Our Story
Fodder is a dog friendly café and farm shop based on the working farm and wedding venue, Finnebrogue Woods. Fodder began as a small farm shop as a means to sell the Dexter Beef farmed on the grasslands here at Finnebrogue Woods. This quickly spiralled to a small cafe in which we showcase our Dexter Beef. Shortly after we developed our trails, exclusively for our Fodder customers, enabling them to reconnect with nature through our mature woodlands, lake and wildlife.
Private Hire
The tipis at Fodder are available to hire and are a really magical space to have a party, hen do, birthday or corporate bash!
Gift Vouchers
A terrific present for that foodie in your life... Whether you want to spoil them with a meal in our cafe or they can choose to buy some delicious Dexter steaks to cook up at home, a Fodder in the Woods gift voucher makes a great present!
