Bradley Burn Farm Shop and Cafe in County Durham

Lovely food and friendly staff, puck up something special for the home too . They have antiques and curio's

The amount of times I have driven or ridden past this place and I never called in until yesterday. Plenty of ample parking in the overflow car park. If you like antiques you'll love this place. The food and drinks were great and the staff wonderful.

Lovely friendly welcoming atmosphere. I go a lot! Wonderful scones in such a variety of flavours. Try the special ones, different every day. The staff are great. Dog friendly, so Bear can gave a doggie lunch pouch when we've had our walk. Very good prices too. What's not to love?

Best bacon, egg & sausage bun ever! Also the decaff coffee was lovely, I rarely manage to drink a whole cup but I did that day. Will definitely be back.

The place is beautiful, the people is nice, the service is poor, not because they weren't nice but because they didn't know how to make coffee. Asked for a flat white, 3.2£ after I received tanned milk, had a sip and the coffee might have been tasty if someone with experience had done it, left the coffee at the bar. Rated 2 stars because of it. The antiques shop is superb though.

As always, a great place to visit.

Great coffee and cake. Lovely lunches and an interesting antique shop on site too. Our go to place for a quick coffee.

Lovely place in the heart of Weardale

Lovely place for sustenance half way through a walk.

Was lovely, good food, great price. Even had a robin come to visit

Amazing gluten free options. Such a cute cafe.

Nice place, but could do with larger menu.

Stopped by here to go on a dog walk as states dog friendly. Went in the cafe can't fault staff were friendly... but ruined by the antiques shop owner who thought it ok to swear at me my mam and sister. On leaving the cafe from the back entrance there was a bike with an old basket on placed against the fence which looked like part of the decor. I put my puppy in the basket and was verbally attacked by this beast of a man. The other people around all commented on how horrible the guy is and will also not be returning!! This guy could ruin your nice little business & they already knew he was like that before he thought it ok to swear at us.

Quaint little place. Excellent staff and lovely scones. Dog friendly

Stopped off for a look at the vintage shop and a walk up the fields with our two dogs. We stayed for coffee and cake, also took take-out sandwiches for later. Food excellent and well packaged. The Cafe has great table service, a must if you have dogs. Dog friendly outside area. .

It was o.k. But very disappointed that they had no corned beef pie on the menu today. Its a bit confusing as well cant make its mind up if its a cafe if an antique shop.

Beautiful little cafe with a great selection of antiques. The coffee and cake is great and the staff are lovely too

Stopped here for a coffee whilst we were out and about. Dog friendly! We had cake and a cheese scone as they were closing soon. Didn't have time to explore the dog trail or nature walk. There is also a little antique shop here.

Surprised us when calling in for a bite. Nice Sandwich, helpful staff and a great little curio shop. Recommend

Lovely cafe and antique shop, really dog friendly as well. Gorgeous scones 👌

Quite a lovely little cage with a antique shop attached. You can also take home a selection of preserves. Small menu but everything you need.

Lovely farm cafe , lovely food , friendly staff & well priced and fantastic that dogs are welcome and fab for dog walk before &after food well worth a visit.

Called in to collect a pot from the Trading Post, it was a lovely warm atmosphere, very friendly and comfortable

Cheese scones sell out very quick. Lovely place.

Lovely little place . Friendly Staff.

Lovely experience lovely food in pleasant surroundings, with added bonus of antiques and collectibles for sale,One note they don't sell chips with meals anymore so if looking on website remember that

Random find whilst on a road trip adventure. My SO is Coeliac so often finds it difficult to find anything to eat however was pleasantly suprised by the GF Scone whilst I opted for a coffee. Staff were friendly and helpful. If ever in the area again, we would definitely return.

Nice coffee and scone, good antique area, friendly staf,. Nice atmosphere.

Great Café, friendly staff, nice ambience.

Great for a delicious cheese scone, light snack or tea and tasty cake. Very dog friendly a pleasure to visit. Price's are good too

Not a big place or a huge menu but they had everything you'd need for a nice relaxed lunch/brunch. The cakes were excellent! And the antique shop is a really interesting addition.

