The Best of Wiltshire and the West – Ploughman’s Lunch Buffet

June 6 : 12:00 pm - 3:30 pm

Free – £17.75
A visually rich spread showcasing a traditional Ploughman's Buffet. The image features an inviting assortment of classic British buffet items. In the foreground, various types of cheeses, including blocks of hard yellow cheese and marbled blue cheese, are arranged with care. Surrounding the cheese are fresh green grapes, slices of cured meats, pickles, and cherry tomatoes, creating a vibrant mix of textures and colors. Small dishes containing chutneys or jams are interspersed among the items, adding depth and variety to the display. Fresh herbs and delicate white flowers are thoughtfully scattered around, enhancing the rustic, artisanal appeal of the spread. In the bottom right, a container holds wooden skewers for easy serving. Large, bold text in a classic serif font reads 'Ploughman's Buffet,' prominently displayed over the center of the image. The background includes a hint of dark green wall paneling, adding a cozy, traditional British pub atmosphere to the presentation.

Unlimited Wiltshire & West Country Buffet at The Barge Inn, Honeystreet

Get Tickets

Join us in the Barn at The Barge Inn, Honeystreet, for a celebration of the very best produce from Wiltshire and the South West.

This is not just a buffet.  It is a carefully curated showcase of outstanding local food, where quality comes first, and you are free to enjoy it at your own pace.

Local. Seasonal. Exceptional.

We focus, wherever possible, on local producers, especially from Wiltshire:

Expect a generous and varied selection, including Wiltshire Loaf, Avebury (Wiltshire Brie), Dorset Red, and other West Country favourites.

Unlimited, and Without Compromise

You are free to return as often as you like.

Start with a small plate, try something new, then go back and build your perfect Ploughman’s. This is about enjoying great food properly. Not rushing, not piling high, but discovering what you like and going back for more.

A Unique Setting

Set beside the Kennet and Avon Canal in the beautiful Vale of Pewsey, The Barge Inn offers a relaxed, characterful setting with a canal-side garden and its distinctive Barn venue.

The space is almost fully accessible – DO please contact me with any questions or concerns. The atmosphere is always welcoming, eclectic, and full of character.

Make It Your Own

Create your own ideal Ploughman’s Lunch from a table full of exceptional ingredients:

Cheeses, breads, ham, pies, pickles, chutneys, butter, and more, all selected for quality and provenance.

Come hungry, take your time, and enjoy.

Allergens & Dietary Notes

We can offer gluten-free alternatives where possible,  please let us know in advance.

While we aim to accommodate dietary requirements, food is prepared in shared environments, and we cannot guarantee the absence of allergens. Please contact us to discuss any concerns.

This is a traditional Ploughman’s Lunch offering, with a strong focus on cheese and pork products. If you have specific requirements, please get in touch and we will do our best to help.

Timed Entry – stay as long as you like

We are using timed entry for this event to better manage service flow and product availability. Whilst we will have more than enough food, occasionally an item may prove exceptionally popular. Timed entry helps ensure that all visitors have the opportunity to sample everything equally.

End of session sales

We buy directly from many suppliers to showcase their products. We deliberately overstock, not only to ensure that it would be impossible for all the food to be consumed, but also so we can offer these excellent products for you to take home.

Make a note of your favourites and let us know. Towards the end of service, we will confirm what is available so that everyone has fair access.

Get a ticket and let your creativity flourish, your taste buds will thank you for it.
