Visited the barn last night for my birthday. What an amazing meal we had. The flavours combinations were sublime. Excellent attention to detail. The staff were very attentive without being in your face. Would love to return again.

The Barn is my favourite restaurant. I like everything about the venue, staff and of course the foodParking: Never had a problem finding a parking space

Food was really good, which you would expect. Very tasty, but am sure the portions could be somewhat larger. When your paying those prices, you don't want to come away hungry. Even though the service was excellent, I am not a lover of the service charge being added to the bill, I would rather the customer decide what tip they want to give. Overall a nice experience, but could be better.

A great meal with excellent service throughout. We were given a voucher for moor hall at Christmas which we were unable to use within the year time frame given. We rang up before the voucher expired and the team kindly extended the voucher for us. We arrived shortly after our booking at a few minutes past 6 and unfortunately due to a busy day our table wasn't ready. We were told to wait downstairs in the lobby area. This wasn't the greatest start, but been in hospitality myself, know that these things happen. We were quickly put at ease as we were told our table wouldn't be long and we're brought a complimentary glass of champagne which was excellent. Once into the restaurant the food was amazing as expected with all courses been superb. The sommelier was also excellent and the bottle of wine we had was amazing. The whole experience was excellent and hope to visit again.

2nd visit to The Barn. 1st visit was ALa Carter menu. Beautifully presented, delicious food. 2nd visit was for Sunday lunch with friends. Excellent food, staff lovely. Set in very nice grounds. Thanks to our son and daughter in law for vouchers for our birthdays last year. Looking forward to returning for Sunday lunch again in the future

Visited the barn to celebrate a family members milestone Birthday. A wonderful dining experience from start to end. Food was incredible, whilst the staff were knowledgable and went above and beyond to ensure we had a special experience.

We arrived 10 minutes late for our booking after an horrendous journey but this didn’t initially seem to be a problem. Given the drinks menu but not the food menu-as obviously their intention is to milk money from customers. Made our order and the courses weren’t very quick arriving but this wasn’t a problem until later. When ordering desserts my wife was told she couldn’t order a soufflé as it takes 15 minutes to cook and we would have to vacate our table soon. She wasn’t happy but ordered something different and we ordered teas/coffees at this stage as well.More than 17 minutes later our desserts arrived and a bit later the teas/coffees. Just after the drinks arrived we were told that they would need the table back in 5 minutes but we weren’t offered anywhere else to drink them. The waiter had been quite superior in attitude all evening but this spoiled an expensive meal for the five of us. I totally accept we were late but the starters were very late arriving and with better service there would have been no issue.Left with a bitter taste which wasn’t due to the food.
Stunning meal... now I know why Grace Dent left I'm a Celebrity !! It was to come here !! Flavours were incredible and my Beef Tartare Starter was absolutely delicious !! but the Apple Millefeuille dessert was absolutely the most best tasting dessert I have ever eaten in my life !! Light , flaky and super tasty !! and personally I am not a dessert person but had to give this accolade here....Don't hesitate book now for that special meal ...? highly recommended

Excellent start to the meal. I had duck parfait starter, my favourite dish. I enjoyed my cod main. The Sunday roast style main was alot of food. Glazed carrots were amazing. Some of it was salty. Not balanced if you're looking for something to cut through the richness.Childrens menu wasn't good. Chicken goujons were dry, tastless coating, no veg or salad on the plate, I regretted trying it. Spaghetti bolognese was salty. My son just picked out the spaghetti.It ended well for the kids who loved their desserts.For me and my husband it went downhill from the main. Until this point we would have returned.We ended up with 2 issues. 1 was how thirsty we ended up, the other was with one particular member of staff.Now, this was our first time visiting the The Barn, we got it wrong and thought it was a tasting menu, that's what we're used to in other places, so we ordered 3 courses at the start. Half way through the main we were getting full and didn't want dessert. Luckily they came back and asked if we wanted dessert, phew! So we said no, kids said yes, we ordered tea and coffee instead, the hot drink snacks are amazing. Unfortunately, by this point we're getting very thirsty, the kind water can't quench. Clearly the salty dishes were kicking in. We were still thirsty hours afterwards.When the bill came, we were billed for what we asked for on arrival, not for what we ended up having, had they plated the cheese board I would have paid, but we made this change in good time, I even pointed out we had ordered on arrival but were too full and I apologised for changing our minds. Not a problem for anyone at this stage. Our nice waiter obviously had to escalate the bill correction to snr staff. Wow, she wasn't happy. She needed a manager to authorise it. While she's stood waiting for him she kept giving our table the side eye, lol. The new bill was still wrong, I didn't say anything because it had taken ages to come back and was clearly a huge hassle for them. The lady who redid the bill and came to take payment stood there giving me looks, held a tight lipped 'smile', generally came across as extremely rude and unprofessional, and for some reason she didn't speak to us. I wasnt sure of contactless limit so I asked, she didnt say a single word, just kept her lips tightly closed, slowly reached out her hand, took my card out of my hand, put it in the slot, she really didn't say a single word the whole time ?, it was weird and rude. The same lady took our order on arrival with a smile and without any communication issues, she just turned into a mean girl at the end and couldn't bring herself to utter a single word to us.Honestly, we wouldn't let rude staff stop us from going back, because why should we miss out because of them, the real deal breaker was how some of the dishes were not as good as they should have been, children's menu didn't go down well, and we just don't want to be that thirsty again.
