Farmshop in Stroud

Fantastic range of great produce

Very busy but food is amazing so worth the stop if you don't mind the crowds.

Unnecessarily stressful experience. Victim of own success. Queues for absolutely everything.

Gloucester Farmshop is always excellent, from food options to merchandise everything is excellent value and of a high quality. The service is excellent and great free parking

It's just a really good service area !

Lovely idea for motorway services. The farm shop is very nice. Used to be really good food... but now nit so much! They can do with some gluten free options 👍

What a delight to find this as a service station. Decided to drive back 40 mins today to get some meat supplies & cheeses & pies . So happy to see this so close to warwickshire

Great example of how motorway services can/should be. The Farm Shop is incredibly well stocked and represents very high quality. You do pay a premium for the high standards though.

Excellent location with activities for the whole family. Fresh hot food available different menus for every choice

Good place to stop, especially if you have a pet as they have an area for walking dogs & little quiet places to sit & admire the view. Or you can just relax with a drink & bite to eat

What a great selection of foods. Not stupidly expensive. Steak has been the best I've ever had. Great stop. Shame petrol is 30p/l more expensive

Stopped off here this morning on journey home & am now trying to plan journeys so we can visit again 🥰 fabulous place - great concept, food, staff & shop.

Horrendously busy had a wee and left

Gloucester motorway service station is the best in the UK in everyway my humble opinion please let's have more similar it's a great example!

Great range of local products. So much better than normal service stations.

Very well run, good decor,clean.

Wonderful shop with a huge range of fresh and delicious food. Could spend a fortune in there

On our way down to Devon we stopped for a break and to get some food. Usually everything is 5 star. Got to the till to pay and noticed the strawberries was not looking good. The lady said to take some from another box. The second person at the till said they have had a lot of complaints about the strawberries. Why didn't anyone take them away. How many people got home to find the bad state of them and had to throw expensive strawberries in the bin

Stopped here on the way back from holiday to pick up some veg. 2.80 for a cauliflower which was no better than Asda. Checked the broccoli this morning all yellow bits on it. Off to marks then

Like many travellers we were not there for long but it is one of the larger farm shops. We just got sandwiches but there was much for the souvenir hunter etc.

Nice clean environment, good quality food, have had food at the cafe twice and both times it's been great. Polite and friendly, helpful staff. Much more spacious and relaxed than other services recommended.

Lovely products. Unfortunately much too expensive for me.

First visit. Absolutely fabulous. Very clean. Staff so friendly and courteous. Will be back.

We cannot understand all these recessions. You are completely ripped off here! Everything is way too expensive and when I look at the plates of food... everything looks soggy and overcooked (mass production) and I don't even want to talk about the coffee prices, it's an outrage! 1 star for being very clean and 2 for the fact that there are enough clean toilets for the masses of people.

Brilliant lots of fresh stuff a bit pricey but if you like it fresh you won't mind

Wasn’t great. We were looking forward to food that wasn’t the usual fast food from services, unfortunately it wasn’t to be. The ordering was straightforward but the food looked nothing like the picture. I ordered the Brie & bacon toastie, which in the picture looked really full & appetising, however my toastie had what could only be described as a couple of shavings of Brie & only a couple of fairly overcooked pieces of bacon. The only thing that was in abundance was the marmalade chutney 🙄my kids meals were also much smaller than pictured & very disappointing. As someone else wrote, I don’t mind paying premium prices so long as I get food that matches that. This was not.

Bad behavior makes you feel like he is pushing you to eat. If you don't give them a tip, they will put a commission on your bill, but the food is, frankly, nice.

Not cheap but always worth the effort to stop off at. Amazing choice of fresh and local products

Stopped here on Saturday morning, extremely busy, used the self service to order the coffee, long wait and feels very impersonal now. I have stopped here before and liked it but not anymore. Coffee was expensive and not as nice as last time.

This shop has very fancy local and international products, anything from groceries, delicatessen, butchers, to house products and clothing. They have tasty cakes, and I particularly love the chocolate and salted caramel cake, it never disappoints. The quality is very good for all the products we have purchased.

