Nestled in the quiet back streets of Bedford is a treat for wine and cheese lovers.
The Decant Wine & Cheese Bar on Castle Lane is now in its sixth year of business and has become a popular stop for anyone looking to enjoy a glass of wine, or cheese from around the world.
Couples, friends, groups, all are welcome and are well looked after by the managing sommelier Nikolina and her colleague Marc, who between them have extensive knowledge of their craft.
Speaking to them while ordering and being guided through the different taste profiles as they help you match your chosen wines with their extensive cheese collection, you get the impression that what they don’t know about cheese and wine isn’t worth knowing.
And with good reason, with over 25 years of experience as a sommelier, pairing beautiful wines to the perfect accompanying cheeses.

While Decant Wine & Cheese Bar is perfect for a quick glass of wine and a nibble, it’s also just as good for a night out with friends or a date night for couples.
The versatile menu has something for all tastes and whether you want to just enjoy wine, or cheese, or both, you’ll be well looked after.
Alongside this more personal affair, Nikolina runs a monthly wine & cheese tasting experience and also offers this off-site for all types of functions.
They also offer a fortnightly bottomless brunch at only £35pp.

Wednesday – Thursday, 6pm – 11pm, Friday, 5pm – Midnight, Saturday, 12pm – Midnight (Last booking for each night, 9pm)
