"It’s time to get your best clothes on and have a flirt. And when we say, ‘have a flirt’ we mean, ‘find a mirror’. Whilst you’re at it order in a bottle or two from La Fromagerie and what we professionals refer to as ‘a shit tonne of cheese’. They have everything from soft French classics to four-year-aged goudas. Hit them up on their website for local delivery around Marylebone and Highbury." - heidi lauth beasley, jake missing
"La Fromagerie. La. Fromagerie. Say it out loud. “Last night? Oh, I just got dinner at La Fromagerie with Celeste. Of Daphne and Celeste fame, yes”. Is that not the most cultured sentence you’ve ever heard in your life? Translated from French it just means: the cheese shop. But La Fromagerie is a classy, almost clandestine-feeling wine bar in Marylebone, full of booze and charcuterie, gossiping and smelly stuff. The cheese shop, on the other hand, sounds like somewhere a lowly medieval peasant eats a fistful of cheddar." - rianne shlebak, heidi lauth beasley, jake missing
"The Fromagerie is a place in London mentioned by Stanley Tucci as a favorite spot to get cheese." - Cat Sposato
"La Fromagerie is an extremely tasteful deli/cafe/restaurant/wine bar hybrid. The sort of place where you expect Nigella Lawson does her daily shop. The food is simple and delicious—hams, cheeses, and bread for nibbles. Some hot meat and fish plates. A wholesome essential that every neighbourhood needs." - Team Infatuation
"La Fromagerie is the brainchild of Patricia Michaelson, London’s grande dame of cheese who fell in love with Beaufort — a type of cheese, not a Frenchman — on an Alpine skiing holiday and started selling it from her garden shed in Highgate. In 1992, the operation grew into La Fromagerie’s first location in Highbury Park, with a second branch eventually opening in Marylebone and a third — in Bloomsbury, opposite Noble Rot, a wholesale customer along with the River Cafe, Gordon Ramsay and Angela Hartnett. The Marylebone location boasts the most extensive food selection, serving breakfast, brunch, lunch, dinner, and takeaways — from cheese-led classics like fondue Savoyarde and Ploughman’s to regionally-inspired fare, galettes, and farmhouse breakfasts. The cheese and charcuterie boards are a rite of passage and come with a detailed flavour breakdown and a wine pairing, leaving patrons satiated, tipsy and — hopefully — better-versed in gastronomic nuances." - Daria Kyrilova