Beautiful rest stop! Food was tasty and fresh. Pet-friendly, handicapped accessible, and clean. Gas was priced a little high, but overall, a great stop.

Really lovely place to visit! Although a bit expensive, the quality of food and veggies are premium. Everything we bought lasted a lot longer than food bought from your local lidl for example. The meat also taste different and a lot fresher! They also have very nice bakery section. Must visit!

Stopped on the way home to grab a bite to eat. Service from the smiley young lady behind the breakfast counter was amazing, just a real shame that your bacon was left under heat lamps and like tasteless chewy cardboard……

My breakfasts here are always absolutely spot on. Great place for a meeting too. Unlike any other services, this is actually a nice place to be. Friendly staff too.

The building and the concept is terrific but sadly the food and the service is mediocre at best and overpriced. Very happy to pay £15 for a meal with a soft drink but this really was disappointing.

Large, clean, lighted parking lot, shower, toilet, you can't pay with a SNAP account, only Visa or Mastercard! 23 pounds and 5 pounds back for coffee, food, etc...

First visit was awful. 2nd visit to give the benefit of the doubt and it was closed! Not everyone travels at day time hours. I won't be back.

Great place to visit. For us, it's a one and a half hour drive, but it was well worth the journey to go there. Lots of produce, to choose from...Nice place to eat out at too.

We visited Southbound service driving to Devon 4 days ago and today popped in to Northbound driving back home. Very impressed with both services: Freshly baked all sorts of bread and deliciously cooked meals. Unfortunately the prices in the Farm Shop are astronomical: an aubergine would cost you 6 times more than in Lidl. We could not find any prices for the cooked food apart from 2 daily specials. Regardless to this, we had to eat, so we were pleasantly surprised when we weren't charged a fortune for a cottage pie and a lasagne. As well I was given for free a sticky toffee pudding (because I had a daily special). All three dishes were absolutely delicious and the portions were generous. As well, we could not stop ourselves from buying focascia bread for home. All the staff there are very polite. Will we stop at these services in the future? - YES without hesitation

Had some food after a long journey from the north east and it was fantastic. Not sure what farm supplies the shop but it all tasted super fresh and delicious!

Lovely place, but I don't know who decides the prices but they are shocking compared to my last visit.. Tea 3.15 for mug not a pot 4.15 for a flat white, brownie 3.95 for a little square and so on, you seriously need to sort those prices out, disgusting the way you're treating 😑 people coming in....

Stopped here on our way to Bath to use the restroom and grab some lunch. We were pleasantly surprised at how nice it was. We had expected it to be just like your regular service station but it was far from it. It really had a natural vibe to it all and the food and restrooms were of great standard. Spacious, clean and had a fair bit to do.

Overpriced and disappointing quality. I bought a steak and ale pie that was all veg and gravy, one tiny bit meat in the whole pie for £5.95. Tasteless! Stingily filled sandwiches and very bland vegetarian options. An absolute rip off! My advice: make and take your own sandwiches for the road.

Extremely expensive. £7.90 for 2 cappuccinos

Two bacon rolls = £13. Honestly! No butter. Not toasted. Tepid. Roll tasted old. No garnish or tomato. Terrible dry brittle overcooked unsmoked tasteless bacon & unlikely of good provenance. I'd pay it and not complain if it was quality, fresh and lovely - like you get at Baffle Haus for eg. Absolute rip off outfit sorry as have had better at 2 star hygiene truck stop vans! £8 for two coffees on top. So disappointed. Never again as value is not an abstract concept unrelated to quality!

You can't call it 'Mac n cheese' if there's little to no cheese involved! Please sort it out, cheese is cheaper than meat! AND you're a Farmhouse stop...everything else makes it the best stop in England.

The best cakes in the area and delicious ice cream, other products are also of very good quality, this is definitely my favorite service. Whenever I'm nearby, I always visit there

Tried chocolate cake and ice cream, both great taste and locally made but extortionate prices given they are made not far from site. I bet same products from half way across the world would be half the price

Makes a journey on the M5 worth it! Has Fast Charge Points.

