No2 is an innovative cheese and wine shop, selling classical favourites alongside, raw, organic and pasteurised cheese made by smaller producers from the British Isles – our wine shop prides itself on an ever-increasing number of hand-made English wines. Complimenting the cheese and wine is a superb British deli counter celebrating award winning British artisan producers of meats, and smoked salmon.
