Mons Cheesemongers


Recommended Posts

Not a pop-up.

It's by Franklins farm shop.

To some it'll be a premium cheese emporium with great quality and choice, to others a jumped-up over-priced privileged cheese shop which could be avoided by buying 500g 3-for-2 at Co-Op.

Just to state the predictable before the diatribe begins.

I'll be popping in myself for a treat now and again hopefully to learn something as apparently this guy knows his shit.

Could give the Cheese Block a run for it's money.


Don't actually eat much cheese myself. Tend to buy Stilton (I get fads)occasionally, but it seems to

sit at the back of the fridge till it goes rotten and gets thrown away.


One of those food stuffs I wished I liked. Bit like Tomatoes which I have a weired phobia for.


Foxy

Do hope he also knows his cheese!!!

Cheese Block has other items other than cheese, things like charcuterie etc. I hope both survive.


Mons is new and pretty dandy. And Mr Mons is a renowned cheese monger of some repute.


His shop is a place where many will flock from miles around I suspect. It looks interesting too if you look at the walls and floor, they're designed to keep the climate good for tip-top cheese conditioning.

    • Loving the arm chair speculation on here  Blimey how long before this gets spun out to be a drug dealer welding a sawn off whilst driving away from a smash and grab at the coop cash machine flipped his car and landed on a bollard type post  Where's the green cross code man when you need him ? 
    • If you haven't already watched this totally shocking docudrama on Channel 4 then make sure you watch it and tell everyone you know to watch It It lays bare the scandalous, harmful and lethal  (in some cases) behaviour of the water companies since privatisation.  I for one didn't realise that the water companies pay the regulator/environment agency to regulate them in one mega conflict of interest.   This is as shocking as the post office/postmasters scandal with even more far reaching consequences.
    • We have been going to Franklins for many years. On the whole we have found both the food and service extremely good,  and good value for money, but there have been one or two low points, including unfortunately a very expensive but disappointing  meal with friends which I was paying for. I think it may depend on who is in the kitchen. We had a really excellent meal from their Christmas menu before Christmas this year, which for the quality of the food and cooking we didn't feel was expensive at all. I think it would be a real shame if it was turned into a pub. It isn't that kind of place. That's why we like it.
