A good part of our recent trip to England was spent exploring great food shops and cafes.  One of our favorite finds was Fodder located in Harrogate, Yorkshire.  Although we are not supposed to share this with you…we will because really we thought it was such an amazing stop and truly hope that you will stop by too if you are ever in Harrogate, England.

Started with the simple idea of helping local farmers and producers to sell their goods, Fodder has evolved into a one stop shop where you can buy everything you need for the perfect meal.

Supplied mostly by Yorkshire farmers and producers, there is not actually a farm on site but you will find gorgeous products from over 300 nearby farms.  The cafe was having a “slow” day…which meant the que was nearly half way to the door and about a fifteen minute wait.  We opted to wait since it all looked so amazing.  Once in, the open plan cafe did not disappoint.  The food was incredible.  We only wish we had had bigger appetites! We left with a quick stop to the butcher where we picked up some delicious local lamb for dinner.

We do hope that if you are ever in Yorkshire you will make the trip.  It was part of what made our holiday memorable.
