Very Nice, Friday, 09 October 2009 Written by snugglybuggly - View all my reviews - Top 10 Reviewer The barn itself is a beautiful interior and creates a nice and interesting atmosphere. During the times I have eaten there, there has been a steady flow of diners, which was fortunate as the space is quite large and I can imagine if there were not many people dining, it could feel a bit empty. We have always been seated in the central area and I prefer this to the sides as it is light and not draughty. The food I have eaten was very nice. Portion sizes were moderate; I could imaagine that they may not be big enough for some people, but were fine for a lunch. Taste-wise, I really liked the field mushroom served with stilton and salad. The dressing on the salad was good (not too acidic) and the field mushroom/cheese combination proved very pleasant. I agree with the other poster who commented about the lack of bread as I do think the addition of a basket of bread or a roll each would have been a nice complement to the starter. I have had the salmon fillet and it was reasonable in size and tasted nice, but was not overly adventurous - I could have easily cooked it myself. I agree that I would not be overly happy to pay for the addition of side dishes, so the lunch time menu suits me as the meals I have selected came as a whole with vegetables/carbs included. Desserts are really delicious - definitely worth paying for if you have room. Also, the coffee served was a nice blend, which I have not always found to be the case in other restaurants. The toilets are decorated in a pleasant fashion and are clean. Parking is very good as there are plenty of spaces to choose from. I think in terms of value for money, the set menu I have eaten from is good. I will definitely eat at The Barn again in the future.

Two time diners, Wednesday, 09 July 2008 Written by Matt Excell Both times have been great experiences and, though the food was not quite as enjoyable on our last visit, I am willing to give them a pass as it was Valentines Day and they were using a truncated menu to help speed up the service. The ambience of the place is the real draw for my money as the building, furnishing and atmosphere have obviously had a tremendous amount of thought put into them. The food is definitely great value for money and will leave you feeling full up, even if the portion sizes do not appear to be particularly large. A phenomenal dining experience
