A bit soggy out there today, wasn’t it? ☔️

Luckily, we had the important stuff covered… coffee, cake and plenty of reasons to forget about the weather for a while. ☕️🍰

Thanks to everyone who came in and cosied up with us today. You lovely lot definitely made the grey skies feel a little less grey. ❤️

We’re now closed for a couple of days, but don’t panic — Max’s will be back on Friday with the coffee machine fired up and the cake counter doing what it does best.

🥐 PLANT-BASED ISN’T SCARY. PROMISE. 🌱

This little beauty is a plant-based pain au chocolat and it’s every bit as delicious as it looks. 🤤

Max’s is open today and right through until Tuesday, serving up tasty plant-based snacks, cakes, pastries, drinks and more.

No lectures. No scary food. 😂 Just really good stuff that happens to be plant-based.

So if you’ve never tried plant-based food before… maybe start with chocolate. Seems sensible to us. 🍫🥐

On 29-30 August you can not only have a delicious cuppa in our tea room, but then you can head out to the events field and take a spin in a tea cup too!

Yep, it’s almost time for our End of Summer Carnival, and we can’t wait to have you down for this amazing fundraising event.

There’s nothing better than seeing our café tables full of happy faces enjoying our plant-based snacks, lunches and drinks at Max’s Café 💚☕🥪

Whether you’re grabbing a coffee after exploring the sanctuary, treating yourself to a tasty lunch, or stopping by for a little something sweet, we love being part of your Hopefield day out.

And the best part? There’s still plenty of time to join us for Hopefield’s Summer of Fun! 🌞🐾

Every paying child receives a FREE return visit voucher, so you can come back and enjoy even more animal adventures before the summer holidays are over!

Come for the animals, stay for the food… we’ll see you soon! 🌱✨

Forget everything you think you know about plant-based desserts. One bite of our Caramel Biscoff Cheesecake and you’ll understand why it’s become one of the favourites at Max’s Café.

Creamy, rich, packed with caramelised Biscoff flavour and sitting on a delicious biscuit base, it’s the perfect excuse to stop for coffee and cake during your visit to Hopefield.

Whether you’re a committed plant-based foodie or simply someone who loves exceptional cake, this one’s guaranteed to hit the spot.

Go on… you deserve a slice. 😋

☕ Open daily throughout the summer holidays at Max’s Café, with every purchase helping to support the rescued animals at Hopefield. 💚

🚨 Great news… Max’s Café is back open from tomorrow! 🎉

And once we’re open, we’re staying open every single day throughout the summer holidays until September. 🙌

Tomorrow is a general admission day at Hopefield Animal Sanctuary, so if you’re visiting the animals, why not pop in for a bite to eat? Then from Saturday, our Summer of Fun officially begins! ☀️🎈

Who’s coming for a portion of chips and gravy? Because, whether you’re plant-based or not, potatoes are vegan, and chips have been getting away with it all these years!

So, whether you’re after chips, a Cornish roll, coffee and cake, or one of our other tasty treats, we’ve got you covered.

See you tomorrow! 💚

Pop into Max’s Café and treat yourself to one of our delicious plant-based Cornish rolls, a freshly brewed coffee, or one of our other tasty treats… while the little ones burn off some energy in our playground just outside the cafe.

Good food. Happy kids.

We’re open whenever the sanctuary is open, so whether you’re visiting our rescued animals or just fancy a relaxing lunch in peaceful surroundings, we’d love to see you.

Who’s joining us for lunch? 💚

Sometimes kindness doesn’t have to be complicated. 💚

It can be as simple as remembering that every animal feels comfort, fear, love and friendship in their own way.

At Max’s Café, we believe in being kind to all kinds. Whether they bark, baa, oink, moo or chirp, every life matters.
