Le Maison du Gruyère in Broc

A small cheese factory. The visit will not take long. It is better to come before lunch to be able to see the cheese making process. If you come after dinner, you can see everything on video. There is audio in Russian and they provide the text in Ukrainian, which is very nice! There is a restaurant inside, where you can immediately taste cheese, fondue....

If you want to see the process of making cheese, come in the morning, we came at lunchtime and the work was already done. But a big plus is that there is audio accompaniment of the tour in different languages ​​of the world. Everything is clean and interesting to listen to how cheeses are made, educational for schoolchildren. When you buy a ticket They give you Gruyère cheese aged for 2,6 and 12 months to try.👍

Adorable cheese factory with a very convenient self guided tour in multiple languages. Included as part of Swiss Travel Pass and a definite must if you are in the area! Cheese is definitely unique to the region and extremely delicious. Due to the herbs eaten my the cows and the level of care applied in manufacturing the cheese it’s of superb marksmanship. Tour also includes a tasting packet of various aged cheeses. Yum!

At first glance the range seems very touristy, but there is also a lot from the region. The cheese is of course divine

Fantastic, I really enjoyed the cheeses and the tour

Preferred the visit in the morning because it is only in the mornings that the cheese is prepared in the factory. Otherwise you will only see videos

Ate cheese and potatoes until it came out my ears. Unique. Nice. My preferred Swiss cheese.

Absolutely delicious here. In the cheese dairy there is a restaurant with its own products. Top quality and served quickly. Highly recommended

Very complete museum about Gruyère cheese, with translator for all languages, and cheese tasting for 6,9 and 12 months, it's worth visiting

Great time. Warm atmosphere surrounded by the aroma of Swiss cheese. Extra service. THANKS.

The visit to the cheese factory is nice.

Super welcoming Very attentive staff Excellent meal at the restaurant and visit to the museum

Exciting tour with an insight into how the cheese is made.

It's an interesting tour. The production of Swiss cheese

Purchases of dairy products and Gruyère souvenir items

In the Maison du Gruyère, we visited the museum which is interesting but best done in the morning to really see how cheese is made. We also ate at the attached restaurant. It was a very good experience (Gruyère macaroni, chalet soup, hamburger...), plus, which doesn't spoil anything, the joviality of one of the waiters. Don't hesitate to test

interesting tour of the cheese factory about the preparation of Gruyère

Lovely ambiance, lovely service and food!

Small museum that offers a journey through the history of the renowned Swiss Gruyère cheese. Onsite restaurant & souvenir shop for cheese-related delights & more available. 🧀 🛒

Great place to visit in the middle of a beautiful city.

Family package entry: 12 CHF (2 adults + 2 children) at this price you shouldn’t expect anything impressive! We each had a tasting of 3 types of cheese maturation (see photo) and then saw the vats, cellars etc… The children were delighted with this outing, especially the tasting!

Super helpful staff Everything is delicious Bravo to all of you

Very interesting, I thought the selection of menus was cool, very friendly and attentive service in the restaurant.

We arrived her for a late light lunch, choosing the board of dried meat and cheeses. It was quite nice, however dominated more by the sausage than typical trockenfleish. The service was good and the restaurant was light and comfortable.

Wonderful, super small chocolates place. Wonderful hot chocolate to go ! Can only recommend!

The tour guide is ok, interesting. The shop is very good and the restaurant also. Great option if you are around. You must try strawberries with Chantilly cream!

Unmissable place!! Don't hesitate to book to go there as there are many visitors from all over the world. At the entrance you are given a small audio device in our language. You really have to take the time to listen to each step to benefit from it. We offer you a case with 3 slices of gruyere cheese with different maturation times. And at the same time also book at the restaurant to enjoy fondue, etc...

Really basic visit, although it is interesting to be able to observe the production live. Comment on the restaurant: their menu is interesting, but we left without being able to try it because of the length of service...

5 stars especially for the service at the restaurant. The staff was friendly and really nice. Appreciate it!

Very nice visit to the Gruyère house in Broc. Large parking lot available right next to the building, first hour free. The visit to the museum is very nicely explained through an audio guide that you receive with your entry. The audio guide is available in several languages ​​and if the language you want is not available to listen to, it may be available in paper form (such as Turkish), find out well before starting the visit. At the end of the visit, there is a color pie quiz, if you have followed the tour carefully it will be easy for you to answer. Very nice activity to do with family or friends.

Very friendly, too bad it was so short. The food is good, and it’s very affordable 👍🏼

You should definitely visit La Maison du Gruyère and attend their tour.

Museum, restaurant, and much more. Worth a visit👍

We stopped by when there was a demo of wood-fired cheese making. Really nice.

