Booths do their best, but when you really want to treat yourself to great cheese this is where you…read morehave to go: a little alley off Market Square, one of those the tourists overlook. You'll find the 'normal' assortment that denotes a genuine cheese shop, but what really sets the place apart is the whole counter dedicated to local cheese: wonderful creamy blue with a nice kick later on, the same for an innocent-looking goat cheese, and wonderful choices in the hard cheese section. For once you can talk with the staff about your tastes, and for once they know the history of each of their products: this is more than commerce, it's genuine pleasure. Interesting oils, preserves and biscuits, too.

Forget the vacuum packed mass produced cheeses from the supermarkets, come along to a little shop like this and get some real cheese you won't regret it! :-)

The owner tries to stock locally made cheese as well as cheeses from around the world. It is up to you how much you want, none of this pre-packed rubbish sold here. Fresh eggs of various sizes, including duck eggs are available as well as a range of honeys, jams and fruit butters. To complement your cheese a full range of crackers and biscuits are stocked as well as various pickles and chutneys. So if you want a pound of mousetrap or a small piece of Garstang Blue, the Crumbly Cheese is the place to go.

More cheese Grommit and plenty of it. The Cheese Board is pretty much a celestial invention then. It stocks 200 types of speciality cheese, hampers and cheese wedding cakes; local, British and Continental cheese. I mean how good is that. Cheese tastic goodness and so much of it. You best get Daisy eating more cud, we're going to need the milk. Now I pride myself on knowing my fromage from the babybels but if you don't fear not. The people who work there all know their stuff and are really approachable. I wonder if there is such a position as a cheese guru and if so how can I apply. I left armed with the smelliest stilton ever. The more mould the better but only on my cheese not in general everyday life. It would also be rude not to try a nice slab of Wensleydale too. Remember to try keeping it local folks. I may stop mid sentence because this is me in my element. Cheese arama and total indulgence. What a winner.

This shop is well loved by many, but i'm not sure of it…read more When you first walk in, the place has character i give it that. But this is quickly demolished by the fact that the shop is very cramped to the point where i nearly fell over a basket. The staff ask you what you want straight away too, which i don't like, as i like to take my time and have a good look through everything and not feel harrassed. I love cheese, but i find it rather expensive to be honest for what you get as well - i got some sheeps milk wenslydale and it came to about £7 for my average sized hunk. It was nice, but for £7 i expect it to blow my socks off which it didn't. I've paid less for other, rarer cheeses at newer deli's in Harrogate - where i've been allowed to taste them first before buying as well - and been blown away by what i got. Its an ok shop, but i'm afraid that there are better contenders out there now to be honest.

We were greeted warmly and shown to our reserved table which consisted of a squishy sofa with a low coffee table. We did ask if we could be seated elsewhere as it seemed impractical to eat food there . Graciously we were taken to the back with high tables much better! The food is fantastic if you love cheese (as the place name suggests) meat, and nibbles. There were a few starters or for £15 each you could choose a platter with x2 cheeses of your choice. We ordered ours separately as my fella isn't a stinky cheese fan haha While we waited (which was a while) I was served a tasty zombie cocktail and himself a tasty flat white. The platter looked great when it eventually landed. Homemade pork pie, scotch egg, chicken, beef, Italian meats, various fruit, olives, crackers and bread .oh and the cheese. It was all beautifully presented and tasted excellent . The malbec served was also gorgeous. Overall it was a nice experience, cosy, lovely staff and food with quirky mouse artwork. Only thing I would suggest is the type of seating as another couple walked in and asked the same thing aka to be moved from a non squishy sofa to eat and the service a little slow but will be back for sure

I popped in here to catch up with an old school friend and we only wanted a light snack, so I got the 'nibble' cheese platter which was around £6.95 if I remember correctly and comes with a coffee or tea. The big platters are around £12 so I didn't expect to get much cheese- I had a choice of three from the deli counter. Went for a French Brie, creamy blue Brie and this incredible horseradish cheese, which is really tasty if you like horseradish. They brought loads- for just over £6 it was an amazing deal and plenty for one person. The platter came with a stack of crackers, chutney, grapes- it was a steal! My friend Holly had the coffee and cake option. It was insanely good value for money! The decor is a bit simple and basic but the staff are fantastic and the cheese top notch. I believe they have a BYOB system so you can bring your own wine to have with the cheese!!

The sample room offered up 20 samples of divine cheese; pure bliss for me. We then went to the Kit Calvert restaurant for lunch. It was crowded and service was a bit slow and disconnected, such as we had no salt and pepper on our table and were ever asked about drink refills. The food, however, was amazing. I went with the full Cheese Experience (3 courses) while my husband had two. We went with two different cheesy starters, both delectable. I had the chicken with smoked cheese. The breast was perfectly cooked in a lake of cheese sauce, with the rosti beneath it (like a thin hashbrown) added a nice crunch. For my dessert course, we shared the ginger cheesecake with a scoop of vanilla ice cream. Neither of us are cheesecake people but we declared this the best we have ever had. It wasn't as sweet as American cheesecakes, and had a pleasant cragginess with ginger warmth as a complement. The ice cream was also better than what you find most anywhere in America--fresh and creamy. What a glorious meal!

You walk up past the farm and the goats who's milk this cheese is produced from, and ring the bell of the house. Out pops the lady and shows you all the products they have available that have been produced right there on the farm. At this time of year, stock is a little limited, but the lady explained to us that the milk production had just started again and they were soon to be very busy producing lots of goats cheese. She let us sample a few of the different cheeses she had available and we plumped for some hard cheese with a paprika rind and some soft cheese balls in garlic. Both were very tasty, and buying a product direct from the farm where they are produced from start to finish is something truely special.
