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.

It's not the biggest shop in the world but sometimes good things come in small packages. Prices are middle of the road to high but you get what you pay for. It's always nice to get some good cheese and this is a great place to fulfil that need.

The excellent selection of different chutneys and oils pushed this shop higher in my estimations and when I saw they had a handful of real ales on the bottom shelf I was in dreamland (and 4 stars became 5).

Wow, I love this place!…read more If you're into the 'deli life' of fine cheeses, wine, gourmet chutneys, crackers and all things treat-wise then this place should be somewhere you need to hit if you're in the Hebden Bridge area. We popped in twice while holidaying around here for 3 days and bought some lovely picky items to enjoy a home picnic. The cheese was excellent and with Camembert and Old Amsterdam served perfectly ripe and ready to dive in to! The wine selection is really impressive and don't miss out on the olives too - the chilli ones have a real kick but really hit the spot. Get there early as well so as you can get bread, we were lucky enough to get a couple of ciabatta rolls on the last visit, very tasty! Not the cheapest place on the planet but perfect for a little treat or to live the 'dolce vita' as often as possible!

I'm guessing Daniel Seymore is renting the shop off Malcom, but it's no bad thing. 3 stores specialising in meat might have been too much, especially in a place littered with raw meat. Known as the grocery store on Butchers Row, Daniel Seymore sells the other stuff. From drinks, including milk, to eggs, to cheese. It's a nice little shop that doesn't focus on any one thing. Any shop that has a sign that reads 'Any size block of cheddar for £1.50' cannot be a bad place. They prices are unbeatable, and it feels like a quality shop, rather than a load of stuff that's been thrown together. To hold on to the Malcom Michael crown, I suppose it would have to be worth it!

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!!

Sticky Toffee Heaven, a cheese that resembles a fudge. Cranberry, Orange & Cointreau Cheshire, one that definitely has apple and cinnamon, all right in time for Christmas. Every market I got to lately, I see these cheerful cheeses, and I'm never disappointed. These guys are the mad scientists of cheese. They'll put things you'd never expect in your fromage, and it tastes all the better for it. I've purchased Raj, Sticky Toffee and Black Bob, I've tried Jerk and all the Christmassy ones, and nothing disappoints. I bumped into these lot not only at the Manchester Christmas Markets but also during a recent trip to Buxton where they were holding a Winter Wonderland market, and our friend's post office shop near that. But if you can't find it at any stalls, just order it from their online shop! I'm sure some lucky person will love to find it in their Christmas hamper, or if not, just treat yo' self and gobble it all up. It'll be pricier than your average cheese simply because of its nature, and this isn't mass produced supermarket stuff. It's something you buy to spoil someone, and the folks at the stalls will always give you great suggestions regarding what to eat them with. This cheese will put a grin on your face, that's for sure. And their slogan reads along the same lines too!
