The Barn

I only wish that we had known about this place before now! Here for breakfast with my wife and 2 year old and it did not disappoint. Food was top notch with little wait time. To be fair it was quiet at the time but was starting to fill up by the time we left at 11:30am. Surprised by the prices as well, I've paid much more for much less in similar establishments recently. Delighted we have found this little gem, will not be long before the next visit.

Visited yesterday at the start of kids holidays on a bright sunny Sunday afternoon, so we knew it was going to be busy. We just managed to get in the car park at the rear fortunately. There was a small queue to be seated and the host was a friendly guy with plenty of enthusiasm and true to his word he had us seated in well under the 15mins he'd quoted. The wait for food after ordering on our mobile was a little longer than we'd hoped however. And here is my only real negative, because you're ordering on your phone the human interaction part is limited now. And I can see why they'd go this route, but also being sat tucked away in the corner it felt like there was never an opportunity to chase up our food order. It creates a slightly weird atmosphere for me. And the fact that all the staff you come across look about 12yrs old and have zero personality, again this is understandable for a business, but this is what I like about my favourite eating establishments, they have staff with character and personality and common sense. Not one of the young staff we came across had anything to say or ask or the gumption to take away anything empty, like when we got dessert, the large empty plates were left behind. Weird and slightly frustrating. This being said the food was delicious but a bit cold, particularly the Sunday roasts. I would still visit again with this knowledge and lowered expectations.

I met my friend here at the cafe. There's such a huge choice on the menu! And a menu of waffles, icecream etc. I ordered a decaf cappuccino and a nutella waffle. I only ordered coffee because their tea is loose leaf, and no one, wherever I go, can make a good brew with loose leaf! So to be on the safe side, I ordered cappuccino. I'm no coffee expert, but my friend and I agreed it wasn't a cappuccino! It was a latte. Tasted fine so I didn't complain. The waffle wasn't as nice as I expected. It was hard - like when things get heated through, particularly in a microwave, and end up tough. Certainly didn't seem fresh off the waffle iron! Took me ages to cut and chew through it. I'll not bother with one of these again! So, yes, a little disappointing. It all looked so delicious and well presented. Exit through the gift shop too.

Afternoon tea with the wife , we were placed on a table not quite to our liking so asked to move , this was no problem at all , you certainly get value for money , the menu is simple and nit over complicated , the sandwiches and cakes were fresh , unlimited tea and coffee and very tasty cocktails , the staff were very welcoming and attentive , we even took some home because there was so much , wonderful job and thank you

This is an oasis in paradise, the surrounding's and other little shops in the area are lovely but this shop has a fantastic Restaurant with a separate WALLINGS Ice Cream bar , then there is a massive section of pottery, cards, interesting stuff and Good Gifts. Around the back next to the Large Car Park is a Garden Centre, it was busy with visitors in all it's areas so I assume it's popular

everytime i visit here, the food is always to the same standards. the club sandwich is my ultimate go-to and it never disappoints. the coleslaw is gorgeous and everything is well presented with great portion sizes. the prices are good for the quantity and quality of the food. i always leave feeling like i’m going to burst. the ice cream counter has many options (inc vegan/dairy free) and tastes amazing, i recommend the apple pie ice cream. the staff are lovely and very friendly. the gift shop is always fun to walk through and i never leave empty handed. i love this place and of course will return!
