Based on the atmosphere and quality of wine, I love this little spot. It is so cosy. We were the only customers in the store and received superb service. The owner runs this location and a few other shops, plus hosts food tents at festivals during Christmas. She came over to our table and made some wine recommendations and gave us a bowl of crisps on the house. My partner, Seth S., and I both ordered the Pinot Noir from Romania. It was delightfully full-bodied and smooth. The lighting is dimmed just enough to encourage good conversation and a comfortable atmosphere. There are two main rooms for seating, each with groupings of chairs or booths around bistro style tables. The art and decor feel like a brasserie. I would highly recommend The Deli for a delicious glass of wine (or 3) and great conversation with friends.

Breakfast Review:…read more One of the best Full English breakfasts in the Midlands! Its a wonderful deli, on the High Street in Boldmere, with outdoor seating - which is superb when the sun comes out! The breakfasts are awesome. Superb sausages, great bacon, exceptional bread, (the deli sells some of the best bread in Birmingham). 2 succulent sausage, 2 bacon, fried egg, 2 half tomatoes, mushrooms. toast, quality butter. Its one of the best in Birmingham, (I rate it joint 2nd). The staff are great, headed by Pip the owner and her team of assistants, (including sons). The only real problem with this place is that I always spend a fortune on their amazing cheeses, breads, cakes and pate's. Try it. You will thank me!

Walking between charity shops in this fine city, I spotted a small arcade that I'd not seen before…read more My reward for being super-aware this time round was to find that there's an independent cheese shop nestled in there. They've actually got Snowdonia Cheese Company Amber Mist! Whenever SCC cheeses are sold there's usually plenty of their Black Bomber, but I find Amber Mist is quite hard to get hold of. It's the best Whisky cheese, in my opinion. (And that's including anything available at Farmer's Markets in Scotland...) So I'm having a truckle of that, and I'm committed to being disciplined enough to save it for Christmas. What else? After I've had short rave, the owner can see that I'm quite keen on the yellow stuff, so she offers me a sample of Harlech. Just when you think you've tasted and seen all the cheese in Europe, there are still surprises left. This is cheddar with horseradish and parsley. Cheese AND condiment. My two favourite foods in one make me buy a few hundred grams of this. It's going to be perfect on top of a veggie pattie to make a piquant burger. Next up is Worcerster Hop. I've had Hereford Hop before, so I'll trust that Elgar County's version is similarly tasty. Always a good match for a US India Pale Ale. The last two didn't last long, though the Amber Mist is sat in a scared space in the fridge. I'll be back at Cheese to Please to stock up for Christmas. Independent with a charming owner, here you'll find tasty delights beyond the usual supermarket fare. Discover a world beyond Wensleydale and Cranberry this Christmas. (Though they had that in too when I went.)

Since it's…read moreone of the oldest cheesemongers and is well established, it is more expensive, but compared to American prices, it's still not that bad. They have a good selection of interesting cheeses. Even though it was empty on a weekday afternoon, the cheesemonger didn't seem particularly interested in helping us since we weren't buying a ton. I know it's annoying to let us sample and then cut a bunch of 100 g pieces, but we just didn't have anywhere to store the cheese on our trip. They also have lots of cheese tools and cheese related gifts, as well as their own crackers and lots of various spreads. It's a pretty cute and complete shop.

Paxton and Whitfield was always a London institution. And I love old traditional shops, especially businesses as old as this one. So, I went into this shop hopeful I could find a special treat for a picnic. It was lovely, a really special experience. The young man in the shop was really helpful and knowledgeable and friendly and not in the least bit snooty. There were lots of beautiful artisan cheeses from all over, including some special local cheeses. Suffice it to say that I tasted some beautiful cheeses in there and took some lovely stuff home with me. I can only recommend that you do the same. I hope that you enjoy it as much as I did.

Best of all was the pudding - at the time I was just weaning myself off a diet and had been drooling at Gregg's doughnuts for the best part of a week. I'm so glad I waited because the desserts here are amazing - as well as Baklava they do Iranian sorbet, ice creams and (also very generous in size) fruit salad. The restaurant isn't licensed but they do really refreshing mint tea - which given the amount of food we'd managed to pack away was a welcome addition. It's always busy here - especially on Friday evenings so I would phone ahead.
