We had a lovely afternoon, the staff were very helpful & explained all about the cheese we had, It was also a lovely venue.

Enjoy an artisan afternoon tea with Champagne + Fromage, a family run business that specialises in sourcing French produce and champagne from small artisan producers.
Tucked away in three locations, each cosy and intimate shop gives you a chance to step away from the hustle of everyday life. Take afternoon tea for two, with a cheeky French twist. Discuss your cheese preferences with the team, and allow them to select a beautiful bespoke array. Classic pairings include a creamy Brillat - Savarin served with sweet Amarena cherries, 30-month aged Comte with quince paste, truffled Brie, or fresh goat’s cheese drizzled with local honey, with warm crusty French baguette.
Finish off with traditional pink Reims biscuits, a selection of macarons and caneles, a regional speciality from Bordeaux. Generous cups of tea and a glass of Champagne complete a relaxed afternoon for two.
On arrival at your chosen Champagne + Fromage you’ll be warmly welcomed by a member of staff and shown to your pre-booked table for two. You’ll be served a glass of Champagne each from the month’s selection, and then you’ll be able to take your pick of four cheeses from an extensive range available, or just have the waiters pull together a selection that’ll go best with your Champagne or showcase the bistro’s offerings, which will be served on a cheeseboard with tapenades and rustic bread.
On the sweet side you’ll have macarons, biscuits roses and a sweet canelé (a kind of French pastry/cake), all to be enjoyed with your choice of tea from the month’s selection.
