Excellent lunch, fish goujon sandwich which came with a nicely dressed salad garnish. The chips were very nice too. Service excellent

Not sure if I've been since the change of ownership but it felt different to my last visit, there wasn't any atmosphere, it was early (11:30) but was expecting some background music or something, the food was nice but I asked for plain pasta for one of my kids and it came out with the meatball sauce on it! The waitress dropped some of the food (garlic bread) on the floor and there was no offer to replace it, all in all a below average visit

Lunched here a few times, Lunch recently with a friend. Had a wrap, Very nice but need to ditch the green salad garnish and add crisps or similar. Staff always acts polite and friendly . Will definitely return again

I’ve had two breakfasts at the barn this weekend and both were as delicious as ever! All of our party were very happy. The service was excellent and everything clean and tidy - no dodging food relics under the table either. A great place to go with a busily atmosphere - highly recommend.

Excellent breakfast, as always.

The effort, by all concerned that goes into making this dining experience, remember it's just lunch, is phenomenal. Great service, lovely food and best of all fantastic value.

Excellent meal enjoyed by my husband and myself for Sunday lunch.

Excellent as always, great atmosphere, great service, awesome food. Been going for years, never been disappointed yet.

Lovely creative food Friendly service

Had a nice meal with friends this past Friday evening. The starters of potato skins and chicken tenders were beautiful. My main was ok, but I like my burgers to be cooked well done and mine was still pink in the middle - to be fair I should have sent it back but didn’t want to be a bother so unfortunately I had to leave most of my meat.

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.
