Visit our tea room

Enjoy traditional home baked cooking and a wide range of refreshments at our farmhouse tea room, and delight in the splendid views of Malhamdale. All food is prepared daily from the finest and freshest local ingredients.

We offer a warm welcome to walkers and cyclists – you can buy your lunch or top-up your picnics with food from the shop and tea room.

Our seasonal specials board is always worth a look, delicious dishes cooked from the season's best produce. When the weather's cold, come and enjoy our winter warmers; a meaty casserole served in a Yorkshire pudding or our hearty homemade soups – parsnip and lemon is one of our favourites. And if you prefer something lighter, try our special turkey and mango chutney sandwich, or our goats cheese and caramelised onion panini.

We are proud of our home-baked quiches: from the delicious Town End double cheese filling to the delicate smoked trout. Or try our Penrith pork pie platter – with a range of toppings to make your mouth water. Whatever your choice, you won't leave us hungry.

And to slake your thirst, we sell a range of drinks including Taylor's coffee and tea, home-made fruit smoothies, milkshakes and Fentiman's botanically brewed drinks.

Bringing the kids to the Dales? We prepare smaller portions of sandwiches for smaller mouths at lower prices and we serve a children's fish and chip special.

And after you've enjoyed your meal, you'll find most ingredients used in our dishes available to buy in the farm shop.

New for 2012 our Early Morning Menu served until 11.30am offers porridge, croissants, bagels, crumpets, bacon and egg baps, and in the afternoon we've introduced a traditional afternoon tea served from 2.30pm.
