Falshaw’s Farm Shop

Found this farm shop and café by pure chance and it has quickly become one of my favourite places to eat a small snack or meal at.
The farm shop is quite small but they sell their own beef (mince, steaks etc), lamb (chops etc), eggs, veg, pies (beef and cheese and onion), sausages as well as local preserves and chutney.
Their main business is their café, which has a fantastic selection of small snacks (sandwiches, tea cakes, homemade soup, cream scones etc) to larger meals including salads, all day breakfasts, homemade beef and lamb burgers and daily specials.
The food is all either from their own produce and meat at the farm or locally grown and sourced when possible. You can taste the difference and all the food is fresh and tasty. Their selection of cakes is fantastic, all home made and yummy. Last time I went they had crumbles, fruit pies, chocolate biscuit cake, sticky toffee pudding and many more I can’t remember. But the one thing that I adore the most about this place is their own homemade ice cream! It is the best ice cream I have ever come across, it’s not overly sweet and the flavours are great quality. The choice is huge and changes nearly every week but they can include: cherry and yogurt, strawberry cheesecake, sticky toffee pudding, hot cross bun, double chocolate chip, chocolate mint chip, strawberry, toffee fudge, sherry trifle, grandma’s special (sweets perfect for kids), farmhouse vanilla, cookies and cream, liquorice… the list goes one. They also do sobets.
As well as this huge selection you can buy cakes to take home, anything that’s in the cake counter as well as homemade scones and cookies.
It has a large outdoor area for kids to play with lots of toys and slides while adults can sit nearby in the sunshine watching the nearby cows and sheep in a field.
The whole place just has a wonderful, friendly feel. Only caution I would suggest is if like me you don’t have kids and like a bit of peace and quiet, either go early (before 12pm) on weekends and avoid on bank holiday Mondays as it gets very busy with families.
