    When I step into Le Cave Formage, I take a deep breath and breathe in the smell of cheese at its finest! This shop is a marriage of French and British cheeses and exists purely out of a love for making fine cheeses. Some of my favourites are the soft and creamy cheeses such as pom calva and ami du chamertin. There bleu des basques and Montgomery cheddar are great for salads. Prices are higher than the grocery store, but worth the cost!

    Just one of the cheese coolers

    Wonderful and well stocked cheese shop on the way to the museum. If you want to sample the cheeses, order a plate or half a plate. Perfect for a snack and to try out the different varieties of cheeses.

    One time I went to La Cave and bought a large jar of fois gras and ate the whole thing by myself in the course of a week. Very delicious.

    The South African owner is lovely and has great suggestions, although you do feel as though you are being judged on how discerning your palate is when he asks you for your preferences.

    Tip: You must visit this food hall. It's awesome!…read more You know what? When there's a listing for a department store food hall, you know that it's good. No, not good. Fantastic! I was at this food hall in December 2013. It's located on the ground floor of this large department store. The displays are extremely fancy and captivating. I recall seeing mini cakes that looked yummy. Even the fruit in the display case, as in apples, pears, and more, looked amazing and in pristine condition. The pastries looked scrumptious. I could smell the croissants! You can get sandwiches, from egg salad to lobster rolls. Feel like steak and chips? Yep, you can get them here, too. I frankly couldn't tell you what you can't get here. I felt like a dream seeing so much good food, but it wasn't. It's definitely worth a visit, whether you end up browsing like me because the prices were steep or you end up splurging. There was a wine section that had shiny bottles of fancy wine varieties. You could get cheese to complement your wine. Everything in this store looked beautiful and elegant. I would do a few things differently when I return to this food hall: - I'd do afternoon tea. I'd actually splurge to experience tea here because I didn't realize that I could until after my Harrods visit. - I'd find a hotel room with a fridge, so I could bring back pastries, macarons, sandwiches, and more. - I'd dine here to experience the entire food hall experience instead of dining at a restaurant within Harrods. The more I reminisce about where I've been in London, I want to return! (55)

    On our last full day in London, we went to the Harrods Food Hall for lunch. The food hall sells…read moreall sorts of quality wares -- meats and cheeses, fresh produce, baked goods, wine, etc. You can also purchase meals to go and deli items, and we each bought a baguette sandwich and a bottle of water. Normally I wouldn't buy bottled water, but I couldn't resist -- this water was so pretty and looked so refreshing, with pieces of fruit in it. (We bought one with cucumber and one with bright pink dragon fruit.) For two sandwiches and two bottles of water, it came to £28.50. Not particularly inexpensive with the currency conversion (ouch!) but much cheaper than going out for lunch. Also, the sandwiches were delicious! It's a shame that we couldn't find the food hall when we had first visited Harrods two days prior. [Yelp collections: Europe 2024; London, England]

Their flagship shop is right down the street from my f-f-f-f-rrrrrrrrrr-EEEEEzing flat, and there's nothing like a glass of spicy red to warm me up and make me forget about all my lovelies I left on the other side of the pond. They carry some ridiculous numbers of wine (if I had to guess, I say approximately eleventy billion.) And their selection of wines from all over the world, within anyone's price range, is truly fantastic. Cheers! *Note... this review would make my D.A.R.E. instructor cry. Sorry Officer Oliver.

They have a fantastic range, and the lady in the shop was perfectly happy to chat and let us try samples and tell us all about the different cheeses. They also have a little offcuts basket, so if you want to buy little pieces for 75p a go, you can take small pieces of cheese instead. It's a hidden gem - my partner and I have now started a cheese fund so we can treat ourselves here every now and then!

Of course we stopped to look, being from Wisconsin, and they looked up, smiled at us, then went on their way working. On the way back past the store, we had a go in! It's tiny, separated by a plastic curtain into a refrigerated area holding hundreds of varieties of European cheeses. Since we typically stop in the afternoon for a cheese snack, we thought we would buy some and take them back to the flat. We chose a Shropshire blue, Emmental from Switzerland and a soft cheese from France. The store was spotless, these ladies were very accommodating and knowledgeable and for 12 Bucks bought enough for a few days. The recommendations were excellent. This store is highly recommended on your trip to London.

The person working there was very knowledgable about his cheese and was patient in helping us with trying different cheese. Based on what we liked, he ended up putting together a cheese plate for us.

The cheese portions were generous. - 42 month Gouda: a bit creamy but wonderful flavor - A French Alpine cheese - probably my favorite - Montgomery British cheddar - British Suffolk Brie: definitely worth trying - it can stand up to any French brie They had a pretty good wine selection for such a small place. We did a Nebbiolo for £8 and a Verdicchio for £6. In the end, with the cheese, it was £24 total, which is ridiculously reasonable. I wish we could take stuff to go, but I didn't have a fridge. Bonuses: - clean bathrooms - very friendly service - super cute shop with a neighborhood feel Note: closed Sunday and Monday at this location.
