Langloch Farm Cafe in South Lanarkshire

After failed attempts at a couple of other places as we made our way home we had almost given up on lunch (fully booked at The Tipsy Cow, Airdrie and a power cut at The Silver Birch Café at Crossford). Thankfully Langloch Farm was open and despite being busy we got a parking space and a table. This time around, no doubt wary of a chilling wind, the main door had been closed to prevent a through-draught and customers were being directed to the “dog entrance“! We came in through the patio doors and noticed that plenty of dogs had found their way in too. I think we were in a minority of customers who didn’t have their pet with them. If you’re not keen on sharing your eating space with animals, probably better to think twice about visiting on days like this however the dogs were all well behaved thankfully. There is a decent selection of soups, sandwiches, etc and we kept it simple by having a couple of Bacon, Brie and Cranberry Paninis (£7.95 each). These were very good - crispy bacon, melted brie and plenty of cranberries together with some very tasty salad and coleslaw. The cake display is large and for dessert my wife had a piece of Passion fruit & Coconut Cake whilst I had a slice of Lemon & Lime Sponge. They were both good however the Passion fruit & Coconut was particularly nice. We had a couple of large Americano coffees, a regular one and a tea along with our lunch which brought the bill to £36 for two which we thought was reasonable value for money. There is a small play area and a short walking trail on the site but neither were being used due to the weather conditions at the time of our visit. Nice place between Lanark town and the Hyndford Bridge if you’re passing through.

Great cafe for a snack or meal, dogs and kids welcome , we called in on Saturday afternoon , got a table for 2 and 5 minutes later had our latte and tea , 10 minutes later had our scotch broth and a lovely cheese scone , tasty food and very quick and friendly service , there is a kids play area at the rear of the building

Our first visit - the food was great, the cakes were superb and everyone was so friendly and delightful. Very dog friendly. We will definitely be back 😊

The café is located on the outskirts of Lanark, between Hyndford Bridge and Lanark Agricultural Market and provides breakfast and lunches. There is parking onsite, a play park and a short walking trail. The interior is bright and modern and we were quickly welcomed and shown to a table. It transpires this was in line with the door and with people lingering in the doorway as they arrived and departed we experienced a bit of a draught during the visit (it was a chilly day). The menu doesn’t extend to mains but there are plenty of light bites in the form of soup, sandwiches, toasties, paninis and baked potatoes. There is also a good selection of cakes and tray bakes. My wife and I both opted for the Bacon, Brie & Cranberry Panini served with salad and coleslaw (£7.25) and a large and regular Americano coffee. These were brought to the table in reasonable time and everything was of a good quality and taste. We decided to have meringue roulade for dessert, along with another couple of regular coffees. The roulade, with lots of cream, some fresh raspberries, and assorted sweets would probably use up an adult’s entire sugar intake for the week but we just about managed to finish them - could probably share one between two. Our lunch, which was filling, cost £33 in total and we thought this was reasonable value. We would return if in the area and looking for a snack.
