If you like cheese, then you need to be very, very careful coming here. You will find it impossible…read moreto choose, so you will simply buy many good cheeses. This is an amazing cheesemonger and there isn't a bad cheese in the place. They're attentive, knowledgeable and friendly. In addition to having a wonderful array of delicious cheeses, they've got fine wines, accessories, sauces, and even fresh sandwiches (using their cheeses, of course). I duck in and grab something--anything--and love it every time. You can get unpasteurised cheeses here, which Americans don't get very much. You can also find brilliant artisanal cheeses where you can learn all about who supplied the milk, who made the cheese, where it comes from, etc. You can practically learn the goats' names. If you're in the Piccadilly Circus / Jermyn Street area, this is absolutely worth stopping in.

This is one of my favorite cheese shops in London and it also happens to be the oldest cheese…read moremonger in the city too. The first Paxton & Whitfield cheese shop was opened in 1797 and is located on Jermyn street just across from Fortnum and masons. They have an excellent variety of quality cheeses including cheeses from the British isles. Their truffle cheese are particularly excellent. Service is very professional and those working at the store are very knowledgeable about the cheeses. While upscale with a traditional ambiance, the store is also fresh and modern. Highly recommended.

Jumi (pronounced YOU-ME) is located in Borough Market, a bustling, historic market in central…read moreLondon that focuses on quality food and sustainable production. They are a producer/selector of artisan cheeses from Switzerland and are changing the way people think about Swiss Cheese. All of the unique products at Jumi Cheese are produced by four family-run dairies in the Emmental region of Switzerland. The cows that supply the milk for Jumi's dairies feed on fresh grass and hay, and the farmers start and end the process by hand. Their 'stall' is located in the Three Crown Square section of Borough Market and features a range of cheeses like Belper Knolle, a specialty of theirs, spahn, goat cheese, truffle cheese and more. They first came on my radar when I saw a video on social media featuring their 'brain cheese.' The cheese resembles small mammalian brains at various stages of decay with it's fuzzy layer of blue mold surrounding the fist size balls. This one of the mouldiest cheeses you can buy in the UK and for some strange strange reason.... I just had to try it. And so, I've had this bookmarked for years for the moment I'd be back in London. At first glance, the Blue Brain cheese looked a bit intimidating. Are we sure about this? Will my stomach survive this? The questions tried to dissuade us to no avail. At about £9.90, the cheese was more affordable than I anticipated. We bought one for the road and magically, it mostly survived hours in our bag, lol. If you plan on sightseeing more after the market, I'd suggest bringing a smaller cooler or find a small bag of ice or frozen veggies in a nearby store to keep it cool. Once we got home, we dug in. The cheese was very pungent! And despite it's appearance, this had to be one of the smoothest, most flavorful blue cheese I've ever had. Wow, I was pretty amazed and happy that we went for it. The flavor is strong, but not overwhelming and I honestly really liked it. We paired it with some crackers and jam (apricot or peach, can't remember which exactly) and it was the perfect way to end our evening. For the food adventurous, I'd definitely recommend trying the blue brain cheese ;)

Cute small cheese shop. The staff was very friendly & helpful with suggestions & samples. Ended up…read morewith 4 cheeses & some truffle honey. Will be back for more next time I'm in town

Borough Market is a true London gem. Sometimes derided by locals as a tourist trap, it is…read morenonetheless a haven for foodies like myself With so many wonderful stalls to peruse, this stall holds the distinction of the stall which I purchase from the most often. If you're a regular there and you don't remember seeing a sign saying Italainate, it's because there isn't one! People know it as the Parma Ham and Mozzarella Stall. Indeed , it is listed as such on the Borough Market website As its nickname suggest, they specialise in just 2 products but the mozzarella and Parma ham are the very bst quality, imported directly from Italy. The stallholder, Philip Crouch sources directly from the producer, Saint Ilario The mozzarella is an unpasteurised buffalo mozzarella from Campagnia - they come in 100g and 250g sizes as well as in mini balls. They also do a delicious burrata, which has cream added into the cheese-making process to make the cheese even more creamy The Parma ham has an amazing depth of flavour - I actually prefer it to the more revered Iberico ham. This is moister and trades some saltiness for flavour. You can either buy the ham in sealed packs which is better if you want to keep it. However, I prefer to to get the freshly sliced ham which is better if you will consume it within a few days - doesn't usually last that long in my house So, when you're in Borough Market, swing round to their stall in the Green Market and try a sample. You'll be hooked!