Best services in the UK by far!

It was early on a Friday evening....the hot food was average and overpriced....and Owen and his colleague, whilst making my coffee, lacked integrity and dcency in their conversation making me and my family very uncomfortable. The whole experience was disappointing

Just what you need at a service station, a loaf of bread for £3.80, and garlic beer

Really disappointing coffee ☹️ beautifully landscaped service station but really expensive and poor coffee.

Nice and modern shop with a lot of great quality products. There’s also a cheesemonger, a patisserie and a deli inside. So many local products and things from all over the UK. The prices are quite reasonable too.

Head & shoulders above any other service station I've been to. Farm shop is quite expensive though

Oh my goodness. SO NEEDED this. Food to please many 'fussies' like me. Absolutely delicious. You can't resist temptation. Yumminess and good for you, too. What's not to like? Xxxx

FABULOUS - a breath of fresh air!!!

Lovely clean toilets, food a little expensive at £6 for a toasted cheese and bacon sandwich to go and little bits of overcooked bacon made it a big disappointment 😞

Great services just off the M5. Really fancy local products, nice friendly staff. 👍

Stopped on the way to south wales, so lovely had pie and chips wanted to buy everything there 🥰

Best farm shop around. Great restaurant, lovely products in the shop. Definitely worth a visit

The best service station I've been to in the UK, for sure. It's not cheap, but food and products taste/feel quality so you largely get what you pay for.

Always a nice place to relax and eat. Highly recommend this place.

There is an outdoor terrace for the cafe with tables and chairs. This is the lake beside the terrace. A lovely, peaceful oasis on the M5 - my favourite motorway services. I always stop there for lunch to and from Devon. The food is good, local and ‘home cooked’.

Whilst the atmosphere and facilities at this services is second to none, I personally don't believe the price of many items is wholly justified. The farm shop is stocked with a plethora of different locally sourced items; from clothing, to toys, to alcohol. All of which seems to be of a high quality, however the price tags are not for the faint of heart - if you are looking for a high end, luxury services experience then do consider stopping here.

If only every service station provided this quality of food and service. So much better than all the rest. Good value, tasty food - the steak and ale pie with mashed potato, peas and gravy was excellent. Loos spotless, in fact the whole place spotless. Design of the building is fantastic and allows you to truly have a break from driving. My only suggestion, request - please will they buy up more of the shoddy, lacklustre, overpriced service stations out there!

Always stop here, south and northbound. Food is good and the shop is even better 😋

Lovely Food slightly overpriced on some items , but the Quality makes up for it .

I'm a sucker for a good mid-journey shoppertunity and this is one of the best

A real treat for a motorway services. Proper food and no real junk stuff. No gimmicky souvenirs all quality produce.

Great farm shop with so much choice. Also had a drink in the cafe area. Lovely so much better than your standard service station

Great place, so clean and good quality local produce

Bring your credit card!!!! £4 for a sausage roll

Best steak and Ale pie I have ever eaten

Absolutely gorgeous motorway services. Beautiful design, and amazing range of produce from locally sourced suppliers.

Lovely place high quality produce

We stopped here yesterday around 8:30am, we had a bacon roll and a sausage and bacon roll and it was cold and bread was stale. Very disappointing.

A phenomenonal experience highly recommended 👌

Absolutely wonderful as always. The varied choice of food and goods was great.

Lovely place to stop, always worth making the effort, not cheap, BUT great value, and superb quality.

An impressive selection of meats, cheeses, alcohol, condiments and other non-food items to choose from, at fairly reasonable prices considering its a farm shop inside a service stop. I would like to return to try different items next time!

Love it.... ABIT pricey.... but great food...

Love coming here. A great find. Amazing choice of produce on offer

Fantastic choice of local products!

We just had takeaway sandwiches and cake. Monday lunchtime’s me. My wife and I were both disappointed with our sandwiches. I had cheese and ham baguette but the baguette was too dense and chewy. My wife’s tuna and sweetcorn on granary bread was dry. We each had cakes and they were ok but nothing special. The courgette and lemon was dry and crumbly with a very sweet, sugary topping. Was not moist as we would expect. The chocolate and cherry tiffin was nice. We stopped at these services due to their reputation but were disappointed with these particular choices.

