Cowdray Farm Shop & Cafe in Chichester

Pleasant meal. Great service. Catered well for my gluten and dairy free son by adapting menu options. Great cake options too including gluten free/vegan.

The setting is lovely but sadly the food is very mediocre and very over priced ! All the dishes we ordered were tasteless and very poorly presented . Having read previous reviews this seems to be a recurring theme but nothing appears to have been done to address the issues raised . Such a shame as expected so much more !

We often go to the Cowdray Cafe and Farm shop, frequently to eat as well as buy produce. We always enjoy going to the café, the staff are warm, polite, helpful and professional, the last few times we ordered the flat iron steak and a side of fries. The steak is cooked to perfection, simply served with chimichurri and salad with excellent skinny fries. It is the best steak of its type we have eaten in ages, it is sourced very locally and is very high quality, we savour each bite, eat slowly, and we can't get enough. The price is good, and the whole experience is a relaxing pleasure. See you there, we will definitely be back again soon.

Have enjoyed lunch midweek with friends before and very pleased with choices However very disappointed with lunch for 5 of us today. Ate outside as dogs with us and unfortunately plagued by wasps. Daughter in law had mackerel salad small amount with tomatoes and peppers only and other choices quite small such as calamari and small salad. Chicken Caeser Salads slightly better. As asked for more salad to go with mackerel charged for a house salad when could have added leaf salad to original. Chips both fries and large over cooked. With soft drinks and some coffee bill came to £80. The salad was taken off the bill after discussion. No one came during the meal to ask if our meal was enjoyable and fine. Not impressed and happy so definitely not up to higher standards I have experienced before. Saturday shouldn't make a difference and cafe was not that busy.

Service was shocking. Disorganised staff and all over the place. No consistency Ordered food that never arrived and got umpteen excuses about why it didn’t but no apology . Wasps are out of control. Clearly a wasps nest in the vicinity which makes it impossible to eat outside. Not going back. EVER.

Exceptional quality venue, with nice food and good service - is what I’d say about Cowdray Farm Shop & Cafe. When you compare this amazing setting with say, a cafe on the high street - Cowdray wins hands down. It’s just exquisitely put together, and with such a great ambiance and setting - it’s well worth a visit. The farm shop is very well stocked, with fresh vegetables (not organic), artisan produce and a meat butcher counter ~ all very nice and well worth a visit. The food in the cafe is good - I had the Southern Fried Chicken Brioche Burger - and for just £10, it was good value - however the chicken was dry and a little over-done, the triple cooked chips were pale and anemic looking - and a bit too big cut. I’ve had better - and if I was in charge of the kitchen, I’d pay attention to some of these details - and try to perfect these dishes, to refine them. The Chicken ~ cut it smaller, don’t overcook it. Same for the chips - but give them some colour and crunch. A final fry at 190 degrees should do it, but definitely cut the potatoes slightly smaller. I mean, they were just HUGE! That’s all I can say with a critical hat on, but overall it was a lovely lunch with family ~ in a beautiful setting. The service was attentive and punctual ~ and I’d definitely come back again. Overall, the price was very reasonable, and it’s well worth a visit.

We only visit once or twice a year, and on this occasion for the purpose of celebrating my sister’s Birthday. Overall, we enjoyed the food, and both the ambience and the enthusiasm of the young serving staff were much appreciated. However, we did have a minor issue which was not resolved at the time. We contacted the restaurant the following day with our issue, and this was dealt with entirely to our satisfaction by the manager, Emma. Her handling of this situation was first class, and for this reason alone, we wouldn’t hesitate to return again or wholeheartedly recommend the restaurant to our family and friends.

It was our first visit in the caffe and we both loved it. The place is quite pricy but it’s worth it ;) Good quality ingredients such as bacon, sousage,eggs. Eggs cooked perfectly, excellent and friendly staff. Delicious 😋 orange juice We will be back in few weeks time !

What a Gem we found on holiday. From the time of our arrival we were greeted by a lovely lady nothing was too much trouble she went above and beyond to meet my fussy food requirements. The food was lovely especially the Raspberry Jam which I then purchased from the shop along side many other products all reasonably priced. Cowdray Farm Shop and Cafe was very clean & tidy all the staff were lovely and the grounds clean and tidy. EXCELLENT we couldn't fault it and will return when visiting the area again.

