Chorlton Cheesemongers

Chorlton Cheesemongers isn’t just a shop that sells cheese. No, it’s a uniquely-adapted, humidity controlled space which specialises in British and Irish cheeses.

This dedication to doing things right has seen them pick up numerous awards including the Manchester Food and Drink Festival Food and Drink Retailer of the Year in 2022 and 2023’s Best Small Retailer North West in the Farm Shop and Deli Awards.

The selection of cheese on display is positively mouth-watering for any turophile. You can try bits and pieces and they will help you put together your perfect cheeseboard.

The special-recipe Cornish yarg, the Brunswick blue, the Little Rollright and the Ashcombe are all personal Confidentials recommendations.

We can’t rate this place highly enough – the staff are first-rate and there is a small selection of other bits and pieces such as breads, crackers and wines to go with your cheese.

Join the queues at Christmas-time and you’ll find yourself rubbing shoulders with food-lovers from all over Greater Manchester who come here for their cheese. You can order online too.

Watch out for their popular sell-out cheese-making events if you fancy dabbling in dairy.
