Dogs are welcome outside in the courtyard. Assistance dogs only inside the Café.
Please note: The Farm Shop Café will be closed on Tuesday 21 and Wednesday 22 April. The Grain Store will be open as normal.
Our menus are shaped around local, seasonal produce, showcasing ingredients from Doddington’s Kitchen Garden and the wider estate.
We have our own herd of Lincoln Red cattle for all our beef dishes, plentiful game, honey and foraged wild garlic – along with fantastic year-round produce from our walled Kitchen Garden. Beyond the estate, we seek out the best local growers and producers from Lincolnshire and the surrounding counties.
No booking is required, tables are allocated on a first come, first served basis. Both indoor and outdoor seating is available, with dogs welcome in the outdoor seating area only.
“Growing up at Doddington, eating seasonal produce from the Kitchen Garden and farm was the only thing I knew. I learnt to cook using what was on hand here as the seasons passed and my love of cooking and good food stems from this. I strongly believe that the fresh, good quality ingredients are the foundation of delicious food.
Our menus showcase produce from our own Kitchen Garden, pasture-fed Lincoln Red beef (dry aged for at least 28 days) and game from the estate along with wonderful local produce such as bread, cheese, eggs, meat, vegetables and fruit.
Our chefs cook everything from scratch, so you might have to wait a few minutes for your food, but we hope you will think it is worth it!”
