   Like stepping into France. Staff lovely, cheese board great selection. Lots of bread and oatcakes to go with it. Wine was a house Merlot but very thin and disappointing, might have needed to warm up a little.

   Went with friend for lunch. We were the only people dining at the time. So slightly lacking in atmosphere. Also lap top/chalk board on other tables which didn’t give a great impression. Our server however was brilliant and asked us for dislikes/preferences. She then curated an excellent cheeseboard to our liking. Will definitely recommend and return!

   The quality of the food and wine was excellent and both were good value for money. We ordered a cheese and charcuterie board and a small plate, which was enough for a small lunch for 3, and both had a lovely selection of different cheeses and meats all accompanied by a nice mix of bread and oatcakes. The attitude of the staff was not so good. We didn’t feel particularly welcome, and having to go into the shop and queue with general customers to place our orders, took a bit of the shine off.. If this was addressed, it could have be a near perfect experience.

   Excellent value for money lunch deal, all the different cheese were explained & advised in order to eat, wine very good. Only criticism it was a bit cool due to the location of the door.

   A lovely experience at The Cheese Lounge, staff engaging, knowledgeable and kind. We did not want it to end! Shame it closed at 8pm ! We weren't aware of this at booking. However we understand it is a long day in the shop, we will return thanks again for a lovely evening of cheese and wine. Gillian

   If you want to eat wonderful cheeses washed down with lovely wine then you may want to stop off at Melissa Cheese Lounge in Edinburgh - lovely setting, lovely staff, great experience
