Pillars of Hercules Organic Farm Review

A lovely cafe with good food made on the premises, particularly the great crepes and baking. A good sized store with a large range of groceries and their own fresh fruit and vegetables. Cards by local artists. Small selection of good quality books. Lovely staff. A gem of a place!

Good variety of healthy, organic food. Great place to visit. Staff very welcoming and friendly

Perfect place for lunch or treat before or after a walk. Dog walkers love it - you can sit outside even if your dog has been rolling in mud! Splendid range of most things organic, including great veg and fruit. Very popular.

First vist to Pillars and was impressed with the amount of fresh produce on offer as soon as you walk in. Popped in the cafe for a coffee and cake. Loved the orange spice cake. Would recommend to anyone passing

Great place to visit for a coffee food looks good and all salad etc grown onsite

Lovely shop and cafe. The coffee cake is fantastic. Sheltered outdoor seating which is dog friendly. It s also a good camping spot but they no longer allow dogs to stay so we stopped camping here but still visit regularly for the coffee, cakes and veg produce.

Great wee coffee shop and organic produce in the shop

Fantastic vegan/eco-/environment/dog friendly coffee, farm shop and rest stop - perfect for all ages, especially walkers and visiting families. Nestled on the edge of the Falkland Estate, lush, green and sustainable. Homemade edibles, fantastic coffee and a shop which sells earth-friendly produce. Poly tunnels and gardens for local produce to be grown and sold on site.

Staff are friendly, and work hard - it's been busy on the two occasions I've visited (Saturday, 3pm or later). Car parking nearby, and a campsite across the road - wash facilities are provided in the toilet block on the coffee shop site. Fantastic atmosphere, highly recommend the cakes!

Fantastic takeaway vegan/vegetarian food and setup with tent and wood burner. Friendly staff. Only gripe is cost of some items in shop when comparing like for like in Asda's for instance. But that's to be expected

Favourite cafe. Nice food, nice walks, dog friendly and nice staff

We love Pillars - fantastic cafe and great camping.

As for ORGANIC you will not easily find a better and larger variety. Shop has a friendly and warm atmosphere. Perfect place to relax with a coffee and scone or something more

Simply one of the finest campsites going. Camping amongst in the orchard amongst the trees is lovely, and the environmentally aware facilities and cafe are amazing. It has the feel of somewhere that's been there for ever and is just part of the environment.

What a brilliant place. Been meaning to go for ages and tota ly worth the trek from Glasgow. Pillars of Hercules is the future. The future for everyone's good.

All you need organic/veggie/vegan/gluten-free. Love it. We came for the cafe/shop, we'll be back for the camping.

Parking always crowded...dogs, children...great walks close by, which is why this small 'covers' restaurant is full...there is a covered outside area for eating perfect for those with dogs...
They serve breakfast till 11ish then it's homemade soups.light snacks, scones, variety of cakes.Has it's own polytunnel so nice fresh ingredients.
Loos & outside space uitable for wheelchairs.
Little farm shop with nice selection of green groceries & wholemeal items.

Great little place just at the beautiful village of Falkland. Very earthy recipes and painstakingly sourced produce which is why I was so disappointed to see medjool Israeli dates in their fruit and veg section though.

I was brought here on a cold rainy winter's day when I was feeling very down and had been suffering with stomach problems and as soon as I walked in felt the beautiful serene energy. The food then came and it was beautiful and fresh and the service impeccable. There were edible flowers on my dish and as I ate my meal I could feel myself being revived! I had a wonderful restorative afternoon. Highly recommend

Wonderful place, stunning location. Camping too. Most staff friendly and engaging though it can get busy. Food good though rather pricey for smallish portions! Rather poor coffee. Shop excellent. Great for gluten free and disabled access.

Bit expensive nice place for walking good facilities

Great facilities and camp site with very rensiable rates

Nice product selection. Reasonable prices. Food was delicious. Loved garlic mashrooms on toast.

Great place to go especially with the current COVID-19 measures in place. Outdoor seating both covered and uncovered feels safe and dog friendly so great stop with your dog after a walk. Parking here has also been quadrupled by the addition of a new car park for walkers etc which makes life much easier. Great selection of vegetarian and vegan food and drinks as well as a nice farm shop.

Beautiful organic shop and cafe . Eating outdoors is an option.

