I ordered a cheese box for New Years Eve recently to celebrate with friends down in London. The box was couriered in good time for the event and everything was packaged beautifully when it arrived. We enjoyed a delicious selection of cheeses, which staff at C&F helped me decide on, and were very happy to see in the new year full of fantastic artisan cheese! Would highly recommend popping into the shop any time of year!!

We used Debbie to create a Cheese Cake for our wedding and she was brilliant from start to finish. She helped us pick out our favourites and came up with ideas to make sure we had the right proportions of each cheese. Her prices were really good and we couldn’t recommend her enough for anyone wanting a cheese cake for their wedding.