A regular place for us. However today when we there for tea and cake the waitress asked us if we would like a biscuit for our dog which is what a lot if dog friendly places do. Imagine our surprise when we paid we were charged £1.50 for a dog biscuit ! Come on Cowdray really?

Over rated. Trying to run a cafe as a posh restaurant. Table service but you have to get your own cutlery and condiments are in fast food packets. Half an hour queue to be sat at tables that had been empty the whole time. Food tasted good but over priced. Service was slow but staff polite.

I came for lunch yesterday and had the risotto. I’ve eaten risotto in many different types of establishments. This was without exception the best risotto I have ever eaten. It was so full of flavour perfectly textured and just delicious. My friends had the fish and chips and the halloumi burger and they were also delicious. Thrilled this is my new local and thank you to the chef all the friendly staff. Hope it’s as good next week! Jo x

As a local I have been here a few times, mainly bringing guests to visit the farm shop and cafe. It is not a cheap lunch and, yet again I am underwhelmed by the food and service. We waited an age to be seated while waiting staff walked past over ten times. They smiled but didn’t acknowledge that we were waiting. Eventually we were seated and given one menu.. between two. I had to get up and go and get another one. Is it really too much to have one each? We were offered and served drinks, no problem. We ordered two sandwiches - no granary bread left. What? You have a farm shop next door! Ok we chose sourdough. The sandwiches arrived with a bunch of leaves on the side. No dressing, no love, no care. Just leaves. The biggest horror was that in, what is presented as a quality establishment we were served sandwiches with cheap, margarine type spread that stuff that comes in huge plastic tubs. Reeeevolting. As a chef I find this really not ok. Cheap and average, very expensive. That’s it. Will not chance it again I’m afraid.

We had a lovely bright airy table & we arrived for breakfast / brunch! Lovely menu to choose from , coffees all round & poached egg & bacon & toast for 2 , bacon sandwiches on toast for one & scrambled egg on toast for one. All delicious & well presented , excellent service & as it is a go to when we are in this area we will definitely be back again ! Well done everyone !

I love this place for a coffee before or after a dog walk & have had breakfast/brunch many times, as I did today. However while the setting is lovely, the coffee is excellent & the overall experience is usually an 8 or 9, I really wanted to post this review to say that all of this is despite the food being never bad but consistently extremely average - only a 5 or 6 at best. Much as I am a fan of the Cowdray Cafe I always leave wishing the food had been of a higher standard & being slightly surprised that for an organisation like the Cowdray Estate this is not the case.

Great coffee shop - the cheese scones are to for for - dog friendly outside and sell homemade dog biscuits- staff are great and the food looks amazing- just a wonderful place

Don’t turn up between 11.30 and noon as it’s the witching half hour! No breakfast and no sandwiches or lunch! Bizarre. Also the snack shop outside advertises sausage rolls but turns out only on the weekends!

Inside or outside seating. We chose outside. I had a warm king prawn salad. Beans, and quote a lot of olives. Tasty, but may not be to everyone's taste. My wife had salmon, potato and salad. Not cheap, good quality food.

Went for afternoon tea and cake with my friend and my grandchildren. Although the food and drink were very nice i did have an issue with the children’s outside play area. We sat outside so that we could see them but in order to be able for them to get to the play area they had to go round the courtyard and in through the cafe and through another door ! Seemed absolutely crazy when there was an opening right in front of the courtyard that had been blocked with pots of plants so nobody could get through!! I spoke to the lady who was serving and she said it was a safety issue!! The fact that young children were running through the cafe where staff were carrying hot food and drinks seemed far more of a safety issue to me !!

We stopped by here yesterday for a quick lunch en route to the Chichester Festival Theatre. The sandwiches were delicious and fresh and the triple cooked chips THE best ! The service was efficient and friendly. Shame we did not get the name of our server who was superb.Would highly recommend!

What is it about this cafe. Always running out of something. Today it was teapots. As a result those of our group who where having tea didn’t get it until the others had finished their coffee or chocolate. And they weren’t even apologetic. One couple at a nearby table, got up and left. Cowdray cafe get your act together.

