Bashall Barn

We had been before, so we didn't expect to enjoy it as much as our first visit over 2 years since.. We were wrong! The surroundings were fantastic despite the inclement weather. The staff were very cheerful and friendly, the service could not be faulted, the food was fantastic, and not over priced. We will definitely go again.

I am usually loathe to leave reviews of a place, especially if its not been a pleasant experience - I usually vote with my wallet and not return. However, I feel I should leave my comments. This place is vastly overpriced, has really sub standard service and the food produce isn't really that fresh, and certainly not what you would expect from an above the rest establishment, or one that pertains to be. The 'artisan' feel and approach is simply not transferred into the food served on the plate. It was cold, unappetising and I've actually had better quality in a local Crown carvery pub at about a third of the cost. Staff just aren't attentive, you always feel as though you are causing trouble to ask for anything as they huff and puff away and look so bored and uninterested, its as though they don't actually want you sat there. I had to ask four times for my table to be cleaned and for cutlery to be set out. You almost need a second mortgage for the drinks - how the high prices can be justified is beyond me. The place also stank of revolting cow-pat in the restaurant, probably due to the mucky, half dead looking cows in the barn attached to the kitchens and cafe area. I saw kitchen staff going in and out of a side door into the kitchen area, trudging mud and cow muck inside. When I saw that, I knew I would never return to Bashall Barn to eat. All in all, despite its pretensions, a truly miserable experience.

Bashall Barn has had an amazing extension. The new restaurant is spacious and contemporary in stunning rural surroundings. Whilst dining you can watch the cows being milked in the attached barn, don't worry you cant smell them. I didn't get chance to eat but i definitely will next time.

Amazing leek and potato soup hhhmmmm! in quaint rustic surroundings.

We ate here a week ago and although it was very nice it was expensive and the choice was limited. It was ok for a sandwich and a drink and all the food was locally sourced, there wasn't much for children apart from some ice cream which proved very popular.
