Hopefield Animal Sanctuary Max's Cafe

We had the pleasure of visiting Hopefield and thoroughly enjoyed it. It is a large sanctuary which houses a large variety of animals. You can pet some of them, others you cannot. This is a perfect day out for families friends celebrations! The trail is clearly marked and wide so does not feel too crowded. The gift shop has lots of fun toys and things to buy for loved ones. The cafe is plant based and has many cakes, ice creams, sandwiches etc. The victoria sponge cake was lovely. Overall a fantastic initiative giving many animals a second chance in a safe space.

A really nice animal sanctuary which has rescued a number of different types of animals and provided them refuge, including cows, goats, alpacas, horses, sheep, tortoises, birds and many more! Loads of fun for grown ups and kids to be able to stroke and communicate with all the gentle beings. Also has a cafe which is fully vegan with sandwiches, cakes and lots of snacks (unfortunately hot food wasn't available when we went due to staff shortages). Would definitely recommend for all animal friends/lovers!

Loved it so much! What a lovely experience, my family were sceptical but were all raving about what an amazing time they did have in the end! Beautiful animals, enjoyed the cafe too and the gift shop, the staff were an absolute joy! The only negative is that I personally dislike that one type of vegan cheese they use I think it is the same type Dominos use, the texture is off putting to me and there are so many other great ones out there. Loved the watermelon ice lolly from the gift shop! One of the pigs came right up to the fence and lay down and accepted a belly rub, very sweet. Careful as animals can bite of course. The emu bites, I know there was a sign about this but perhaps a couple reminder ones would be good for windy days, some of my family got pecked before spotting the sign. The only place I would have been for my hen do and so many fond memories made, I'll be back even though it's a long way! Absolutely adore that pig

Great day out! The food was fantastic with super lovely staff the vegan jaffa cake was insane, highly recommend!! The sanctuary is a perfect day out and we can't wait to visit againOnly recommendation would be to put the menu online if possible please :

Good selection of sandwiches and cakes as well as hotdogs and burgers.
