All our pies are handmade here in the Sweetpea Kitchen using handmade butter pastry and filled with local meat, its a proper pie.

Had a lovely meal on the terrace at Sweetpea Kitchen. Lucky enough to be one of the first to try their new smash burger deal. Really nicely done, one of the better ones ive tried in boa, big portion of chips and a top pint of Hazy Plan from True Story. The service was great, they really made me and my family feel welcome. We also had Lily the Labrador for company which pushed this visit over the 5 star threshold! Will definitely be going back 🙌

Surpringly delicious and worth the money. Had the butter chicken pie with chips, and it was incredible; homemade and the chips were golden and crispy. It came with roast carrots and parsnips, and gravy which were lovely accompaniments, although I didn't need gravy with a curry pie. The pork and apple burger was delicious too. Sat outside in the sunshine, it was lovely, although nearly everyone else seemed to order the chicken club, so maybe we missed a trick. It was £50 for two people to have lunch and a drink, but the food was so clearly homemade and delicious that it was well worth it.

Malgré un extérieur peu avenant, l'intérieur est chaleureux et la cuisine y est bonne pour un tarif raisonnable.

We enjoyed a full English breakfast that was clean (not oily), delicious and generous. A great atmosphere, chilled and relaxed with great views of the river and warm, friendly staff. A great way to chill out and enjoy great food.

The food was not the best but still quite good. The atmosphere and the location was amazing though. The staff were friendly even though they were quite busy and short-staffed.

We called in at Bradford on Avon for lunch on the way back to Shropshire from Weymouth. We saw the Sweetpea Kitchen from where we parked. It has a very welcoming ambience. There were plenty of delicious looking pies and cakes on view as we walked in. We had the Smashed Avocado on toast, the Chicken Club sandwich and the Beef Bourgignon pie. All were spectacular. We also suffered a little dose of food envy seeing what was being served to other diners, particularly some of the salads. We’ll definitely be back some time.
