    Always lovely to visit The Barn Kitchen. Food was delicious with fresh, local ingredients. Restaurant was a little quiet so it was slightly lacking in atmosphere but otherwise a pleasant lunch experience.

    Bubble & squeak not traditional, just chunks/cubes of root veg mixed with crème freche, not crispy as advertised, be aware if ordering & eggs on top undercooked, had to send back to the kitchen. Service polite but slow.

    Was an unnecessary waiting time to get seated because the ‘hostess’ was just taking her sweet time. When we did make it to the front of the queue she didn’t even seat us, like she had everyone else, just pointed to our table. The barn breakfast was disappointing, snotty eggs, underdone bacon, overcooked rosti, cold beans, cold toast. The tables were so close you couldn’t get up or down without having to disturb neighbouring tables. We wanted to order another round of drinks and cake but no one came to clear outer table. Eventually we just left, pretty sure we could have left without paying the bill as no attention was being paid to us.

    Had booked for early breakfast on 22 October 2023. Service was very efficient and friendly. Our breakfast arrived on very hot plates however we found that the food itself was luke warm. It was obvious that the breakfast had been sitting on a hot plate for a while before being served? We really like The Barn Kitchen but we like our food to be very hot too!

    Having not visited since the pandemic (and well before the Barn Kitchen was opened) this was a special lunch celebrating our wedding anniversary. The team in the Barn couldn't have been nicer, making specific mention of the special occasion regularly! Service was immaculate with special mention to Jo and Amy our lovely servers. Food was, as expected, great with high quality local ingredients, freshly made with fantastic presentation and generous portions. The beef brisket burger and cheese and onion tart were wonderful - and the fries were made with real potatoes. No frozen chips here! The scotch egg small plate starter and chocolate brownie dessert finished off a great experience. Thank you to one and all for a memorable visit - we must make sure that we don't leave it so long to the next time

    the food was average and very overpriced! my eggs benedict - eggs weren’t runny, muffin was stale, bacon was over cooked and barely any hollandaise (had to ask for more). burger was £17 for an average burger and fries…

    One of the best and most delicious vegan afternoon teas we've had to date and by far better than any vegan afternoon tea we've had in a number of London's fancy hotels. Lovely atmosphere and excellent service. Highly recommend and will defo be back again soon...thank you 👍

    We enjoyed every aspect of our first visit so much that we went back again three days later. The food was fresh, tasty and excellent; the service that little bit more special than being just friendly and efficient: and the ambience exceptional. The Barn Kitchen can certainly be very busy at peak periods but every effort is made to find everyone a table, even without a booking although this is recommended, and to explain why there might be a delay in taking orders and providing service because of the large number of customers.

    We were a bit early for lunch but made welcome all the same, lovely coffee while we waited! Lunch was flat breads, one with goats cheese and the other tomato basil and mozzarella …..both were delicious! We were not rushed and would definitely return. Very noisy inside for breakfast/ brunch but quieter for lunch. Young staff are great! Friendly, helpful and definitely have a sense of humour! I think needed for this kind of work.

    An excellent location and consistent with everything it has to offer. Food always good quality ingredients. On this occasion fried eggs slightly undercooked and poached overdone but this is a minor point because the dishes are really fresh and tasty. Missed a few side orders but came out quickly when this was pointed out. It is the service, however, that makes this venue stand out. Always friendly and personable, while keeping an eye on everything without being intrusive. A great local “go to” place on our shortlist.

    Excellent service as usual. All the staff are wonderful at The Barn Kitchen. The food was tasty and beautifully presented. The grilled prawns are completely delicious but more focaccia is needed to make a more substantial lunch (& to mop up all the lovely juices).
