   Excellent value for money lunch deal, all the different cheese were explained & advised in order to eat, wine very good. Only criticism it was a bit cool due to the location of the door.

   A lovely experience at The Cheese Lounge, staff engaging, knowledgeable and kind. We did not want it to end! Shame it closed at 8pm ! We weren't aware of this at booking. However we understand it is a long day in the shop, we will return thanks again for a lovely evening of cheese and wine. Gillian

   If you want to eat wonderful cheeses washed down with lovely wine then you may want to stop off at Melissa Cheese Lounge in Edinburgh - lovely setting, lovely staff, great experience

   Lovely lunch treat. Amongst 3 we shared a bottle of wine, a cheese platter and small plate of meats. Good value.

   Lovely experience . We had a cheese platter, scotch egg and wine. Excellent server who explained the origin of all the cheeses. We were first in the lounge which was a little cold but soon warmed up once the heater was on. Well worth a visit

   The food and wine were excellent and the staff were extremely helpful and informative. It was a very quiet Sunday lunchtime. Only one other party were present and in a room of tiled surfaces, sound travels hence the rating for ambience.

    Cheese lounge is a must for cheese lovers. A cosy area at the back of Melli cheese shop in morningside. Where you can enjoy delicious cheese and or charcuterie served with bread and oatcakes. Their scotch eggs are also very tasty and there is a variety. There is music playing for atmosphere but not to loud so you can have a conversation. It’s is a nice treat for the afternoon and you certainly don’t need much of an evening meal when you get home. Mind we had scotch eggs and a cheese board for 2. The only down side for us was their website is out of date and they no longer do soup which was delicious in the past
