Great place to grab a coffee after a dog walk, plenty of outdoor seating. You can also grab a bite to eat. With indoor seating as well you can visit in any weather. Attached is a good farm shop to get a loaf of bread amongst plenty of other goods

So fortunate to have such a great village shop and cafe. Jake and his team are always helpful and the food in the cafe is excellent. The shop is well stocked and I'm always tempted by the wonderful cake section! Keep up the great work guys. Villages need places like this.

Great little spot to stop off after walking or on the way along the coast. Great coffee, salads and quiche along with the chance to grab some local produce and supplies. Thank you

Stunning cafe!! Luckily found it after we had been walking for quite a while!! Very friendly and welcoming. I had a prawn sandwich which came with a salad, crisps and coleslaw, we also ordered loaded fried with chilli that was massive! Kids ham sandwiches, SourDough with hummus and onion rings. All delicious! Bought some cakes for home and they were great.

Stopped over for a quick bite, on a car trip, to eat with my dog . What a gem! I had a Stilton and broccoli quiche and sat outside. I shared my quiche with a sassy little robin . The food and coffee were wonderful. The shop had great artisan products. There is the most amazing dog walk close by. Highly recommended and super dog friendly

Recommended by the Travelodge at Fontwell for breakfast as they don't do food themselves. The Forge is like a village shop and more, with more stock of products than you can imagine. Ranging from their own brand of products to ones that you can buy on the High Street to ones thst you will never find on the High Street, such a selection. We had a lovely breakfast where there is seating inside the cafe as well as outside seating too. Friendly staff and well worth a visit to Slinford.
