Visiting London?
Welcome to London!
Authentic British & Irish Gifts and Delicious Treats – Delivered Directly to Your Hotel
Skip the tourist traps. Taste the real London. We are Ada & Vera, an independent British & Irish cheesemonger and confectioner. We deliver our very special luxury boxes straight to your hotel concierge, so they are waiting for you when you return from exploring the city.
Order before 2pm and Buttons will have your box with your hotel reception or concierge by 10pm the same day, anywhere in central London (Zones 1–3). Order later and it arrives the next day. Ada’s counter rests on Mondays (and closes at noon on Sundays); Vera’s kitchen rests on Sundays. Cheese and chocolate set out from different places, so if you order both they will arrive as two parcels. Chocolates and curiosities travel further, too, and can be sent to any UK address. Staying a little longer? Choose a delivery date when you order and we’ll hold it for you.

Choose Your Box
1. The Quiet Night In (Ada's Recommendation)
Exhausted after a long flight or a day exploring the streets of London?
Our Ada's Cheese Box is the perfect hotel room dinner. Authentic British & Irish cheeses, selected for their delicious flavour. Simply perfect for a relaxing night in your robe.
2. Picnic in the Park (Ada's Choice)
Heading to Hyde Park, Regent's Park, or Primrose Hill? Don't settle for a soggy supermarket sandwich. Ada has packed this box to be perfectly portable. Find a patch of green grass, watch the swans and the ducks, and enjoy a proper British lunch outdoors.
- Perfect for: A sunny afternoon break or a romantic sunset on the grass.
- Includes: Delicious British & Irish cheeses, artisanal crackers and chutney.
3. The Sweet Treat & Perfect Gift (Vera's Choice)
Whether you need a moment of midnight luxury in your hotel room, or a beautiful British gift to take home to loved ones, Vera has you covered. Order before 2pm and they, too, are with your concierge the same evening.
Our chocolates and sweets are handmade in England and packaged in our signature stunning boxes. They travel beautifully – if you can resist eating them before you get to the airport!
- Perfect for: Late night sweetness, or a sophisticated gift for friends and family back home.
- Includes: Artisanal chocolates, chocolate honeycomb and signature treats.
4. The Curious Souvenir (Buttons' Choice)
Cats are naturally curious, and Buttons is the most curious of them all.
When he isn't managing the concierge desk, Buttons spends his time mudlarking along the banks of the River Thames. He scours the city for hidden treasures – from Victorian clay pipes and river-smoothed pebbles to vintage tins and forgotten maps.
Skip the plastic keychains and junk made somewhere else. Take home a piece of genuine London history, sniffed and selected by our resident connoisseur of the curious.
- Perfect for: History lovers and those who want a unique souvenir with a story.
- Includes: A curated and tasteful selection of London oddities, vintage finds, and perhaps a lucky pebble.
Have a wonderful stay in London
We hope our city treats you well. Whether you are here for a few nights or a few weeks, we would be honoured to make your stay a little more delicious.
If you have any special requests for your box, simply leave a note at checkout. Buttons has also written his own guide to London, should you want a second opinion on where to wander.
Warmly,
Ada, Vera & Buttons
Suitcase ready. Concierge approved. Genuine London goods.
