Dovecote Barn - Cafe, Bar & Bistro

Peter Demaine

A nice place to take children to see the animals outside. The farm shop has good selection of meat plus other local goods. The cafe has warm and welcoming feel. We when as a family to pick a pumpkin today got a little wet, but still, enjoyed the experience.

Lovely place off the beaten track. The baked potatoes were great and such good value. Nice decaf coffee. Spacious outside seating area but, smaller space inside. Not busy on a cooler day. Service was good and friendly staff.

Omg first of all, the walk is amazing to this beautiful cafe, bar and farmshop. Lots of animals on the walk up and very open, well kept rear garden area with beanbag throwing game for the children and a wooden decked, shaded area as well. You can interact with the animals and if your lucky they let you stroke them, which I got to. I went into the bar area and behold, cake and we know cake is life!!! This is not just a normal cake, this a dovecote strawberry and pimm's cake. Play the halo noise, the knife slid effortlessly through and the cider was a nice, refreshing palette cleansing addition - well that's how I justify it. So I pay a fair price to sit in an idyllic location but the server was a young girl compared to me, polite and extremely professional even apologised when she had to take a booking on the phone. Very impressed, nothing to big or small which she the young gentleman would not undertake to assist you further. Now back to the cake, if 50 shades was a sponge with frosting and jam, then I'm taking my slice and calling it Christian. Sponge moist and good bubble depth plus no sogginess - most important no dryness. The pimm's and the strawberry was divine, so good I went back a second time - I would pay for this cake for a birthday or just because I'm fat and love 🎂 🥮. Next time, I'm booking for a table!!!
