About

The Fine Cheese Co are a family-owned, independent specialist of traditionally-made cheese. With over 35 years’ experience, their products can currently be found in over 1,100 locations across the UK, from 5* hotels to local delis.

Based in Bath, The Fine Cheese Co is set in the heart of the West Country: home to Cheddar, one of Britain’s most famous cheeses.

Bath Shop

Having first opened its doors 35 years ago, The Fine Cheese Co.’s original store in Bath offers an extensive selection of cheese, charcuterie, accompaniments and sweet treats.

Their on-site cheesemongers are always on hand and keen to chat all things cheese, so, whether you visit as a cheese novice or connoisseur, their experts can offer guidance with anything you are looking for.

In-house Dining

On top of their impressive shop selection, The Fine Cheese Co. also offer in-house dining, with both a breakfast and a lunch menu available.

For breakfast, you can treat yourself to some freshly baked bread or pastries, organic eggs sourced from Haresfield Farm, or an expertly-selected breakfast cheese plate.

For lunch, options include house-made soups and quiches, seasonal favourites, toasted sandwiches and charcuterie plates.

The most up-to-date menus can be found on the Bath Shop section of their website.
