Poplars Farm Shop in South Gloucestershire

Excellent breakfast freshly cooked and perfect … the staff were good and we had very little time to wait for our order to arrive Super coffees as well

Really glad we went there. Staff were lovely, and although kitchen had closed we were fed delicious salad and chips, will go again. I’m fussy!

Really lovely food and friendly staff, and great selection in the farm shop. My partner and I went with our 18m toddler thinking there would be some animals to see and a park for her to play in but there really isn't anything for little ones. Not the farm shops fault - ours for assuming!

Visited here just as it was between two of the family addresses. Seen in passing but never been in so thought we’d give it a go. Oh what a great decision !! Friendly greeting and great layout to the Cafe. You can reserved tables by calling beforehand. Order at the till, any variation was offered. Menu is very easy to follow, obviously we went for the Farmshop Breakfast, (think large full English, but with local produce!). Great English tea and nice teapots. The handmade sausages are huge, bacon beautifully cooked, eggs perfect, beans in small bowl, mushrooms, hash brown and granary toast. Just perfect. We will definitely be back, also dog friendly. Only moan would be the carpark has a number of large potholes, which with the recent rain were deceptively deep !!

Couldn't complain about anything even if I was in a filthy mood, always a young serving crowd but always lovely, food is always great quality, sourced very local to the shop (the farm itself), same quality ingredients sold in the shop, if you want a good sausage get it here ❤️❤️❤️

We waited too long……we were very hungry…we had half an hour for lunch and it took 40 mins for this cafe to serve us cheesy chips and quiche chips & salad! How hard is that? After 25 mins I asked how long it would be and was told that they had to deal with 30 orders and there were 4 ahead of us. It was a lunch hour and they should expect to be busy particularly the start of the school holidays…. When the order finally arrived the member of staff apologised for the wait but didn’t offer a complimentary drink as a gesture which would have been good customer service. The food was bland and un exciting and very little choice for vegans or vegetarians which was also disappointing in 2023! We will not be returning.

Our breakfast was served in a recycled carton and our drinks were extra when drinks are advertised as in breakfast cost which was too steep considering I have had better breakfasts in lots of places. The pods were rather a novity but I was not impressed with the expensive breakfast.

Well happy with the service, food is fantastic and staff are very friendly and helpful. Definitely recommend this place and will be making it a regular spot 👍🏻😀

Popped in for a bite to eat and a coffee. Menu was printed on the counter and very expensive. We decided to have a coffee. The milk wasnt fresh milk in the jug and it was boiled to death. The milk was sour and started to skin on the top. Not very nice. Got money back ok

The cafe here is really lovely with a great selection of drinks and milk alternatives! The staff in the cafe are really friendly and so polite. The covid procedures are really well done and the little pods are great! The farm shop is well stocked and great to look around, we will definitely be returning :)

£7.50 for a bang average Sausage, bacon & egg bap. The four of us who were present unanimously agreed we will not be returning.

Went with friends to have breakfast here . Now they are working under certain COVID restrictions and trying to do their best but serving breakfast in cardboard boxes leaves a bit to be desired. And at £25 with a coffee for two a bit overpriced. The food itself was ok except my sausage was tasteless and when you have to sit outside you have to eat it quickly or it gets cold very quick. I had breakfast at another cafe in this group last weekend and it was served on plates outside on a cold morning but it was fine so this offer was a bit of a disappointment. Would I go back , I don’t know, maybe. I do realise they are trying to provide a service under difficult circumstances but there is room for improvement.

Food is excellent and great value for money. Large seating area outside, pigs & goats and play area to keep the kids occupied. Excellent and friendly service. Lovely rustic cafe on the outskirts of the city.

