## Reviews

Rated **4** on Google, 58 reviews, as at October 2026.
> I picked up a “My Happy Box” for my travels from Charing Cross Cheesery in the Riverside Marketplace which was the perfect take away option for 1-2 people to share. Perfect for a picnic. Smoked cheddar and Brie were both absolutely delicious, highly impressed!!, Erin, 3 months ago
> Was super disappointed by the New Yorker toastie I had here - for $13, was expecting something a bit more exciting. I was given two regular pieces of bread with one very small slice of roast beef and one half of a pickle in the entire sandwich! Wouldn’t recommend. Was going to purchase some deli cheese after I had lunch but was just too saddened by this!, s g, a year ago
> Cheese, cheese & more cheese! Including $1 extra for gluten free bread which is great! I had the blue cheese & pear option and my friend had the roasted chicken with Brie & cranberry. Both were great and ready in under 10 minutes. Award winning cheese! Yum!, Janita Patrick, 2 years ago
