Well if you get the time, you should stop and check them out. The Brazos Valley Cheese store is located at the Homestead Craft Village. It's a cute little place with all kinds of shops and BBQ. The cheese shop has lots of cheese samples and meats for making a charcuterie board. There are also crackers, fresh baguettes and more. The ladies at the cheese shop were very helpful and had all kinds of insights into the cheeses. Overall a great stop and the cheese was wonderful... it will make a nice addition to a wine country weekend!

TLDR: Charming little cheese shop run by lovely people. Delicious grilled cheese at a reasonable…read moreprice. This shop is cozy and inviting. They sell cheese (obviously) but you can also get cakes and cupcakes. They have some souvenirs (including clothing) in the back as well. As far as food goes, they offer grilled cheese and soup. The grilled cheese was really yummy -- they use the right bread -- not too dense but a nice and fluffy base to absorb the butter. Got them for the kids but snuck a few bites. The woman that runs the shop was so kind and friendly. She was very welcoming toward us and our two small kids. Chatted with her about her enormous family! They do special events on some Saturdays with free samples.

Before leaving the Homestead Heritage area, we made one final stop at the Homestead Market. I'm…read moreglad we did because this place was the perfect way to wrap up our visit. The market is exceptionally clean, well organized, and beautifully maintained. Everything was neatly displayed, making it easy to browse without feeling rushed. Working behind the counter was Ms. Jenna. She greeted us with a warm smile and a friendly, welcoming attitude that made us feel right at home. She kindly let us know that if we needed anything, all we had to do was ask. We took our time wandering through the store, looking at all the unique items they had to offer. I couldn't leave empty-handed, so I picked up two bags of their chipotle-flavored pecans as souvenirs for my brothers. Whether they'll share them with anyone else is another story entirely. The Homestead Market is a really neat place and well worth a visit. I have no doubt I'll be back the next time I'm in the area. Maybe I'll see you there!

I'll be buying all my meat from these folks from now on!

I love the small store layout, so it doesn't feel overwhelming and the food is usually 10/10. However, while I understand they are pressured to be fast when checking out and that's totally fine. I hate small talk, I don't appreciate the cashier (one specific girl) throwing out items into the cart without a care. Things that you typically shouldn't just toss in Willy nilly and 9 times out of 10 she's extremely rude and gives nasty looks. I actively avoid her when she's on register.
