St Giles Cheese, Northampton


It is pleasing to find a shop on the internet, travel there and find it is just as good as you hoped it would be.

From the St Giles Cheese website:
Hi, we are Steve & Caroline Ward and we opened St Giles Cheese in July 2010. On returning from France we became frustrated at just how poor the availability of good cheese (and bread, wine & pretty much everything else) was in the UK. So we set about jumping in headlong with very little research and no food retail experience!! Twelve weeks later the doors of our little emporium opened. 
Our plan was (and still is) simple: to source some of the amazing cheeses from around Great Britain and Europe that are not freely available in the supermarkets. From the best West Country cheddars to fresh goats cheese from France, each one of our cheeses has been selected by us for its quality and flavour. 
We soon realised if we applied this ‘Best is Best’ principle to all our products we could offer our customers a real alternative choice to the bland homogenised fodder found on the Supermarket shelves.