I witnessed staff bin 3 large £4 cake slices because they were unevenly sliced. A shocking waste of perfectly good food.

Had the most lovely lunch with my son. All courses were delicious and the service as ever was attentive and delightful. This cafe never disappoints and I often come in for a coffee after a dog walk as the atmosphere so welcoming.

We had a great family day out at Cowdray Estate. Enjoyed our walk and then had wonderful food and coffee at the cafe. The staff are so friendly and looked after us in every detail. Highly recommended.

I have been coming to Cowdray Cafe every week now since it opened. Great coffee, yummy food, service always with a smile even when the cafe is busy. The staff couldn't be more friendly and nothing is too much trouble. Butternut Squash soup special with...

We recently went to Cowdray cafe for breakfast and it was lovely. The food is very good quality and the staff are very friendly. It is in an excellent position next to the farm shop with a gentle walk down to the ruins and into...

Great coffee and always greeted with a smile. Even, at 8am or during a busy lunch service. Simply the best cheese scones for miles, would drive there just for those! Has a lovely Christmas feel in such a beautiful setting.

We ordered 2 sandwiches but just before 1.00pm there was no granary bread - how can this be possible? In spite of asking for my beef sandwich to not include rocket sadly it did and therefore it had to be wasted. The beef was neither...

The visit started badly when the disabled access was blocked by a table and chairs from which the customers seated could see us outside the door trying to get a wheelchair in but refused to move. It continued badly when the weak insipid coffee and...

As we'd driven past the door for years, we thought we'd pop in for a change. The fresh and frozen meat selection was superb! As was the vast array of cheese. So many goodies from far and wide. And loads of gift ideas with The...

This used to be our favourite place for Saturday lunch, the food we had at the recently was not at all as good. Salad was limp because it had been drenched in Alio, and the crab Tortellini I had was tasteless. Also the inside bathroom...

Stopped here to meet a friend and have a light lunch, on her recommendation. Very nice setting with helpful staff and lovely place to walk afterwards. Good for dog walking and restaurant is dog friendly.

I went for lunch the other day with a few friends and we sat inside specifically to be near the toilet. However, when one of the party asked to use the loo, they were told it is located across the courtyard and at the end...

We drop in here regularly. There are plenty of options for breakfast. Service and ambience is always great. Breakfast is usually locally sourced ingredients.

This is a really great café which we greatly enjoy coming too for a full English cooked breakfast. But there are a variety of other options too, including waffles in maple syrup, lots of posh eggs, avocados and muesli with yoghurt. Staff are always attentive,...

Such a great venue and a good selection of cakes and pastries for mid morning coffee but such an antiquated and nonsensical style of service. The staff take an order,deliver the order then ask you to visit a central service station to pick up cutlery....

The sandwiches are lip smacking and loaded with fresh ingredients. Anna, who served us is a huge asset to the cafe. It was lovely seeing her chatting to regular customers.

This place is really delightful. Food options wide ranging and delicious. Easy parking, lovely old buildings. Great outside on a sunny day. My only gripes are no cushions on seats or sofas for coffee. Also dogs not allowed inside so if it’s bad weather they...

Called in for a quick working lunch. Efficient service despite being busy. Coffee is wonderful. Food ingredients and preparation good. Very fair value. It was a bonus that the weather was mild enough to eat on the terrace. We picked up a few things in...

Lovely setting. Great service. Superb quality ingredients cooked perfectly. Only gripe is that for a place this big, 3 loos are mot really adequate. They were spotless though. Highly recommended and will definitely return.

We popped into Cowdray after visiting Goodwood’s breakfast club. It is a delightful spot to pick up farm shop goodies. We only bought cheese scones and a coffee from the coffee stall. We sat overlooking the polo fields. Everything was just right. The farm shop...

We had seen lots of people/cars here when we walked around the ruins on Saturday so decided to investigate further on Tuesday when it was likely to be less busy. What a delight. The staff were really efficient and friendly and we felt genuinely welcomed....

I recently ate at the cafe and the food was great. The burger I had was perfect. Nice bun, crisp Lettice and a well cooked burger. Very importantly the service was prompt and polite. We then went to the Farm Shop which was equally nice,...

