Great cafe! We went for a bite before the hobbiton tour and it was a filling and inexpensive lunch before we went on it. I ordered the pork belly sandwich and it was quite good. They have beepers to get the food. There are premade cold sandwich or you can get a hot toasty. It can get crowded due to the amount of people at hobbiton. They also have a water station.

Food was good enough, couldn't toast my salami and cheese sandwich, latte was basic but woke me up, food was good enough but don't expect resturant quality

I had a breakfast wrap that was made with lamb sausage like a pastry wrapped burrito. It was really good. The coffee was nice and strong.

If you manage to grab a good spot on the porch, you get nice view overlooking outcoming and incoming hobbit buses.Good chickenwrap and pastriesLots of birds flying and chirping around begging for crumbs.Could use more lotr decorations for a bigger vibe.

The Shire's Rest Café is where all the Hobbiton adventures begin. The food and drinks here are reasonably priced despite being such a popular attraction. We ordered a tasty flat white coffee served in a special paper cup, and it was served quickly. The staff is friendly and always reminds guests to check in downstairs before their trip starts. It's these little details that make the experience even better. Whether you're a huge fan or just curious about Hobbiton, the Shire's Rest Café is a great place to grab a bite and get ready for your amazing journey.
