Grill My Cheese
Pun-tasticly named grilled cheeses
When an establishment names one of their dishes Jay-cheese and Bean-once, do you really need any more reason to go? Baby Got Mac is a winning combination of sourdough bread, mac’n’cheese, cheese, pulled pork and BBQ sauce to give you an idea of what you can expect. Other names to get you guessing include Slumdog Grillionaire, Hey Pesto! and PB & J.

The Cheese Truck
More than just a cheese toastie
In our youth we ran for the ice cream truck, in our adulthood we run for The Cheese Truck. Tempting us with options like goats cheese, honey and walnut, and Stilton, bacon and pear chutney there’s no way we’ll manage to run anywhere after tucking into one of those gooey offerings. The truck tootles around London with regular spots at KERB and Maltby Street Market plus you can also expect to find them popping up at various festivals during summer.

Melt Room
The grilled cheese sandwich goes gourmet
When a brave New Yorker hopped the pond he was disappointed in our sad grilled cheese offerings and set out to show Londoners what we’ve been missing out on. After months of hard graft by sampling a variety of breads, cheeses and meats, the menu of the Melt Room was created with winning combinations of pastrami, mushroom, horseradish, red leicestershire and cheddar. Satisfy your sweet tooth with the Nutella & mascarpone melt in milk bread.

Dishoom
Spice up a classic
The ever popular restaurant Dishoom’s chilli cheese toast is a generous slathering of cheddar cheese on white bloomer bread, topped with chopped green chillies for that unmissable Bombay-style kick. Snaz it up by having it at breakfast in the form of Kejriwal, where the chilli cheese toast is topped with two fried eggs.
