Really friendly and knowledgeable staff at this extraordinary cheesemonger. Nice easy location at the famous West Bow Street. The staff was so kind and had a great sense of humour. They knew alot especially when I just walked in and asked for a creamy buttery textured cheese, they knew exactly what to give me. They give you a sample to try as well so your not forced into buying. Their cheese toasties are amazing. Big portion with a dollop of chutney in it but it is £6. To be honest I didn't mind paying it because of the great people that work their but if it was me I'd charge £5. Anyway it was a very satisfy lunch. They even have mini tables outside their tiny shop so you can sit and eat. But look at the pictures first before you thing its a normal seating area lol. I actually think it's quit cute and charming and wouldn't mind sitting for a quick toastie. Really happy with my cheese round purchase. I bought a truffle manchego hard cheese and a creamy Brillat Savarin.
