Essington Fruit Farm
Family-run farm with pick-your-own strawberries and pumpkins, plus farm shop, butchery and restaurant.
Pick your own strawberries from polytunnels in summer or pumpkins in autumn, then eat them at the on-site restaurant.
Essington Fruit Farm has been run by the Simkin family since 1892, now offering a full farm experience. Pick your own fresh strawberries from polytunnels (available late May to September) or pumpkins in October. The farm shop stocks the family’s own fruit and vegetables, often picked within the hour. The on-site butchery specialises in free-range pork and pedigree Hereford beef, whilst the restaurant serves homemade meals using fresh farm produce. Free parking is available, and families can enjoy seeing the livestock on site. Educational school groups and large parties are welcome by prior arrangement.

The place could do with more signage to show where the strawberry picking area is. You also need to book entry tickets online (£2.50 per person) and then pay £9.95 per kg for the strawberries. We filled two punnets for around £20. The strawberries were deliciously sweet, and the milkshake had a great balance of sweetness too.

Great choice of food and drinks, both in the store and in the restaurant. The accessibility is pretty good as long as its quiet. A wheelchair may struggle when its busy on the weekend to get between some shelves as its got small stands not aisles. They have absolutely delicious ice cream in the whip machine and the oakley milk wagon was outside serving fresh milk and milkshakes! Available to buy in a cup to drink now, or a refillable glass bottle you can purchase. You can also bring any container you wish from home to refill with 500ml or 1litre of fresh milk or milkshake. A particular favourite was the delicious strawberries and the freshly squeezed orange juice! A winner for us! A selection of favourites from previous cooked ready to eat hot foods, to items from the butchers and bakers to take home to cook and eat there is something for everyone to be found here.

First visit to restaurant & farm shop. Sunday roast a little on the pricey side but good quality, especially the vegetables and service was really lovely. On the other hand, farm shop goods were very reasonable. Let's hope the Essington Award Winning sausage lives up to rep 😋

The farm was open for picking strawberries and a few varieties of plums. The shop is great for buying fresh produce, and the fresh milkshakes were excellent. It was a nice experience; however, the place could be improved further to attract more visitors.
