About
Hill Farm Barn “Walk in Cafe” is a great dog-friendly rest stop whilst visiting Northchurch Commons or the wider Ashridge Estate. The cafe has a small indoor area but lots of outdoor tables with umbrellas, and a few under cover.
Dog Access and Rules
Dogs are allowed both inside and outside, but need to be kept on a lead.
The cafe has plenty of dog bowls available and sells dog treats.

What's On Offer
The Cafe offers food from British farms and local suppliers; tea, coffee, homemade cakes and bakes, toasties, and vegan, vegetarian, and gluten-free options available; treats for dogs; and a shop selling local honey and artisan gifts. The photo above has my Carrot Cake and Americano, which were great.
The cafe doesn’t take bookings, and opening times vary by season, so check their Facebook page for updates.
Access and Facilities
The cafe has no on-site car park, but the Northchurch Commons car parks are just across the road. Just be aware that the cafe has a number of steps you will need to navigate to place your order and then get back out to the garden.
