The Orr family from Meadow Farm first opened a farm shop 20 years ago on the main Belfast to Downpatrick Road. It sold the farm’s produce directly to customers and as business grew, Richard Orr’s wife started selling home-cooked food, sweet treats and baked goods.

In 2012, the business opened its own purpose built farm shop which opened two days a week. Now, thanks to a £200,000 investment in a refurbished shop and tea rooms, it is open for 5 days a week. The tea rooms seat 30 with additional outdoor seating.

Food-wise, think rustic and wholesome. Daily specials might include traditional Turkey and Ham, Corned Beef Sandwiches, Pan-fried Sea Bass, Soups made from scratch and yummy scones.

Why not book their Rustic Afternoon Tea for a special treat?

In addition to their own farm produce, they also sell products from other artisan producers such as Broighter Gold, Glastry Farm Ice Cream and Broom Cottage.
