Baern Café & Bakery

Bowhouse, a repurposed stone farmstead on the organic-focused Balcaskie Estate, acts as a rural food and drink hub and has been home to the sprawling Baern Café & Bakery for several years. There’s a strong commitment to sustainability, everything is hyper-local and seasonal, and the blackboard menu changes frequently depending on what’s available. Featuring soups, sandwiches, sausage rolls and rarebits, it's the unusual and experimental flavour combinations that draw the Fife crowd: white onion, bay and Clava brie soup with rhubarb and hazelnut, say, or pulled Tamworth pork, smoked mayo and pickled cucumber focaccia. To drink, there’s a short list of natural, minimum-intervention wines, local beers (Futtle, of course), cider and cocktails.
