    What a nice place! Kind of hippie and very cool. Perfect for a Sunday afternoon. Really enjoyed what we've seen here.

    I've lived in Coventry all my life but didn't know this place existed. There was a craft and indoor plant sale on with lots of stalls. It was really good. Very impressed. I'm not sure if this was a one off or if similar events happen frequently, but it was nice

    Although I no longer live in Coventry, FarGo is definitely one thing that keeps me coming back. It's unfortunate to see certain units being closed and seeing the impact of the pandemic has had here. That being said, there still is the core of FarGo going strong and the empty units will not be empty for long. I will always go back to FarGo.

    A truly eclectic gem of a place in Coventry. A good variety of shops, stalls, events and eateries to entice anyone into a visit. After a mooch about we enjoyed coffee and brownies at choc n roll, I was lush, I'd definitely recommend.

    A beautiful place for arts & crafts, food and vintage shopping! The whole concept is chill and filled with good vibes! Perfect for family and friends to hang out and gather ☺️ Loads of events happening too so checkout their website regularly to grab your tickets. It’s a factory concept where little stalls are located in their own containers, selling unique items and embracing their own creativity with their distinctive touch of wonders

    It's rare you find quirky places this is one of them! Definitely recommend to visit I personally loved it! I'm abit of a nerd to be honest and this place is heaven, everyone was pleasant had some great in-depths talks with the owners of some shops. Food is well priced and I feel like this place has really thought of things when it comes to the community aspect.

    Very cool spot in Coventry, record shops, vintage and craft shops plus beer, food and sometimes music advents on. Some nice street art pieces around. The Just Dropped In records shop is superb and the lovely owner Alan is a great bloke, essential visit if you are in the city..

    FarGo Village is an absolutely brilliant mix of independent shops and eateries, together with indoor performance space. Plenty of outdoor seating too. We ate at Factory, with its choice of five food outlets, bar and coffee shop. Range of food even suited our fussy teenagers! Just Dropped In records is also fantastic. It has a great selection of reasonably priced new vinyl and an excellent used vinyl section too. Very friendly staff everywhere. FarGo is very highly recommended if you are in Cov.

    Great little village of curiosity shops to look through. Not your general shopping more adventurous and inspirational shopping. If you like Sci-Fi figures and memorabilia then there's a place for you. If you like books and a good cup of coffee then come and visit.

    Went to the Box with my family during the Vegan Food Festival. It was a really bright airy space, with lots of stalls inside as well as some more permanent shops selling a variety of charity goods, arts and crafts. A really nice hipster area within Coventry, and well worth a visit!

    We were told about this little village and it was so cool from the minute you walk in. Kids laughing and having fun with theatre people putting on shows for them. The great Crafty and Vintage small shops were amazing to find, there's something for everyone. There's food as well and we found an authentic Chinese place and the food was amazing. There's somewhere for booze as well. Street performers walking around like the lovely man on stilts and a net on his back full of plastic waste from the sea...he also gives out little shells if you are nice. There's a great shop for anyone into crystal beads, Chakra, intense, hippy clothing and so much more.

    Absolute gem of an independent retail village. From vintage clothes to upcycled furniture to graffiti lessons - there is nothing you can't find here! Some great food spots as well including vegan and gluten free.

    Went to the record/merch shop to watch 2 live bands. One of them was The Loaded. The other was Abdoujaparov. They were amazing. Both bands are on spotify. The venue itself is so cool. The owners were really friendly and helpful.
