"We ordered a gift hamper for our family and when the courier delivered the parcel to the wrong address, Lucie went above and beyond to help us. They placed a replacement order and contacted the courier and sorted everything out for us- thank you!"

"Sublime. This is a must-visit. I am a huge cheese fan anyway and have always wanted to visit. We came as a four, there was a lovely cross-breeze on a hot day, and the servers were the loveliest people I've ever known. We had a gluten-free requirement in our party which was met no problem. We have 2 Reblochon between 4 of us (one gluten-free) and a bottle of..." Read more

"Lincoln’s hidden gem. If you’re into great cheeses, beautifully presented this is a must stop location. Enjoyed their sharing platter of five cheeses with a glass of wine. Trust the team here to make the selection for you, it’s faultless."

"They say that businesses should "do one thing and do it well" but The Cheese Society doesn't adhere to this old adage - they do one thing and do it brilliantly! I cannot think of any aspect of what they do that is less than absolutely outstanding - from the cuisine, the ambiance, the table service, the baked goods and of course the cheese and the wonderful..."
