Loved it. Great 0% beers to! Lovley staff really nice vibes, super tasty food. It’s not the cheapest … but IMHP worth every penny especially as it’s an indie place.

Lovely as always! Great staff, nice decor. My Mother-in-law and I had the Swedish Hot Salmon open sandwich and the Harissa chicken with lentils and grains salad. The salad was so good, I am trying to figure out how to replicate it. Only grumble was that the drinks arrived late, and we had already started eating. Food was served quickly. Tiffin was delicious- huge portion.

Every single time. Spot on. Excellent good and service. Only issue for us was the noise of the babies, that did not stop for the whole of our Sunday Lunch, we know everyone wants to go out, ofcourse, maybe though, times could be staggered? So adults without children with them can also have a nice time out? Would it possible to stop babies, say, after 2pm? So adults know they can book when children aren't screaming?

Fabulous food, always our go to place. Promote friendly service.

Staff welcoming, good menu choice with fair prices. I enjoyed an amazing omelette & my friends chose a jacket potato which they said was very tasty. The pub/restaurant was cleaner & tables were cleaned once vacated Would definitely recommend

I visit The Barn Garden Centre at least twice a week to meet friends, and I'm never disappointed. There is always a warm welcome, friendly, attentive service and excellent quality food. This visit was a breakfast visit and was as pleasant as I'd expected it to be. Good value for money in a relaxing environment, and good choice of food on menus.

Our second visit to The Bakers Arms, for lunch, and it didn’t disappoint, all four of us really enjoyed our meals. Food was superb.

We had a late Sunday lunch on 5th October. As usual the food was delicious and the service great. Staff were very friendly even though they were extremely busy. Would thoroughly recommend and it has become our favourite place to eat.

Absolutely the best roast I've had in a long time service was really good and a nice garden centre to walk round after the very generous roast and the ultimate cauliflower cheese is a must will definitely recommend too family and friends

The food was absolutely delicious. We all enjoyed a Sunday Roast and it was so tasty. You could taste that the food was so fresh. The ice cream was also delicious. We would definitely recommend this restaurant and would visit again.

Once again a lovely family meal at the Owl, great service, great food and a great atmosphere, can’t wait to go back!

Booked table for three on Friday. Was very busy but the service was as usual friendly and efficient. We each had different meals and all agreed that the food was of a very high standard, full of flavour and perfectly cooked. Whilst the restaurant was busy it never felt overcrowded and the service was never rushed. All in all an excellent dining experience.

A lovely pub with friendly service and a comprehensive menu . The food was delicious and we are definitely booking a return visit soon.

A mixed experience. The staff were friendly. We were in for an early midday lunch so got our food without too long a wait, It did take quite some time for drinks ordered later to arrive but this was understandable as they were pretty full and there didn't seem to be that many waiting staff. ( I feel for them, I had to work short staffed on many occasions at a nearby Garden Centre which has now closed) Also we didn't mind that much as we were happy chatting and having a catch up. The food was good with some interesting choices however we all felt it is very expensive for what you get and it really needs just a couple of simple more affordable choices to make the menu a bit more varied.
