Service excellent as usual- coffee lovely Had Cinnamon toast with maple syrup For me personally I felt it was a rather thick slice & needed to be toasted more as was a bit soggy to eat I wondered if it was made by dipping bread in egg as quite yellow inside but flavour of it was nice

Yesterday was the first time we have eaten at your resurant and it was a most enjoyable experience. Great buzz and atmosphere with the other diners and the food was excellent which included local vegatable produce. I've told my friend to give it a go. Thanks

Our father passed away last Thursday, so we decided to come to his favorite gardening centre to have lunch and pick some plants to remember him by. After placing our order, my partner and son ordered the burgers. They specifically ordered them plain. Just cheese and paid the extra for Bacon. All ordered and we waited. It was quite busy so we understood it wasn't going to be quick. The food eventually arrived. My partners burger came with no bacon, my sons came with everything on it..lettuce, tomatoes, burger sauce...everything we ordered not to have and again no bacon. After calling someone over to explain this is not what was ordered, they took the food away It took so long to remake, that the rest of the party had finished our meal and then had to sit and wait for the other food to arrive. It was such a sad day for us, and unfortunately wasn't made easier by having to sit and wait for the wrong food to be remade.

Enjoyed a very relaxed and delicious lunch with a friend. The environment and tables were clean and service was attentive and friendly. Food arrived within a short time and was presented nicely, with homemade vegetable tart, a fresh salad and beautiful buttery new potatoes. There was no pressure to vacate the table and the whole experience was pleasant, and just as I've always found it...... I'm a regular customer!

As always the Barn did not disappoint- a lovely afternoon having the most delicious asparagus risotto with tarragon oil and wild mushrooms .. better than any London restaurant. A beautifully curated floor of gorgeous accessories for the home. It is guaranteed happiness all under one roof … I only wish they would open one closer to Chelmsford … amazing !!!
