I’ve been lucky enough to go to Castle Farm for Sunday roast & now for their Friday night curry night. On both occasions, with family.
The location - this is a working farm who welcome a wide range of parties to this converted barn/outbuilding. For instance, on this visit there seemed to be a callectic mix of different groups- family, also those with (well behaved) dogs. This different make up of customer, I feel added to the buzzing happy atmosphere.
We were in the 1st of 3 sittings offered. The staff all excellent - very efficient, friendly, most accommodating & would explain if unsure about any dish on the menu.
Out of our party of 4 - we each picked a different main course & shared - every dish had a unique fresh taste, with either succulent meat and/or flavoursome vegetable chunks. Along with some side dishes- rice - cooked just right, with each grain separated.
Even had a lolly for desert to refresh the pallet. Which was delicious.
Would highly recommend a visit if possible. We will be going back on our next visit to family in the region. We haven’t had a better curry out (despite tasting...
Read moreA Sunday Roast Like No Other – Simply Perfect!
My husband and I had the absolute pleasure of experiencing the Sunday roast at Castle Farm Midford, and I can confidently say it was the best roast we’ve ever had!
The setting itself is incredibly charming – a beautiful barn with a cozy, rustic feel that immediately makes you feel at home. The atmosphere is warm and inviting, with a relaxed countryside vibe that adds to the magic of the experience.
Now, the food – simply mind-blowing! Every element of the roast was cooked to perfection: tender, flavorful meat, crispy-yet-fluffy roast potatoes, vibrant seasonal vegetables, and the richest, most delicious gravy tying it all together. You can tell that everything is made with the highest quality ingredients and a lot of love.
The service was equally wonderful – friendly, welcoming, and attentive without being intrusive. It truly felt like a special dining experience, one that we won’t forget anytime soon.
If you're looking for a Sunday roast that sets the standard, in a stunning countryside setting, this is the place to be. We will most...
Read moreWhat a hidden gem! Friday night Curry in August was simply glorious. We went for the selection to try every dish including starters. Starters of Pork spring rolls, courgette fritters with chutneys & poppadoms were scrummy, especially the sweet n spicy soy base with black beans & cucumber cubes. Fresh Coconut sambal was rich & moreish. Mains were 8 dishes plus rice, chapati & roti, all clearly defined & freshly made. My wife has an aubergine allergy, and they simply didn't add it! Superb range of flavours & spice levels, 2 dishes were described as 'very spicy' but worked well & had amazing flavours. All sauces were rich & flavourful, ingredients fresh & tasty. The Hake & Lamb dishes were our particular favourites, and we both adored the Cornish Gurnard sitting in a thick tomato sauce.
Was our first visit and certainly not our last, we can't wait to try their theme nights :)
We felt the meal & drinks were great value too, with plenty of food, lovely local drinks, happy & knowledgeable servers, in a comfortable quirky environment.
A superb night out with a great buzzy atmosphere. Highly...
