Strawberry overload @ Raaju's Strawberry Farm, Cameron Highlands

Cameron Highlands is basically Strawberry-Land. There are a few big strawberry farms and depending on which one you visit, you may get to pluck the strawberries yourself. On our recent visit to Cameron Highlands we were not really aiming to pluck any strawberries seeing as we have a toddler and a baby to manage around, but we were interested to at least visit a decent strawberry farm with decent produce.



So we visited Raaju's Strawberry Farm, which is located just off the town of Brinchang (it is easily found through the GPS tracker). Although nowhere as "happening" as the Big Red Strawberry Farm it is however a nice place to visit most likely because it hardly ever gets crowded and the owner, Mr Raaju himself mans the front counter. It is a family-run business basically which gives the whole place a very friendly appeal.



The menu is laden with strawberry influences but we had strawberry cake and ice-cream which was super delish! They also had scones but for the life of me I cannot recall why I did not have them.

Mr Raaju's Farm also produces its own strawberry jam and concentrate, which was one of the first things I bought. The jams are available in both usual or less sugar forms, which is great to be given as gifts. The concentrates are one of my favourites because of the sweet and crunchy texture.



As we were leaving, Mr Raaju gave us a box of free strawberries! Well, actually he gave them to Alwi because Alwi was probably acting too cute for his own good but we were happy nonetheless. Would definitely come by this place again if we were ever in Cameron Highlands again in the future :)

Our overall verdict with regards to :

The Food : 8/10. They have cakes, ice-cream, juices, smoothies, and scones. All with strawberries,. I loike!

The Ambience : 6/10. It isn't exactly a bistro, but there are decent seats with roofs, which is enough.

The Location : 8/10. I think most places are accessible in Cameron Highlands.

The Pricing : 7/10. Typical in Cameron Highlands, but worth it.

Baby-friendly? : There are road ramps which allow for strollers to get around, but that's about it.

Address :
Raaju's Strawberry Farm,
Brinchang,
Cameron Highlands.
