County Cafe, Aston Pottery in South Norfolk

The deep-pan quiche Aston Pottery does is mega! Even the side salad is great. Really filling meals and great cake selection! Only soured by the ducks and turkeys kept in small cages in the barn units behind!

I love the hand painted pottery at the store. It is extremely high quality and it has maintained this over the years even though the shop has expanded in size. It’s still a pleasure to come here and you can find wonderful gifts which are unique rather than mass produced.

What a lovely place! As a maker I can appreciate the time that goes into some of the products that are sold here, therefore understand the pricing of great quality goods.If by the time you are half way round you are hungry then a stop in the cafe for lunch is a must, with large portions of lovely food all made on site you will be revived for round two of shopping for beautiful gifts.

The cafe had lovely food, great coffee, slightly pricey but worth it for the quality and portion sizes.

Friends took me here, and we had a lovely lunch, and took the pottery tour. I bought SEVERAL smallish pieces that I knew I could pack. This is a very special place, and the gardens are a joy! I recommend this for all visitors.

Such a lovely shop with beautiful hand painted designs! We went at Christmas time and the decorations are beautiful and very fairly priced!

This is a magical garden, and completely free to cafe visitors. So much work goes in to creating it. The cafe is lovely.

Really nice food all freshly made. Shop is large if you like pottery. The flowery garden is also a site to behold.

Lovely food as ever, I can recommend the cheese scones. Great selection of gifts in the shop, even a bargain or two. Outside, the borders are looking beautiful as always.

Overall this is a unique and different shopping experience. Christmas is particularly good. However the cafe is a bit hit and miss, with the offerings for lunch. Recent visit, the lunch was semi hot, served on cold plates. Although cooked and kept in warming rack, hot would be better. On previous occasions, the food and cakes have been better. Service with a smile would go a long way as well...Update: ( 30th July 21)Still good place to browse and find unique gifts, especially attractive planting outside, despite the rain
