Lovely spot, great food, reasonable prices for top quality produce. Lovely play area for families. Well worth a visit.

My husband and two small children (7 and 5) have been coming here for the past 2 years. We LOVE the shop, it began as a treat which has now become a regular shop for us for the best produce in the area. My children love the play park and the animals in the fields beyond as well as a hot chocolate - my husband and I enjoy a sit down outside with a coal town coffee whilst they have fun. We love forage!

OMG what a delicious lovely menu from Sunday lunch to Evening Meal specialist dining everything tastes so delicious I've delayed the review but having visited 4 / 5 times now i think it deserves a 5 out of 5 or even a 10 out of 10 well worth a visit the restaurant manager is well informed and educated staff are really friendly helpful and informative. Chefs are really skilled they cater for my wife, who can not eat a lot and cater for me who loves food Thank you all Brilliant experience i suggest you book and youll enjoy my best meal was fillet steak med rare lush dont forget tripple cooked chips lush

A fab location for a coffee with children. We really enjoy frequenting to the forage when the weather allows and always feel relaxed when leaving. The views are simply stunning and the atmosphere is ambient . The only frustrating reason why I can’t award 5 stars on this occasion is the prices of food and drink . It is borderline ridiculous. Great for a coffee , and possibly a cake once a month but certainly not worth purchasing food for the cost.

Went there yesterday for a light lunch with a friend. Having looked at the menu on line beforehand I was looking forward to the Penllyn Estate Hog Roast sandwich. I was so disappointed, the sandwich was cut in half but consisted of two doorstep hunks of bread on each half and a small slice of pork with a small amount of apple and cinnamon sauce and sage and onion stuffing. Please Forage, fill the sandwich with pork, not two small slices. Regularly visit the takeaway section of Forage when walking with the dog and thoroughly enjoy the coffee, but noticed last week how grubby the place looked and how filthy the front door window was. Tap in the ladies loo is also very insecure which I’ve told them about in the past. Doesn’t fill you with confidence if these simple things are not addressed.

Forage hosted a Post-Christmas supper for the local WI group. What a lovely evening they gave us. Room beautifully set out, absolutely fanatic food, charming staff and a very reasonable price with a large glass of wine each provided at no extra cost. Can’t recommend enough. Thank you so much Christiano and all the chefs and serving staff

Wow! What a wonderful evening! Attended our Annual WI post Christmas dinner at Forage. This year we decided on a change of our usual venue, and it was a great success. 45 WI ladies of a certain age thoroughly enjoyed an absolutely delicious 3 course meal accompanied by lots of good wine. It was the best WI post Christmas meal I have attended in all the years, in my opinion. Each course was quality (and quantity!) I started with a lovely smoked salmon on a bed of spinach and capers, and toasted muffin. topped with a perfectly cooked poached egg. I am fussy with my poached eggs and this was perfect and runny. Other starters included a terrine. Soup, ham croquettes. All excellent. For main course I had a huge portion of beef. Think it was half a cow! It was superb, tender and melt in the mouth, on a bed of mash, with shallot. Kale, red cabbage and delicious gravy. I managed around 3/4. Other mains included turkey and belly pork. All much praised. For pudding I had cheesecake with a fabulous, (suspect Fablas,) clementine sorbet. Ate the sorbet and brought most of the gorgeous cheesecake home for hubby. There was a much praised sticky toffee pudding and Christmas pudding. We had our usual Secret Santa gifts between main and deserts. The staff were excellent, efficient and friendly and huge compliments to the chef. We will return.

Always such an enjoyable experience going to Forage Farm. Whether it’s a coffee and cake, or a look in the shop, we love it! We usually go and get meat from the butchers and they are even really helpful when I ask for meat for my dog! We will be going back for more amazing, local produce.

"My partner and I had the most amazing time at Forage! We'd heard great things about this place, and it totally lived up to the hype. From the moment we walked in, we were greeted by a super friendly waitress who showed us to our table and explained the menu. The sommelier was a total pro and helped us pick the perfect wine to pair with our meal. We had the most delicious scallops and a perfectly cooked steak. And don't even get me started on the homemade bread and olive oil! The atmosphere was so cozy and romantic, with soft music and candlelight. And the dessert? To die for! The tarte tatin was out of this world. The chef even surprised us with a little plate of stuffed dates – such a nice touch. The staff were all so friendly and attentive. We had such a great night, we'll definitely be back!

Very helpful staff when we had questions about the stock and local information. Really impressed with the variety of produce available.

We have been regular customers at Forage for breakfast and lunch and always book well in advance. Today was our last visit (26/8/24). We arrived at the correct time of our booking to be shown a completely unsuitable table next to the ordering point and till we asked to be moved but were told no other tables were available even though there were clearly empty tables of two available. We made a second request to be moved this was refused so we left, we will not return. Had all other tables been occupied we would not be complaining but as there were other tables available we felt let down.

We dropped in in passing and thought we'd try Forage out. Great decision, we encountered friendly, professional service, a limited lunch menu but wow, such good quality steaks, accompaniments and desserts. You do pay a little more than in your average pub but there is a marked difference. Well worth it and we'd like to think next time for a treat will be spent in Forage.

Excellent layout, very nice staff and butchers, I liked it because you had ginger and rhubarb jam. Pepper sausage rolls are lush
