About This Place

Located in the charming town of Abergavenny, Madame Fromage is much more than just a café or cheese shop—it's a delightful haven for cheese enthusiasts and food lovers alike. This unique establishment masterfully combines the warmth of a family-run café with the curated expertise of a specialist cheese and ham shop, all while offering convenient delivery services and bespoke catering options. Whether you’re stepping in for a quick bite, ordering a fabulous takeaway, or planning an event centerpiece, Madame Fromage brings exceptional quality and heartfelt hospitality to every experience.

Step inside the cozy space at 16 Nevill Street and you are immediately greeted by the inviting aroma of freshly baked goods and a tempting array of artisanal cheeses. The café’s menu reads like a love letter to cheese and comfort food, with highlights sure to excite any palate. Indulge in the classic Croque Monsieur or savor the melting goodness of a Hot Filled Croissant, brimming with rich, savory flavors. The Welsh Rarebit Cheese on Toast stands out as a perfectly nostalgic choice, its creamy tang paired beautifully with a crisp Side Salad or the fresh zestiness of their Goats Cheese Salad.

For something heartier, the Mexican Chilli Bean Soup and Bacon and Cheese options provide a warming, satisfying meal, while the Veggie Grazing Box offers a colorful, wholesome spread perfect for those seeking lighter, meat-free delights. And for dessert lovers, the Carrot Cake and the indulgent Jamesons Coffee Raspberry and Frangipane Tart offer the perfect sweet finish, balancing textures and flavors with heavenly finesse.

Madame Fromage’s seasonal specials add an extra layer of seasonal magic to every visit. Imagine cozying up with a Pumpkin Spiced Coffee or delighting in the rich, velvety notes of a Praline Hot Chocolate. For celebratory moments, their selection of Boizel Brut Reserve and Rosé Absolu Champagne elevates any occasion with bubbly sophistication. The inventive Fall Maple Sangria or the warming Spiced Espresso Martini showcase the café’s flair for crafting drinks that are as creative as they are comforting.

The Grazing and Platter Collection offers a perfect way to enjoy Madame Fromage at home or with friends. Their generously portioned Grazing Platters, ranging from a modest £35 to an impressive XL size, are filled with a curated selection of cheeses, meats, and nibbles that epitomize indulgence and sharing spirit. Likewise, thoughtfully assembled hampers such as the Signature Cheese Hamper or Nibbles & Wine Hamper make exquisite gifts and memorable treats.

Customers frequently sing praises not only for the outstanding food but also for the welcoming and attentive service that frames each dining experience. “Absolutely STUNNING lunch here, huge portions and so, so tasty. Well worth the money,” shares Itz Bee, capturing the warm, personalized attention the staff provide amid a bustling atmosphere. Sparky echoes the sentiment, noting the consistently generous portions and the friendly welcome extended to dogs and walkers alike, especially during seasonal periods when festive offerings come alive.

Whether you’re craving a comforting bacon roll after a countryside stroll or looking to impress with a beautiful takeaway ploughman’s, Madame Fromage hits every note with authenticity and care. The passion for homemade, top-quality ingredients shines through every bite, making it “a place that you don’t wanna miss,” as Carmen Petrovici warmly attests. With such a blend of delectable offerings and heartfelt hospitality, visiting Madame Fromage feels a bit like discovering a secret slice of culinary heaven in the heart of Abergavenny.

    Absolutely STUNNING lunch here, huge portions and so, so tasty. Well worth the money. Staff are lovely and welcoming and even though its Christmas Eve and they wre super busy they still made time to ensure every customer was treated individually and with care. Thank you

    Had a delicious lunch here. The beer, bacon and cheese soup was great! And the cheese scones fantastic! Staff were super friendly, really accommodating ensuring our group and dogs got a table inside when it started raining outside. We’d highly recommend.

    We very frequently visit this cafe and always leave satisfied. The portions are plentiful often leaving new visitors to gasp at the quantity, but it doesn't disappoint in quality. We always stop when on our dog walk and I always have to make the hard decisions between a bacon bap, stuffed croissant or a hot baguette. Christmas time is the best, as it is just round the corner you will likely find me there digging into some of the Christmas menu items. Did I mention its a family run business who also sell a wide variety of cheese Do yourself a favour, when you next visit Abergavenny go for a walk around castle meadows and stop for lunch at Madam Fromage. Be warned the cake portions are not small

    A stunning takeaway ploughman's for two. Everything was so delicious, particularly the sausage roll. The service when ordering and collecting was also superb. Definitely want to revisit to sit in their lovely cafe next time!

    This is a great little venue just off the main high street. Service was impeccable and the food was super fresh and tasty. I ordered the mozzarella, pesto and tomato baguette and my partner ordered the goats cheese, bacon and onion baguette. Coffee was excellent quality too. Staff super friendly. Will be back. Accepts card and cash, unlike other tax dodging cafe venues in Abergavenny.

    My wife and I ate here on Saturday lunchtime. Although busy, the food arrived in a timely fashion and was good value and excellent quality. The waiting staff were friendly and attentive. The dish pictured here is their Croque Monsieur with additional Egg on top, it was £14.95 (April 2025). The included fresh salad added a great balance to the dish. Recommended.

    Highly recommend! Probably one of my favourite hot chocolates. Food was great, big portion. Would 100% come again. Staff were very friendly and great atmosphere. Only thing is that there is no toilet - but there is a public one at the market.
