The Cheese Bar in Camden

Loved it, the cheese was out of this world and the fondue was perfect for two. Thank you!

The raclette and the accompaniments was delicious. Both the front of house team and chefs were so welcoming and friendly. Thank you for the wonderful hospitality.

I came with my husband ,just for a nice rest and chill after a long walk at the Camden Market. And we were happy with the cheese we ordered, and also the friendly server named Rim. She has really excellent customer service and professionalism.

We had some really good grilled cheese takeaways.

My husband and I visited on Sunday for a fondue at the Cheese Bar. It was really enjoyable, lots of sour dough bread and potatoes to dip into the cheese, plus a carafe of wine. Very nostalgic, I haven’t had a fondue since the 80s! Lovely staff and a good vibe all round. Would recommend.

Perfect place for cheese lovers. Delicious at a fair price. You definitely need to try the Stilton Affogato

Really nice little place with a great selection of dishes and boards to try. If you like cheese you'll love trying the various melts and sandwiches. Decent prices and food produced quickly by friendly, caring staff.

Absolutely delicious! You can try several local cheeses with its exact combination of jelly or crackers. Great environment.

A clever idea. Good location. Good service. Let down by disappointing food presentation and high prices. I felt I could have made a better job of the toasted cheese sandwich at home.

It was okay. Maybe I’m missing the hype.

We ate here as a family and it was great, the staff were really friendly and welcoming. The food was great and came really quickly and was really tasty. Would definitely come back here again!

The truffle burger and the cheese sandwich are highly recommended!

Good cheese and wine in a quiet haven in the bustling Camden Market.

A must, if you go to Camden. Forget all the food stalls trying to sell you tiktok streetfood. Sit in and have crazy cheese food!

Nice grilled cheese sandwich. Very tasty. We ordered from the cart and sat on the tables. £8 was pretty expensive for a cheese toastie.

Terrible service! Asked the female waitress for a menu 3 times, terrible attitude. Asked the owner for a bottle of wine and sparkling water with NO ice and NO lemon. 15 minutes later the female served our wine to another table, then brought it to ours, poured it into the glasses and spilt it on the table. The owner then arrived with the sparkling water and a glass with ice AND lemon !!! Also NO TOILETS For customers !!!

Food wasn't really hot Service very friendly If you like very strong cheese, this is the place for you. It wasn't my cup of tea. There is no toilet in the restaurant.

Honestly an unreal place. The staff were so friendly and informative. They provide suggestions without being forceful. I got the 3 cheese plate and only knew 1 cheese I wanted so I got great recommendations for the other 2 cheeses. I was also recommended the blue cheese ice cream which was actually amazing!! Banging tunes as well.

We heard about this place and wanted to go there for quite a time; finally we were nearby and hungry. From the start it felt awkward but we decided to stay. The staff were disorganised and distracted. They were talking mainly to each other, whispering, laughing. When I tried to get their attention one of them just gave me instant fake smile. The food was good but the atmosphere didn’t pass the test. At the end we were waiting for any sign of courtesy but no one even bothered to say thank you, bye. And as we both had the same feeling, we were actually looking into their direction while leaving to see where it’s going. If the point was to make customers uninterested in another visit then that will do it.

I made a booking a month in advance I had a last minute cancellation. I live in Hong Kong and paid a deposit. The person who called me was not very clear and just to be refunded was not good. Do not come if you are a big group or plan in advance. On response to below my signal was poor so apologies for “hanging up” and having a email after this review and two hours before meeting a large group is of limited practical help.

Tolles essen mit motiviertem Personal. Die Cocktails sind sehr zu empfehlen und Mac and Cheese für 7 Pounds (Montags) sehr fair und lecker.

Definitely the best grill cheese I've ever had. Camden is so cool

If u want to eat a mediocre cheese sandwich this is the place to go. The staff didn’t make the experience any better.

If you are in London you MUST stop in Camden and try the chesee sandwiches here, all of them! Perfect to experience a cheese tasting with a nice wine! The staff is the best part, they are extremely accommodating and always professional and smiley. Do not forget to try their Vanilla Cheese cake, the best I have ever had!