An interesting place worth visiting

We did not take the tour but only ate at the restaurant. Great welcome, really very friendly, nice decoration, fast service and we feel that there is mutual help between the staff. The fondue was excellent! The chocolate cake very well presented but overcooked, too bad. We look forward to coming back to taste other specialties!

For eating it’s baaaa perfect! The melt is amazing! Honestly, I don't regret gaining weight there.

The competent and very friendly staff, I ate a succulent couscous, don't change anything, it's perfect

An unmissable place on the itinerary to discover the canton of Fribourg!

There was a very rude lady at the cheese display area. I was just pointing at the cheese that I want and ask if I can purchase it. She rudely told me to not tap the glass. I wasn't even tapping, I was just pointing at it because I need to let her know what type of cheese I want. Very unpleasant experience and I don't feel like I want to visit this place any more. This happened on 26 December 2023 around noon time.

Unfortunately only a short visit on our day tour. So all that remained was a quick purchase of meringues, cheese and double cream. After the weather was very bad in the morning, it got better and better in the afternoon.

Nothing relevant and the price remains expensive, it should be free…

Very small museum and only 3 small pieces of cheese.

Nice location, quality and local products! Terrific desserts! We come back with pleasure...

Always so nice to come to this place

I went to visit the show dairy. In the restaurant, which is in the same building, I was served a very fine, good fondue. The staff is very friendly, prompt and very attentive

Great fondue I recommend nice restaurant with its cellar right next door

Had a fine fondue Moite-Moite, prices moderate, service great. Tour of cheese production visited, souvenir bought in the shop

It was good to learn how this delicious cheese is made, but it's best to come in the morning to see how cheese is made. We arrived at the end of the day and the jars were empty. We received a piece of cheese at the entrance. The staff is friendly! I advise you to go with the children :)

La Maison du Gruyère offers an exceptional journey into the world of cheese-making, combining education, observation, and delightful culinary experiences. From the moment I entered, I was greeted by the inviting aroma of cheese and the warmth of the staff, setting the tone for a memorable visit. The tour of the cheese factory is both enlightening and fascinating. It provides a comprehensive look at how cheese is produced, from the initial stages to the final product. The opportunity to take photographs of the cheese cellar, where wheels of cheese are carefully aged for up to 12 months, is a unique experience that cheese enthusiasts will particularly appreciate. Witnessing the production process firsthand is a rare treat. The transparency and openness of the facility allow visitors to gain a real sense of the craftsmanship and dedication that goes into every wheel of cheese. It's an educational experience that's as enjoyable as it is informative. The staff at La Maison du Gruyère deserves special mention for their friendliness and expertise. They enhance the experience by sharing their knowledge and passion for cheese-making. The highlight for many, myself included, is the cheese restaurant located within the facility. The fondue and Rösti I tried there were simply delicious, embodying the rich flavors and traditions of Swiss cuisine. The restaurant's ambiance, combined with the quality of the food, makes it a perfect way to conclude the visit. Overall, La Maison du Gruyère is a must-visit for anyone interested in the art of cheese-making, Swiss culture, or simply looking for a unique and tasty experience. The blend of education, observation, and culinary delight makes it a standout attraction.

A brief history of the most delicious and famous Gruyère cheese. Make sure to get some Alpage Gruyère to try. It’s fantastic. Definitely a must to visit when in Gruyère. Please consider the times of the cheese making process to get the most out of your visit.

The best fondue in Switzerland!! Very friendly staff both at the Museum and in the restaurant

Switzerland is paradise, Gruyère is a special love))

It's okay, the place is not very big but nice

Small but really interesting. The entry ticket was a small packet of cheese.

Perfect! Both affordable and very interesting. In particular the outdoor demonstration

We ate very well The hearty starter salad And the main course was very good.

A very interesting visit which teaches us how Gruyère is made!

Mixed opinion. Ultra quick visit, indicated 1 hour... done in 5 minutes. 1 hour of audio I guess... nice to see the tanks. Restaurant: excellent fondue. On the other hand, charge more than 4 euros for tap water.. thank you very much

Quite a small and decent cheese factory. It was quite informative and we all got a bit of gruyère cheese. Would recommend for a short excursion

Really great place to visit! For me when you are in Gruyère it is a must! I would recommend to be there about 12:00 already inside to see the process how the cheese is made! It looked great and it is an interesting thing to see. After some knowledge I went to the restaurant. For me it’s a must as well! I got a fondue for one person and it was simply amazing! So if you travel alone no worries they have portions for singles as well! Great experience and very tasty one!

