Come on in, the kettle is always on...

Ye Olde Steppes in the snow on the 2nd of February!   

Anyone for tea? We stock over 12 different types of loose leaf, locally sourced, fair trade tea. Come in and join us for a nice cup of tea and a slice of cake!


This is our wonderful shop almost 200 years ago. Notice how the window has changed to the left of the shop, but little else!  

Established since 1777, Ye Olde Steppes is back open and welcoming to all! 

Ye Olde Steppes re-opened its doors once again in January of this year to a crowd of over 70 Pembridge residents, keen to have their village shop back. 

Over the last few months the support for the village shop has grown with great reviews from tearoom users and increasing media interest.  With 
articles in the Leominster Journal, Hereford Times and Hereford Journal as well as BBC Breakfast news  presenting their show from inside the shop, the old building has once again been bustling with both locals and visitors from near and far. 

The people of Pembridge wanted a shop that provided convenience, great local produce, good quality and good value which we continue striving to deliver. 

Our produce ranges include:

Swifts the Bakers - Fresh baked daily bread and Artisan loaves on Friday and Saturdays
Country Flavours Free Range Eggs
Marston Meats- Fantastic bacon and sausages
The Dairy House: Delicous local cheese and yoghurt collected once a week from Katie at the factory in Weobley
Suzanne's Veg - Locally sourced and home grown seasonal fruit and veg.
Bearwood Bees - Scrummy Honey from Dan and Suzanne's little honey bees less than 2 miles up the road!
Trumpers Tea - Claire's wonderful loose-leaf tea. 
Minton Good Food - Local supplier of quality local produce

We are proud members of Heart of England Fine Foods and we have developed good relationships with the local producers of the foods that we stock. 

As well as stocking local produce we also keep many basic essentials to make sure you are never stuck short. If we don't have it in the shop, we'll do our best to find a product as quickly as possible. 

Our vintage "Olde" style sweet shop with jars of goodies has been a real treat for after school. Why not stop for a quarter of lemon sherbets or some herbal tablets? 

Our 1940's style tearooms provide a lovely space to drink tea from our bone china tea cups or enjoy a big slice of Gary's home-made Victoria Sponge. The space has also become a favourite for our local Pembridge Ladies social group, a nice spot to watch the world go buy from the raised views over the beautiful village. 

Please pop in and say hello! We both look forward to seeing you very soon.  Gary and Mark 

 Ye Olde Steppes in 1908 when owned by Chester & Sons. The appearance of the shop hasn't changed much since then.
