Atmosphere and Service

Pros:

  • "The Cheese Bar had a great atmosphere, friendly staff, and wonderful cheese dishes and wine."
  • "Staff were very attentive and well trained."
  • "Great service! Had the 5 cheese mac I did not find it very flavorful. Steak tasted like raw meat. Not the greatest spot for someone use to seasoned and flavorful food. A little pricey for the Small portions"
  • "Staff were really attentive and friendly which I was impressed with."
  • "The staff were fantastic! Very hospitable and kind, their knowledge and recommendations were top tier."

Cons:

  • "Somehow didn’t quite provide the experience I’d hoped for. Cheese delicious but bring your magnifying glass and snacks along to supplement their portions."
  • "Wasn't quite what I expected as I've been to a few cheese themed restaurants, This wasn't really a cheese bar as it was a Burger/Sandwich joint that had a lot of cheese on the products and sometimes too much."
  • "It took ages to get attended. They also forgot my drink and I have to ask for it several times And the food was just ok. Not as good as I was expecting."
  • "Was very excited to visit - and following a compulsory £10pp deposit we were hoping the experience would be a great one! Whilst the cheese and food was AMAZING, the staff were unfriendly, un-welcoming."
  • "Apologies for the pics. Didn't have enough time to take sexy ones as I wanted to try these bad boys ASAP."

Food Quality

Pros:

  • "Absolutely delicious! The truffle cheese burger and grilled cheese sandwiches are AMAZING!"
  • "Truffle cheese chips was lovely and flavourful, and the christmas special pork belly bites was delicious."
  • "Everything we tried was really tasty, really liked the cheese plate."
  • "Although normally British cuisine is definitely not a good thing, this place is great, so as their offering of cheese."

Cons:

  • "The blue cheese raclette was a bit underwhelming, very oily with the melted cheese, and the beef was tough and not seasoned."
  • "The mac and cheese and cheese puffs were really good. Also, enjoyed the wine selection."
  • "The food comprises of boiled potatoes and cauliflower, every so lightly seasoned, ham and cornichons onto which melting cheese from the chef is then scraped on. A simple but nicely dressed leaf salad is also provided."
  • "The burger was faaar to rich and the and the other bits we had lacked that special touch to make them memorable."

Value for Money

Pros:

  • "The total for two people was 45 pounds which we felt was very great value for the quality, quantity and service."
  • "I came on raclette night and it's a fixed £20 all you can eat affair and an additional £12 all you can drink house wine for 90 minutes."

Cons:

  • "Somehow didn’t quite provide the experience I’d hoped for. Cheese delicious but bring your magnifying glass and snacks along to supplement their portions."
  • "Such a disappointment. We popped in to try their mozzarella sticks and grilled cheese sandwich and my partner got his grilled cheese easily 15 minutes before I got my dish."
  • "Such a shame. We tried the mozzarella sticks and don't get me wrong, they were lovely. But £9 for 3 sticks I find it excessive."
  • "The food is so rich I'm not sure you could eat huge portions. Our meal of two starters, two mains and a side dish, two drinks each came to about £70 which I don't think is unreasonable."

Facilities and Convenience

Pros:

  • "They have both indoor and outdoor seating. Would definitely pop in again."
  • "The Cheese Bar, a heaven for cheese fanatics near and far, Inside Camden Market, you'll see this place shine like a midnight star."

Cons:

  • "A bit small, and without a bathroom - but you can find the ones from the market nearby."
  • "Only real problem might be the lack of toilets in the place, but I guess it's a Camden lock thing."
  • "One point, the bathroom facilities are in the market and cost £1 to use."
  • "The only down side was that there isn’t a toilet in the restaurant itself; they give you a lanyard with a card to use the public toilets just outside for free."
