Fantastic food, service & ambience

Christine

Lunch with the GD. Had to wait for the RM to return but she was working at the cash desk inside on a busy Sat lunch service. Very friendly greeting. Had to ask for the Children's menu, I had the Quiche special. It was ok but a bit bland. Too many potatoes for me but tasty , small dressed salad which was ok. Good selection of drinks. Very busy but service was good and pleasant . Noisy as little to absorb the sound. Think I won't go for lunch again but at breakfast time it is great especially if you can sit outside.

As always, we had a great experience at The Barn Cafe. The breakfast was excellent and it was hard to choose from such a varied and interesting menu. Can't wait to visit again soon.

Food has always been good although overpriced. Unfortunately today we felt the food was extremely overpriced. Buddha bowl with chicken £20 and im sure theses bowls have got smaller, not a substantial portion. The garden salad really was a joke, it came on what I would describe as a slightly larger than average side plate and the salad certainly didn't fill it. With the feta cheese it was £17.50 for a basic salad that would have made a large starters!

We always enjoy our visit to the Barn Cafe. The Barn Breakfast was absolutely delicious and can highly recommend. Service can be a bit slow but we’re never in a rush. However we haven’t been for a month or so and the service had definitely improved

As per usual on a very busy Sunday morning the service was excellent with polite members of staff. The food was up to its highest standards and quite swift even though it was busy. A very pleasant morning. Thanks.
