Golden Ears Cheesecrafters

Once you try their cheese there really is no going back. Their chili Gouda is divine!!! We always grab a bag of their tomato soup to save for a rainy day. Absolutely delicious!

I have been in a handful of times at this point and the customer service is next level. Everyone that works there is so knowledgeable and helpful. Thank you SO much, it doesn't go unnoticed!!

Golden Ears Cheesecrafters has truly outdone themselves with their tomato vegetable soup paired with grilled cheese. Served piping hot, the soup boasted a perfect balance of tangy tomatoes and hearty vegetables, creating a comforting and satisfying flavor profile. Each spoonful was a delight to the taste buds, warming both the body and soul. Paired with their expertly grilled cheese sandwich, the meal was elevated to a whole new level of culinary bliss. Golden Ears Cheesecrafters has truly mastered the art of comfort food, and their tomato vegetable soup with grilled cheese is an absolute triumph!

Lots of selection for many delicious goods. Also had lunch here, it was really nice. And everyone was super kind. Looking forward to the next visit.

About a year ago I had the opportunity to go through the Golden Ears Cheesecrafters and I was thoroughly impressed. They make their own cheese and sell lots of really neat things for the kitchen and cool stocking stuffers. I do not live in the area, however last night I have the privilege of enjoying evening with the staff and owners. They are wonderful people who put more love and care into the delivering a fantastic product than anyone I know. Check it out you won't be disappointed.

Great people, great food, highly recommended. We had one of their signature charcuterie boards and everyone loved it. Their sandwiched and soup are also delicious =) Thanks again

Fancied some poutine so tried out this place. Gravy was really tasty and there was plenty of curds. Only downside is that it seemed like a small portion, but then my eyes are usually much bigger than my belly anyway.

What an amazing little place! We stopped in for lunch and shared their soup of the day (potato dill) as well as the classic grilled cheese with bacon added. The food was fantastic, the staff were all super friendly and welcoming, and the selection of drinks and treats was impressive. The food was served hot and fresh, and we enjoyed it on their rustic patio. We went home with some jalapeño havarti cheese, which was really excellent. Definitely looking forward to coming back with friends and family!

Cheese is delicious, I love fresh farm cheese and was so happy to find one so close to home. AND to top it all off they have Jersey cows, the best kind of cow.

This place is adorable, a cute little shop with a little kitchen/bistro on the side where you can sit down to eat. The little one convinced me to have a lunch date so I had the Jersey salad and he had the kids mac and cheese. Both were very good. They even have ice cream for dessert!

Will definitely be coming back for all my cheese needs 🥰.

I have lived so close to this place and never knew it was even there ! This place is definitely worth checking out. Everybody working there was super friendly and welcoming and very knowledgeable about all the questions I had on the cheese and milk they sold. They have a cute little kitchen with daily fresh baked scones and muffins. As well as full meals. My friend and I ordered the grilled cheese and cheesy tomato soup and it was probably the best grilled cheese I have ever had. The cheese was so rich and delicious. The Mac and cheese also looked very good and I hope to be able to try it next time I come . This place is also very easy to access for wheelchairs and there is lots of space for parking out front. I also noticed they had a heated deck which will be nice to have when the days start to get colder. I loved the experience and atmosphere here as well as the wonderful baked food. I will definitely come back soon to buy some cheese and try a new dish ! Highly recommend supporting and checking out this wonderful local cheese farm !

Great knowledgeable, welcoming staff. The products here are all premium quality. The brunch was tasty and so was the coffee. The cheese, Yum! The sausages, yum!

My wife and I stopped in for some cheese, being out of towners, we were assisted by a staff member named Ana. She was very helpful in helping us and super friendly. The cheese curd was stellar!!! Would love to go back and get more, I grabbed the smaller bag... next time it is at least 1 big bag 😁

The butter is sooo good. The cheese is sooo good. Cool store front with a lot of great food products. Also, their beer fest is the best!

We visited it as a family for the first time. Everything was great. All kind of cheese that you can imagine. We got poutine with butter , grilled cheese, Mac and cheese and all are amazing. Ice cream was nice especially in today’s hot weather.

Went here the first time after seeing on their website the aged cheeses they offer. Was surprised to find all the other products they carry and make. Summerland Sweets from Summerland, Republica Coffee from Fort Langley, jams and such from Salt Spring Kitchen Co on Salt Spring Island and The Preservatory in Langley, and honey/honey products just to name a few. They also have fridges filled with their own and other's products. Even a kitchen with sweet and savoury baked goods.
We got the Reserve Havarti and Basler cheeses, but couldn't resist a bag of their cheddar curds. We also grabbed some eggs from Avalon Dairy in Burnaby and Summerland Sweets Pear Butter.
The staff explained that the aging of the Havarti makes it naturally lactose free. The smell was mild and the taste was slightly bitter (which I liked) but then buttery.
The Peach Butter was amazing. It tasted just like peach pie. I could taste the lemon juice, and the ingredients listed 'spices'-maybe cinnamon and cloves.
We made poutine with gravy left from a previous steak dinner and Golden Ears Cheesecrafters cheese curds. I really recommend you try this, even if you use a bottled steak sauce. The curds are great for snacking too. Tried them with the eggs as well-they kept their texture instead of melting which was nice with the creaminess of the scrambled eggs.
I also enjoyed the Basler cheese. It had a nuttiness and graininess and very bold flavour. I would eat this one on it's own, with grapes, or melted in a fondue.
Golden Ears Cheesecrafters is a great one stop shop for all treats BC. I am confident you will enjoy it.

Talking about the food, that's incredible good, fresh and tasty products, affordable prices and very cozy... such a beautiful place!

Really nice place to get some craft cheese, choose between by package or by weight, delicious option for many different kind of cheese. Plus a really nice bistro where you can catch a bit of a nice pastry or try one of the dishes made with they local awarded cheese.

Fantastic staff. Best curry vegetable soup ever. Loaded with local products. Cheese making on site.

Very pricey but everything I've had from here has been delicious and well worth it

Artisan cheeeeeeses and neat frozen section of bakery goods, meat and beverages. Love the countryside vibe and cafeteria area where you can have a warming brunch!

This is a great find in Maple Ridge. I stayed in my RV. They have a great specialty shop with lots of made on site cheeses. Had "Rooting piggie Hash" for breakfast and it was incredible. Ask for the chefs homemade hotsauce! This is a family run operation and everyone was very friendly. Only 30 minutes from Vancouver and well worth the trip.
