Where to buy great cheese
If you are looking to buy great cheese, you can check to see if the producer sells direct.
However, cheesemongers and delis are great sources of advice and the great news is that many have online and bricks and mortar shops. Plus, they give you the opportunity to buy from loads of different cheesemakers at once.
You can make this a few hours out if you visit in person as there is a wine and beer shop, an amazing pizza restaurant and a mini cheese museum all on this beautiful rural site.
Liverpool Cheese Company, Woolton
Neals Yard Dairy, various London locations
The OG cheesemongers with an iconic Covent Garden shop.
Cheese, charcuterie and a host of artisan goodies.
I did my Academy of Cheese training in the same group as Grate owner Moz, and I wish I lived near her shop!
Paxton and Whitfield, London and Bath
French cheese aplenty and you can sit and watch the world go by with oysters and champagne in front of this pretty little shop.
This isn’t a comprehensive list, there simply isn’t enough room. But if you know a cracker that I should add, drop me a line.
