Wild Strawberry

I mentioned in an earlier blog post (very much earlier, apologies for he absence) that I wanted to go to the Wild Strawberry Cafe, the pop up yurt in Peterley Manor Farm. Its adorable appearance and unique tent-like structure makes it stand out from the typical cafes that are in Bucks, so Ella and I hopped over there one morning for brunch. 

We were seated quickly and quietly, which was expected as we ventured there early on a Tuesday morning- not exactly the busiest time. 

The menu was slightly limited, I'll be honest. Compared to other brunch destinations, there isn't a huge variety. However, this was justified by the fact that this is a 'pop-up' cafe, and the options we did settle for were definitely pleasing! 

Prices are reasonable in my opinion, especially as portion sizes are decent and the location is perfect.

The interior was reminiscent of Great British Bake Off in my opinion, with bunting galore and cute quirks adorning the tables and walls. 

Ella looks chuffed with her luxurious hot chocolate, despite the hot weather that accompanied it.

I opted for Earl Grey tea, and AAH look how cute everything is! The miniature watering can complete with gingham bow almost made me cry with happiness.

The moment arrived for the grand event- the breakfast. I went for a classic, of scrambled eggs and smoked salmon, draped across toasted sourdough bread. The eggs were creamy and gently seasoned, and they certainly weren't stingy with the salmon- even though it's hiding under all the egg here!

Ella went for the decadent blueberry pancake stack, with greek yoghurt and maple syrup. I stole a forkful of hers and almost, almost regretted my decision to go with the eggs. The pancakes were perfectly fluffy, although I do think they could be more generous with the blueberries here.

We stayed afterwards for a little extra drink, and I of course went for the elderflower. It was honestly the best elderflower pressè  I have had, and the lime and mint made it mojito-like. All it needed was a dash of rum and I would have been good to go!

 See the cuteness? SEE IT?!

I couldn't resist this last picture due to my obsession of all Potter-related regalia. 

I want the box.

Overall, I wish the Wild Strawberry Cafe was more than a summer fling for me. The quaint touches and delicious food and drink leave me wanting more, and I definitely hope it will turn into a longer-lasting affair.