The food here is very good, and good value for money, the vegetarian breakfast is excellent. It is nice to have different choices on the vege breakfast , like halloumi,

Stopped off for breakfast as several people had mentioned how good it was. On entering, there was a sign saying, that as all food is freshly cooked to order, there is a slight delay of around 20 mins. The place was very busy which is normally a good sign. On entering, we were quickly approached by a friendly member of staff, who promptly showed us to a suitable table. We were informed to order our food at the till when we were ready.We both opted for the farmhouse breakfast. It was quite pricey for what you got but we don't mind paying a bit extra for good local freshly cooked produce. Our order arrived within about 10 mins, quicker than we expected as it was very busy. It was very disappointing to say the least, especially for how expensive it was. My partners eggs were nothing short of hard boiled. Both of our bacon was rock hard and couldn't be cut with our knives. It was obviously pre cooked and warmed up to serve. I will say that the hash brown was probably one of the best we have ever had. Crispy outside and fluffy inside but at £8.95 each, we've had much better at less cost. Maybe we were just unlucky with our timing, who knows.

This is a lovely spot for breakfast or lunch. The food is lovely, although not the cheapest it is good quality and worth it. There is some outdoor play equipment for small children and plenty of outdoor benches and tables for eating outside during the covid pandemic and feeling safe. There are also pigs and goats which children enjoy seeing.

We visited Poplars Cafe with friends, and found the team to be very friendly and supportive to our needs. My partner had been shielding through lockdown, and the staff happily sat us in thier cabin, and opened the side entrance, so we had space from the other guests, and didn't need to walk through the cafe to get to our table. The cabin was a great size for our party to social distance. The staff were obviously busy, but friendly and happy to help. The food served was very tasty, and our 1 year old enjoyed running around the outdoor space and seeing the piglets! We would definitely visit again.

Four of us had lunch, can’t fault the food all very nice. Downsides were some COVID prep. You get your own cutlery from a big holder so end up putting your hands on all sorts of cutlery. Also track and trace was taken but not by staff, you have to all use the same pen to fill it in, surely better if one staff member does it not all members of public. Also tables close together with one family sitting back to back virtually against us.

Pre booked a table here for today. But after ordering, paying and receiving our drinks, I realised we had paid full price and not got our 50% off. I queried this as soon as I remembered we should have 50% off and they said the til had broken so it was not possible to do the scheme. I feel like this should have been explained, they had my contact details and so could have contacted me beforehand to let me know. They also could have said at the time of ordering. Instead, when I later queried it they pointed out a small inconspicuous sign at floor level 'explaining'. Feeling very disappointed I asked my fellow guests if they wished to stay we all agreed we would as by the time we would get to somewhere else it would be a very late lunch. However..... 1 hour later our sandwiches finally arrived!!! A ridiculous amount of time to wait for a spot of lunch and a huge bill of almost 40 pounds for not much more than sandwiches which were nothing special. I really wish they had been more upfront and honest with us before we ordered or arrived, I was with my parents it would have been an upheaval for them to up and leave so felt we had to stay. I felt like we were misled, and because of this we will now never return, whereas if they were up front and honest we would have returned another day. Disappointing.

Lovely all day cooked breakfast, sausages were delicious. Great Big safe outside play area for my grandson to run around In natural surroundings. Homemade carrot cake was an absolute treat. Staff were friendly, helpful & couldn’t of made the visit any better, thank you so much for your service. In these uncertain times you have done an amazing job with your social distancing measures you have put in place you made our visit a much more enjoyable experience feeling safe. We cannot wait to return, great job, great food, oh & the homemade Carrot cake, yummy. X

I Have been visiting poplars farm cafe and shop for years as I am a local to the area I always visit here with family and friends when they come over my way to visit. My most recent visit was very disappointing I came with my mum this time I googled before hand and looked on the facebook page for what time it closes it stated 5pm we arrived just before 4pm thinking we had more than enough time to enjoy a late lunch and buy anything we wanted in the shop after. We found a table straight away there were a few other familys in there. I went to the counter to order to be told we stop serving food at 2pm thats when the chef goes home thought to myself thats a bit off nothing states that online or anywhere in the cafe and also does it take a chef to make a sandwich or baguette etc. But anyway ordered a slice of cake a can of coke and a pot of tea we hadn’t been sat down no longer than 5 minutes and a member of staff came over to us and everyone else in the cafe to say just so you know we close at 4pm by this time it had just gone 4pm she said we will give you ten minutes I questioned the fact online it states that the farm shuts at 5pm she replied with the cafe closes at 4pm and its the shop that closes at 5pm I was shocked think it’s disgusting nothing was mentioned when we ordered to just simply say just so you know we close in 5 minutes but your still welcome to order but no they took our money and said nothing!!! Shocking customer service so we just left right away didnt want to sit there being eyeballed by the staff (older ladies) so desperate to get home whilst they were tidying up the rest of the cafe talking about that they couldnt stay on much later at work and they needed to go and saying to each other you go now I will stay but the other one replying no you should go first so unprofessional find the younger staff and slightly older gentleman much nicer and much more friendly. As we left I re read the massive sign at the entrance to the farm it quite clearly states closing time at 5pm nothing about cafe closes at 4pm shop at 5pm. So on this occasion I didnt spend my usual amount of money in the shop and left we won’t be returning again also in the whole ten minutes or so I was there I heard many people ask to order food and be turned away there missing a trick there not extending food times. Save your money and go elsewhere.

