Here’s Where To Go For The Best Fondue In London
The cold weather is officially here, although our love of cheese keeps us cosy all year long. We’ve rounded up London’s best fondue restaurants so you can get your fix. Scroll on for some serious cheese goodness…
The Cheese Barge
Kicking off the list is fondue in a truly unique location. Situated on the canal just next to Paddington Station, The Cheese Barge is bringing back its Fondue Thursdays for the colder months. Choose from two house fondues and a monthly changing special, served with Coombeshead sourdough, potatoes, cornichon and a choice of truffle mushrooms or cauliflower.
If you’re looking for a truly unique fondue experience, this is definitely one to try. The boat is super buzzy – I’d recommend ordering a cured meats platter alongside the fondue to make sure you pick up every last bit of cheese.

But the star of the show is really the exquisite fondue – made with melted comté and gruyère cheese, confit garlic and riesling wine, the delicious preparation is served with a selection of meats or vegetables, new potatoes and baguette.
