CHRISTMAS 2023
PRE-ORDERING
We kindly ask you to place your Christmas pre-orders via our website as it will helps us to forward plan and keep all the operations streamlined as much as possible.
However if you do require any assistance in selecting your Christmas cheese, please come and speak to us at the shop.
Please note, cheeses can last in the fridge, so it is not absolutely paramount to get it the day before Christmas.
Soft cheeses will last up to 2 weeks in the fridge; firm/hard cheeses will last up to a month in the fridge (if any mould develops on the surface, feel free to scrape it off and enjoy the rest of the cheese)
SHOPPING IN STORE
To keep everyone safe and comfortable, we will continue to limit the number of people allowed into the store.
See our Festive opening hours here.
If at all possible, please come to the shop alone to allow fellow shoppers to come in and be served at the same time.
If you need members of your family to help you choose your Christmas cheeses, please have a browse through our full cheese range from the comfort of your home on www.thecheeselady.co.uk
Our website has a number of very useful filters that will allow you to find cheeses by texture, milk, rennet type and even beverage they pair with! So if possible, please make yourself a shopping list before visiting the store.
If you want to pre-order your cheese, you can place your order on the website and opt for the “Pick Up” option.
