| Food took FOREVER to arrive, starter to main course was 50 minutes, and then the food was cold ( for everyone ) food was returned and re-arrived after a further 25 minutes, it was reasonably busy but other tables that had arrived far later were completing their meal before our mains had arrived. No appology before we left, was a shame as it was our first visit. |

| Just a belated note to thank you and your staff for making my 50th birthday on the 5th May such a memorable occasion. Many of my family had flown in especially for the occasion and were certainly not disappointed with the service or the food. It was everything that my husband i had come to expect from The Barn - fresh vibrant food, excellent service with more than a touch of class but all wrapped up in friendly overtones!
Thank you so much for the wonderful cake the remainder of which was enjoyed later that night at home with a good glass of champagne!
So thank you once again for all your hard work in making it memorable and i will certainly be recommending The Barn as a venue not only for a delicious meal but as a place to celebrate those important dates.
With warm regards,
|

| Christmas set menu of just three choices per course was too limited - the starter I had came up cold (the mushrooms) and the noodles were inedible. Main course (Salmon) was very nice. Desert (Creme Brule) likewise very nice. Staff were lovely. |

| Would've love to award the barn with 5 stars,but if waiters forget simple stuff like drinks,sugar and to bring the bill after being asked twice,full points can't be awarded to what i think is to be considered a real gem of a place! |
