Very tasty food but not enough service staff on. Waiters were very busy and it meant quite a slow service. Portion sizes seemed a bit inconsistent too. Produce in the shop is of a high quality but this is reflected in the prices.

Gorgeous wee cafe and farm products, artisan foods and beautiful gifts for sale. One of my favourite places for food and a wee stroll around the lovely shop. A tucked away secret Fenton Barns Farm Shop between Drem and North Berwick is a wee oasis, plenty parking right outside, the shop is spotlessly clean and beautifully laid out, wonderful range of gifts, cards, artisan foods and local farm produce. Not the cheapest but for a special treat or recipe it's very well stocked. But what makes the visit is the excellent cafe, the food is innovative, bursting with flavour and unbelievably fresh, daily

I walked in and was impressed at the range and quality of goods in the store. I was with my mother who needed to use the facilities. I mentioned this to the manager who told us the cafe was closed and this also meant the toilet facilities. I explained that my 90 year old grandmother, just needed to pop to the loos quickly whilst I started looking… around. That simple request was far too much for the manager on duty who refused. If they can’t help those with me I see no reason why I should spend my money in a place which is so unwelcoming. Glad to have left empty handed. Willing to

Clean, tidy, and well lit. Pleasant atmosphere, and the staff were friendly, cheery, and helpful. The farm shop is delightful, and the café is wonderful. Visited with my fiancé and my mother-in-law, and we all very much enjoyed our lunch. Would definitely recommend.
