The menu here showcases a range of crowd-pleasing dishes, ideal for customising your event. Guests can expect standout brunch items like the indulgent Posh Sausage Butty, featuring Cumberland sausage with sage, avocado, a rich yolk egg, and damson ketchup on a sesame charcoal brioche.
For those seeking a hearty option, we like the look of the burger selection with the Crispy Chicken Burger, which includes smoked streaky bacon and sweet spiced maple dressing on toasted sesame brioche, or bowls like the Warm Goodness Bowl with pumpkin hummus, freekeh, charred broccoli, smokey cauliflower, edamame, maple roasted carrots and black onion seeds. With sides like triple-cooked chips, autumnal salad and tater tots. For something sweet, we think that desserts like Toasted Banana Bread with blackberry jam, chocolate soil, oat fraiche and dark chocolate absolutely do the trick.
With its thoughtful menu, beautiful decor, and dedication to quality, The Farmer’s Mistress offers a memorable and versatile venue for a variety of celebrations, with an ideal location to boot.
