Walkers often stop by the Orchard Cafe following a stroll at Worcester Woods Country Park

A CAFE in the grounds of Green Flag Award-winning Worcester Woods Country Park which sources local produce has celebrated its first birthday since changing hands.

Owners Guy and Lynette Ward said Orchard Café has gone from strength to strength and put the success down to the fact the majority of their food is home-made, using ingredients from local suppliers.

Mr Ward, who is the cafe’s chef, said: “A lot of people get a big surprise when they come here. They’re often expecting a greasy spoon and what they’re getting is nice home-made food. We try to cook food that we would cook for our children. This is a country park and if you go out for a walk it’s healthy so the food they get here should be healthy. I try to keep the food reasonably simple - it’s not fancy, but it’s wholesome.”