Lovely, busy little place. We unfortunately didn't stay long enough to eat as we are meat eaters but it was a cozy, happy environment and the shop attached had lots to choose from. We would stop again.

Best cappuccino outside Italy. Unusual favours of cakes and gluten free a speciality, but all delicious

Lots of parking. Great food. Friendly staff. Good service and prices.

A quick stop here the cafe hasa good range of food. The shop is very well stocked with organic produce. Play area for young children.

Delicious food, great goods to buy and lovely setting. Prefect.

Terrible service. So bad, after waiting to even be acknowledged by waiting staff we left. So no comment on food etc.

Shop fantastic and filled with good environmentally friendly products and even offers refills on some brands.

Tasty meat free food. Bit pricey but nice coffee! Great walks round the estate.

Excellent produce + decent selection of organic goods. We also enjoyed food and coffee.

lovely food and atmosphere but some staff slow and inefficient. Menu very limited for Gluten free, could easily add GF bread or wheat free spelt bread for toasties and sandwiches. Surprised the cheese is ordinary cows could easily be ewes or goats grated cheese for salads and salads had no dressings like balsamic vinegar or French dressing.

Vegan paradise - lovely organic foods without he normal monster price hike. Beautiful grounds and friendly staff - will be back for sure.

It's beautiful, it's organic, very pet friendly and the staff is helpful and sweet

Cafe was crowded (with people and wasps!) but it is summer holidays, and the staff were friendly despite being under pressure. Simple vegetarian menu, and excellent quality fresh produce in the store.

If you like healthy vegetarian food you will love it here. Organic produce and great shop. Can sit outside if you have a dog. Rustic and tasty.

Have a good range of organic items in the shop. I got a bamboo toothbrush here. Noticed they had big containers of shampoo, conditioner and such like, so you could refill your old bottle, fantastic for the planet. The woman who served me had a miserable look about her and did not show any signs of being interested in conversing with customers.

Great place, many different types of goods for sale, cafe is OK can bring dogs and sit outside.

Every kind of friendly : kids, dogs, bees... Lovely, organic, fresh vegetarian food dishes, nice coffe. Wonderful area with good distance walks. It was sunny day and very busy for tge cafe as well. They even sell plants different sorts.

Great organic meals and snacks in sustainable environment. Accredited Soil Association organic food store.

Nice, out of the way cafe with a selection of organic treats . Handy stop when cycling or hiking in this area.

Great place to visit. Walks activities and great food.

If you like vegetarian food this is the place for you.

Great friendly site. Perfect for cycle touring, showers and toilets were great.

Phenomenal love it here, I am not vegan, my wife is food is incredible. 5 stars every time.

Where saving the planet costs the earth.
22.40 for soup, Sandwich and a drink.

Wonderful organic farm shop and cafe, loads of nice walks nearby, can't recommend it enough.

Been to Falkland a few times & never knew this place existed.(Not local) Discovered only by taking woodland walk through the estate. Great place to sit have a coffee and light lunch from the cafe (takeaway)in the strawberry field opposite. Play park for the little ones. Lovely spot for camping, with toilets and showering facilities. Surrounded by beautiful gardens. Garden centre (Poly tunnels) with some plants for sale, bought an Evening Primrose plant which is now in bloom. Wee gem of a place.

Quaint cafe and farm shop selling organic foods, really friendly staff, particularly busy around lunch time and on the weekends, lots of woodland walks around the area to build up your appetite.

Cosy, great smell, excellent coffee. One of my favourite places to go for a relaxed bite to eat.

Always great food. And such a hipster vipe. The garlic mushrooms are ace.

Excellent food in the cafe and brilliant range of goods in the shop. Plenty of outside seating for when the weather is nice. Shame they don't open in the evenings.

Have a lovely time here after a brisk walk around east lomond. The cheese in the toastie was lovely, and the soup was beautiful and fresh. Hot chocolate wasn't amazing, but the produce choice of flowers made up for it. Overall, lovely little family run business!

Great cafe and a really good shop with a huge range of organic, vegan, free-from products as well as fresh vegetables. They have almost everything you could ever want! Also, an amazing place for a walk through the woods! See if you can find the waterfall that goes over the path!

Great area for walking and taking in the fresh air, lovely friendly service and good food.

Lovechild place especially on a day like today. Glorious
