Shocking experience in the cafe the morning of Sunday 8th Dec '24. 1) Ordered 2 'hot' drinks, when they arrived they were barely lukewarm and one wasn't what we ordered. We raised this with the waitress who bought the drinks to the table who told us we were wrong. As way of 'justification' she produced the slip the person taking the order had put on their system. Lo and behold that person had entered the wrong items on the tablet! No apology and no attempt to make things right was forthcoming. 2) We ordered 2 cooked breakfasts. Both arrived with undercooked phlegmy egg whites and 1 breakfast also had barely warmed up hashbrowns. When we mentioned these issues at the point of paying all we got was "oh ok thanks, that'll be £xyz" from the waitress/cashier. Whilst we were there we observed more than just ourselves raising an issue with staff regarding the food/service. Based on this experience I doubt we'll be going back for food and drinks anytime soon.

On Monday 30th September I met up with friends as an ideal place between where we live. We enjoyed a relaxed brunch , the chef was very accommodating for particular dietary requirements. It gradually became busy towards lunchtime. But we were not rushed and all staff were friendly and obliging. The whole place has been extended over the years. Which means there is such a variety of things to browse and buy. Well worth a visit. Brilliant fruit and veg display. So nice not to have plastic containers.

This is a great farm shop/garden centre. Even leaving aside the soft play which has a decent sensory room and a really awesome outdoors beach area (open seasonally), and the café, this farm shop and seasonal pick your own is excellent. Shop has Kohlrabi and Victoria plums, two varieties I always struggle to find elsewhere, as well as the standard veg and fruit, with a lot of it grown locally (Cam valley farms). Shop asleep sells really nice gifts and cards, esp for children, has a meat counter and I think another deli type counter. There are garden tools and plants for sale in other areas of the building. Finally the pick your own operation runs through the shop and having used it I think the pyo quality is high, you just need to bring along secateurs for the dahlias, otherwise you have to buy scissors or the like, which they are happy to sell you. Nb disabled access is good, though I've only used the disabled toilets in the soft play, which were great. Disability discounts in the soft play on request. There is a loyalty card for the farm shop and cafe with stamps for every £25 spent.

There has been some thought and care put into this restaurant and , in my view, they've got a lot right. On the plus side, the food offerening is decent, if a bit slow, the waiting staff were very good (working in a madly busy environment), the appearance of the resturant was pleasing, and it was great to get things like jam and cream in small dishes, as opposed to being served minimal portions from pre-packaged plastic containers. Also, if you are there for coffee and cakes, they have a nice selection to choose from. Well done to the owners on all of those fronts. Where the restaurant falls down badly - enough to make my return unlikely - is that if you go on a day where there are lots of young mothers and kids, it takes on the acoustic feel of a monkey house/school canteen. It's hellishly noisy, and if you want to have a converstaion you certainly have to raise your voice. The issue is that the restaurant is pretty large and serves lots of people. The sound bounces of all the walls and there is plenty of it. If I owned the restuarant I would experiment with acoustic dividing boards between the nicely padded bench seats that they have, and some acoustic boards on the walls. I do like the look and feel of the place, but I was very glad to get out because of the noise. How the waiting staff deal with it every day beats me, they must get exhausted.

On our way to Cambridge, we stopped at this beautiful farm shop which had almost everything. The cafe was beautiful and we ordered jacket potato with cheese and salad which was very delicious. The atmosphere is very nice and cozy. Also, we experiences picking our own Dahlias there. We had to but our scissors before picking our flowers. So I would recommend taking your own scissors before visiting this place. Also the market was very big and had everything. All the staff were so welcoming and helpful and we enjoyed our visit to this farm shop. Highly recommended 10/10

It shouldn’t take 20 minutes to get a coffee and a bit of cake. Ignored when we stood at the ‘Please wait here sign.’ A group of people with no clear leader. The food looked good but the service is slow and doesn’t work. Consider looking at the set up they have at Scotsdales where customers are allocated a table, then collect their drinks and order food. That way they have something to drink whilst they wait. It’s a shame..

I took my little girl here after enjoying the PYO season. First thing that I found a little odd was that it is table service. In a cafe? Anyway we have it a go. Anyone with a young and inpatient child may be slightly put off by table service however I am happy to say that the service was extremely speedy. Unfortunately the prices are just really extreme for me. It's a gorgeous shop and cafe with great facilities but the mark up is really out there on some of the items. I'd recommend it for maybe a coffee rather than a full sit down meal because it's going to hurt your pockets!

We visited Bury Lane Farm this weekend to have a spot of breakfast in the cafe which was scrumptious. I went for the fresh salmon and scrambled eggs on sourdough which was cooked perfectly. Refreshed and satisfied we ventured over to the pick your own peony field. The field was a spectacular view with row upon row of exquisite blooms. There were serval different varieties of peonies with a mixture of colours from delicate white and soft pale pink to cerise pink - it was a breathtaking view. The perfume from the peonies was also a real delight creating a peaceful atmosphere. The staff member was really informative and friendly. The price of the cut peonies were reasonable and the wasn't an admission fee to the field so if you just wanted to take a few photos and enjoy the field you were more than welcome to. I would definitely recommend visiting Bury Lane Farm.

I recently visited Bury Lane Farm Shop and had a wonderful experience picking our own peony flowers. The farm shop is beautifully maintained, with a wide variety of fresh produce, local goods, and delightful treats. However, the highlight of our visit was undoubtedly the "pick your own peonies" activity. The peony fields were stunning, with vibrant colors and a sweet fragrance filling the air. The staff were friendly and helpful, providing us with all the tools and guidance needed to pick the perfect blooms. It was a relaxing and enjoyable experience, perfect for a sunny day out. After picking our flowers, we explored the rest of the farm shop and were impressed by the selection of artisanal products and the charming café. We enjoyed some delicious homemade treats and coffee, making it a complete day out. Overall, Bury Lane Farm Shop offers a fantastic combination of a charming retail experience and delightful outdoor activities. We highly recommend visiting, especially during peony season!
