Farmer Gow's Cafe serves homemade pies, pasties, quiches and other hot food and drinks, and there is a farm shop on site. The attraction runs a seasonal timetable - in autumn it typically opens Thursdays to Sundays from 10am to 5pm, with special daily openings around the Christmas and New Year holidays - so opening days and times vary through the year and it is best to check the website before travelling.
