“Fantastic cheese selection. Excellent staff.”
“After reading great reviews we had to visit whilst on holiday and we are so glad we did. The gentleman that served us was friendly, helpful and patient with me asking lots of questions about the cheese and taking ages to decide as there’s so much choice! Any size can be cut. We asked if he would recommend a cheese based on those we’d already chosen - wow I’m glad we did as the one we had we’d never have picked ourselves and turned out to be our favourite. If you love cheese or want to try some new cheese you must visit this place. Also stocks a great selection of other treats and foods.”
“Yummy Picnic”
"My partner and I had a delightful lunch from the Forest Deli which we took with us the Sculpture trail for a yummy picnic. We opted for some quiches, brownie, flapjack, crisps, some cheese, crackers and some drinks which were all utterly delicious. If you are looking for delicious and local food products then I would highly recommend the Forest Deli."
"A must stop and shop in the Forest of Dean."
"Amazing place, always recommend for gifts or just any reason to treat yourself. Great friendly service with excellent product knowledge and it sounds like they work closely with their suppliers. A must stop and shop in the Forest of Dean."
"Everyone enjoyed the Hampers"
I decided to get Christmas hampers for the family from The Forest Deli after they did an excellent job with providing us with the cheese for our wedding. The service both times was impeccable and everyone enjoyed the hampers. I would recommend a visit to anyone in the area.
"Great choice of cheeses"
"Excellent visit very friendly and helpful owner. Great choice of cheeses plus loads of other goods in the deli section Superb sausage rolls and brownies. I highly recommend a visit"

Keeping it local
We stock a wide range of Forest of Dean and Wye Valley fabulous produce, and will always prioritise local suppliers. Not just cheese, but honey, preserves, beers, ciders, wines and even local gins. We have our own locally roasted coffee blend, fudge and fabulous spice blends. Something for everyone.
We opened Forest Deli in March 2018 purely through our love of cheese and a lack of availability locally. Debbie loves to cook and is a trained chef and Simon’s hobbies have always revolved around food and drink.
We always prioritise local suppliers wherever possible, and from both sides of the border as Debbie is Welsh and Simon is from Gloucester, so you can be sure of a wide selection!
Please do pop in and say hi, we’re always very happy to talk anything food and drink!
