The Black Farmer Avis 

The food is absolutely gorgeous and such a lovely range, the service was spot on.Thanks Sophia .

Very good selection of choices. Decent pricing too. Their customer service is excellent , human, friendly and informative. Delivered on time too.

I recently visited the Black Farmer Shop in Brixton Village and I have to say it did not disappoint. The bright and very beautifully designed shop is filled with gorgeous produce, meats and other goodies from his own collection. There are also other thoughtfully curated brands and items that blend so well with the rest of the shop. I bought a few goodies and was pleasantly surprised by the freshness and taste and I thought the prices were very fair. I purchased the hard dough bread it was soft fresh and delicious, the frozen oxtail with rice and peas, also very delicious, his own brand crisps and sweet and spicy tomato sauce. Everything I purchased was really delicious. I will be back to buy some other treats.

I just ate a delicious lunch box from the deli counter at White City. Quite pricey, but everything really delicious and filling so it was well worth the money. The male serving staff member was really friendly but unfortunately I’m scoring a 4 instead of 5 because there was a female staff member behind the counter who looked like she didn’t want to be there and who did not actually speak when addressed.

Excellent customer service from Sophia and Beth when my delivery went AWOL and a replacement sent out straight away. Have enjoyed so far, tasty sausages, pies, amazing steaks, ribs and burgers.

Quick delivery , quality produce and the pies 🥧 are sensational , tried several flavours and types and all top notch and make an easy , filling and quick midweek meal .

I bought a package of The Black
Farmer 's Daughter sausages. They were well presented and I cooked them in the air fryer. Excellent, tasty, meaty, well seasoned. I would definitely be buying more for family meals. They tasted so good I am also going to use them for home made pasta dishes and sausage rolls. Well dobe Black Farmer!

Bought these on impulse, I must say they are very tasty and meaty I do mine in the oven will defgo buy again
Great effort !!

We have bought Black Farmer pork sausages for several years and always found them tasty and good quality. Our local Sainsbury's doesn't always stock them and so it's been a while since we had them. However, I bought a pack a couple of weeks ago and the skins were so tough, we couldn't cut them, let alone chew them. I ended up stripping the skins off the sausages and eating the sausage meat on its own.
I don't know what you're using for skins now, but it's inedible. I note other customers have made similar comments in recent months. I won't be buying them again, unless you do something about the skins!

I recieved a voucher for a bottle of prosecco for my birthday unfortunately I tried to put the code in and it didn't work so after I had submitted my order I rang customer services however I was told I should have added it to my basket and because I hadn't there was nothing they could do. In my order we bought two flat iron steaks they were the worst we have ever eaten really tough and fatty. They cost us just short of £20 we couldn't eat it. I'm so sad we have always loved the black farmer produce but we won't be buying from him again!

I've just received my 2nd delivery of ready made meals. They are very tasty and convenient.
But what has blown me away is their Black Pudding which tastes as nice as it used to taste when I was younger. I rarely bought it because in supermarkets it's cardboardy and tasteless.
But not this. Wonderful old fashioned taste.
Thank you!

The new White City store is superb. The selection of produce is fabulous and fairly priced. The staff are attentive and warm. What a great addition to the area.

I ordered the Chicken and bacon suet pudding. Unfortunately it was nothing like the advertisement. While it was nice and I did enjoy it, the meat was minimal in comparison to the picture. This isn’t a cheap product and I would have expected it to be at least similar to the advertisement. It was nice, but didn’t live up to expectation.

I ordered a large gammon joint just before the New Year break for the first delivery date after for a large family gathering. I had excellent, courteous and charming assistance from Sophia, who rectified an address error I made promptly and made sure I received my delivery on time.

The gammon was super fresh, with barely any excess fat coming off - just the right amount to glaze and roast with honey and mustard after simmering on the stove. The ham was delicious, as was the stock. I would definitely buy again. Thank you very much, Sophia and Wilfred!

Oh Dear. Had tried to order a Black Farmer turkey via Ocado but they couldn't deliver so went direct.

Ordered a turkey and gammon from the website on 30th November for delivery on 20th December. Received a DPD tracking reference. On 20th received a text message saying they would deliver on 21st. This was then followed by a message saying they would try and deliver on 23rd December.

As this was not a guarantee, decided to cancel and then ended up going to a supermarket for a turkey.

Ordered a delivery for the 20th Dec. Order didn’t arrive, so phoned & explained, no ham , no rilletts. Was told they didn’t have the ham, the rilettes would be sent next week. Already received an Email to say order was on its way for said date. I placed this order on the 6th Dec 24. So they had plenty of time to address the problem. The items were of course for Christmas lunch.Hugely disappointed with this company, first time using, will not be returning. Feel have been treated really badly with no proper explanation. Just a ‘sorry’

I used the BF twice now, my latest order was okay, but very disappointed with the potatoes 1kg of small potatoes for £3.70 which only had 6 small potatoes. And 500g of big potatoes for £1.65 which consisted of two potatoes. I wouldn’t order them again, wouldn’t order the ready meals again very small ratio of meat to rice. But on a positive note the carrots, scotch bonnets, cauliflower & shallots tasted absolutely beautiful. So thank you for that kind sir.

Just had another Steak and Horseradish as well as a mutton Curry and Oxtail stew (over 3 days)

The steamed pudding was wonderful EXCEPT that the instructions do not tell you to remove the outer packaging. As many microwave dishes tell you to pierce the wrapping that was what I did. It caught fire. As I didn't fancy removing the black bits it went in the bin.

Fortunately I had another which was wonderful. Not a lot of horseradish so I supplemented with my own horseradish fresh from the garden to hot it up.

The Oxtail stew was wonderful - if a little light on the oxtail. Well cooked but as a lot of it is bone, it could do with a bigger container and a bit more oxtail to make it a satisfying meal. Loved the mutton curry.

I will definitely be reordering once Christmas is over and we have space in the freezer again

I love steak and kidney pudding and haven’t had one for decades. I had a hankering to try one the other week and found The Black Farmer website. I was excited as the photographs looked mouthwatering. I ordered 2 steak and kidney and 5 other suet pastry pies/puddings. Unfortunately, the day before delivery I was contacted by phone and informed that they didn’t have any steak and kidney puddings in stock. I was disappointed as these were the reason I placed my order. My order arrived, well packaged the following day.
I have just cooked my first pudding, Beef and Horseradish. I steamed it, as I don’t have a microwave. I am a bit disappointed. It didn’t have that nice suet taste that I remember from my childhood and it was a bit dry. I will definitely make some nice gravy to go with it next time. In my opinion there was not enough filling and gravy, although what was there was nice and tender. It didn’t taste much of horseradish and generally lacked taste and seasoning. This is my first order from The Black Farmer, and my first pudding. On my first tasting I am a little underwhelmed. I will give the others a try.

Really really bad the chipolata sauasges were the worse sauasges I've ever had the meat tasted really odd I've never tatsed meat so disgusting I won't be ordering anything from garbage again
