I’ve been eating Comté on a regular basis for several years. I love its complex nuttiness (takes one to know one) but knew nothing of the 1000 year history or provenance of the cheese; so the opportunity to be taken through the varying ages of Comté by Patrick McGuigan from The Daily Telegraph with suitable beer pairings at one of London’s best cheese shops, was not one to be sniffed at.
if you want a descent cheese platter in london, here you go !
was passing around and the smell took me there to had a very excellent launch .

Fromage A Trois. La Cave is a new favourite place of mine to grab lunch. A little place of Euro-chic in an otherwise wet and cold London Town. You sit up at rickety tall tables while friendly shop assistants buzz around you chattering about the new cheeses and combinations in store that you HAVE to try! From the second you walk in you feel like you have been transported to Barcelona, Paris or Roma..not bad for a little cheese shop on the corner in Kensington!
The menu is quite simple, in fact there's only a choice of two plates: meat or cheese. Take a friend so you can have both ;)
A platter of freshly cut hams and salamis will be delivered to your table and the waitress will tell you all about where its from and what is what. Then comes the cheese! There's 8-10 different types from all over Europe that are laid out on the platter according to strength. It's serious business this cheese eating you know.
The standout for me was the ridiculously luscious rich and creamy Brie with the optional flavoured honey. The perfect balance of salty-sweet.
Make sure to browse the shelves and not to leave without a few bags of fresh goodies! Without fail I leave with bags and boxes piled high with soft cheese, meats and baguettes.
If you're looking for an unpretentious, inexpensive but delicious and superior quality produce then I highly recommend this place!
...what a wonderful brunch I had there last week.
It's the best way to spend an afternoon (or any other time)! Sample incredible cheese and charcuterie platters with everything explained by knowledgeable friendly staff.
Nice place to try different cheeses and meats. Attentive staff and not too pricey, given its location.
Very nice place! Amazing selection of cheese and wine!
Really nice place! I loved that the cheese board had a variety of French and English cheeses and very tasty too! Not bad prices for London as cheeseboard only £12 which I found decent. Really lovely staff , chatty and friendly and also explained all the cheeses to us . Would definitely come here again
A very nice place to go if you are in the area, I popped in for some cheese and wine whilst going to the Museums, the food and drink were amazing the service was great.
Was given a good roundup of which wines go with which cheeses, it was very informative.
The only issue I had was it was a hot day, so decided to sit outside, but right outside is a bus stop, so you get tourists pointing at your baked camembert and staring! But apart from that, it was great.
Great service! Amazing cheese and good wine, what else can you want from a cheese restaurant
We went to La Cave a Fromage for a French/Italian wine and cheese evening a couple of days ago (we were given a voucher). We had some amazing cheeses paired with really good wines. Timothy, and trainee Dillon, were very knowledgeable, really friendly and professional....thank you both. We had a really enjoyable evening.
Great smelling and better tasting shop choca-bloc full of cheese! How could you go wrong? We had a baked st marcellin which be warned is very big - bigger than camenbert and we found it to have less flavour - next time I go I'd have the camenbert over the st marcellin. The food is very good however, its melted cheese. The foie gras was also very good. The service was a little slow but that may also have been because we were hidden in a corner behind a big post. The tables are squeezed in but you are not too cramped and if that means I get sat more quickly I don't mind - the sandwiches also looked amazing though we didn't try them.
Delicious sandwiches with french cheese <3 ! Here you will not find classical sandwiches but sandwiches with sun-dried tomatoes, chicory. Even the lemonade and yoghurt included in the lunch menu were delicious !
Even the bread is good, which is not often in London...
Staff's very friendly.
Merci messieurs :)
Nice cheeses for a fair price ( i believe so, in London for real cheeses!). as a ridiculous cheesie person, love what they have & can suggest that you'll not be turned down from bread. they're nice too.
