Library Ingatestone – ChelmsfordAbsolutely lovely experience as always! Even with an almost full house the service was courteous and prompt, the food was beautifully cooked, best beer battered haddock locally and the atmosphere was friendly and engaging. I would highly recommend The Barn Café for breakfast, lunch or just a pot of tea and cake! Many thank for another lovely experience.

The Barn Garden Centre Cafe – ColchesterNice atmosphere for Christmas lunch but was surprised not much windows open to let air circulation especially with what is happening. Also no proper labelling on food for vegetarian & vegan or Gluten Free. Service was a bit slow when it got busy.

The Barn Garden Centre Cafe – ColchesterCame for breakfast the food was good as was the service. Tables were well spaced which made it feel safe. We love the coffee here for us the best locally! It's just a shame that the disabled parking still hasn't been sorted out still just a few haphazard cones.

The Barn Garden Centre Cafe – ColchesterGreat place for food but needs vegan options for breakfast! And more exciting veggie options.
The Barn Garden Centre Cafe – ColchesterDisappointed to be honest owner lovely and welcoming starters turned up cold main meal was nice. There are no vegetarian or vegan options no chicken on menu staff need far more training one of my party asked for steak and was not asked how he would like it cooked. We had just finished our main was not asked if we wanted dessert or coffee instead asked to move to the bar which meant we could not continue our conversation and they didn’t even use our table. Very over priced should just be a bar sorry will not be returning.