I have always been intrigued by the yellow painted cottages scattered around the West Sussex countryside belonging to the Cowdray estate envisaging forelock tugging rustics of yesteryear and decided to try the farm shop and cafe at Cowdray headquarters for lunch, I am glad I...

Wonderful first experience here and we’ll certainly be returning! Great service and good value quality fayre. Friendly and efficient staff; just a shame we don’t live nearer! Our lab Bodie gave the ‘paws up’ on the triple cooked chips too!

Cowdray Cafe has been our firm favourite for over 9 years now and never really had a single bad meal. It can get busy at times, especially in summer/ during Polo season but the staff will always work their hardest to find you a table...

Welcomed with a warm friendly smile, I was shown to my table. The beamed cafe was decorated tastefully with Christmas fairy lights and winter twigs. The atmosphere felt warm and cosy. Everything was spotlessly clean. My tea was hot and served in a pot. I...

Went here for a catch up and a coffee and was not disappointed! Food was lovely and fresh, staff were great and the atmosphere was welcoming and cozy.

Popped in for a coffee with my wife. We both found it very pleasant, the service was friendly and my Cream Tea was lovely. My wife had coffee and a slice of cake and enjoyed both, she said the cake was delicious. The shop has...

Had the best breakfast we have had in a very long time 3 meat breakfast and 1 vegetarian. Staff so polite and friendly we were not rushed even though they were busy. Think it's place we will be going back to soon.

Fabulous as always. Waiters and waitresses are polite and nothing is to much trouble. The food is exceptional and very well priced.

Went here for lunch with friends & had a lovely time. Food & service was fabulous. Would definitely recommend.

This promised to be a cafe that is a cut above the rest, but we felt underwhelmed by the meal. We had the cheddar, salad & pickle on brown with watercress and handmade crisps. The bread tasted bland and was nothing special. The crisps were...

Very disappointing visit today , the cafe was very noisy , unable to hear my friend talk. The wc facilities were obviously having work and there were portaloos provided that were disgusting no water or hand washing facilities and a flush that didn’t work ....

The farm shop and cafe doesn’t feel particularly welcoming. As locals we probably won’t return to the cafe as it is very pricey and the quality of the food is average. We had sandwiches for lunch and they were served with standard sliced bread, crisps...

I didn’t book. Friend did. Country farm cafe. Assumed dog friendly. Not at all. Had to sit outside for breakfast in cold with no heater. I know they say on website now but clearly snooty and not customer orientated. Middle class investment banker pompous cafe...

Lovely cafe in the most stunning of surroundings. I’m steadily working my way through the menu and I haven’t been disappointed yet. My current favourite is their autumn salad of spelt, butternut squash, cranberries and cavalo Nero. It’s so delicious I popped in to ask...

I met 3 friends here today, having been recommended the place, but none of us had ever visited. We had to wait for a table which was explained to us, but we were quickly seated when one became available. We all thoroughly enjoyed our lunch…...

It was a foul day but lunch here with friends really cheered us up, from the warm welcome, enthusiastic staff, varied menu and yummy food. Some chose soup, others salads, others grain dishes, all superb, and very generous!

The shop is fab. The cafe is as bad as the shop is good! The staff are snooty, lazy and not service orientated. You work in a cafe - try putting the customer first instead of lolling about in groups chatting. No wonder they are...

I have visited this farm shop cafe a number of times and it hasn’t let me down so far . The vegetarian breakfast was great although as an addition I’d love some avocado that I didn’t see as I side . Fresh orange juice and...

We are lucky enough to be able to walk to the Cowdray cafe and have done so a few times for Brunch. The service is excellent and the staff are obviously well trained. The food is local, fresh and beautifully cooked to order. Highly recommended.

very poor slow service, totaly ignored at cafe table so we left and ordered a carry out instead, then they couldnt even get that correct! Scones without butter so had to trail back an dtell them and icing form bakewell sponge stuck to box. Highly...

Service was very slow. The burgers were mediocre (and also expensive considering the poor quality) for a farm shop - better tasting burgers (ones that had some flavour at least should be the norm). The children’s fish gougans were very dry and very fishy tasting....

We called in for breakfast and had a great meal, very friendly staff, really tasty food in a nice cafe, really well worth a visit.

