My wife and I went The Barn last night for a celebratory birthday dinner. I must say the we were more than a little disappointed.

The starters were fine, you cannot really go to wrong with deep fried brie.

Both main courses were more than a little disappointing. My wife's lamb had about an inch of fat on it. There was more fat than meat. I had the braised steak, the meat was chewy and had not flavour to it what so ever.

Then we get to dessert !!!!!!!! where do I start. My wife had a baileys cheesecake, although it was homemade the base was a digestive power, there was no crunch to it and the rest of the pudding tasted like whipped cream. I had the sticky toffee pudding with a butterscotch sauce, what a joke this was. The butterscotch sauce was just butter and a bit of syrup. The pudding part of my dessert was sitting in flapjack mix but without the oats.

This meal cost £65.00 including a bottle of wine. Needless to say we will not be going back there in a hurry.

Great pub, lovely food, good quality and reasonable prices.

Really nice garden area, but need to get there early for a seat.

Not very child friendly (No chaning area, highchairs or kids meals) but enough space outside to leave a pushchair and for kids to sit up.

Good choice of food, lovely home made burgers, large quantities of food too!

Staff not very welcoming though!

Visited the Barn last night with a group of friends and the service received made me feel strong enough to register with this website and leave comments.

I assume the bar was understaffed, assumedly a management problem, because the staff were continuously rude and stressed and couldn't wait to clear the pub out early. The empty glasses were all piled up on the bar to be washed up which they didn't have time to do and we were regularly interrupted by flustered staff telling us we were in their way.

We won't be visiting this venue again in a hurry.

I've rated the bar 3 simply for the pleasant garden area.

Was okay - nothing special. Bit antiseptic and a place to meet before moving on elsewhere. Can see the outdoor area getting busy i9n the summer.

Fantastic food, nice big bar. Lovely traditional pub. Bar staff a bit dim.
