and there isn't any liquid precipitating out of the spread. It's easy to spread while still having plenty of soft cheese shreds. It's a great replacement for pimento cheese and I ate most of it spread on biscuits and baguette slices. (5/5) PS: Make sure to look at the best buy dates. The first couple of containers in the front looked kind of funky with oils/liquids precipitating out of the cheese. Turns out those were expiring/best by the day I went. Further back there were much fresher looking ones packed the previous day, which is what I chose to buy. Note: Do not follow google directions for parking - instead, the parking lot is a little bit to the South, right in front of a wine tasting bar and bakery. Bathrooms - Single unisex read more

Wow. This place is so amazing. Stopped in for lunch and perused the small, neat store. I got a grilled cheese (the #1) and tomato soup - it was heavenly. Staff told me it's 2/3 cheddar, 1/3 blue, and honey to give it some sweetness. They also showed me their trophy for best blue cheese in the world - so cool! I sat outside and enjoyed my meal on the little table. I'll definitely be back again when I visit Ashland. read more

The most incredible, delicious cheese you will find. We literally only found out about this creamery after seeing a sign on the side of the freeway and ended up stopping by two weeks later on our way home. 100% worth the diversion. You can come here and eat a meal, get food to go, or take some cheese with you. They had two different grilled cheese options, so naturally we tried them both. The classic was of course delicious - fresh, flavorful cheese with those perfect cheese pulls. While I'm not a fan of fig, we also tried the special grilled cheese that had like a fig jam on it - was pleasantly surprised by how much I enjoyed it even with the figs. The sweetness complimented the cheese just right. And they also have tomato soup - delicious and a must with any grilled cheese. Definitely take home some of their cheese. We grabbed some of their special Rogue River Blue cheese. Not available year round, but it is the best blue cheese I've ever had. If you like blue cheese, this is a must buy. Staff here are absolutely wonderful - so friendly! Great stop for any cheese lover. We don't live local but wish we did so we could stop by again for more of their incredible cheese. read more

Saw this place on our drive up to Seattle and was intrigued. Apparently they have a very storied history about being one of the leading creameries in America. So stopped by here on a whim on the way back home, and glad that we did. Got the grilled cheese with the tomato soup as everyone recommended. And honestly one of the best grilled cheese I've ever had in my entire life. Also had to get some of the Rogue River Blue Cheese to take home, which is a limited release blue cheese (that I didn't know at the time was highly renown). After the first bite, it definitely earned its fame. Delicious. If you're ever around the Medford area and need a quick bite, I highly recommend the pit stop. read more

Tasteeee Rogue River blue cheese and spread. Service was also outstanding . I got to try 4 different varieties of cheese and ended up buying 3 types. We stopped by on a Sat, so it was not packed w customers and we were able to take our time inside the store. We drove out RV, so there is parking on the right side of the store on Front St. Definitely worth the drive to experience this World class cheese awardee from 2019-2020. By the way, most of the cheese are all organic. read more

A cheese shop putting out some of the best grilled cheese sandwiches on the planet. We came to Central Point OR for one reason and that was this sandwich. Totally worth it. It's grilled to order and hot off the sandwich press. Filled with mild & slightly nutty cheddar, Oregon Blue cheese that's very mild and ultra creamy, and then drizzled with some local clover honey to create that magic in every single delectable bite. It's warm, gooey, cheesy, pungent, creamy, and sweet. Definitely one of the best things I put in my mouth in Oregon. The shop is filled with other goods as well, basically everything you'd need for an epic picnic. Local cheese and other cheeses from around the world. And there's a window allowing you to see the production itself. Overall a wonderful stop and if you happen to love cheese you might want to add this to your Oregon list. read more

Rogue Creamery - The #1 Classic ~ cheddar with Oregon blue cheese & local honey. AMAZING! - Cheese Shops Near Me - Central Point, Oregon

Long overdue, but we were getting quarterly cheese boxes from Rogue Creamery for a couple years, and they were so good. The subscription was on the pricey side, but we treat ourselves when it comes to nice/new cheeses - and the board were well worth it. We specified that we were more interested in blue cheese and cheddar, and they did a great job with our options. Our favorites were the caveman blue and tk. The marzipan figs were also good, and w had fun looking up blue cheese pairings like hazelnuts and apple. Highly recommend! Wish we could check out their storefront in OR. (We're based in CA). read more

