This place is absolutely outstanding!!!It's such a welcoming place,the food is incredible and the staff are so polite and lovely.It's our new favourite place to go.I would highly recommend popping in if you havnt before ?
Very nice place for some food. I’ve been a few times and never disappointed by what I’ve ordered, and the cakes are great. Lots of vegan options ? and the seating area is a beautiful converted barn. Staff are always very friendly! Would recommend.

Parked at Rushwick park and walked to the Fold. Normally we can walk across the fields, come out by the Fox pub and then over the road to continue along the river to the fold but as everywhere had been flooded lately, just stuck to the road for a 2.2 mile walk (one way). A warm welcome awaited. Rox enjoyed her obligatory toast!!!

Love this place!Me and my boys camped there this summer. We had a great time, there's a nature walk and we went for a swim in the River Teme. There was loads going on. A great market too.

What a great experience!We were actually at the Fold as traders, however the atmosphere, the people and venue is amazing!The market has so many amazing small businesses with fantastic items. You can make a day of it as there is food, trails, the market, cafes and waterways.Easy to get to, family and pet friendly, lovely people, products and scenery.

Only had great experiences selling at the fold. Lovely venue with a reliably good footfall. Can’t fault.

I am Tree-t carvings and I have held stalls at the Fold a few times this year. My work, my art aligns perfectly with their ethos of sustainability. As hosts I highly recommend them, great team, lovely venue. Looking forward already to working with the Fold in 2024.Mark

Love this place..full of creativity and good vibes. Authentic people and lovely community gatherings. The land here is amazing with beautiful nature trails and organic veg available in the honesty shop and via veg box ❤️

Two of our party were allowed to order from the lunch menu (toasties), but I was told that I had to order from the breakfast menu.The food service was very slow, and they weren't able to deliver our 6 plates of food even slightly close together. My food was cold before anyone else in the group received theirs. Two of our party didn't receive their meals until after the rest of us had finished eating.I am gluten intolerant, and ordered a gluten free meal. I was given a meal made with normal bread. Fortunately, I had seen another table's food arrive and queried this before eating any. I have been unwell all afternoon following my meal, consistent with a reaction to gluten, possibly as a result of cross contamination in the kitchen.I could forgive much of this had the food been tasty, but it was frankly the most unpleasant meal I have eaten in a long time. The hummus tasted of garlic and nothing else, and the 'wilted seasonal greens' consisted of 4 spinach leaves - barely a garnish.I have no intention of returning to this café.

The food is good once it arrives but when you arrive at the counter you have to hunt for the menu because it’s covered by the queue of people in front of you! I come here occasionally when I visit a friend locally and I’ve never seen the staff smile or welcome customers. They always seem so stressed out!! Never come away from the till point with a warm feeling. Thankfully the food makes up for what the staff lack but shame really.

What’s not to love about the Fold, the amazing small shops with the most delightfully creative gifts, paintings and pottery. The best coffee in Worcester and some awesome vegan fair at the cafe (the cakes are delicious too)!There’s the veg shed that supply’s top quality organic vegetables and eggs straight from the farm (the flavours aren’t just good it’s the type of produce that elevates dishes to the next level)Running foraging walks around the nature trails has been an inspiration, there’s always new species to find and peaceful places to rest and soak in the natural beauty that the meadows surrounding the river teme have by the bucket load.Utilising the market barn for fermentation classes offers bags of space, access to sinks, water and a kitchen, surrounded by the drying onions and garlic bulbs from the farm sets the scene for creating bubbling brews, organic sauerkrauts and misos.The team at the Fold are helpful, warm and enthusiastic. Nothing is too much trouble and there’s no problem they can’t deal with swiftly and efficiently.I have thoroughly enjoyed every visit to the fold and look forward to many more visits in the future

This place should be great but the food is insubstantial and overpriced. Have just been rushed 7.50 for what amounted to a bowl of lettuce with a teaspoon of hummus and chick pees no quinoa as advertised. Home now having a proper lunch. Poor show
