Lovely venue, delicious food and the staff are always friendly.

Another lovely lunch. Great outside seating area, undercover. Good food, choice and service. Super cakes. Garden centre plants are also superb and I love looking around the gift shop area too. Thank you to all the lovely, friendly staff that make this place a hidden gem. Will be back again soon!

I have never had a bad meal here. The staff are very helpful and friendly at all times and the food is delicious. I always feel like I am eating a healthy meal every time, and not being a meat eater too. The food always looks appetizing and well presented. They have great chefs. The place is clean and airy and you can choose whether to sit inside or out. In fact I cannot fault this cafe at all so come and try it. You will not regret it. It is comfortable, a great place to meet your friends and family. Plenty to buy in the shop and a great garden centre too. What's not to like?!

a really lovely roast dinner on a Sunday, and plenty of it!

Delicious food beautifully presented and value for money. Staff friendly, accommodating and very helpful. Lovely to look around the garden centre and gift area as well. Thank you

Friendly service and covid safe. The poached eggs were just right with smashed avocado. Everything was clean and cleaned.

We had a lovely breakfast & the staff were really friendly & helpful.

Our first visit to this great place after a recommendation from friends . Good food ,good service and a very lovely garden centre with an enormous variety of plants and beautiful items . Highly recommended for a nice day visit . We will certainly go again .

I took my mum for a birthday lunch on Saturday. Booked a table online, very easily. As always staff were friendly, food was delicious and the whole experience was just what we’d hoped for. Thank you

Always a good breakfast. They accommodate my requests for tomatoes and sausages. Lovely time yesterday with granddaughters.

Good food, excellent service and lovely ambience what more could you ask for?Nothing is too much trouble from the friendly team at this little gem of a restaurant.

Cannot find fault with this lovely garden centre cafe The staff are always accommodating and friendly, and the tables always clean We visit nearly every week for coffee and cake or a delicious breakfast Took our Grand daughter at the weekend catered for her without question Than you to everyone at Barnplants

Family breakfast here, food was lovely, staff attentive & good value for money. The barn cafe is aways very clean & very organised. Aways a good choice.

The staff were very efficient, friendly and attentive. The service was very quick and the food was excellent. Would recommend highly and will be returning.

The food was delicious but we had to wait an hour for it!!!!!!!

Have been eating here for years now, fron Bfast to Lunch and Sunday Dinner, plus coffee and cakes. Cannot fault the quality of the food and service. We took some guests there yesterday for lunch and most of us had the beer battered fish and chips. The batter was beautifully done and very thin and crispy. My only comment is that the fish was extremely greasy. Perhaps it could have been left to drain a bit longer! Apart from that, very tasty

Nice cakes and good coffee and family friendly.

Yummy breakfast as usual. On being greeted and seated, we were pre-warned there might be a slight delay due to a large party booking but service was excellent. Would definitely recommend ❤️
