George Mewes celebrated the 10th anniversary of its Glasgow shop opening earlier this year. It is now an established West End landmark. And deservedly so.

Read moreWords to not express how fantastic this shop and their staff are. Stopped in for Raclette cheese this NYE and it was some of the best Raclette cheese we have ever had, and cut perfectly by the friendly staff.

The staff are always sure to make sure you find the best on whats available for what you are looking for and are happy to let you sample anything to help you find something you will enjoy. We definitely recommend letting the staff give you suggestions!
Overall a must visit....
