Home Farm Café — Restaurant in Teignbridge

Hi folks, Food expert out and about in Bovey Tracy today. Just come across this hidden gem up in the park hills of Bovey Tracy. With the sun beaming down today and another glorious hot day, nothing better than a pit stop at this lovely cafe. About 20/30 mins walk through the park from the main high street. With a relaxing decor and smiles around, I was soon made to feel at home. I ordered a fresh crusty baguette with ham and cheese. Presented and made by two lovely young chefs, it was presented very well. Has to be the best baguette I have eaten for a long time. Garnished with home made coleslaw and salad, and not forgetting the crisps on the side also. Highly recommended this lovely hidden gem cafe in a beautiful setting and very friendly staff to look after you. Thank you for a lovely rest bite. From the Food Expert...

Difficult to find anything savoury on the menu that didn't have any spicy ingredients or sauce. Asked if I could have a pulled pork baguette without anything spicy but was told that the pork was in hoisin sauce. Ended up choosing 2 cheese scones but when they arrived I found that they contained more herb than cheese - why couldn't the menu say cheese and herb? Looking at the menu later I noticed something (presumably) without anything spicy added - children's half baguette with cheese or pulled ham. Wish I'd spotted that earlier. Won't be visiting again, the £3 (minimum) parking charge was a bad start - cheaper to go into Bovey, pay for an hour's parking and visit one of the town's cafés for some plain...

Went to this lovely looking cafe about a year ago and ordered the "cheese cream tea" for 2, assuming the price on the blackboard was correct was given less change than expected and was told that the different price on the menu was the correct price and not refunded by the somewhat surly girl who served us. Returned a year later and the same thing happened. The girl who served us this time (Sunday 31st July) was downright rude. This was only a few pence but surely I can't be the only one to have complained and instead of having disgruntled customers why not just get on it and get the prices right. Also 5 minutes tuition in being pleasant to customers...