We needed some blue cheese so headed over to Rogue Creamery. Always the best blue's around. The staff are always helpful when trying to choose a couple of cheeses. They not only offer their own cheeses but other favorites. We also like that they support other local businesses such as wineries and candy makers. If you want a good grilled cheese sandwich they offer those also. They are small but tasty. It is a small shop but they have a lot of items to choose from. read more

I ordered some cheese online to ship to my bosses wife in Texas. UPS rescheduled the shipment, so the cheese was spoiled by the time it arrived. Molly took care of everything and replaced the order, with a different shipping method. The cheese was delivered and enjoyed. Molly took 100% care of me and my order. I will gladly send more of their incredible products to my friends and family. read more

Food: 5/5 Price: 5/5 Service: 5/5 Ambiance: n/a Food:5/5: Wow.....more like OMG. I ordered the classic #1. Which is a grilled cheese. My mind and my tastebuds were blown away. This place makes their own cheeses and is known for their blue. The sandwich I had was a perfect grilled cheese. It was oozing with flavor. The cheese has a blue like creaminess but it does not overpower. You even get a hint of sweetness in each bite which is amazing. This was the best grilled cheese I've ever had in my life. It was one of those, it's so good I almost cries moments. Price: 5/5: for a sandwich, some blue cheese to go and a couple other items I only paid about $25. Honestly I would pay thst for the sandwich alone. But thankfully it's no where near that price. Service: 5/5: friendly staff, knowledgeable and also free samples! Ambiance: we did not dine in, we had to take it to go. However their patio is dog friendly which us always a plus. Overall: I might just drive from LA just to eat this sandwich again. read more

I YEARN FOR THIS GRILLED CHEESE!! We were in Ashland for the OSF and before we hit the road back down to San Francisco we had to make a pit stop at Rogue Creamery. Wife and I love cheese and we don't mind it FUNKY ;) It's been a week and I still think about this grilled cheese. Look, it's not covered in gold leaf, it doesn't have truffles and it doesn't cost $25 --- it's a freakin' deliciously approachable and affordable grilled cheese and we LOVED IT! Cute cheese shop/facility filled with tons of pre-packaged picnic items; including wine/beer. There's also a large window so you can watch them make the cheese! The staff were welcoming though I wish they were a bit less modest about their cheese. Not that I needed to be sold on it but as a first-timer I would have loved a more thorough run down on the whole operation and glorious selection. A regular walked in and was offered a sample, while the newbie (that's me) was left wondering which cheese(s) to pick. Neither here nor there, we had a great cheese experience. There were three grilled cheeses on the menu and the third was sold out (bummer as it had fig jam on it, mmmmm), so we opted for one of each of the other two (see pictures, Classic & Hopyard). At an average $6/sando these were FANTASTIC. Loaded with cheese, perfectly toasted, oooey-goooey with a smack of blue funk! They are cut in half, making it perfect to share :) Washed it down with a cold pilzner which was the perfect palate cleanser. If it weren't 100deg out that day we definitely would have added a tomato soup to the mix (sounded yummy). HOT TIP - if you're getting cheese to-go, like we did, be sure to be mindful of the moisture/liquid whey that the blue cheese will release. We didn't realize this and let's just say the car smelled like blue cheese for a few days (I could see some ppl liking this, lol). To sum it all up --- award winning cheeses, amazing grilled cheeses and just a very necessary stop if you're passing through the Medford/Ashland area. Also, if you're not a blue cheese fan FEAR NOT, they have a selection of other cheeses notably their own Cheddars!! Happy Dining... read more

