We very much enjoyed our Sunday Roast ,we found out too late that we could have had a smaller plate portion, we were all unable to finish our plate,all being very elderly, The vegetables were very fresh would be nice to have a small dish of cauliflower cheese added within in the roast, we paid extra to have this as it is a favourite and that was lovely,the beef was a bit hard to cut but delicious,we usually like dessert but we were too full, We look forward to our next treat.

Pleasant atmosphere in The Barn, family friendly, we had a 1 year old at our table and staff were very accommodating. I ordered the quiche but was disappointed, the rest of the meal was ok but there were whole mushrooms in a small individual quiche which made the inside watery and tasteless. But everyone else enjoyed their meal, including the 1 year old.

I’ve had many lovely meals here but the coconut broth with tofu on Sunday was disappointing. Not a great taste (not bad but poor compared to others I’ve tasted) but very poor value at £13.95 plus £5 for the tofu for something which is little more than starter size. Usually the food is good, the service is always great but I can’t recommend this particular dish as value for money
