Cheese + Fizz

Avoid! Worst place in Brixton market! Unfriendly, overpriced, totally mediocre! Go anywhere else but here. Worst experience ive ever had.

Nonchalant, passive aggressive staff who purposely try to rip you off. AVOID! Genuinely appalled and insulted by the "customer service" - even the word customer seems a stretch when we were treated like an inconvenience for merely showing up and politely asking for dinner in exchange for money. Subjected to a bizarre attitude as soon as we arrived, meaning we were so uncomfortable we only ordered 1 raclette plate and a glass of wine as we wanted to scarper ASAP for a real dinner - one where we could feel respected as human beings and treated like paying customers. Waiter asked if we wanted to split the bill without showing it to us to check. Being trusting we paid - to find he had charged for an extra raclette plate! 13 for something we did not order, and certainly did not receive. We really had to try to flag his attention to get him back to actually show us our bill. After we saw what he was clearly trying to hide, he tried to claim we asked for two plates. We reminded him he came back to check our order (it wasn't written down) of one plate, and that we only received one plate. Side point it was tiny (to the point we thought more was coming out) and we left starving. He then tried to claim he could only refund one of us - not sure what glitch in technology could explain that - but we were so desperate to leave we stayed polite and just went with it. Separately, we were sassily told we couldn't sit in the warm sheltered area as it was 'booked' even though no one showed up. Another sad thing is this place seems pretty famous in the market for being awful, as we spoke to other customers after escaping. The customer service being comparable to what rats in prison get was universal - but even more shockingly other customers said this place tries to rip people off by serving them whatever cheese they have leftover - not necessarily what it says on the menu. After seeing their working style and experiencing the attempted ripping off first hand, this seems very probable. Maybe one or two of these issues would have been ok, but the combination sprinkled with the horrendous attitude was really just unacceptable. Never left a 1 star review in my life but this place needs to be called out.

nice wine and nibbles! Cheese boards a bit expensive considering the portions but great selection of choice. Really friendly female server but the owner was so rude and passive aggressive because we decided not to get a raclette. We still spent 60 (1 hour) but this was not good enough for him. Put off by his lack of customer service. The heaters are broken so the venue is cold. 2 other cheese and wine options in the market that id recommend instead!
