"Cheese at Leadenhall — founded by Sue Cloke, a Paxton & Whitfield alum who formerly ran the cheese department at Harvey Nichols — self-identifies as a cheesemonger, bar and restaurant. French staples, British regional classics (from Cropwell Bishop Stilton to Lancashire Bombs) and a staggering selection of truffle cheeses can be found amongst the 100 or so British and European varieties stocked by the shop. The restaurant has a concise, seasonal gastropub menu that complements small plates and plats du jour with cheese-based hits — croques monsieur and madame, baked Camemberts and cheese platters. The wine list is solid, and features a notable range of vintage port, perfect on sipping on the terrace overlooking Leadenhall market. If sitting around sipping digestifs isn’t, for some odd reason, the order of the day, Cloke also hosts regular cheese walks around the city." - Daria Kyrilova

Fondue was nice but there was a bit too much alcohol in it that ruined the taste a bit. Otherwise nice spot in Leadenhall Market.

Baked Camembert was great pairing with the Romanian (yes) wine. 13.5% but was light and tasty. Chips were cooked well. Beers were around 5-6 per bottle. Sat outside on the terrace in the marketplace. Place is Run by a service oriented couple.

My friend and I did the cheese and wine tasting here and it was fantastic. Our cheeses were chosen for us, which Sue then talked us through and gave us some background on. We then were given 4 wines, which we were also taught about, before being left to it and to enjoy at our own pace and in our own way. Would highly recommend this experience!

Bought a gift experience for my wife of a classic cheese and wine tasting. This has got to be one of the loveliest experiences available in the city. Leadenhall Market has a fantastic atmosphere but the team at Cheese at Leadenhall are so welcoming, so passionate and so, so, friendly. Wasn't sure how this gift experience would play out but it was fabulous. Richard makes the wine tasting like sitting in a friend's front room while they excitedly tell you about a new wine they discovered on their travels while Sue encourages you to indulge in one of the best hand picked cheese boards you could wish for. If there was an option to add a 6th star I would have selected it. Massive thank you guys for your hospitality.

My favorite gateaway in the City after a day in the office. Great spot to stop with a few colleagues for a chat while drinking some good wine (they have a huge selection) and enjoy a few tapas and cheese platter. Staff is very lovely and attentive. Always keen to come back for a drink and few nibbles.

What a cute little find! Can eat lovely tasty food with a nice glass of wine, under a glass 'lead roof' (how it got its name) in all the atmosphere of Leadenhall Market!! We had a scotch egg, truffle croquettes and bread with alioli...all yumm. Can go shopping for wands like Harry Potter after :)

we thoroughly enjoyed our classic cheese and wine tasting experience. we were first presented with the wines (two whites, two red, and a port), then with the cheese (we asked for different ones, so we were able to try 10 each). everything was well explained, portions were very generous, and flavours outstanding. nothing was rushed, overall a great way to end the day

We drank an average bottle of wine which was very expensive for the quality. Lovely surroundings and friendly staff.
