Regional cheese and cream stores United Kingdom

The French know too little, and too little, about British cheeses. Yet the British, let alone the Scots, have excellent cheeses. The Mellis cheese makers are more than convinced of this and offer high quality farmhouse cheeses in their shops, matured to perfection. Learn about the differences between the different cheddars, the different blue... Isle of Mull cheddar, Loch Arthur cheddar, Lanark Blue, Clava Brie... You will be as surprised as you are pleasantly surprised. A must-see discovery!

This little shop is a little set back from Beauly and the road. Crazy Highland cows, you'll have to stop there to meet Jamie, Katie and Heather. The three of them graze there quietly, with a few llamas as meadow neighbours. The shop sells products from the farm, but also a selection of quality delicatessen products. Visitors are welcome here and even warmly welcomed. Don't be afraid of the tourist trap, the owners are really in the process of pleasing and sharing their love of Scotland.

Right next door to Arran Aromatics, this eminently local and artisanal address is worth a visit if you are a cheese lover. Delicious Scottish cheeses are made here and you can enjoy them on site while watching the creamers at work. In addition to the classic cheddars: cheddar with herbs, ginger, whisky, caramelized onions, Arran mustard, chili... You'll also find chutneys, oatcakes and other products perfect for a proper tasting, or filled baskets.

You can taste the famous Pwll Mawr ("Big Pit Cheddar") at this address, a cheese that has matured... at the bottom of the mine! If you like cheese, don't forget to test it, this kind of cheese is quite rare! It is also located at the Big Pit store. There are a number of other types of cheddar cheeses on sale, ranging from the most traditional to some more original flavours such as whisky, mustard or garlic.

For the homesick French, Michael is a cheesemaker who makes his cheeses from local raw milk. After graduating from the School Artisan Food, several experiences with great British cheesemakers and various farms, he decided to start his own project and funded it through a crowdfunding platform. He now offers the first raw milk blue cheese in Northern Ireland, called Young Buck and made in County Down. A connoisseur of his trade and very nice, his cheese factory is worth a visit for the amateurs.

A great wine and cheese shop for all French people nostalgic for the country, run by a dynamic and friendly team. There are even some very good loaves of bread, a delicious reminder of our dear Poilâne bread. The products are imported from small Italian or French producers, of high quality, to whom the team regularly visits. In the evening, the grocery store transforms into a cosy and charming wine bar, with wines by the glass and boards of cheese and charcuterie. A very good spot for an aperitif, a real one, the French way.

The French certainly do not come to London to eat cheese. But sometimes nostalgia... Moreover, with this address, you will understand that there are also English cheeses that are worth a good loaf of bread! And when you talk about cheese in London, it will be essential to associate this small shop with it, which offers no less than 500 different varieties of cheese from all over Europe. You will find classics as well as rather original specialities (pecorino with truffles), English cheeses as well as foreign cheeses.

Contrary to what one might think, London is home to some excellent cheese dairies, including this one. Not everything is said in the brand, here we offer not only very good cheeses but also delicatessen: salamis, sausages, hams from small French and Italian producers. Pasta and cakes are homemade. The cheeses come from all over Europe and even from the USA. Also a shop of the brand in Marylebone. It is a paradise for the French who are homesick or tired of cheddar cheese.