The outstanding element of our recent trip to this venue was the staff. In spite of being extremely busy all who served us were friendly patient helpful and efficient, which made the atmosphere lively and very welcoming. The kitchen kindly made minor modifications to the...

Warm friendly and good service. Good menu , delicious I had smoked salmon on rye, and a special smoothie. Chunky chips with the hamburger,very generous portions. A lovely setting.

Perfect place to sit comfortably outside with perfect parking right outside for older parents who had driven from London. Delicious lunch we had smoked salmon sandwich, the burger, cheddar sandwich, scrumptious triple cooked chips, and I had the smashed avocado which was “smashing”! Also bought...

First time back in a long time and it did not disappoint. Very tasty, freshly cooked breakfast, pastries and coffee that really tastes like coffee. Everything inside and out felt organised and safe too. Quick stop off in the Farm Shop and far too many...

First time visit to the cafe but unfortunately will not be back in a hurry. The service was very slow and looking at what I thought was a very overpriced menu, found it hard to find something that suited. I went for the Chinese pulled...

Coffee is fine, nothing special and very small. Nice service. We changed our minds about having lunch as it was pouring with rain and the toilets are situated outside, quite a while away. They are locked with a combination code. Management are clearly fed up...

Last week I had lunch with three friends at the Cowdray Cafe. I'm sad to sad it was awful. The service took hours. ( There's a bit of confusion about entering and exiting through the one door not to mention trying to pay the bill)....

Enjoyed a sanwich lunch here with friends today, and the food, the staff, and the setting were all excellent.

Lifting of Covid restrictions meant a return to the cafe post school pick up - this time to the inside. I've never been able to fault the food nor the drinks and both the milkshake and Belgian Waffles were devoured with delight by the accompanying...

Found the cafe by accident and it is first class. Ample seating outside including some under cover of an open-sided gazebo. Very clean, efficient table service with very friendly staff. Good, homely, honest, well cooked food and a very reasonable price. Would definately have no...

Had an outdoor coffee in the courtyard. Lots of people were ordering food which looked tempting. Real subject of this review is the farm shop which has everything you could possibly want and artistically presented to boot.Provençal quiche was perfect. Loads of stunning plant pots i have never seen elsewhere.

Spent a very pleasant three hours (!) Lingering over coffee, lunch and cake meeting with a friend. The environment felt very safe, the staff were welcoming and helpful. At no point did we feel pressured to hurry up and move on. Food was delicious.

We walked the entire Cowdray estate and where pleased that there was a table available at the cafe to relax at. Ordered a hot chock, tea and two brownies. Brownies were very chocolately and tasted fab. Nice to be able to sit outside in the afternoon sun whilst we still have it. Menu was pretty good ranging from breakfast through a good lunch mix. Staff friendly and not fazed even when the two ladies sat on the next table were being extremely rude.

Have often visited this cafe and love the food quality our first visit after they opened after COVID shutdown we where impressed on there vigilance. However when vining today we left before we got our table, due to the servers not wearing there masks correctly (not covering nose). The lady behind the cake counter who was slicing and placing the cake onto the plates was wearing her mask around here neck. Not a good impression at all

I only wanted a flat white (my favourite coffee), and took the risk of ordering one. I say risk, as I have NEVER come across a "non-specialist" cafe which can make one. I mean never! So I was fairly blown away to be presented with the real deal (tight foam from start to finish, with quality beans) in a LARGE china cup (another bonus). The young man who made it was barista-trained, (I had a word after), and I spotted the very serious coffee machine behind him. The coffee was fairly priced for the RARE product and lovely setting, by the polo field. Well done Cowdray, next time I will also try the full English!!

After doing a favour for a friend he suggested breakfast here. I’ve lived in Midhurst for 7 years and I’m embarrassed to say I hadn’t been here. I will certainly be going back, a very pleasant place with tasty food.

Very good service, ideal for a cafe stop with dogs and with children if you are happy to sit outside in a really nice courtyard. Lovely coffee and cakes.

A very nice local shop and café. The staff has been really polite and friendly. We tasted some of the local cheeses as they recommended, they were delicious!

