Breakfast & Coffee

Upstairs from the butchery, The Barn Kitchen is where our meat gets cooked rather than wrapped. Proper cooked breakfasts, eggs done how you like them, sourdough from local bakers and coffee worth sitting down for. Served Thursday, Friday, Saturday and Sunday from 9am until 1pm, with the Suffolk countryside out of every window, free parking at the door and a warm welcome for dogs.

Breakfast Straight From the Counter Downstairs

There is no supply chain here worth speaking of. The bacon in your sandwich and the sausages on your plate were cut and made by our butchers one floor below, using locally reared, high welfare Suffolk meat. That means The Full Barn Breakfast at £14 is exactly what a farm shop breakfast should be: sausage, bacon, egg, mushroom, beans, vine tomatoes and thick sourdough toast, traceable to within a few miles of the table you are sitting at.

Coffee, Cake and a Proper Sit Down

Barista coffee, loose leaf tea by the pot and a counter of freshly made cakes, scones and pastries: chocolate brownies, warm cheese scones, coffee and walnut cake, and whatever else has come out of the oven that morning. No booking needed. Come up the stairs, take a table by the window and stay as long as you like.