We had lovely well cooked bacon sandwiches and pots of tea for brunch, and an enjoyable peaceful atmosphere.

My wife and I came here for breakfast along with our baby. A friend had reccomended it to us. It was a good recomendation as the breakfast was wonderful. We both ordered the farm shop breakfast which also included free tea/coffee. It was cooked to the perfection and tasted great. Very good value.It's a nice setting. Very comfortable and cosy. Our 7 week old baby was very relaxed in here while we ate breakfast. The staff were polite and friendly. The shop is also great. Lots of really great products at a decent price.We look forward to coming back!

Nice, relaxing place. Food good. Good to sit outside with your coffee and food and watch the piglets and if you have children, there are swings and a couple of slides. Lovely on a warm, sunny day...but you can also sit inside or under cover outside.

We had a lovely late breakfast - 2 of us had the vegetarian breakfast (picture) and 1 of us had the farmshop breakfast. We all enjoyed them as they were tasty and portions were really good. It is probably one of the best veggie breakfasts that I have ever had! The free tea/coffee offer with the breakfasts was really good too. The wait for drinks and food to come out was quite slow (30-40 mins) but it was understandable as there weren’t many staff working. We didn’t mind the wait because the food was great when it arrived and the staff were very apologetic. We will return!

We came for tea and cake for an early father’s day treat on a wet weekend after remembering going to the cafe several years ago- remembering the pigs and the chickens, the shop and the lovely cake. We arrived at just gone 3pm (party of 6) and ordered drinks and cake. When the cakes arrived those who had scones discovered their clotted cream when opened was visibly mouldy. The waitress did vaguely apologise and brought replacements. My husbands cherry and almond cake tasted dissapointingly artificial. At 3.30 the waitress came to clear up the cups and plates- clearly they were wanting to close; she did this again 5 minutes later and again another 5 minuites later. We left feeling dissapointed and unwelcome. The kids wanted to play outside after we left the cafe as the rain had stopped. The swings were fun and they enjoyed running on the well kept grass. Dissapointingly the pig pen was overgrown and disused and there were no hens pecking around. I have never written a review before but felt I needed to write this one. We won’t be going back.

Visiting for friends birthday celebration. Lovely table at rear, excellent table service. Food was lush, staff really helpful, including birthday cake. we had a super time, everythjng was just right, thank you .

I went here today disappointed with vegetarian breakfast expected vege sausage and hash brown but only had eggs, mushrooms and tomatoes, friend had normal breakfast one piece of bacon very dry and well done, rest okay. Otherwise good service

If we want to have a late breakfast and feel like spoiling ourselves we always come here for brunch, often with family and friends. We just love the sausages (we think they’re the best for miles). The quality of the food is always high and much of it comes from the farm.The service is always efficient and friendly.Negatives:Not enough toilet facilities for the size of the cafe inside and out.The toilets that are there are not often clean and are a bit smelly. I actually try to avoid using them at all.A bit pricey - especially given that any change incurs a cost...Positives:Great qualityLovely decor/environmentSausages are awesome! You can actually buy them from the farm shop too.All food is fresh, of a high quality and cooked wellService is friendly, welcoming and efficientI’ve never had bad service or food here and it’s been nice to see the cafe develop over the 8-10 years we’ve been comingIt’s nice to sit inside, or outside The log burners give it an extra coziness in the winter

I go often for coffee, maybe cake or brunch... they do a mean bacon or sausage sandwich.. I usually sit in the covered terrace, it's got a lovely atmosphere. The staff are always friendly.