Excellent cheese cuisine. Varied dishes. Including cheese desserts. Cozy place and friendly and helpful staff.

We had a blue cheese sandwich and mac & cheese along with beer. Blue cheese sandwich was Ok. The mac and cheese should be more sticky. Maybe it would be better to go for cheese platter and wine.

THE MOST ENJOYABLE EXPERIENCE!!! At Camden Market, a super different atmosphere, good (ambient) music… and the sandwiches and cheeses are out of this world!!!

If you love cheese like I do, this is the place for you. Friendly staff, welcoming, warm and all round great pace to be. The food was melt in your mouth, rich and tasteful. I highly recommend you visit this bar if you are ever in Camden Town.

Great food great service and lovely friendly staff.

The service at Cheese Bar was attentive and friendly, but unfortunately, the food didn’t live up to expectations. The mac & cheese lacked flavor, with not enough cheese to bring the dish to life. Overall, a disappointing experience given the hype.

The five cheese mac & cheese was bland. It tasted like it had one type of cheap cheese in it. Not what I'd expect from a mac & cheese with supposedly 5 cheeses!!. There wasn't enough cheese in it, so it was not creamy. The loose bit of macaroni fell from the fork. The service, however, was good. But I'll not be eating here again.

The burger patty was small, not many fries and the bun was dry. I would recommend choosing something other than one of the burgers. It would have been understandable if it was less than £15.

We went for dinner on Wednesday and got the Raclette night - for 1.5h its "all you can eat" Raclette. Must say it was rather disappointing. You can choose from baby potatoes, cauliflower, some ham and cornichons. And all of this is topped by grilled melted cheese. When i have asked for more cauliflower, but no potatoes, i was told that they have veggies in the restaurant and they don't have enough cauliflower for everyone. If its the only thing available that night surely they could have prepared. Didnt like the smell in the restaurant (it did not smell of cheese)..... Maybe I would have left a different review if i was visiting on the regular night and the full menu was available, but i will not be in a rush to visit again.

The Mac and cheese was bland and missing flavor. The atmosphere is near perfect with a great view of foot traffic of one of Camden’s business walking streets.

£7.50 for the most average truffle fries ever, just plain chips with a sprinkle of Parmesan and a tiny bit of truffle oil. In a “cheese bar” you’d expect to be more blown away than this, more cheese etc, maybe melted, especially at that price.

The truffle brie burger was incredible and the service was top notch! The cider was good too and when eating outside you can be right in front of the Amy Winehouse statue

The food is good, the burgers are good but I think the price is excessive, like almost everything in London. It cost us 4 hamburgers, two cokes and water, €93.

Very tasty sandwiches, but they could be a little bigger.

Absolutely fantastic service and idea. I got to try so many different types of cheeses and that brown sugar biscuit with gouda. AMAZING!

My husband booked us a quick lunch as part of ny 40th birthday celebrations as he knows how much I adore raclette cheese. We were gutted to find on the current menu it was a blue cheese raclette dish and I can't really dislike blue cheese. We were gutted BUT the mac n cheese was pretty good and the poutine DELICIOUS. The staff were nice and the strawberries n cream cocktail STUNNING! The guy had seen my 40 badge and on my disappointment due to lack of raclette, made me an equivalent with a candle in the top as a surprise at the end. Laughed so much and was so appreciated (even though we were so full) Amazing gesture. Place would benefit from air con and an on-site toilet too. If you're a cheese fan, I think you'll like it here!

We sat outside. The staff were lovely but Magda in particular could not do enough for us. She made our dining experience very special and even charged my phone for me (so I could check in to my hotel later), reminding me of a medication alarm I had set on my phone during our meal. We will definitely be back.

Good but a little bit expensive

I've got acute diarea and many pepole got diarea. And they was rude when I was told them this. They also force you to pay service charge. Stay away.

