With its dimly-lit setting, you might think you’ve stumbled across Stirchley’s very own red-light district. But, while what’s inside is definitely naughty and indulgent, this Birmingham bar is the sort of place you won’t want to keep to yourself. It exclusively serves hand-picked, artisan wine and cheese.
If you’re salivating already, then let’s proceed. Cheddar has a simple motto written outside its front door: “Nice people drinking wine and eating cheese.” Inside, things are even simpler, as you unwind in this intimate, moody space that feels more like a mate’s warm kitchen (it even has its own projector!) than your usual cold, formal bars.
Perfect for date night or catching up with an old friend, Cheddar is conveniently located on Pershore Road—home to many of our favourite restaurants like Riverine Rabbit, Eat Vietnam, and Yardbirds, for dinner before or after. But you should be able to easily fill up on more than your fair share of cheese…
Build your own cheeseboard from £12.95, with a mix and match of UK and European cheeses, from Derwent White from Derbyshire to Italy’s iconic Taleggio. Each platter comes with grapes and crackers, but you can throw in plenty of extras like olives, nuts, salami and chutney. It’s a cheese-lover’s heaven!
When it comes to the drinks, the focus is on a select and balanced wine list spanning reds, whites, oranges and rosés—there’s even port and prosecco on the menu! Beyond that, you will find classic cocktails like Negroni and an Old Fashioned, as well as bottled beers and a selection of soft drinks.
Having had a bit of a makeover recently, there’s never been a better time to visit Cheddar. But let’s be honest, we had you at “cheese and wine”, right?