We stopped here on a sunny day and were able to get a table outside. A good range of food and drink was available ranging from sandwiches,and paninis to cooked dishes. Service was speedy and the servers were very happy and confident in their jobs We also tried the local pressed fruit drinks which were out of this world.The children's play area is currently closed but I imagine in more normal times it is a great place to bring children.Good free car parking

Very cute area especially on a sunny day, we had the oven baked pizzas and they were very good. Nice staff would recommend it’s worth visiting.

Protected by the beautiful South Downs, is the idyllic little town of Midhurst. Sitting on the outskirts of tbe town, and recognised by the tell-tale yellow windows of the far-stretching Cowdray Estate, is this little gem.Priced accordingly for its location and service, this lovely cafe (with exclusive shop and quaint express takeaway beside it) attracts a mixture of clientele from 'polite society' so £6+ for a sandwich is not too much to ask. If you want cheap and bulk-standard, leave this idyllic setting and venture into town. If you want a touch of luxury without overindulgence, park here (for free) and take in the atmosphere. My sandwich filling was very generous, very fresh and very welcome after a healthy walk in the beautiful countryside of West Sussex. My friend had the Persian Rice (so good, we asked for the recipe!) and a bowl of chips with blue cheese was a naughty extra we couldn't resist. We visited during a difficult restart for such businesses coming out of a pandemic lockdown, and were relieved at the ease and relaxed atmosphere of the system adopted for customer safety. I've tried to find criticism but can't (maybe laminate the menus so they could wipe and reuse, to save a little paper? Best I could come up with) so his is a positive review.The menu was a little reduced to accommodate necessary changes during the restart, but was still wonderfully varied. I look forward to the return of the full menu.Just as important as atmosphere, price and safety, was the fact that the staff appear to genuinely enjoy their work. I met the manageress, an unassuming young lady who clearly makes her staff as comfortable as her guests, adding to an atmosphere worthy of prices that are not extortionate, but a little above average. After all-This is not a roadside truckers Cafe, this is the home of Polo in the Heart of the South Downs National Park, this IS above average, but you'll feel you belong and you'll want to return. Visit the nearby ruins, watch the Polo, explore the old town (you might recognise it from Foyles War!) then come back for tea and cake.

Came with a friend today for a light bite. I chose a vegetarian sausage sandwich which was very nice and nice to have a sandwich that has something different from egg and cheese. At £6.50 just for the sandwich and no side salad or chips was too much. A lot of place charge £5 for a sandwich with nothing else with it and think that too much as well.

I ordered a mozzarella tomato and pesto sandwich. It came stuffed with rocket as well. I took it all,out, the subtle taste of mild mozzarella and tomato was overpowered by the bitter rocket. A really bad combination!

Is it really a year since I last visited ? Another good visit: very busy, with a good choice of Specials along with the standard menu. I had a creamy linguini with spinach and feta. Very filling but managed to find room for the last slice of carrot cake which was also good: not too oily with good icing. Decaf tea was a little disappointing but we were able to sit for ages and chat which was lovely. Staff very helpful, as previously, although large number of diners does lead to some delays.

Lunch Friday 28 Feb 20. Arrived just after 1pm and found all tables taken even though weather bad. However a table soon became free. Staff welcoming and friendly. There were three of us and we had Thai crab cakes which came with a rocket and mango salad plus I ordered a side of sweet potato fries. My wife had roasted butternut squash risotto and mother-in-law had egg mayo sandwich. We also had three hot drinks and Belgium waffles. Total £55. All food arrived quickly, was hot(not sandwich) and was absolutely delicious. We sat in table 1. Good choice on menu and really enjoyed our visit. Ice-cream on waffles really creamy. Farm shop interesting but quite expensive. Would definitely visit again.

This was our third visit to this busy litttle restaurant which is situated just outside Midhurst surrounded by beautiful countryside. It is busy but well organised by a Scots lassie, a comprehensive menu of interesting well presented tasty food, no wonder itis busy. The salt beef baguette was just as it should be, garnished with triple cooked chips and a colourfull salad garnish, my friend had a toasted sandwich and an Americano, myself a well made Latte. All in all another pleasant interlude.Adjoining the restaurant is a mini specialist food shop with a butchers of Harrods standards and being Friday a comprehensive fresh fish stall was outside.
