Summer in the Cafe -
Hello, some of you might remember me, I am Tim that spent many happy years in Lower Wield running The Yew Tree, and more recently Head Chef at Long Barn. I am still an 18 year old music lover stuck in a now older and less streamlined 53 year old body, but with all the same enthusiasm and sense of...
We are so excited to introduce you to the lovely Tim Gray, our new cafe manager! 👋🏼
For many of you, Tim will be a familiar face - Tim spent 18 years running the successful pub The Yew Tree in Wield and more recently, was the head chef at Long Barn in Alresford.
Tim comes with exceptional experience and incredible passion for excellent food and thoughtful and conscientious customer service; you’ll be hard pushed to find him without a big smile on his face and a warm greeting.
“I am super excited to join the versatile and forward thinking team at The Yard. I hope to help lead our business to continue to grow, thrive and to seek excellence in all we do” - Tim.
We are lucky to have Tim on the team and we can’t wait for you to meet him! 🤍

Thank you to everyone who came to hear play at the Yard last night. It was incredible. His pared-back, piano-led set delivered a raw and immersive soundscape which filled every inch of our old barn, whose walls have heard many stories. Tokio added his own last night: the haunting & powerful ‘Underwater’ telling of his terrifying experience in the Philippines.
Tokio was introduced to the Yard through his agent , and fell in love with the space after filming his single ‘Malaya’s Song’ here last year. It was at his request that the Yard be included as a venue on his tour, lucky us.
Huge thanks to & for believing in our team & loving our space, to for making it all happen, to the Yard team for always pitching in, to for their creative lighting and to for the amazing shots.
We’ve been assured that will return, until then, watch ‘Malaya’s Song’ if you haven’t caught it yet, it’s magical 🫶🏽
Open 9-4pm || Thursday - Sunday