Lilia is amazing!!! She helped so much with our allergies 🥹

I was really looking forward to The Cheese Bar based on the menu. There were things we liked a lot (grilled cheese and cheese sticks) and things we didn't like so much (Mac n cheese). It's in Camden market, so incredibly loud and busy outside. The seating area inside is small. The service, however, is off the charts. They allowed us to bring in our luggage when we ate there coming directly from the airport.

Modern english food. Very friendy and tasty.

Really nice concept if you are a cheese lover. Their port&stilton affogato dessert is definitely the one to come back for!

Lovely stuff and the food is nice.

We stumbled upon this cheese bar by chance As good French people that we are, we wanted to taste English cheeses We came across a very nice French waiter who advised us and gave us lots of explanations about cheeses So we tasted several cheeses and their accompaniments The cheeses are excellent, 2 “complaints”: the portions are small, and it’s served with crackers, I think they would be better enjoyed with bread We also tasted dishes The truffle cheese burger was good

Amazing place. Small, but excellent service, food, and atmosphere. Wide variety of cheeses to pick from, including main dishes. The also have a good selection of beers and ciders, including port.

As a lover of cheese this place was amazing for me. Staff was very nice and attentive and the food was very good. I got the 5 cheese Mac as well as a 3 cheese sample board but forgot to take a picture before it was all eaten. They also give free water which I like!

Burger restaurant specializing in cheese. Quite delicious burger, accompanied by potatoes, with free sauce on the side. The meat was phenomenal, and the waitresses' treatment was quite pleasant.

The burger and fries were amazing! Best burger I’ve had in London. The service was great and the atmosphere was relaxed. Plenty of seating and the prices were reasonable. Highly recommend.

They have a deal for mac and cheese on Monday that is 6 pounds for a decent portion size with lots of cheese. The cheese is mild in the mac and cheese but they have a good variety of British cheeses that would be more flavourful. They also had a very tempting grilled cheese sandwich that was loaded with all kinds of cheese and we watched them make a ton just outside their shop. The Cheese Bar is located in Camden Market and has tables inside and outside to sit down. The closest metro is Camden Town and there are many shops and stalls to check out throughout the market.

Do you love cheese? Do you enjoy wine with your cheese? If you answered yes to either of these questions, this is the place for you. I had 5 Cheese Mac, cheesy truffle fries & a vanilla shake - as a cheese-loving person on the spectrum, it was a safe food haven. The Mac is very very nice and cheesy, and the crunchy breadcrumb topping and black pepper inside it was a pleasant eat. It's served in a... mini skillet? I think that's the name? The truffle fries.... Mmm. Exactly as tasty as I had hoped. If you haven't tried truffle fries, I would wager you are doing yourself a disservice. The vanilla shake isn't too vanilla-y (not quite vanilla-y enough for my taste, I prefer more shaken udder levels of vanilla), but it's a nice balance between creamy and smooth. Not too thick, not too thin. A Goldilocks shake in texture. I had to have 2, as the first one disappeared rather quickly. My plus 2 had the poutine - they said it was good, but Canadians do it better (having family in Canada, they are the expert). I tried a little, and I couldn't see the appeal. They also loved the truffle fries and the Mac (we shared a little), and felt the same way as I about both those two as well as the shake, also ordering a second shake. Pleasant service - very friendly, good timing (you can have a nice conversation and a good look through the menu before you order) and efficient. Not too long a wait, about 15-20 minutes or so. Wasn't keeping track though :p Atmosphere is nice, inside it's cooled and has modern design. Outside is still comfy, and you can people watch (added bonus) if that's your thing :) It rained, and the... Awnings? Umbrellas? Provided ample shelter. All in all, would recommend. Would also revisit if I am in the area again.

Courtesy, quality at reasonable price, top!

I ordered the Mac and cheese to share with my partner and in fairness the taste was great. What truly left a rotten taste in the mouth was pulling a finger nail out of my mouth that had previously been swimming around in the cheese. I spoke to a lady who at first thought I was showing her some cheese off of the plate. The manager then came out and I explained what had happened. I said that I would just like to leave and not pay for the food as to not make too much fuss. The manager seemed to take offense that I would complain and walked away. When he came back he was still unapologetic and said there's no point in him arguing over £6. All I was truly expecting was a sincere apology and I wouldnt of has to write this review.