Tasting the cheese is a big plus, but on the other hand the course is not very interesting to do with children under 12-13 years old

Do visit if you are interested in cheese and how it’s made. I believe the cheese that is made here is named after the area and is also one of the cheeses used in Fondue. They give you a sample if you pay for the tour, but you can always buy more from the gift shop. You should also drop by the Castle and the museam. There are several restaurants and shop for a nice meal and some shopping. Overall an excellent place to spend a quiet idyllic weekend.

Only went to the restaurant to eat. Price-performance is ok. Service friendly. Ambience is ok. Unfortunately there is no map in German - or at least we were told no.

Nice explanation with the audiophone. To visit if possible during manufacturing hours.

Luxury apartments and live styles

A closer experience to machineries would be appreciated

I really liked the store and the tour! It will be very interesting for children! You can see how the delicious Gruyère cheese (my favorite) is made.

old-style cheese making by two very friendly cheesemakers finished with a delicious fondue.

Amazing place at a convenient location

Great visit, great discovery. Very good welcome.

If you love cheese then you should visit

Nice place and delicious cheese! Entrance is expensive!

A chaotic souvenir shop, with prohibitive prices (for us poor Italians), and the possibility of seeing the cheese factory, but for a fee! Sad and industrial context. Not worth it. Cheese is also found elsewhere.

A bit short but interesting visit. To do in your trip

Pleasant site, but designed for tourists.

Cheesy. Audio guide aimed at children, but a fun birds eye view of cheese being created. Restaurant was above our price bracket, so can't comment on that. While you're there, go up the hill to Gruyere Village. The castle has art in it, alongside the castley stuff, but we didn't go in there either, as most of the reviews we read didn't really mention it much even if they had gone in. So we saved the money on that too.

Interesting visit, well done but a little short. We arrived at the end of the day so we were not able to see the cheesemakers working (but only the videos and the work site). Too bad it is not possible to taste the milk before it is transformed into cheese.

Very nice little stop in Gruyère! It's a small museum and can be visited in about 20 minutes, but it is still well priced and worth the quick visit. We got fondue in the restaurant and it was delicious! Very attentive service and a nice shop as well. I recommend it!

Magnificent day in Switzerland Magnificent and magnificent, an extraordinary little fondue, magnificent landscapes to repeat

Very good food, onion soup, fondue, very friendly staff know how to promote all their dishes, cheese, wine as well as dessert. I will definitely go back.

Very nice museum where you can watch the making of Gruyère and a good tasting... a nice shop too.

Beautiful store with a large selection of products 👍👍

Ecomuseum very well explained, with audio guide provided, 3 pieces of Gruyere cheese of different ages given at the entrance... The adjoining restaurant is very good value for money and very friendly!

Cheese production only in the morning, then show Rome without staff. Restaurant very tourist friendly. Nice personel

Very bad staff, ordered a fondue to taste, and told them that we would order more after tasting the fondue. However they very rudely picked up all our cutlery and paper mats, and left. The service and attitude of the staff is very bad and this place should be shut.

I loved the museum and seeing them making cheese up close. You get the cheese at the entrance so you can taste it Ticket cost €16 and you can also go to the castle with the same ticket

Not impressed. It has raving reviews but it is actually not that big. You just see the machines working and a couple of staff cleaning. Also there was no cheese tasting just a sample given when we checked in

For touristic attraction that was honestly very good. Food, service, dog-friendly staff, even prices. Can recommend!

Unfortunately, no good reception. The young lady at the checkout still has to learn to smile and speak properly to the customer

Well, what can I say? It is a huge tourist commercial attraction. The restaurant is massive, the Gruyère cheese board and the salad were tasty and we were able to take the excess cheese home without any problems. Staff (almost everyone) was friendly. In addition to cheese, the shop sells a lot of tourist junk that unfortunately has nothing to do with cheese. There is no point in taking a tour in the afternoon, cheese is made in the morning. All in all, not worth the detour for us.

Super instructive, especially for the little ones.

The tour is accompanied by audio guide, you can see the actual cheese making process from the huge windows, and as a treat we were given a small pack of cheese which was delicious. On the whole the tour was not that bad.

A must see in the region without forgetting the castle

a must-see if you like good Swiss cheese

Great tour, great restaurant and store, the beat cheese!

Self guided interactive tour; friendly staff and small shop selling lots of cheese and souvenirs. Quite busy while I wash there. Worth a visit once.

Beautiful manufacturing demonstration to do absolutely

Kitchen always open, luxury fondie with potatoes and bread. Price....imagine...but like everything in Switzerland and even so it was not a bad price

Very informative trip. It shows the cheese making process. But you have to come at the right time to witness it . We reached around 11.30am. After 20min got to see how the raw cheese in liquid form transferred from a big container to the smaller molds to form the round shape. The entrance fee is free with Swiss half fare card or else CHF7. You will be given 3 types of small cheese sample and an audio device.