Lovely cafe but there is one pop which is very dirty. Needs a good deep clean unhygenic. Service good though and cakes looked nice

Ordered 2 vegetarian breakfasts, eggs cooked how we asked for them, good value as a drink is included in the price, sat outside, very. enjoyable

We stopped her for an enjoyable coffee and cake break on the May bank holiday. Friendly staff, an outdoor seating area plus indoor cafe. The gluten free, 'raw' Ferrero Rocher cake was heavenly and the coffee was good. Hope to come again.

Poplar farm cafe and pig fun always offers a something for all the family. Be it great food and drink, feeding pigs or trying the extensive play area it’s all quality and well put together. The food is limited range, always a good sign, but fresh and inviting with a local feel to the elements.

The farm shop breakfast is fantastic. The sausages are made by the local butcher and are delicious. This was my children's first experience with an English breakfast and it will be a hard act to follow.

Always visit the Farm Shop/Cafe when visitng my son.

Popped in for lunch with hubby after work. Moved on from poached eggs that could cause injury if thrown at anyone, to sloppy under cooked egg. Rock hard bacon and cold tea.

Went in here whilst waiting for car to be cleaned outside. Seemed like a nice setting to get a few drinks and a cake for my daughter and I.

Changed thename to poplars don't know if it's under new management but quite disappointed with service took forever I thought a bit pricey for what it was, will try again but I'm not in a hurry Ha

The service here was friendly, attentive and prompt. The food portions were large and contained quality ingredients. In all a very pleasant dinning experience.

Went here for some food recently with a relation of mine and was in disbelief how different it was since my last visit a year or so previous.

Breakfast is really tasty here - the produce is full of flavour and is very good quality. I don’t use the shop very much but it looks very nice and they seem to have a variety of products. I recommend the car wash as it’s good value for money and the staff are nice people.

Very expensive and not good service. Food mediocre. Went to buy some products in their shop. Didn't!! Price is definitely an issue

Having visited in May I thought I'd try again now the changes are complete. I waited in a queue to order food for 15 minutes. The food was slow to arrive but was ok. Unfortunately the nice touches have gone.

Popped in for coffee and cake on a not too busy Sunday morning. Had to wait almost 25 minutes for it to arrive (after prompting). That said, the cake was nice when it arrived though the coffee is not special. The whole place seems to be undergoing a reorganisation, hopefully things will improve when it's sorted.

No remorse for the awful food which was served that neither myself nor two daughters could eat. Swimming in grease. Slow. Unapologetic. Just terrible. Apart from the lovely green spaces, the pigs to see and the farm shop I would avoid making a specific effort to go here unless you have both money and time to waste and don't mind leaving with half your plate uneaten

Went on a weekday for lunch to meet a friend. My 2.5 year old had a great time playing on the slides and watching the chickens and pigs. We had brunch rather than lunch as we were quite early. Scrambled egg and salmon on toast, there was a lot of salmon, it tasted really fresh. The outside seating is nice and the service was quick. A very pleasant cafe for families.

Since the new ownership of this popular cafe and shop, there have been some changes. The cafe menu seems to have reduced in size but the quality remains high. Great brunch (or coffee and cake!). The shop is currently being reconfigured with a gift area and now has additional cafe seating. All this reduces the size and selection of the once great array of food items available for purchase - which is a shame. I hope they don't lose focus on what a farm shop is all about.

Went at 10am on a Saturday morning, was quite busy but I still managed to get a table straight away, ordered and was told there was a wait on hot drinks due to being understaffed, which I didn't mind but had to wait 25 mins for 2 chocolates!! Shocking, by this time the cafe had quietened down anyway! Breakfast came after 50 minutes and for £7.95 adult £4.50 child... it was shocking, no beans on the adult breakfast! On a full English!? Bacon was absolutely cremated on mine and my 6 year olds breakfast. Would not recommend and would not eat here again.
