Farm Shops & Cafés

If you’re planning on cooking up a feast of local food for yourself during your stay, you can buy quality local food and drink directly from the growers at local farmer’s markets in the towns. 

Pop into Occombe Farm Shop in Paignton, where the products are regionally sourced from the best the West Country has to offer. Jam-packed with local and regional produce, gifts and lifestyle items. You can buy milk from a dispenser, wholefoods by weight, meat reared on our doorstep, even sourdough baked on the edge of Dartmoor. Shopping at Occombe is Good Buying that Does Good! Proceeds raised through Occombe go towards Torbay Coast & Countryside Trust’s care of the many treasured green places and spaces in Torbay. Simply buying a loaf of locally baked bread, a slice of home-made cake or a bottle of locally produced wine helps support our important care of Torbay’s beautiful natural heritage; for wildlife and for people, for generations to come.

Make sure to pop into the Occombe Farm Cafe too! Surrounded by beautiful countryside and with stunning views across the English Riviera, the cafe is full of locally sourced produce and lots of delicious homemade, creative dishes.

Head to Churston Farm Shop on the road to Brixham where 55% of everything sold in this popular farm shop is sourced from within the local area and you’ll find their delicious own grass-fed 28-day lamb and 28-day hung Aberdeen Angus beef on sale. If you’re visiting the area and want an authentic Devon food experience delivered directly to your door, it’s worth bearing in mind that Churston Farm Shop can also make personalised hampers. 

The  Churston Farm Shop cafe offers a taste of the South Hams on a plate, using local produce to create innovative dishes. A family friendly cafe, with a covered play area outside, this cafe is a homely experience. Pop into the garden centre on your visit, and you can even get your car valeted whilst you’re there!
