COME TO THE FAIR
Lemon sticks, cotton candy, buckets of fudge, a sky high view from a ferris
wheel, shops to tempt the buyer and browser alike, handcrafted creations, and
food booths bursting with hot dogs, hamburgers, pizza, ice cream and even
filet. Where can you find all that and more? Where else but at the Devon
Country Fair.
DEVON GARDEN CAFE
Don't miss dining in the Devon Garden Cafe. Luncheon specials include wonderful
salads as well as warm entrees. For dinner, come through the line and choose
from our delicious fare. There are also boxed gourmet lunches and suppers
available by reservation for you to take up to your box. You'll find a daily
menu posted in front of the cafeteria.
TEA CART
The Tea Cart is the oldest Devon booth and the start of the Devon Country Fair.
Although you won't find the lace tablecloths and sterling silver urns of
yesteryear, you will still find its own blend of iced tea served with sugar
syrup, mint leaves and lemon. You can begin your morning here with fresh fruit,
coffee and danish and then stop by for lunch to sample the delicious tea
sandwiches and pastries.
SNACKS GALORE
You won't go hungry at Devon. All day long and into the night the sizzle of
hamburgers and hot dogs on the grill and the tempting aroma of pizza and fries
will let you know good food awaits you. In addition, you can grab a sandwich or
a salad and, of course, soft drinks and ice cream.
DEVON FUDGE
A visit to the Devon Horse Show and Country Fair wouldn't be complete without a
stop at the Devon Candy Booth for a taste of the famous Devon Fudge. Each year
over 2,500 lbs. of this deliciously decadent treat is sold. And don't forget
the lemon sticks. Children love this century old Devon tradition.
MORE SHOPS
Nearly 40 shops line the paths of Devon including local favorites as well as
many out-of-town merchants. Make sure you save time to browse through these
boutiques. You'll find everything from elegant designer clothes and stunning
jewelry, to art and sculpture as well as everything and anything for the horse
fancier.
