When was the last time you went to a farm? Like a real farm with chickens and a duck and some rabbits and a moo cow and massive massive pigs and a cat and a funky old rooster and a grumpy old turkey. Yeah I don't think I'd ever been to one until the other day when I went here - its sooo good.

You basically walk in through a gate and get transported back in time and completely out of London - there's a cobbled courtyard with loads of animals running around and some stables with pigs and rabbits and all sorts in there. Out the back there's a small field with some cows and pigs and maybe even some sheep!

They have a really cute restaurant inside that does nice breakfasts for hipsters (its possible the eggs come from the farm).

My only gripe is that you can't smoke when you have breakfast even if you sit outside - something about kids or how the rooster developed a nasty cough - anyway its awesome you should go there.
