The Good Life Farmshop Cafe

The waiting times at this restaurant were unacceptable, with a 30-minute wait just to get a drink. The kitchen seemed extremely slow and outdated. I do not plan on returning to this restaurant.

Terrible service. Sat waiting to be served for a prolong period, although 5 or 6 members of staff lingered in the kitchen area Food arrived before the drinks, when drinks eventually came they were incorrect. Finally remade and the strawberry milkshake was awful, very watery although not surprised as it had ice in it?! We fancied a toastie although told couldn't do the lunch menu until 12, which is fair enough but it was quiet. The breakfast menu stopped at 11.30 and they must have lost 3 or 4 customers who came in for food and staff told them they would have to wait for lunch to start at 12.. Unfriendly staff and poor service all round

Very poor service. I stood for a while and nobody came up to me. I asked if I could sit anywhere (I had booked) Once at the table my friend and I had to flag down someone to take our order after over 10mins wait. The member of staff seemed disinterested, confused and with no greeting/smile or any customer service skills at all. Once the coffee and cake arrived my friends drink was quite lukewarm but we didn’t want to have to wait for ages again. We drank and ate and left. It’s the 2nd time I have experienced this poor service here so won’t be using the cafe again. The carrot and orange cake is lovely though so would recommend taking it away and eating it at home!

I stopped by for a quick breakfast and received a friendly welcome that continued throughout the service. Nothing was too much trouble. The food was fresh and delicious, and they also have a great farm shop with a wide range of local produce. I will definitely be returning soon and will be recommending this place to others.

In life you generally get what you pay for. This venue was quite expensive for what we ate for lunch, but it was very good quality and the staff were very helpful and friendly. We pre booked for a party of 12 at lunchtime and the staff were very helpful when we arrived early with particular attention paid to our 4 children. The menu was limited, but what they do, they do well in terms of quality, but there is of course a price to be paid for quality food and ingredients. A special mention for the excellent ALL DAY Breakfast Bap (with apologies to the waiter who got caught out thinking it was only served at breakfast). The children's sausage roll was just a sausage roll served with ketchup simples! Decent toilets. A great place for 4 families in 4 cars to meet up on the way to their weekend holiday venue near Winchester. The fudge sold in the shop also received rave reviews (afterwards).
