We had a lovely family meal at the Bakers Arms. The quality of the food and the choices were excellent, as was the service. We are looking forward to returning.

Food was beautiful. As non-vegans we did not miss the meat. Music was a tiny bit too loud and food/beer on the pricier side, but as a treat, it was worth it.

Yet another delicious lunch , we all had the Asian salad, two of us with chicken one with smoked salmon - we all really enjoyed our meals and would not hesitate to recommend the Barn cafe.

was really nice in there the staff was amazing very friendly and food was very tasty.

Had a lovely breakfast here with a friend. Eggs Benedict was very nice. Lovely atmosphere, wasn't too busy at 9.30am. Service was a little slow when ordering a second round of drinks but that was the only negative. Staff friendly. Nice shop to mooch around in afterwards.

Food is was incredible. By far the best roast I’ve ever had! The ultimate cauliflower cheese as well was lovely.

When walked in the host was rude and abrupt, we had booked a table and requested a booth when we was taken to our table I asked about the booth that I had requested to be snapped at they are already booked. Then when sitting at our table we was watching 2 ladies with 4 children filling up plates of food then putting them in to take away boxes under the table, and also about 3 full plates of fried chicken wrapped up in tissue stuffing it in to there bags. Shame the food was lovely rest of the team were friendly but the host attitude made you want to leave straight away.

Sunday lunch with young children, We booked for lunch with friends. Location is great, as close to the forest so we managed a walk first. There’s a play area which is great for the children. The outside area is lovely, lots of tables, seating areas and it’s nice and quiet. There’s also a cool tipi area should it rain. The staff were amazing, friendly, fast and very efficient. Food is better than I have experienced before- we were all very happy with our meals. Overall we were all very impressed and enjoyed our food and experience at the owl.

Great roast Turkey with excellent service with a smile

Great food, great service. Grumpy's has a real relaxing feel to the place. I go back often, I can't help myself. Highly recommend

We had a lovely lunch on Saturday. We went with the protein and salad option and they were both packed with flavour. The service was quick and friendly.

My first visit to The Barn, but would visit again, really enjoyed the food especially the dessert!!!

We had a lovely meal last night. The food was delicious and the service was excellent. We were unable to get a taxi home and our waitress Katie who is lovely offered to drive us home! How kind!

We took my dad to celebrate, we absolutely loved the large variety of food even though i couldn’t eat all of them. We loved the ambiance and the service. I’d highly recommend