Called in here for a drink and decided to have lunch. We had a selection of hot pies, served with peas and gravy. My corned beef pie was super (and huge). All were demolished and thoroughly enjoyed. Service was great too, and the cakes looked lovely. Will definitely call in for coffee and cake when next in the area.

Found it while cycling Called in for a cuppa saw the amount of home baked goods and needed to try White chocolate and strawberry scones were great Needed to get extra to bring home

Lovely little farmhouse café is a gorgeous countryside setting. Enjoyed the bacon sandwich and coffee. Pretty good value and friendly staff.

Bradley Burn Farm Shop ,a lovely place to visit for food & refreshments. Staff were pleasant &we were served promptly. Added bonus was antiques & gifts which we enjoyed looking at .

Thought we would try here for our breakfast but was disappointed that they didn't do a full English breakfast, so we left and went to the Diary Barn .

Clean, comfortable cafe with good food and drinks at sensible prices. Outside tables also available if the weather's good plus antiques and collectibles. Good atmosphere with very pleasant staff and clean, accessible toilets.

Drinks were good, the Victoria sponge was good but a bit dry, the apple turnover wasn’t bad but the scone you could knock nails into the wall with how hard it was and the cream that came with the scone was split, smelt and tasted awful.

The scones are best left on the counter, a bit heavy. Second hand items are interesting.

Bradley Burn accommodated us out of the rain for our annual meet up of Border Terrier owners. We travel from south Lincolnshire each year for our Weardale "fix" and to meet with lovely like-minded folk in the north. Bradley Burn reserved a table for us and our chaotic but well-behaved canine companions. Food and drinks were good, staff were super obliging. There were doggy treats provided. Thanks from Glenis, Andrew, Kate, Mike, Jane, Brian, Julie, Ann, Joe and Ann and BTs Lexi, Tia, Barney and Tuffers.

Great little cafe, very nice staff.

Lovely cafe in beautiful location. Large, very pleasant seating area; excellent menu choices; shop well stocked. Worth a repeat visit. Happy to recommend.

Now here we have a Local Haunt, at least to Me 'n Family. A Rustic Setting overlooking a 'Burn' , in Weardale Country. A Reasonable Menu, complimented by Comfortable Seating : In or Out. Plus a Range of Antiques & Bric-a-brac to Jog Old Memories, Of when We Had NOWT!! 🙂🙃🫠

Staff were lovely and rearranged tables so that our group of 7 could sit together. The coffee was good and I can recommend the quiche.

Love this place. Its a hidden gem, people are fantastic at the cafe and the antique side. You couldn't ask for better. Food is home cooked and so ate the cakes. If you haven't been fins it and go you won't be let down.

Great location with good seating out area and friendly staff

Friendly staff and a lovely setting.

A lovely antique shop with garden and cafe definitely a place to visit beans on toast with sausage was just enough and the beans came in a jug!

Lovely latte, tea and toasted teacakes

What a lovely find ☺️ the vintage and antiques shop has some fabulous things. Couldn't resist a purchase or two..

Food taken of menu and milk shakes taken off aswell

This place is on the up..Nice vibe..becoming more popular.

Great place. Homemade food which is delicious and the scones are amazing. Highly recommended.

Stopped in for lunch. My wife had their delicious bacon butty, I had their cheese and ham toastie. The salad was quite tasty Our entire meal was wonderful ! The staff were very pleasant, friendly and helpful ! We shall definitely return again !

Nice place, good atmosphere, reasonable food and nice staff. So why 2 stars? We began our food at 3pm, the café closes at 4pm, so why start sweeping up at 5 past 3? I am mildy asthmatic, and they have one of those dreaded air con units. It spread just a hint of the sweeping up dust around so we had to leave earlier than we intended. Should any establishment sweep floors while customers eat? I was chesty for many hours afterwards.We won't go back.

Decent. Fair prices, good quality food, literally the best bacon butty ever.

Love a wander round the shop and the coffee/cakes are amazing! Well worth a stop off.

Absolutely lovely, best home made scone ever. Nice ambiance , clean toilets.

