Classic Country Cooking

We use fresh, local, free-range ingredients and all of the food is prepared by us. We buy what is best on the day, and fruit and vegetables are from the garden when in season. We are pleased to provide vegetarian, special diet or wheat-free dishes. If you have a particular favourite, just tell us!

Our 3-course dinner is £30.00 per person with cocktail and coffee.  You need to pre-book. We generally serve dinner on Friday and Saturday nights; other nights for parties of 4 or more only.

Our Award Winning Breakfasts

We take our breakfasts very seriously here at Pear Tree Farm - in fact we consistently win awards. Start off with a bowl of cereal or fabulous organic pinhead-oatmeal porridge, local single-variety apple juice, organic yoghurt and seasonal fruit compotes from the garden and hedgerows. Next comes a full English breakfast with locally-sourced free-range sausage, bacon and eggs. We also offer poached smoked haddock, kedgeree and even devilled kidneys to special order (the day before, please!)

Dining in Pear Tree Farm style

Dinner at Pear Tree Farm is an elaborate three-course affair. Join us for a pre-dinner cocktail before settling down in our dramatic dining room to sample the fabulous flavours of Herefordshire.

All the ingredients we serve are sourced fresh on the day from local producers and our own garden.

Below are two sample menus but, of course, we are happy to discuss your particular wishes.
