The Cheese Barge is a 96ft decker vessel moored on Regent's Canal, serving seasonal cheese plates with innovative independent wine pairings. As the only fully cheese-focused restaurant in London, The Cheese Bar use fresh and locally sourced ingredients on the menu and every dish contains at least one type of British cheese.
The warm dining room incorporates a material palette with an emphasis on sustainability - from reused light fittings to recycled plastic tables, and smooth, leathery Richlite wall panels. As with the r50 till at their landside shop Funk on Colombia Road, the recycled paper composite will develop a lustre as it patinas over time, keeping up with the demands of the busy restaurant environment.
