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."
