Tap Into The Island’s Biggest Secret…

Farm House is one of Barbados most kept secret filled tantalizing flavors that will make your tongue and body dance.

Here is Why Every Traveler to Barbados Should Make a Beeline to The Farm House Café

Tucked away in the lush hills of St. Joseph on PEG Farm & Nature Reserve, The Farm House Café isn’t just another spot to grab a bite—it’s a full-on experience. For travelers looking to taste the real Barbados, this is where flavor, sustainability, and scenery come together in the most unforgettable way.

One of the things that truly sets The Farm House Café apart is the passion and vision of its owners, Rebecca Waldron and Nathan Crichlow. I had the pleasure of meeting this dynamic duo, and it’s clear that their love for food and community is what fuels the magic here. I am thrilled to say it has been a pleasure to form a friendship with Rebecca and her passion for family and business radiates.

With nearly 30 years of combined experience, Rebecca and Nathan have created something special in the heart of PEG Farm. Rebecca, who runs the kitchen as head chef, is all about showcasing the best of what Barbados has to offer. You can taste it in every bite—the tender pulled pork pancakes or the crispy, golden plantain waffles. Her approach is rooted in freshness and creativity, always leaning into what’s in season and what the land provides.

Nathan brings his culinary flair to the table, and together, they’ve built a menu that feels both comforting and adventurous. What impressed me is their commitment to sourcing ingredients directly from the farm—it’s not just a trendy tagline. The eggs, the herbs, the veggies, even the meats come straight from PEG Farm, steps from the kitchen. It doesn’t get more local than that.

But it’s not just about the food. Rebecca and Nathan have created a warm, welcoming, and authentic space. Dining here isn’t just about filling your belly—it’s about connecting with the land, the people, and the culture of Barbados. You can feel the love in everything they do.

1. From Their Soil to Your Plate

The Farm House Café is the definition of “farm-to-table.” Everything is fresh—like, just-picked-this-morning fresh. Ingredients come straight from the farm, and you can taste the difference. Whether it’s the tender, slow-braised pork chop or the ultra-satisfying vegan plantain waffles, every dish feels like a love letter to the land and the people who cultivate it.

2. There’s Something for Everyone

Whether you’re a devout carnivore or a veggie-lover, the menu delivers. Think creative, wholesome, hearty meals that leave you full and happy—not heavy and sluggish. The café regularly updates its offerings based on what’s in season, so there’s always something new and exciting to try.

3. Nature is the Main Course

Imagine sipping fresh bush tea while overlooking sweeping views of the east coast. Chickens roam free nearby, the breeze is cool, and the whole space is alive with the sounds of the countryside. It’s peaceful, beautiful, and a complete detox from the hustle of the beach crowds. After your meal, you can explore the farm’s walking trails or just hang out with the goats and cows.

4. It’s More Than a Café—it’s a Way of Life

PEG Farm is all about living in harmony with nature. They practice permaculture, holistic grazing, and biodynamic farming. The Farm House Café is an extension of that philosophy—food prepared with care, community, and consciousness. It’s the kind of place where you don’t just eat; you reconnect.

5. The Reviews Say It All

Travelers are raving. One guest said their meal “felt like Michelin-star quality with a Barbadian twist.” Others call it the best meal they’ve had on the island. And it’s not just the food—they talk about the experience: the friendly staff, the mountain air, the view, the vibe. It’s the sort of hidden gem that people dream of stumbling across—and tell all their friends about afterward.
