"The preparation of provisions is of extremely great moment; this savouring of the kitchen and buttery is of more consequence than those fables of gold, precious stones and the like."

This worthy sentiment is of even greater poignancy today. With so much of our food being commercially processed and manufactured, it is reassuring to know that ever since its establishment in 1987, Gilberry Fayre has adhered to its philosophy of 'homemade goodness'.

All of our sweet and savoury foods are made without any artificial additives or preservatives. Instead, Gilberry Fayre's recipes make use of only natural ingredients, to create wholesome food of the highest quality.

It is this commitment to quality, in both produce and service that has ensured the company's successful expansion, meeting demand from an increasingly discerning public.

Gilberry Fayre has grown to include a coffee shop and restaurant offering a delicious range of savoury and sweet dishes, fascinating craft store and a convenient outlet for our extensive range of products

All this housed in a fine, 150 year-old schoolhouse building, decorated in a friendly, rustic style and situated just outside Gilford, on the Banbridge Road, County Down.
