Farm cafes in Lancashire

Farm cafes and tea rooms sit alongside a shop or farm park and tend to cook with produce from the holding. They are often the reason a farm shop trip turns into a morning out.

In Lancashire we hold 4 farm cafes, with the most in Chorley (2) and Burnley (1). Of the 4 carrying a numeric food hygiene rating, 4 hold the top score of 5. Every entry below links to a page showing where the information came from and when we last checked it.

How many farm cafes are there in Lancashire?

We list 4 farm cafes in Lancashire, spread across 3 districts. That count covers businesses on the Food Standards Agency food hygiene register that identify themselves as a farm cafe. Farms that sell only at markets, only through a box scheme, or only from an honesty box may not appear on that register at all, so treat this as a floor rather than a complete census.

Are these farm cafes open to the public right now?

We cannot promise that. This directory holds official registration and hygiene data, not opening hours. Farm businesses are strongly seasonal and many change their hours week to week. Always check the farm's own website or social media, or ring, before setting off.

What does the food hygiene rating on each listing mean?

It is the score the local council's food safety officer gave that business at its last inspection. It runs from 5 (very good) down to 0 (urgent improvement necessary). It reflects hygiene and record-keeping on the day of inspection. It says nothing about how good the produce is.
