At 34 avenue Alfred Borriglione, in Nice's residential northern quarter between Lingostière and Cimiez, SCARANTINO La Fromagerie has built in a few years one of the finest reputations on the Nice cheese scene outside tourist zones. Its 4.5/5 rating from over 100 reviews makes it one of the city's highest-rated fromageries — a score reflecting remarkable consistency and service quality.
SCARANTINO positions itself on a quality organic and farmhouse cheese offer — an exigence attracting clients sensitive to responsible production methods. Cheeses are selected from artisan producers committed to respectful practices: certified organic farming, free-range raising, quality raw milk.
SCARANTINO stands out for its practical services: bespoke cheese caterer service for events, weddings and professional aperitifs, and home delivery within an extended Nice perimeter. These service offerings make SCARANTINO particularly practical for northern Nice residents who don't always have time to shop during the day.
Organic cheeses from €3.50/100g. Delivery available. Caterer service on request.
Highlights: The 100+ reviews confirm consistent quality and welcome. The organic and farmhouse commitment is very appreciated. The caterer service is described as excellent and well-organised. Home delivery is a rare service in Nice fromagerie. Warm welcome and personalised advice are regularly mentioned.
Areas for improvement: The address is off-centre for tourists. Evening-only hours (Thu-Fri-Sat 6:30pm-10pm per some sources) need verification. Notoriety remains primarily local.
Overall: SCARANTINO is northern Nice's finest fromagerie — a quality organic and farmhouse address, highly rated and practical thanks to delivery and caterer services.
