At HATCH, we believe the best meals begin with ingredients you can trust—grown nearby, served with care.

Nestled on Hatfield Road in Hertfordshire (AL4 0HE), HATCH at Smallford Farm Shop is more than a café—it’s a celebration of local abundance. Step inside our bright, welcoming space and discover a curated selection of farm shop treasures, from seasonal produce to artisanal pantry staples. But the true heartbeat of HATCH? Our kitchen, where classic brunch dishes and signature Smallford creations shine, all crafted with ingredients sourced just steps away from Glinwell’s thriving fields.

Here, simplicity meets substance. Our streamlined café menu—featuring hearty breakfasts, indulgent cakes, and dishes unique to Smallford—reflects a commitment to quality over quantity. (No burgers here—just honest, flavorful food made for savoring.)
