The Cork and Truckle

You'll find yourself on one of Bath's loveliest Georgian squares, where The Cork and Truckle sits like a neighbourhood secret that everyone should know about. This is where locals come when they actually want something good — a proper cheesemonger's counter stocked with things you won't find in supermarkets, paired with wines that genuinely make sense alongside the cheese. It's unpretentious but knowledgeable, the kind of place where the staff actually care about what they're selling and can talk you through why that particular Cornish cheddar is worth your money.
