It's a lovely place to go and shop - the quality and ambience is fab! (My son loves to play on the Fort while I pop in to get some goodies........ and it's always hard to resist the lovely grub that's available in the coffee shop)!
The meat is outstanding........ the speciality breads will have you salivating......... as will the fruit, veg, charcuterie, pies, cakes..........

Harwarden Estate Farm Shop is a new business just launched by the great great grandson of Prime Minister William Ewart Gladstone. Charles Gladstone, has opened the shop on the site of Hawarden Castle Fruit Farm. The ethos of the shop is to promote healthy eating and real food.

As well as supplying fruit and vegetables grown on the farm they have a ‘proper’ butchers counter, freshly baked bread, and an array of local delicacies including cheeses, smoked meats and much more. They also stock a wide range of foodie delights and natural products. In the middle of the shop is a small café with plans for seating on an outdoor terrace once the weather warms up.

I was a customer of the fruit farm shop when it was just a small shed supplying fruit and veg and I am delighted to see the business expand. I have already used the shop a few times since its recent launch and have been really impressed, every time I go in I feel hungry! There is a really nice atmosphere about the place and the range of products available is very good. I can’t wait to sit on that terrace sipping coffee when the sun finally makes an appearance.