Lovely hot coffee . Didn't like malteser slice it needed a layer of chocolate on top. Scones looked lovely but no cheese ones. Great to see gluten free options

Popped in (8 of us!) fab place, fab food & drink & fab service Going to pop back very soon 10/10

Lovely place to have a coffee and bite to eat

Lovely location and plenty parking. Popular destination for cylists. Not a huge selection to choose from in terms of breakfasts but do a sausage and bacon butty. Serve hot drinks too. Staff were lovely.

Web site states open daily but when we arrived this morning there was a sign on the cafe door advising they were closed on Mondays! Wasted time and wasted petrol. I recommend telephoning this lot before before visiting to avoid disappointment.

I have to admit that I do like this place it has a nice atmosphere and you go in through an antique shop so there's interesting stuff to see but my last visit was disappointing. 1. I am all for dog friendly cafes, but on the terrace not in the cafe barking loudly, up on the seats and being fed from the plate. 2. The food can be pricy and inconsistent. Soup was thin and flavourless served with a small chunk of chewy bread but still 5 pounds. It was pea and ham but the ham was all stock flavouring no evidence of any meat at all. They often have a soup listed but only a couple of portions so twice I have ordered up something only to have them come out afterwards and offer a different flavour. Folks having the breakfasts seemed to fare better in terms of quantity and quality.

Brilliant. The antiques were quite a surprise.

Lovely and warm nice food and service

Bit bland but very dog friendly grumpy shilock in fake antique shop

A real gold mine of treasure, service is exceptional

Nice cafe great scones to die for. And some nice antiques to see as well

Popped in here for a snack/early lunch. Staff were polite and the food was tasty and reasonably priced. Will definitely pop in again if passing by.

Not sure that the changes we saw at the weekend are permanent, but gone was the farm shop feel and it had been replaced with a sort of antique/bric-à-brac sort of feel. Not my cup of tea, but on the plus side the coffee in the cafe is still as good.

Used to have an awesome farm shop, haven't been in a while but now has a weird antiques shop. I got a flat white and it's clear the woman had no idea what that was, I got what I can only describe as a coffee milkshake, it went in the bin. I can not see any reason to go here, however they are dog friendly. I didn't have my dog but I got to pet someone else's so that deserves a star

On arrival we were very warmly greeted and shown to our pitch with explanations on where everything was. Being our very first trip in our mhome, this was greatly received. Lovely pitch and had the use of a great picnic bench, sadly didn’t use due to weather. The shower / toilet / washing up facility was very clean. We decided to eat in the farm cafe and were not disappointed. The staff were very friendly and the food was lovely and fresh. Great portions too. Hubby had a big chunk of home made corned beef pie which he thoroughly enjoyed. Next morning we decided to indulge again and has a beautiful fresh Full English breakfast. I would highly recommend this to fellow Motorhome / caravan friends.

Don't pass go in for a real treat.

Very disappointing. Ordered 2 toasted sandwiches, tea and apple juice. One toasty was sent back immediately as the cheese wasn't melted, this was dealt with swiftly. Whilst eating our lunch, we were about half way through, my child discovered a piece of plastic and metal in the coleslaw, about the size of a 50p. I went inside and asked the waitress to come out to see us rather than making a fuss in front of other diners. She came out and offered us more sandwiches which we declined, it had really put us off eating their food. Which kitchen allows what transpired to be an order magnet drop into food? The manager came out and gave us a refund for one sandwich but refused to refund the whole meal as we had eaten half a sandwich each..... Poor customer service along with poor kitchen management. Certainly a change from what it used to be. Will not be going back. Check your coleslaw!!!

Rip off prices. We only popped in on our way past and ordered a muffin and a milkshake. Although the service was good and the quality was ok, the priced were a joke. The worst thing was the milkshake. A tiny glass for £6 is an absolute rip off. I have read their reply but it has not changed my mind. In fact we have visited Richmond in North Yorkshire today (a very busy tourist town with much higher overheads) and had a milkshake in a café that make their own ice cream. Two scoops in a glass twice the size of Bradley Burn Farm and it was £5. I could hardly get up the hill to the castle afterwards.

Lovely cafe very clean lots of unusual antiques at the entrance. Prices good would definitely re visit.

Lovely staff, delicious home baked scones and cakes. Ate breakfast each day they make great coffees. Highly recommended.

