On the square since 1987
Rare-breed meat and a proper cheese room
Rare-breed meat from farms we can name, cheeses that never saw a supermarket, and a deli counter that decides half of Ludlow's dinners. Hampers travel; the welcome doesn't.

How we buy
Named farms or nothing
🐄
Longhorn beef
From the Bury Farm herd, nine miles away — hung a full 28 days in our own ageing room.
🧀
The cheese wall
Forty-odd British and French cheeses, cut from the wheel, tasted before they're sold.
🥖
The deli counter
Pies, terrines and salads made in the back kitchen each morning. Recipes older than the staff.
