Me and my fella are an absolute nightmare in a deli! We're talking £20 minimum! But this one has…read moregot something special. The guy who serves you really knows his stuff and is really attentive. Yes, that means you sometimes have to wait a bit (it's never empty) but why be in a hurry when there's so many delicious goodies to browse. There's some fantastic cheeses and chutnies and jams and crackers but there's also some amazing scotch eggs, cheese and bacon bombs and quiches etc. This is one of my favourite cheese shops in the whole country so if you're in Sidmouth you simply must try it!

After trying sage derby at a yelp event, I was obsessed…read more I have no idea if I got the Ford Farm address right for yelp, but it seems difficult to drop by, even if you are in the vicinity: http://fordfarm.com/docs/pdf/directions.pdf. Luckily for me across the pond, I found some Ford Farm sage derby tucked away in a secluded dairy case at a Safeway in a nearby town. It was all I could do to refrain from eating the entire block in one go. AND! They use vegetarian rennet! Swoon!! (I am still obsessed.)

This place offers tours, however the last one had taken place when we arrived. Still, we tasted…read moresamples of 4 different aged cheddar and they were excellent. The service was wonderful and the cute shop a delight. We ended taking 2 different aged cheddars home and some other gifts as well. This locale in the Cheddar Gorge is superb. The drive down reminded me of a drive through the mountains in Switzerland, so beautiful. Certainly alot to see and do and walking is the way to do it. What a beautiful late afternoon in the Gorge. I look forward to returning to this beautiful place.

The Cheddar Gorge is famous for the cool caves that were used in the storage process of the cheese…read morethat they made in this area. I like cheese so I popped into this factory shop and I'm very glad that I did. On the way down the hill from the car park I popped into another gift shop that seemed to be offering cheese tasting, but the guy behind the counter had no customer service skills and I just left. The Cheddar Gorge Cheese Company shop, however, in extreme contrast to the first shop, has staff members just standing around behind the counter with the soul duty of offering you a sample of all the various varieties of cheese that they make in the factory behind the shop. You don't feel awkward at all asking to try them all. I DID buy some before I left the shop and it wasn't touristy expensive. I wish that there was a shop like this in my town. Not a lot of photos being taken but everyone in the shop was saying cheese. Pity it is 388 miles away.

Oh if only they were nearer my work! This is a deli counter / salad bar / cheese counter / sandwich…read moreshop. The sandwiches are just awesome, baps, baguettes or straight up sliced bread sandwiches that just never seem to go up in price. You get loads of filling, can mix and match and some of their specials are just amazing - tandoori chicken with mint sauce was my favourite but I haven't caught it recently. The cheese on offer is pretty wide ranging and there's also other unique items like eggs (I think they do geese eggs when they're in season), offcuts of smoked salmon and pies. Often people are queuing out of the door but don't let that put you off, it moves pretty quickly and it's only a small shop so there's not usually many people in there.

Great deli. They have a wide range of sandwich fillings and pasties/pies. Fab cheese counter…read more Staff are really friendly and helpful. Highly recommended
