I am disabled and won't go anywhere I see a faff - if my needs aren't important I'll go elsewhere. The Barn coffee shop has made my very small list of places I can visit with no faff, once inside the gravel outside isn’t great ( gravel or steps are my nemesis) but it is easy inside and the food is fab.

The Barn Garden Centre Cafe – ColchesterEverything was lovely, only minor point, was when we went in the lady said in conversation that they were really quiet that afternoon, as I commented about my surprise of availability. How ever when my friend, who is very fussy, asked if they could do her some cheesy chips, the waitress said 'oh no we are far too busy, there were lots of spare tables. Just seemed like an excuse. Cakes were delicious!

Library Ingatestone – ChelmsfordIt was exactly how I imagined it to be for a American dinner, the staff were so friendly and helpful and nothing was to much trouble. The food was amazing very genourous portions It had a very Nice atmosphere My only complaint was they should have not sold us our milkshakes till after because they were amazing and we all devoured them before our food appeared and then struggled to enjoy our food but saying that we still ate our dinner.... highly recommended
