Britain · CHEESE
Good cheese tastings fill up weeks ahead and the great ones go first. Below: the 3 to book early, what each includes and how they differ.
Meet by Green Park station and follow an English-speaking guide through Mayfair, Fortnum & Mason, Soho, Little Italy, and Covent Garden. Taste Stilton, soft cheeses, Italian specialties, and prosecco, with a playful cheese quiz along the way. Guides may include Jack, Perla, Bettina, or Nic.
“Delicious cheese and knowledgeable guide. Fun way to spend 2 hours.”
Meet your English-speaking guide, often Mel, by the Richard Cobden Statue in St Ann’s Square for a two-hour cheese crawl. Visit several local venues, meet cheesemongers, taste cheese with wine or soft drinks, enjoy games, and finish near Tib Street.
“Great fun, guide was really interesting. We went to places I have never been to. definitely recommend”
Meet at The Cork and Truckle in central Bath for three tasting glasses of English wine, three British cheeses, crackers, chutney, nuts, pickles and charcuterie. A short introduction explains pairing and tasting, then you get relaxed time to enjoy the cellar experience in a small group of up to six.
“A very quaint, cosy atmosphere. Very welcoming and very knowledgeable. Good quality products.”
Pick a city, a castle or a long drive north.
