We are absolutely over the moon to share some incredible news. The Farmhouse Kitchen & Pantry has been crowned the winner of the Field to Fork Award at the Norfolk & Suffolk Magazine Food & Drink Awards 2025!
This year’s awards, held at Epic Studios in Norwich, brought together the region’s finest chefs, producers, farmers, and food lovers for an unforgettable night celebrating all things local. To take home the Field to Fork Award, sponsored by Hotel School at City College Norwich, is such a huge honour and a moment we’ll never forget.
Bringing Field to Fork to Life
From the beginning, our vision for The Farmhouse Kitchen & Pantry has been simple: to create a place where people can truly taste the farm, connect with the land around them, and experience the best of Norfolk and Suffolk’s rural heritage.
This award celebrates exactly that, the connection between farming, produce, and hospitality, and it’s at the heart of everything we do. From the milk produced by our pedigree dairy herd at E S Burroughs & Sons, to the local ingredients in our kitchen and the artisan goods in The Pantry, every part of what we offer is rooted in a true field-to-fork ethos.
We’re incredibly proud that the judges recognised our commitment to sustainability, community, and celebrating the Norfolk countryside through food.
A Huge Thank You
We want to extend the biggest thank you to our amazing team, from our farmers to our kitchen crew, front-of-house staff, and everyone behind the scenes who brings The Farmhouse Kitchen & Pantry to life every single day.
Thank you, too, to our wonderful customers and local suppliers. Your loyalty, support, and belief in what we do make everything possible. This award belongs just as much to you as it does to us.
A heartfelt thank you to all of this year’s incredible finalists, from breweries and distilleries to pubs, bakeries, and restaurants, who make Norfolk and Suffolk’s food and drink scene such a joy to be part of. It was an honour to stand alongside you and celebrate your passion and creativity.
And of course, a huge thank you to the award organisers, judges, and sponsors for shining a light on the region’s outstanding culinary community.
A Night to Remember
The ceremony was a true celebration of our region’s talent and teamwork — full of laughter, inspiration, and delicious local food.
