The Abbot’s Table Café

Open Wed - Sun, 10am to 4pm

The Abbot’s Table Café, opened in March 2025, is located within the historic grounds of Forde Abbey and Gardens. The café offers a thoughtfully curated, seasonally inspired menu, showcasing high-quality, locally sourced ingredients including fresh produce grown on the Estate and within the Abbey’s own gardens.

Guests are welcome to visit The Abbot’s Table without the need to purchase admission to the House and Gardens, and reservations are not required. We invite you to enjoy a selection of freshly prepared dishes in a relaxed and picturesque setting.
