“I introduced my family to the Cowshed on Saturday. I’ve been a few times now. They weren’t disappointed and neither was I. It’s such a lovely welcome and really wonderful locally sourced food. Dog friendly too. Seating inside and out.”

We stopped off here as we needed a morning refuel. We were greeted by super friendly staff. The lady who owns the cafe told us all about the locally sourced produce. The breakfasts when they came out were perfect. Best sausages we’ve had but everything was exactly as you’d want in a fry up. Would recommend to anyone passing nearby.

We went back a few days later for another veggie delight. Super friendly owners lovely atmosphere. Well worth a visit if you're around the area. You won't be disappointed.

We're always hunting for hidden gems - those small independent places that deliver the combination of great coffee, delicious food, and exceptional service. The Cow Shed delivers on all fronts! The service is very attentive. The owner's homemade cakes are fantastic - a true labor of love you can taste in every bite! They serve Moon Roast coffee from Hampshire, mine was a Flat White which was perfect. The cooked breakfast? Honestly, it's the best I've had in recent memory, and surprisingly affordable! Everything arrived beautifully prepared, bursting with flavor, and piping hot. According to other reviewers, they source many ingredients from local producers, which explains the exceptional freshness and quality. We sat outside and took in the fresh but bright spring sunshine ☀️ We're already planning our next visit. Thank you to The Cow Shed team for a truly memorable experience!

A little cafe that is slightly off the main road, it is really lovely and the food and staff are fabulous. I think it definitely comes under the heading of Hidden Gem. We were being healthy, so had the Greek Flatbread and the Port Salut toastie but the cooked breakfasts looked amazing. Very reasonably priced too. We'll definitely be back when we're next out for a ride :)

“*My personal view of the full English breakfast was a 2/5 but as that's my preference I'm leaving a 4/5 for the place overall* The staff were so so friendly and warm when we arrived at the little garden centre cafe opened. The interior is prettily decorated with care and style - there's even a little alcove with a few tables and library wall paper which is fun My husband had a chocolate shake which he said was very good and we didn't wait long for breakfast to arrive with hot toast and cute little piped butters. It went downhill from here for me as the beans were EVERYWHERE on the plate covering all the other items in bean juice. Now, if you're a bean fan, I'm sure this isn't a problem but I am not keen on mushrooms, sausage, tomato etc etc being slimy. The egg was cooked well but it was one top of everything so it had a beany underside and made the other items taste of eggy oil. Nearly everywhere I've been in recent years serves the beans in a separate ramekin which also makes the plate look nicer. However, as I said above, this is totally my preference so it wouldn't be fair to mark them down. The loss of one star is because 1. the sausage didn't taste great quality and 2. the mushrooms were too watery. 3. At £13.75 a full English, I think that's quite pricey for the quality. The garden centre has some excellent edibles, gifts and cute cards, so well worth a visit.”
