Craigie's Farm Deli and Cafe

Criagie Farm on the outskirts of Edinburgh is a wonderful place to come and over the years has expanded into a lovely cafe over looking the fields, Edinburgh and the Firth of Forth. The fruit, vegetables, meat and cheese and all the other produce is all of the highest standard. It is a joy to come visit.

YUM YUM YUM....what else need i say? terrific venue, views and vegetables! well done to everyone involved.

This is what local produce is all about. The quality of their product is second to none. I love their dining area and the friendly staff make it a pleasure every time you visit. Sit back relax and enjoy the beautiful food and views.

I have been picking soft fruit there since my children were tots, they are now in their early 30's and I will be taking my Granddaughter soon to do the same! It has a lovely new shop with such a warm friendly atmosphereand a lovely cafe, the family are so warm and welcoming.

I have been buying fruit and vegetables here for over 20 years and I am still going back. Top quality fruit and vegetables, jams preserves and now their supberb deli with organic meat, chees etc. Cafe is brillant too and alovely family always make you feel as if you have known them for years.

Been a few times with the kids each year. They now ask when they're going to get berries for making jam!! Just a great day out! good clean, healthy fun

Great place to visit with our kids, lovely farm with excellent views very close to Edinburgh. Will be going many times this season I'm sure #:)

I have been going to Craigies before my kids were born for picking fruit. They people there have always been friendly and helpful but now with the cafe and larger shop you can take longer to enjoy the food (fabulous!) and the views (gorgeous). They are also open to suggestions - I suggested a veggie option for breakfast - and they have added that to their menu also. Brilliant! Myra A, Livingston

Great views, food and staff. what more could you ask for. Worth the short drive from Edinburgh.

Craigies is a gem of a place! Wonderfully sourced home produce served by such helpful and friendly staff, always on hand to give advice. Just pop in for a coffee (and cake), or try their home-made soups which will definitely set you up for the day! There's such a lovely happy feeling to the place and the views across the Firth of Forth on a clear day are stunning! And the chooks are doing so well with their eggs - I've had some amazing double-yokers - thank you hens! Pop into Craigies for the feel-good factor - its a lovely experience! You won't regret it!

A trip out here to pick the soft fruit is always well worth it, the fruit is suoerb and the setting is fabulous.

Craigie's Farm & Deli is a great example of modern farming entrepreneurship - innovative and fun. They have opened up their farm to the public not just to do business but to share their love of farming and the countryside. John provides a regular e-newsletter keeping up up to date with the farming calendar, invites us to enjoy walks on his farmland to appreciate the local nature and great views of the Firth of Forth, Edinburgh and the Pentlands and also hosts visits by local primary schools so they can learn about food production eg by learning about new breeds of chicken from the farm workers and cooking in the cafe kitchen using the eggs. Fantastic - this is what every farm could be doing. My mother visited Craigie's on their Open Day recently and was fascinated to learn about the modern strawberry growing methods employed at Craigie by an extremely knowledable 'berry manager' who was clearly passionate about his job. Craigie is an exemplary farming business - they deserve to win.

The view is worth the nice walk out from home, and coffee and produce are great have used for a number of years.

I have been going out to the farm to pick fruit for a long time the cafe and shop make it a day out

We used to vist the old shop regularly and since the new building and cafe opened we have been frequent visitors and love a trip to Craigie. Excellent, fresh local produce - ever changing items in store and a great menu. An ideal place for breakfast, coffee and a cake or even a big lunch out on the deck, we always sit out there as it is sheltered and we can enjoy the views whislt younger members of the family go wild on the mini tractors whatever the weather. Vote Craigie!

Wonderful outlet for home grown fruit and vegetables. home cooking and baking is superb and the warm friendly atmosphere created by the owners and staff brings you back many times. A little treasure just outside the city

Everything about Criaiges is fabulous - plenty parking, fantastic views, bright and airy interior, friendly and ultr-efficient staff ... and the produce is sublime! Lots of home cooking, salads, baking and yummy breakfasts. I have become a real convert to canadian pancakes, bacon and maple syrup! There is a safe play area with mini-tractors for the wee ones to play on, a nature trail for kids of all ages and the pick your own season is just about to start. come here for a slice of the good life!

We've been visiting Craigies for years - always a warm and friendly welcome and excellent produce. They deserve to do well with the enormous amount of hard work that they put into the farm, the shop & the cafe.

The children at St Margaret's Primary School in South Queensferry have enjoyed educational and fun trips up to West Craigie Farm. John and his staff are very supportive of the local community.

The breakfasts are fantastic! Try the Tattie howker Veggie one or the Canadian connection pancakes.. My little girl also loves collecting her own eggs from the chickens! Staff are really friendly and work really hard to keep everything going particulary when it is really busy!

excellent home cooked fresh food especialy home baking, soups, quiches and frittas. Shop packed full of seasonal and local goodies. Impressive range of cheeses, smoked fish, organic beef and lamb products. Out standing views down the river Forth, childrens play area and natue trail. Pick you own fruit when in season.

This farm shop sells everything from their land and creates wonderful produce, e.g. parsnip crisps, and potato crisps. In the summer it welcomes local people to collect strawberries and raspberries. Through the winter especially towards Christmas it sells a much better selection of fresher vegetables than in the supermarkets. I find it is a great place to shop for fresher foods and it is better quality for the amount you spend. I vote for them.
