The Home of Britain's Best Cheddar
Posted on 31 July 2025
Great home cooking is rarely about fancy ingredients. There is so much joy to found in really good quality staples: handmade bread, fresh eggs and, everyone’s favourite, cheese.

Robin’s been part of the COOK family for 22 years now. He started out in our prep kitchen, where all the fresh food is prepped so it’s ready for the chefs to work their magic. These days, he’s our Head of Pastry, responsible for all the golden pies, quiche bases and buttery crumble toppings that come out of our kitchens.