We have been twice here, and have generally enjoyed all the food. Its a lovely location and a good walk start point and the "Certificated location" makes an excellent quiet touring caravan spot, especially for an overnight to Scotland. The scampi was delicious and my wife enjoyed her quiche, but I found my quiche not sufficiently cheesy and the pastry was a bit cardboardy in texture and its taste was not great either. Given quiche is a bit of a mainstay of the menu, this could be a problem for some folk. Loved the millionaire's shortbread and the treacle and cinnamon sponge. There is also an excellent antique furniture store here and we got a lovely nest of tables nice and cheaply. So definitely a place worth visiting.

Delightful! We browsed the antiques and other items for sale, then enjoyed lunch in the onsite cafe. The prices of the antiques would suit all pockets, from high to low. The home made quiches were delicious, substantial, served with a side salad and crisps. The cakes were tasty too. Looking forward to a return visit.

Best breakfast in the Dale's, can't be beaten for quality and price. Two large breakfasts (2 bacon, 2 sausage, 2 eggs, mushrooms, tomatoes, beans, hash browns 2 slices of thick seeded toast a pot of tea and a latte £23. Lovely staff aswell, definitely be back

Went Friday to treat my friend for breakfast, breakfast was fine lovely and hot wrong coffee given but never mind she drunk it, you had to pick your knifes and forks out of tray,picked 3 forks up which were dirty told staff in end and gave her 2 to take back.I do think that these should be wrapped if public are picking these up as people are handling these them putting them back.even tea pots wanted good clean.hope to come again but did put us off alittle

We came across Bradley Burn Farm Cafe by accident however we had a very nice meal in a lovely atmosphere. We will come back again.

This a great cafe/antique shop, it was great see the uniqueness in this cafe, the food and coffee went down well, and staff very helpful and pleasant, I will visit again soon

This used to be one of my favourite places. I took friends out for a treat expecting lovely food. The drinks were nice but the food was abysmal. My young friend only wanted a chip butty as the chips used to be home made and gorgeous. The chips were frozen, more like scrappy ends and very dry. The bun had no spread and was very dry. He couldn't eat it and I was annoyed until I tasted a chip which I couldn't swallow, it was so dry. We had a toastie after seeing the chips. Mine was dry and hard to eat so I left most, the salad garnish was OK. My older friend is in her 80s and only likes white toast. The only white they had was a bun so she had a very flat dry small bun with no garnish for the full price. She tried to use a knife and fork but had to pick it up. I was embarrassed at the quality. I bought her a nice looking cream cake to take away so hopefully that was OK. What a shame, why would we want to come back.

Visited for lunch in a weekday. Ordered the quiche and salad, asked for the quiche to be warmed but was cold in the middle when arrived. Staff kindly offered to reheat but must have been nuked in the microwave as it turned rubbery and the pasty not edible (but at least it was hot!). Service very quick but would have preferred to wait 5-10 min more for it to be heated in the oven. Coffee was ok and take away mint choc slice was nice and a welcome sugar whilst out walking the dales.

Nice little cafe, with a selection of antique goods for sale. Nicely spaced out tables with outside seating too. Friendly staff, nice tea and coffee. Didn't have non-dairy milks or vegan cakes else would have been 5 stars.

Called here not sure what to expect. We had a fabulous lunch. My wife had a huge portion of very good Scampi and Chips. I had the best cheese scone ever with pickle and cheese. Followed by yummy puddings. I would advise you to give it a try.

Very nice lovely scone and coffee

Lovely food then a great walk round the dog friendly field. Very enjoyable

Excellent homely dog friendly café with small antique shop combined.

Food very good and some lovely antigues

Great place for coffee and antique s

I have visited this cafe on a number of occasions with my elderly Mum on a Sat lunchtime. The menu is basic but what they do is homemade and very tasty. I often have the soup which is fab! The cheese scones are great and the atmosphere is relaxed. It is really good value.

Great little find. Scones to die for! X

Lovely food. Very interesting antique shop. Very nice people 👍

Lovely food we go there weekly staff are really friendly and dogs are very welcome

Lovely tranquil location with excellent food and friendly staff.
