ABOUT US
WHO WE ARE
The Farmhouse is a rural cafe, bakery, gelateria, wedding and even venue located on 140 acre farm, 5 minutes from Clevedon Village and 35 minutes south of Auckland City.
Set in a beautiful old villa on a family property with bees, cattle, horses, chickens, buffalos and sheep. The intentions were to create a seasonal ice cream shop using the honey and fresh fruits we harvest on the property. Farm House Cafe straight away grew in popularity, and very quickly we were a cafe open all year round.
We try to grow as much of our own produce as we can and using small, local suppliers whenever possible. We can't always get everything we use locally, but choosing brands that align with us and the environment has been so incredibly important from the very beginning.
​
Farm House Cafe is a light-hearted dining experience created to delight, indulge and inspire your curiosity. So, immerse yourself in the atmosphere of the surroundings, it’s travelled a long way to be
here with you.
You’re welcome at our table now.
​
Taste has the capacity to provoke intense emotions and nostalgia, resulting in a palpable connection between matters of the table and matters of the heart.

OUR SUPPLIERS
We are lucky enough to work with a fantastic team of local suppliers who provide us with top quality products.

Their award-winning fresh buffalo mozzarella, bocconcini, ricotta, and more, are made with farm fresh milk from their herd of Riverine water buffalo which graze freely on lush open pasture in Clevedon.
