Smallford Farm Shop and Cafe in St Albans

We went there hoping to find organic veggies, fruits and organic chicken but unfortunately there were just a few organic veggies. Apart from that it was alright but did not meet my expectations

Well stocked and professionally run. Plenty of space between tables and outside seating. Had a delicious brunch.

Popped in on the way home, picked up a variety of fresh meats.Great staff and the butcher was really helpful.Will be back again, to try the cafe out.

A hidden local gem. The café serves delicious, inventive and seasonal food. We had a roasted cauliflower salad with cashew cream, a superfood salad and chips. Yum! Desserts were equally good, with the gluten free choc and almond cake with salted caramel being rich in flavour and not oversweet. There’s a lot of care put in to the food. Service came with a smile.

I love exploring farm shops and seeing all the cute little knickknacks they have to offer. They sell fresh fruit and veg and they have all these beautiful flowers displayed as you walk in. So lovely and vibrant. Customer service was good and the cashier helped us with our inquiries. Definitely will be coming here again maybe to see what the cafe has to offer!👏🏽

Disappointing place, the few vegetables looked sad and slightly old, meat looked okay but there are better butchers around. The rest is just overpriced products from England or Italy for which I do not understand why people are so obsessed with. It'd be nice to see very good quality products from the UK but also from Spain, Portugal, France, Greece, Morocco, Tunisia, Japan, Korea and such.There is also a cafe which I have not tried as it looked expensive and quite boring.

I cannot recommend this place enough!! DELICIOUS Italian food, truly reminded me of my childhood in South Italy. Great coffee. Lovely deli full of premium products at reasonable prices. Amazing locally grown veg. And now a butcher too! I'd give it 6 stars if I could.

This place is so posh that even the shoplifters probably have an Oxbridge education.Great food, lovely staff, disturbingly comprehensive array of cheeses.

A must for all foodies! Friendly staff who know about the vast range of local products they sell. The wine recommendation from Virginia was spot on. Go visit this little gem and have lunch while youre there.

I have only been to the farm shop before but today my friend and I had lunch at the Little Italian Restaurant there. I was looking for somewhere with good food that would have easy access as my friend has difficulty walking and has very poor sight (she is registered blind). I tell you that because many times when I take her out it is apparent that staff find her an inconvenience due to her 'walker' and tight spaces. This place having been purpose built, with lots of space and easy access, made things as easy as it could ever be so no problem there. The staff at the Little Italian could not have been more friendly and accommodating. It was so refreshing!The menu is not pages long but there is lots of choice for either vegetarians, vegans or meat eaters. The food itself was excellent - it was both flavoursome and a nice portion, beautifully presented. (I had the Caesar Salad and my friend had the Ravioli Alla Norma). We both had a Latte to drink and commented it was particularly good.We could not have been more pleased with our visit and will most definitely go again. It is a place where I will be recommending to all my friends and will be back.
