The Slindon Forge Café
Your Village Retreat
Step into The Slindon Forge Café and experience the warmth of our community spirit, the charm of our historic setting, and the delicious flavours of our home-cooked food. Whether you’re joining us for a leisurely breakfast, a light lunch, or a tempting treat, you’ll find a welcoming atmosphere and a menu filled with local goodness.
Fresh, Local, & Delicious:
We believe in supporting our local producers and sourcing the finest ingredients. Our free-range eggs come from Hallgate Farm near Petworth, our bread and baps are delivered fresh from Jengers of Billingshurst, and our counter groans with delicious cakes, many baked by talented local bakers like Tom. You can even find many of our ingredients and treats available for purchase in our village shop.
A Menu to Suit Every Taste:
- Hearty Breakfasts: Start your day with a satisfying breakfast, cooked to order and sure to set you up for whatever adventures await.
- Light Lunches: Our lunchtime menu features a tempting array of freshly prepared dishes, from sandwiches and salads to soups and quiches.
- Sweet Treats: Indulge in a slice of cake, a scone with jam and cream, or a scoop of ice cream.
- Drinks for All: We’re fully licensed, offering a selection of fine wines and beers alongside expertly brewed coffee, tea, and hot chocolate.
Relax & Enjoy:
Enjoy your meal in our bright and comfortable café, or when the weather is fine, make the most of our outdoor seating area. Our spacious picnic benches, crafted by the local Charlton Sawmill, provide the perfect spot to soak up the sunshine and enjoy the village atmosphere.
Convenient & Welcoming:
- Takeaway Service: Many of our café menu items are available for takeaway, perfect for those on the go.
- Dog-Friendly: We welcome your four-legged friends with water bowls and even doggie ice cream and treats.
