Customer Review Summary
Reviewers most often single out the halloumi and pear burger, a vegetarian option praised for its real raspberry jam and its salty and sweet balance. Close behind are the lamb, classic and crispy fried chicken burgers, described as juicy and flavourful with fresh buns and crisp salad inside. Sides draw their own praise, including the onion rings, halloumi fries, cheesy chips with nacho style cheese, seasoned chips and jerk tenders, along with a peach ice tea and a milkshake. Staff are repeatedly called friendly and welcoming, and one reviewer mentions tissues and wipes on every table. The space is small, with seating for around 10 to 12, and one finds it cosy. Value and generous kids meals come up too. The one critical account describes orders arriving mixed up and at different times, with the problem shrugged off when raised, and that reviewer would not recommend it for anyone with allergies. Several others say they would return, and one reviewer wishes for a grilled chicken burger on the menu.

“Quite simply the best burger I’ve ever had the pleasure of eating. We ordered the crispy chicken and classic lamb burgers and both were so succulent. Every single element of the burger tasted so fresh. In fact, every element of the meal tasted fresh! The chips were perfectly crisp and not at all overdone. Every sauce complemented the food. The jerk tenders were saucy and flavourful. The selection of drinks is so varied that there’s a choice for everyone no matter the preference; I must say the peach ice tea tasted incredibly refreshing. Moving onto the experience as a whole, from when we walked in, to when we left, the staff always had a smile on their face and genuinely seemed happy to help. A rarity that this restaurant has is tissues and wipes available for every single table - so convenient! Without a doubt, a must eat - so worth it!”

“Had a great visit to The Barn. The burger was really tasty and cooked well, and the milkshake was excellent too. The staff were friendly, attentive, and provided great service throughout. A nice atmosphere and good food. I’d happily visit again and would recommend it to others.”

“My friends and I started our afternoon looking for a new burger spot to try out and we found the barn. We read some reviews and had high expectations. Service was sub par our orders came mixed up which all came out at different times and when prompted about the problem it was shrugged off and dismissed. I wouldn’t recommend if you have allergies. I hope I have a better experience when i come back to try more of the menu.”

“This was one of the best burgers I have had in a loooooong time. Juicy and flavourful (and the sauce and bun added to the flavour). The chips were seasoned well and I loved the signature sauce that came with it. Very reasonably priced for the amount you get. Service was friendly and helpful too. Will definitely be coming back!”
