Bought my lunch there today. Was in town and couldn't resist. I had a pork pie which had mushy peas…read moreinside on top of the pork. Still warm and very delicious. Because I couldn't make my mind up and choose from the many delicacies on offer, I bought a second lunch a bread bun with a kofta lamb kebab inside topped with spicy tomato sauce. They do several types of stuffed bun like this and they're the only place I know to do this. Utterly delicious. Previously I have bought many steaks, countless pounds of sausages, bacon, chicken and pork. All of it has been excellent. Cockburns have recently started making pork and black pudding pies. Utterly delicious. If you like pies then you need to try one.

On and off I have visited this shop with friends and family and they have never been disappointed.These days I live remote from Bedale so it is not so easy but every time I (or anyone I can talk into going) is near we get the pies. I can't recommend highly enough.

If you are like me, trawling the A1/M1 north to south and south to north happens all too regularly…read more Moto makes me think a fairy dies every time you walk through those automated doors. Little Chef is, well, it's Little Chef, and I think we all know what that means, right, right? On my latest venture south of the border, I was travelling with the oldies, which means we travel at the speed of the parents. Which, on the bright spring day that was Thursday, was alright with me. What was not alright was the prospect of eating crappy overpriced food and drinking burnt coffee at any one of the service stations that blot the landscape. Enough, I thought, we are ambling the day away, therefore, why be forced into bad food land? Lets take a risk and pull off the motorway to find a cafe, or a pub to have lunch. And so we did after a couple of attempts and misses of exits (hair raising, indeed!) which brought us into the village of Leeming Bar. We would have pulled away back onto the motorway, but luckily we went left instead of right (that might have been down to me demanding to go to Northallerton... but never mind that) and came across Spring House Farm Shop. Inside is a gallery of homebaked treats - bread, cake, roulade... as well as the normal items shops sell i.e. chutneys etc. At the back was a small cafe, where we tucked into cheese and onion chutney (caramelised... so. damn. good.) sandwiches (home baked bread rolls) and soup. My eye fell on... well, I can't tell you, as it's my sister's birthday present and a fellow member on yelp, but it was really rather smart, I promise you. I, as the lardass member of the family, also grabbed a slice of coffee and walnut cake. Although the walnuts were not spread through the sponge, it was one of the lightest sponges I have had in a long time. Glad I tried! By the end I had spent forty quid on my sandwich - one birthday present down, some tomato and smoked garlic ketchup, onion marmalade as well as some mango chutney and some other bits and bobs. My other sister bought breakfast (some amazing giant field mushrooms) from the small but delicious fresh vegetable section and we were good to go. This is definitely up there on my list of farmers markets and a welcome change on what is one helluva laborious drive.

They marinade all kinds of meat for different meals and they all look incredible. I always tell people about it here because the staff are so friendly and helpful! The first time I went I was spoilt for choice and couldn't quite decide and a really friendly guy helped me out and asked what the occasion was, what kinds of things I like and told me to get the lemon and garlic chicken it was divine! I also have tried the salt and pepper ribs and minted lamb shank all absolutely incredible. The reason I chose today to write a review is the pork pies are meant to be incredible so I ordered my dad a large pork pie saying no1 dad on it, fab gift and not pricey! Definitely worth a try!
