"The first time is alwsys a trial by comparison. My wife 's friends had recommended The Barn and our visit had to be good: it was her birthday good people. The ambience was quite clinical, and the investment obvious, this relative newcomer had a lot to prove.......but one massive incentive success. The footfall in the area is certainly well heeled so let the fight commence, especially as the festive season approaches. Sending the Hereford aged Sirloin back to the kitchen I asked for medium rare but received rare] invoked a focus with a touch of humour. Enter a fresh meal with a succulent steak cooked to perfection with taste to match, and a side of steak, the fragment which I sliced off to trial. The requisite brownie was quasi experimental, which I liked and the bill a reasonable £86. A potential new gem in leafy Meriden, an early Christmas present maybe?"

"My daughter and I visited this establishment for breakfast. In a past life it was a takeaway sandwich establishment, and to a large extent it still is but of a very high standard. We both had the Full English Breakfast Board which consists of a large Lashford sausage, Bromsgrove bacon, Black pudding (not for either of us), Free Range Eggs, Tomatoes, baked beans, mushrooms , toast and butter. I had an Americana and my daughter a tea. The food was excellent. Looking at the menu, the pricefor the breakfast was £8.95 which by today's standard is quite expensive, with the coffee at £2.25, and tyhe tea at £1.60. When we came to pay we were informed that there was a surcharge of 20% as we had eaten in. This was not told to us when ordering. The total bill which as far as we were concerned was £21.75 climbed to a dizzy £26.10. Some price for a lovely breakfast but sat on metal chairs in a tiny unit. I found the breakfast to be one of the best that I have had in years, but the price a bit steep and the lack of clarity re pricing annoying."

"This restaurant is always bustling with customers, which is a great sign. They offer a wide selection of delicious quiches, croissants, and light meals. My children particularly enjoy the gingerbread men from this place. I often visit with friends for a quick meal. The coffee is also excellent! I appreciate having a taste of France and Italy right in our neighborhood. The service is takeout, and the meal type is lunch."

"I booked on the line, which was simple, but could be easier. Maybe the use of my phone was not a good idea. the day and the time were available. we were met by a beautiful maitre de who sat on a beautiful table. he was polite, friendly and helped to choose our drinks and meals. eating was extraordinary. I had the whispers and the juice was very garlic. delicious. partner had fish and chips. they offered garden beans because he doesn't like muddy heels. we have not been rushing. the restaurant was busy, but it felt not tormented. a beautiful meal in a beautiful environment"

"I'm glad it's not only me! I visited the NEC and ate here back in Feb 2023 and had a really great meal. So when I returned on Tuesday I thought I should go back...I really wish I had gone somewhere else! The service was shoddy, we weren't checked on once we had received our meals. I paid extra to upgrade to fresh egg pasta, but what I received defo wasn't fresh pasta it tasted like it was out of a packet! I had the prawn chilli linguine. I received only 4 prawns on top of the pasta! When I mentioned it to the waitress she just dismissed it. We felt a bit neglected and rushed out of the restaurant, even though it wasn't busy. It was like a canteen experience, the food was served quickly and with no love and attention."
