I have been coming here for a number of years usually with members of my family and every time we have been served by very friendly staff. The coffee and food delicious especially the scones. It is a very inviting cafe ,in warmer times it is lovely to sit in the outside area.recommend it highly.

We took our friends for a birthday lunch 23/9/23. We thought the service was great and food delicious. The duck was fantastic large fresh cod and chips and a quiche full of flavour. Desserts did not disappoint either. Roulade, ginger icecream, lime cheesecake and enormous walnut cake. Book or you will moss a table at this popular restaurant.

Food and service excellent and I have eaten here several times and never disappointed. Would like to see a better/increased choice of alcohol free beer/lager for those of us who are designated drivers.

Lovely food, we had ham egg and chips, the chicken burger and the Buddha bowl. The staff were all cheerful and although it was busy the service was quick.

Lovely outside seating area, food was good (sirloin steak on sourdough, plus very small salad garnish, tasted good but it came out more like a toasted sandwich on 50/50 bread, followed by a generous slice of moist carrot cake), service was very attentive, 10/10 to the staff. Would recommend and return for a visit.

What a little gem! Five of us including 2 children ate here last night, and we all thoroughly enjoyed both the delicious food and the lovely friendly atmosphere. Everything about it just shouts passion and care. Thank you, we will be back!

I visit monthly regularly with a group of 10 - it’s always really lovely, good food and excellent service. The food was a bit delayed this time unfortunately, which was surprising as I had preordered all of our breakfasts. They were very busy so I do understand. Booked already for our next visit. Thanks to all the staff

First time at the barn after lots of recommendations! It was FANTASTIC! We went for the breakfast and it was so good! It was really busy which was great to see, so if you are going make sure you’re not rushing because the waiting staff were doing the absolute best they could and they worked very hard, but with so many people things were a little slower! However, not the fault of anyone! Cannot wait to come back again!

Went for the first time last night after planning to for a long time and not getting round to it, well worth the wait. Excellent food and service, nice quirky little place. Planning to go again and would recommend to anyone.

Have used this diner before but feel this time it was a bit of a let down. The food was quite expensive for what you got, and the menu is not as extensive as it used to be. Having said that the food was fine and the friendly service very good. However I will not be returning anytime soon because of the price and limited food choice.

I wouldn’t like to write how many times I’ve eaten here. But, every single time the food is incredible regardless of breakfast or lunch sitting. Coffee takes a while, but it’s worth the wait when it does get to you. The staff are always freiendly. The restaurant is always clean and tidy. Highly recommended