Absolutely fantastic service and food. The poutine was amazing! Definitely plan to go again!

Good burger 🍔🍟 and honest prices Free unlimited (tap) water Nice waitresses

We thought we would try this place while we were in Camden as we love cheese and have been spoilt on cruise ships and of course, in France. We ordered a cheese plate and a craft of wine, the bill was over £42. Great service and friendly staff but the 3 cheeses, crackers and a tiny amount of pickle does not justify the high price tag. We were quite shocked at just how small the portions of everything was. The excuse was that it is specialty cheese, sorry but its special cheese anywhere you go! Give value and increase the portions, that might encourage a repeat customer, instead of mostly tourists. Balanced and honest thoughts!

Had high hopes but this was a major disappointment. Lack luster service and the menu was good in theory however most good was bland at best. I had raclette and potato’s , daughter enjoyed her burger other daughter had mozzarella sticks, only 3 — for price not worth it

Cute spot in the middle of Camden Market. Cheeses from across the UK. It’s where comfort food meets corruption, in the best possible way. It’s an experience. We loved the how simple yet delicious the food was

Overall, my experience at the cheese bar was mixed. **Positives:** - **Food:** Generally good. The macaroni and cheese was tasty but lacked salt. The beer was also enjoyable. - **Service:** The staff were friendly and provided good service. **Negatives:** - **Kitchen Door:** The kitchen door was open, likely due to the heat. This is concerning given the area's mouse problem. - **Air Conditioning:** The place lacked air conditioning, making it uncomfortable when busy. - **Bar Design:** I didn't like the bar layout. Sitting at the bar meant seeing the dishwasher and staff cleaning glasses. A smaller bar area with more cozy tables would be better. Despite these issues, I might return for the food and friendly service. Improvements in air conditioning and bar design would enhance the experience.

Lovely option in Camden to eat something kind of unique: a grilled cheese sandwich. Service was super nice. It was very nice sitting at the bar stool and ordering directly to the bartender. Sandwich was simply delicious. Totally recommended.

Good experience in Camden at this cheese restaurant. We were able to enjoy delicious grilled cheese accompanied by onion pickles and honey!

Awesome grilled cheese sandwich!!

Exquisite cheeses. Simple location. Clean. Tidy. Camden Market a place that MUST be visited. I recommend it, very easy to find, about 10 meters from the Amy statue.

Great little place. Food was great and very reasonably priced. Service was great too!

I m on a diet but I really wanted something special ! Was my the best grilled cheese ever indeed! NUTRITION PER PORTION RDA Calories 541 Kcal 27% Fat 34 g 49% Saturated Fat 20 g 100% No very bad !

Nice place, and good cheese, watch out for the price, we pay for the place

A lot more disappointing than the last time I had the raclette.

Only negative is the lack of toilet!

I didnt fancy that it didn't have it's own bathroom, but excellent food, atmosphere and service.

Very nice service, the food was ok.

Some of the best service I’ve had and seen In London. Brilliant work from the guy and girl on Tuesday evening

The grilled mozzarella sandwich was highly appreciated.

Overall, it is okay. However, we were a bit disappointed with the portions. Other than this quality and service was good!

Great staff, but no poutine anymore. So, non merci! TABERNACLE!

Incredible cheese experience! We had a sampling of different starters, and two grilled cheese sandwiches, and we were in heaven with each bite! The different flavors and combinations of cheese dishes were just amazing -- exactly what you want on a cool evening after a long day of walking around Camden. Do not miss this spot!

Great restaurant, great service

Suitable place for a quick lunch break! Both the raclette and the toast were very good. The choice of beers needs to be improved.

This place really does do British independent cheese makers justice. From their delightful cheese board pairings, to their five-cheese Mac, from their beautifully made toasties, to their amazing fondues; it is a homage to all things fromage. If you are around Camden market and you love a cheese feast, you cannot go wrong popping across to The Cheese Bar. The only negative from me, is they dropped a small plate from their menu: their halloumi with hot honey and sage, which was just divine! (Though everything else makes up for it) Bring it back! ^^

Some super good classic cheese sandwiches! If you go through the market and everything is packed, you have the cart to order the sandwich and in 5 minutes you are eating a sandwich so comfortable in the middle of the market without waiting

The Brie and Truffle burger was amazing!!!

