Reviews in Colchester

Excellent service, food and atmosphere as always

Great food, lovely atmosphere and heavenly cakes! Service is alwaysssss another level

Overall an excellent place to meet friends for food and chat.

Nice place, food was nice, but for nearly £10 for a ciabatta, with a small green garnish (no salad, crisps, coleslaw) so did seem a bit pricy. We spent nearly £90 for 4 people for lunch. Shame, was nice, but too plain and basic food for the price. Due to this unfortunately won't be returning!

A lovely light brunch, when meting with a friend for lunch.

Had another lovely lunch and will be back again the next time I’m over Colchester way.

Monday lunch - quieter than usual so service swift and food delicious.

I’d heard lovely things about this cafe. Unfortunately we didn’t have a great visit, staff were incredibly rude and unwelcoming. We waited for 20 minutes for someone to take our order and were then told we couldn’t have breakfast and had to wait 30 minutes for lunch. Wrong coffee order and food was poor, small portions and expensive. Such a shame as the venue is lovely.

My wife and I went for a breakfast yesterday and were blown away by the standard of food and the amount. Absolutely amazing plus the staff were pleasant without being overbearing. A completely fantastic experience and would 120% recommend this establishment. 11/10.

A lovely place to meet and eat. I’ve been coming here for ages and the staff are friendly and food’s always good. Brontë always gets me my favourite table too!

Great experience with nice surroundings, good service and good food.

Great lunch. Yummy food and helpful, friendly staff. They were really good with accommodating a high chair and pram. There’s baby changing facilities.

Went with my son for mothers day, excellent lunch, beef beautiful and fresh veg. Calorie laden dessert, diet tomorrow! Been before, never disappointed.

Great breakfast and lovely atmosphere, great discovery, just have to remember to book!

Always worth a visit...best cakes and friendly welcoming atmosphere

Another great breakfast with great service. Have been going to the Barn for the last 5 years and is consistently very very good

Excellent breakfast here as usual . The veggie breakfast is excellent as are the American pancakes . My friend , my daughter and I are always made to feel very welcome and the service is really excellent . Can’t ge faulted

Two cousins enjoying a good catch up and a lovely lunch. The fish and chips were delicious. The restaurant was busy with other happy diners. The staff were friendly and we were greeted and served with happy smiling faces. Great place to eat. Thank you to everyone at The Barn.
