About The BARN London
The BARN London is a sibling-run cafe in London, at 60 Holloway Rd. Breakfast is served all day, and the barn breakfast anchors a brunch menu that runs to egg dishes and a frittata. Avocado on toast and grilled sandwiches fill out the savoury side, and the cakes are homemade. Coffee comes from a barista, with tea, fresh juice and a matcha latte also on the drinks menu. At the back, a bright room has a good number of seats, including a few big tables for groups, and it welcomes dogs.

Customer Review Summary
Reviewers most often single out the brunch food, with the halloumi breakfast, the pastrami sandwich, the grilled goat's cheese, the frittata and the scrambled eggs on toast all named, and portions described as generous and filling. Coffee comes close behind, with the cappuccino and fresh juice praised, and takeaway cake slices get a mention. Staff are repeatedly called friendly and attentive, and a few reviewers call the prices reasonable, while one finds the juice a bit expensive. Dog-friendly seating and ample space also come up. The complaints are smaller. One reviewer found the matcha latte badly prepared, with a blobby mess of powder stuck on the spoon, and the flat white unimpressive. That visit also had no one checking back after the drinks arrived. Another notes that the single toilet sometimes causes a queue. Several reviewers describe returning repeatedly, one after years of visits and another twice in a four day stay.

“We really enjoyed the food here! The grilled goat’s cheese was unique while the frittata and english breakfast was done nicely. We appreciated the generous portions and balance of fresh salad on the side.”
