From farm,
to table.
We pride our bistro on using locally sourced produce and the freshest ingredients, many of which are available to buy in our farm shop.
Our menu blends traditional farm‑to‑table dishes with a few international favourites, all cooked with care and proper flavour.
With both indoor and outdoor seating, we offer a relaxed, casual space to enjoy food throughout the day — from breakfast to evening meals. We look forward to welcoming you to Dovecote Barn soon.
