charming, rustic gem that blends a working farm with a cozy restaurant and café. Perfect for families, brunch lovers, or anyone seeking fresh, wholesome food in a serene countryside setting. The farm-to-table ethos shines through in every dish, making it a refreshing escape from the city hustle. Farm Breakfast Platter Highlighted by golden-yolked eggs (straight from their hens!), crispy , sourdough toast, and roasted tomatoes. Freshness is undeniable. Avocado & Poached Egg Toast. Creamy avocado on thick artisan bread, topped with vibrant microgreens ..simple but stellar. .. Service Friendly and down-to-earth staff who clearly care about the farm’s mission. Servers happily explained ingredient origins. Weekend brunch service slowed slightly during peak hours, but the wait felt worthwhile.

Excellent experience at Yolk Farm. Visited as a family of 4 for a break on a long journey. Lamb feeding was lovely. Lee, who was running the lamb feeding, then also did an egg collection activity for our children. It was really interesting and good fun and it was brilliant that he adapted it for our children who are a bit older. We also ate at the restaurant, good breakfasts for all of us. Thanks especially to Lee for making the stop such a positive experience.

We came for the lamb feeding experience at Easter and both my kids (7 and 3) loved it. They also loved the new play area set up in the barn - bale maze and roleplay shop as well as a colouring area. They both completed the Easter trail too. We loved seeing the animals and being able to buy pig food. The restaurant/cafe is lovely and I’ve had some really tasty meals here. This time we got hot chocolate, coffee and pastries and were served very quickly and also given the table of our choice (with the swings!) A lovely place to visit, we spent a good few hours here!

Really enjoyed the opening night of sourdough pizza's and we really hope it continues as they were delicious with generous toppings. We also enjoyed the relaxed atmosphere and that we can do take away in the future as there aren't many good quality ones on offer locally. Really nice tough at the end of the meal when we said we were celebrating our anniversary, we will be back!

Lovely spot to break up a long car journey. The menu looks great and delivers on taste and portion size. It's a little pricey but okay value as it reflects the quality ingredients. Lots of games for kids and the pigs are adorable.

Dog friendly cafe serving a delightful selection of foods to suit anyones tastes. Freshly made To order and presented showing care and a love for the food. Friendly and professional the staff made the experience that bit better and we will certainly comeback. The location meant it was easy to pop in without a detour. Ample parking with a really well stocked farm shop attached to the cafe. Freshly baked breads, Jams, meats and other tasty items you would expect from a very good farm shop.
