Building on the success of their organic vegetable box scheme(currently 35,000 boxes delivered every week across southern England), Riverford Farm has now opened a Field Kitchen where you can eat some of the finest organic food in an airy, relaxed, refectory style restaurant. The chef is formerly from the Carved Angel in Dartmouth and shares the same commitment and enthusiasm for high quality, local ingredients prepared with flare and simplicity. Go to the Riverford website to see sample menus. The sheer abundance, variety and imagination that is brought to the food preparation makes this an fantastic eating experience. Staff are efficient and friendly but you need to be prepared for other diners struggling with the idea of sharing food with the people sitting beside them who are likely to be complete strangers. Its not the place for a romantic dinner for two. You have to book in advance.

Great food (organic, local), really well cooked, and served in a lovely light and airy building. A really good choice for a group meal (you may end up sharing a table with others, so maybe not somewhere for a romantic meal for two), and very reasonably priced given the quality of the ingredients.

The highlight for me in the sunday lunch was the beetroot gratin, which I think I could eat every day and not get tired of. My only grumble was being last up for dessert, meaning the chocolate brownie and pavlova were all gone. On the upside the sticky toffee pudding was amazing.

Highly recommended.