Do not cater for celiac sufferers. Is gluten free food but cant guaranteed cross contamination . Very dissatisfied

Lovely food great for walking dogs

Hmm. Stopped for the breakfast ☕️🍽 £13 for 2 sausages, scrambled eggs, 1 black pudding, a small ball of bubble n squeak, baked beans, 1 cold slice of toast and a coffee. Food was lovely but not really value for money. Toast was cold, I know some people like it that way so I guess that's 50/50 🤷‍♂️ Service was lacklustre, nothing like the TV series. Last visit we walked around the nick nack shops (which was a while ago to be honest so I'm happy to be corrected) and was disappointed at how much of the stock was from China and elsewhere and all available elsewhere at much lower prices. I was really expecting to see arts and crafts from local manufacturers and artisans. Hopefully that's changed now, I didn't think to look today but next time I find myself in there I try to remember to look and I'll post an update. Outside, I only spotted a couple of EV chargers but there was work going on close to them so hopefully more to follow. Plenty of parking and it was clean and tidy considering the weather. Would I go back if I didn't need to? Based on todays experience, I'm afraid it's a No from me.

Not your typical motorway service station. Very pet friendly. The bread and cakes are fantastic. None of the usual big brands.

Really amazing stop. Something new and different. Wonderful place to walk your fur babies, my beagle loves this stop. Food is beautiful! Shop has so much choice, it really feels like you've popped to the shop instead of a service stop. Facilities are clean. There is accessible bathrooms as well as large family room including changing table and smaller toilet for the smaller people in your family. Attached photos are of the shop. I know there are a lot but it gives you a glimpse into what they offer. Definitely recommend this stop! A***

The vegan bakery range 😍 Also have vegan pie's, sandwiches, wraps, scotch eggs! So lovely inside with a lovely seating area ....completely forget you're in the services 😂

We love calling in to your services on our way to Stroud. The shop is lovely and has different items to purchase including quality food to take out. The food in the Restaurant was wonderful and always has been. However we were shocked of how the Restaurant side was.The chairs were scruffy and the number of tables that had not been cleared was unbelievable, never have we seen the Restaurant in such a state before. There were lots of food on the table and on the floor which obviously had not been cleaned up. We will still come again as we do love the Services you offer but I think the staff ought to take a bit more care in cleaning the beautiful eating area.

Nice place to stop of the motorway, wish all service stops had one of these.

Great food, fantastic produce in the farm shop. Pleasant staff but simply not enough of them. We visited for food and the flatbread stand was understaffed - ingredients ran out and the queue of customers had to wait for someone to run to the kitchen for more. Secondly, the hot drinks area was understaffed with only one person making drinks. A large queue built up and the order screen had all gone red due to the long wait for each order. Tables remained unclean for prolonged periods.

Great place to stop on return from holiday. Lots of lovely food and drink.

Always stop at this service station when heading South. Food consistently good, tasty, served hot and service quick. Nice views from indoor and outdoor seating areas. Staff pleasant especially the slightly older lady who clears the tables. There is always something to temp me to purchase in the nice quality shop both edible or none edible. Plenty of parking and clean toilets. Well worth a visit.

I love these services especially the choice of locally sourced food and drink but I didn’t give it 5 stars because of chap who was the drinks maker on the left hand side cafe. He made a hot chocolate for a young girl before mine, practically through it across the counter with no lid on chocolate sloshed everywhere, no apology the poor girl had to ask him for another cup to put it in. The flat white he made for me was the worse flat white I have ever had. It was weak and although flat whites have minimal foam this had none and I had to pay £3.50 for the privilege!

Expensive food that's not great for what your paying! Not a truckers or family stop.

Lovely services. Had a nice snack for lunch brie bacon and cranberry toasted sandwich very tasty. Would definitely stop here again.

Excellent service great set up.😁👍🏻
