Cathedral City Cheddar

Cathedral City is a brand of Cheddar cheese which is manufactured by Saputo Dairy UK in Cornwall in the United Kingdom. Cathedral City's brand and logo is based on Wells Cathedral in Somerset.

The original owners of the brand, Mendip Foods, were based in the cathedral city of Wells in Somerset. Dairy Crest bought the brand from Mendip Foods Ltd in July 1995, moving production to Davidstow in Cornwall, which has neither city status nor a cathedral.

In 2019, Saputo bought Dairy Crest.

As of May 2026, the cheese is manufactured at Davidstow Creamery and matured at the distribution centre at Nuneaton.

The brand was launched in Canada and the United States in 2020.

In 2014, Cathedral City was cited in research published by the British Medical Journal highlighting the fact that branded cheeses generally had higher salt content than supermarket own-brands.

YouGov’s BrandIndex ranks Cathedral City the most popular brand in the Chilled/Frozen, Packaged Foods sector in Great Britain.
