Cheese Done Differently
An ideal stop for a light lunch after exploring Rochester, offering a relaxed place to pause, refuel and watch the rhythm of the High Street.
Nestled on Rochester High Street, The Cheese Room is the kind of cosy, old world spot that feels like a open local secret — and definitely one to add to your must-visit list. Think warm, welcoming wooden interiors, the sound of relaxed gentle chatter, and a menu that’s a celebration of cheese in all its glory.
Whether you pop in for breakfast, lunch or dinner, you’ll find toasties, Mac & Cheese, small plates and sharing boards — plus a generous helping of vegan and gluten-free options, so everyone’s catered for.
Pair your meal with one of the many drinks from the small bar. From piping hot brewed coffee to a seriously impressive gin list. Settle in upstairs in the first-floor “gin room”, or enjoy a bit of alfresco dining overlooking Rochester Castle (when the English weather plays along).
Perfect for a laid-back catch-up, a casual date night or just an excuse to indulge in good food and good company.