Concept étonnant au cœur du Camden Market. Très bon accueil et restaurant propre. Nous avons pris les macaronis aux 5 fromages et les puffs. 22£ pour deux sans boisson ni dessert. Assiette originale mais rien d'éclatant en bouche. A essayer quand même pour le test.

Very careful consideration of allergies on their part, very professional and friendly staff. Thank you for taking care of our niece. Address to remember.

The name says it all... If you love cheese or even just like it (how strange) you *must* visit. A truly magnificent meal.

Super bon surtout les toasts à la mozzarella avec bacon. Les serveuses très aimable je recommande Ps: frites un peu trop salé pour nous.

The place is very friendly and the cheese is quality. But the proportions in relation to the price are really very fair. Between two of us, we paid just over £30 for a dish and a drink each. Knowing that the dish was really small, and the gentleman's sandwich without fries (otherwise extra).

This was one place we wanted to visit. Didn't disappoint. Fabulous food. Great staff.

The best grilled cheese in London. The onion & cheddar is pure bliss

Inside the 7 dials market this is very well located in London. Great cheese selection and perfect for a a snack or a quick meal before enjoying the theatres around the area. Staff is very friendly.

Lovely experience for someone who likes cheese. We chose a selection of cheese on a cheese board and a pork belly special with some chutneys and it was delicious. Great concept and really friendly staff. It is quiet expensive for what it is but as an experience it was worth it

We popped in for a quick bite as we are huge cheese fans. It was nice and quiet inside which was a lovely change from the madness just outside in Camden market. The service was fantastic and the services were lovely. Sadly there was no mozzarella sticks left. Which maybe they could have told us before we looked at the menu. But we did try the cheese puffs, and I asked for a side of marinara sauce too which was lovely. Would defo go back as the rest of the dishes looked great. We had a strawberry gelato milkshake which you could taste the freshness, really thick and delicious. Overall a nice little stop, nice bites and good place to chill before heading back to the madness of Camden Market

A walk in after having a previous great experience with my partner and wanting my dad to experience it! We went for the fondue which was absolutely lovely with the server keeping an eye on it to ensure just the right heat. Absolute mountain of food and we came out very happy at the cost based on the amount of cheese! The only small downside would be the charcuterie which could have been presented slightly better!

good cheese fondue. if you don't like the smell there are tables outside under an umbrella. comfortable.

Nice experience, but I will not do it again

We came across this cheese bar in Camden and from the off we were intrigued, we went in and got a table for 2, we both had the 5 cheese macaroni with added bacon bits and some fries, the food is excellent l, the mac and cheese came out in like a little saucepan looking dish, it's was heavily loaded with all different types of cheeses. The fries were amazing too. It was a great atmosphere and everyone was sat round the bar in like a L kind of shape, of which Lillia provided us with great service and very attentive, thanks to Lillia and the chefs, would defo recommend great little gem.

Cheese bar was a lovely experience, the sharing platter and macaroni cheese was delicious. The person who served the food was helpful in choosing dishes and enthusiastic. P.s If you need to use the restroom, you will need to use toilets located in the centre.

Ordered a cheese plate to go and was pretty disappointed. Despite the cost of living driving up prices, the portions were very small for the price. We had to go buy more cheese somewhere else. I did express my disappointment in an open and kind manner, and the staff seemed untrained and unable to deal with this. They all walked away and obviously didn’t want to engage in addressing my concerns. I dropped it, acknowledging that it’s not the fault of staff and left feeling bad for them, being left ill equipped to deal with a complaint. You’re selling small portions of cheese at a high price, particularly high for take out. I’m assuming you feel your cheese is high quality and worth the price. The environment you’ve created is nice, and so the training of your staff should match what you are selling yourself to be.