World's best bleu cheese?! Sign me up! This was one place we had intended to visit while down in the Medford area, but I never looked up where it was located. Fortuitously, we happened to drive right by it on the way somewhere else, so I made a quick U-turn and parked in the adjacent gravel lot. Obviously, we were going to leave with a hunk of the Rogue River Bleu, which we did; a half pound runs you about $22, but absolutely worth it! We also "rescued" some garlic cheese from the bin on the counter, purchased a handy cheese knife, some crackers to spread everything on, and a couple of beverages, placing them in the cooler for the four-hour drive home. Happy to say that everything made it intact, and was still as tasty, potent, and fresh as as stinky cheese can be! We've been slowly rationing it out on all sorts of things, including the BBQ pulled pork sandwiches we had last night. Is there anything the blue cheese doesn't improve?! Lots of other snacks and treats are available here, such as chips, honey, hot sauce and the like. Staff were very friendly, approachable and helpful, and there was no line to speak of, on our Sunday afternoon visit. An absolute must stop for any cheesehead! read more

Such a cute spot to grab some amazing cheese or artisanal, local items like honey and jams. The cheese counter is a bit intimidating, especially if you love cheese but don't know the names. Luckily, the people behind the counter are very knowledgeable, patient and excited to have you try some cheese. If you don't feel like getting some award winning blue cheese, there is a huge variety of cheeses and accompaniments in this shop. I thought the pricing here was great too. We bought A LOT of items for our 3 day stay in Grants Pass and I was shocked when it was only around 100 bucks. Wish I lived here so I could build my cheese boards around what they suggest. read more

My coworker recommended that I try the grilled cheese sandwiches here and swears their the best. As someone who loves blue cheese a lot, this grilled cheese lived up to the expectation. This was not a healthy post-hike food option at all, but delicious nonetheless. I only regret not having this with their tomato soup, as I'm sure the acidity from that would've helped to cut down the richness from the grilled cheese. I'll be back again for that combo! If I recall correctly, there are only two grilled cheese options: one is with blue cheese, and the other is with their cheddar I think--an option for those who don't like blue cheese read more

Probably the most extensive selection of Rogue's blues you'll find. Prices are unreasonably high, given that this is the source with no/minimal costs of middlemen, transportation, distribution, mark-up, etc. Also sold here are cheeses from around the world, also at exorbitant prices, as are other wares of wines, jams, crackers, etc. It's all priced for a captive audience.

Hands down the best grill cheese I've ever eaten! We shared two different ones: the cheddar and blue cheese and the cheddar, fig jam and onions. Both were delicious; generous fillings and perfectly toasted. Totally recommend this place! They also have a deli counter of cheeses which will no doubt entice you to bring some home; we got some blue cheese after sampling a couple different ones. The worker was very pleasant and knowledgeable and we enjoyed hearing about the different cheeses. There's also a store and some interesting wall frames of the history of the creamery. Enjoy!

Friendly staff, nice selection. I'm trying to buy a new cheese every month. I like everything so far.

Upon recommendation, I visited a couple days before Christmas 2019. It was a pleasure to be a customer of theirs. I might have been one of the only out-of-town visitors that afternoon. It seemed like everyone else kind of knew what they were doing. That said, a gentleman was offering samples of cheese and answering questions from the others. The store area was a bit cramped for the amount of customers, but it was the holiday season. I found all of the cheese samples to be most excellent! They had crackers and some fruit jam spread to pair with the cheeses. I remember sampling cheddar, and 3 different Bleu cheeses and loved each of them. I ordered a cheese sampler platter to go, and also a half pound of their international award winning Rogue River Blue cheese. Both were a hit at our family festivities. They also carry local honey and some local wine, but I didn't spend much time looking at their selections. I promise to visit during normal off season times and get a better look at all that they have to offer. But for now, check out their website for a complete listing of their products. read more

This is the place for award winning Blue Cheese!! Their Rogue River Blue is wrapped in olive leaves and aged to perfection and is sold at only select stores and always OUT of it. This trip, I swung in and behold! They had some. I snagged two good sized pieces and went to the counter and exclaimed "Do you know hard it is to find this stuff!?!" The gent laughed and said at this point, they were the only ones that had any and that was all they had, and theY make the stuff! Yes. That is how good it is. He put an ice pack on the pieces and put it in a bag and instructed me to keep it right side up for the trip home. If you are a lover of cheeses, especially Blue, go! If you can't find any of the Rogue River, try their Crater Lake Blue Cheese which is another winner. read more
