The Organic Farm Shop Cafe

My wife and I are regular visitors to Cirencester Farm shop/cafe, particularly at Sunday Lunchtimes. I always have the meat option and my wife the vegetarian dish. I’ve never had a Sunday Roast as good as this anywhere. Highly recommended.

I always come to this restaurant with my friends for lunch and it never disappoints. We like to browse the colorful shop first and pick up a few goodies before enjoying a delicious hot bowl of soup with homemade bread. The soup is always made from scratch and tasty, although it may need a bit more seasoning. I love this place and highly recommend it.

This is a great spot for those who enjoy vegetarian cuisine. I am not a vegetarian myself, but I must say, they really know how to make vegetables delicious. My personal favorite was their beetroot and fennel gratin! They do serve meat on Sundays, which is also top-notch. The staff is friendly and the views of their farm are lovely, making for a complete dining experience.

Some things great, others… not so much. Expensive food shop, but quality really high (mostly) so that’s fine. The cafe is very expensive for what it is, and on,y just manages to make you feel it’s justified. The whole thing feels slightly amateurish but not in a wholly charming way. Worth it for a coffee or bowl of soup but I’d suggest you first managed expectations. Not allowing dogs is a real shame.

It should be so good but it’s not. There is always a queue for food and the staff seem a bit hapless and seem to have little initiative but I feel maybe they are not allowed to. Having had a poor experience a few times I would put this down to poor training and management. The shop is good but there is a sign at the till saying “ no returns” .some of the clothes are quite expensive so it put puts me off buying anything. This could be a lovely place to visit and we keep coming back hoping. Please get your act together.

We visit the farm shop once a week and buy a lot from them for our daily needs which includes vegetables, fruit, cheese and other things like buckwheat noddles, bin bags. We have regularly a coffee and a cake and often lunch. This year, I bought for the first time also plants in Spring time which were a nice addition to my existing plants in the garden. I also visited the Open Fay in June. The entire atmosphere is enjoyable and inspiring.I love the shop, the cafe and the Indian department. The staff are always friendly. This farm shop is a different world.

We were visiting with our friends from the Cotswolds. It was a disappointing experience. There are a number of aspects that were poor. The meat was ringed throughout with fat similar to pork belly and there was no crackling. We expected a nice premium loin of pork. Other diners also left fatty meat on the side of their plates. The carrots were hard and the potatoes were not properly roasted or browned. The gravy was glutinous which was not pleasant. For a premium priced roast this fell well short of expectations. The apple crumble deserts were poorly presented with a tiny blob of cream.

I absolutely love Abbey Farm shop. The shop is divided into two sections - one offering a variety of food products and the other showcasing beautiful Indian products such as fabrics and bedlinens (Rani fairtrade cottons). The food shop is fantastic, with many products sourced directly from the farm such as vegetables, fruits, dairy products (including cheese and yogurt), bread, and various meats (hams and sausages). Despite the top-notch quality and freshness of the products, as well as the fairtrade practices in place, the prices are quite competitive. The staff is friendly, helpful, and laid-back, creating a welcoming atmosphere. The cafe is also great, with a lovely seating area that over...

We're regular visitors to the Cotswolds, and one of the highlights of our visits is always this lovely shop. The cafe had been closed for all our previous visits due to Covid, and we've been looking forward to it re opening, as the shop and farm produce is all such consistently good quality, and ethically sourced. We weren't disappointed: I had a delicious curry, and my partner enjoyed an enormous plate of mixed salads. It's the kind of food you feel healthier for just looking at! Full of good things, but also really hearty and satisfying. It's a lovely environment, with a natural but colourful vibe, overlooking the farmland where most of the food comes from. The service is always good as we...
