Champagne + Fromage Greenwich is a French bistro at 34 Greenwich Church Street beside Greenwich Market. It specialises in the natural partnership between artisan cheese and Champagne, sourcing bottles, cheese and cured meat from independent producers in France. The intimate setting works well for a tasting flight, a sharing board or a relaxed meal built around several rich savoury plates.
Sharing boards offer selections of three or five cheeses, cured meats or a mixture with tapenade, bread and condiments. Small plates include olives, baby saucisson, duck rillettes and a changing terrine. Oysters add a fresh contrast, while the team can guide diners through different cheese families and suggest Champagne with enough acidity and depth to complement each style.
Warm dishes place melted cheese at the centre of the table. Camembert can be baked with garlic and herbs, figs and thyme, honey and rosemary or truffle, ready for bread to be dipped into it. Raclette is scraped over roasted potatoes and can be combined with salad, blue cheese, cured meat, truffle or duck, while fondue brings Emmental, Gruyère and Comté together with white wine.
Duck confit, Montbéliard sausage and other French specialities make the menu substantial enough for dinner. Macarons and caramelised canelés provide a concise sweet finish. Grower Champagne is available by the glass, bottle or tasting flight, supported by wine, beer and cocktails, so diners can compare classic brut, rosé, blanc de blancs and other distinct expressions alongside the food.
