Excellent communication from cheese…

Excellent communication from cheese geek and DPD. Quick delivery, very well packaged, arrived in excellent condition. Bit naggy for reviews so ok I’ll do one. Purchased a random cheese selection of cheese that was v. close to date which was half price. Totally underwhelmed by the cheeses in the box. Bland, tasteless would be my summary. Apparently cheese geek didn’t send the right quantity so more emails and then another delivery so in the end I received about 1kg of bland cheese for the £20. Duplicates of bland cheese included. Regrettably, threw it out after trying it.
Better off going to Waitrose cheese counter. Doubt I’ll use it again and certainly not at the usual prices. Try cheesegeek and see what you think.

Hi Mr Lees,

Thank you very much for taking the time to share your feedback. I’m really pleased to hear you were happy with the communication, delivery, and packaging, and that everything arrived in perfect condition.

I’m genuinely sorry that the cheeses in your box didn’t deliver the enjoyment you were hoping for. While our Mystery Boxes are curated as a surprise selection of our shorter-dated cheeses looking for a good home, we still always aim to deliver them at peak ripeness and flavour, and I’m sorry this wasn’t your experience on this occasion.

We really value you giving us a try, and your comments have been shared with the team. We do hope we’ll have the opportunity to welcome you back in the future.

Best wishes,
Jen

Very well received birthday gift

Bought as a birthday gift for my sister, who can’t stop raving about how amazing all of the cheeses are.

Hi Joanne,

Thank you so much for the great review! We're over the moon to hear your sister enjoyed her cheesebox.

From the makers who craft each wheel to our Cheese Whisperers who hand-cut and wrap each wedge, a lot of love goes into our boxes. It's wonderful to hear that our customers are just as passionate about the yellow stuff!

Thanks for trusting us with your special gift! We hope to see you again next time you feel like spreading the cheesy joy 💛

Brilliant company

Easy to contact and quick to reply to any issues, I had a problem with the delivery company and Cheesegeek followed up with the company twice, sending out another cheese box when the first delivery took too long.

Hi Mrs Artis,

Thanks so much for your review - we’re really glad to hear the cheese was enjoyed and we truly appreciate the 4 stars!

I’m very sorry for the confusion around the delivery timing. All orders placed on our site are scheduled for delivery using our date picker at checkout, and on this occasion we can see that 9th April was selected. This is why there was a gap between ordering on 1st April and delivery.

Our boxes are only ever in transit for under 48 hours to ensure everything arrives in the best possible condition.

That said, I’m really sorry that your delivery arrived a day later than expected - we completely understand the impact that can have, especially when it's for a special gift.

If anything ever looks unclear, please don’t hesitate to reach out - we’re always happy to help and make sure everything lines up exactly as you need. You can reach us at hello@thecheesegeek.com.

Thanks again for trusting us with your order, and we hope to deliver an even smoother experience next time 🧀
