Farm to Fork
At Puldagon Farm Shop and Restaurant we are passionate about the quality of our ingredients and what better way to ensure quality that to rear it yourself. We raise our own Highland beef and lamb on our farm for use in the restaurant. We also forage on the farm for seasonal ingredients to create quirky and inspiring dishes. Yellow gorse, nettles, wild garlic, herbs, even sticky willies and more, are harvested in the morning and served on the lunchtime specials - you cant get fresher than that!
Supporting Local Businesses
Scotland produces some of the highest quality food and ingredients in the world and Caithness is no exception! In addition to our own home reared highland beef and lamb, we have some amazing producers right on our doorstep - Aberdeen Angus beef, cheeses, lamb, milk, milkshakes, charcuterie, seafood, gin, whiskey, rum and vegetables can all be sourced within a 25 mile radius.
Above is our neighbours at Upper Northfield Farm who grow their vegetables without the use of pesticides and insecticides - and just look at the size of that cabbage! When in season we use their vegetables in our kitchen and stock them for purchase in our shop.
Having such a vast array of ingredients available locally not only allows us to produce the freshest, farm to fork dishes, but also supports local businesses and reduces our carbon footprint, so its a win win all round!

Young Farmer's Champion Lambs
We are committed to supporting our local farming community and especially the next generation of farmers. Each year we purchase the 'Young Farmers Champion Lambs' from the Christmas Show sale at Aberdeen and Northern Marts at Quoybrae, Watten. We then showcase the meat from these lambs, alongside our own meat, at our annual taster menu night, 'A Taste of Tannach' (please see our 'Events' tab for more info).
