"Used to be good, but had a poor experience last night. We went as a family of four and had a meal in the left bank restaurant. The table service was quite poor and the bill had a £13 service charge slapped on automatically. The total bill was £126 plus tip, making £139. I left £130 truly believing it was sufficient under the circumstances. The waiter came back twice saying it wasn't enough money. I explained once that the service charge was optional and that I have left enough including an appropriate tip. This was rejected and the waiter again insisted I pay the full amount as it was not enough. I explained again about the tip. He came back yes again to query how I would make up the shortfall in the bill. I was forced to stand my ground and insist in front of everyone that I wasn't paying the full tip. Automatically slapping on £13 tip for poor service is one thing. To then repeatedly question and confront a customer over not paying the full tip in front of everyone is quite another thing altogether. I left the restaurant feeling both humiliation at the confrontation but also annoyance knowing that actually I was right. The tip is optional, discretionary, and voluntary. Putting it automatically on the bill could be seen as a helpful reminder, thank you, if you want to see it that way, but repeatedly insisting it is paid and that I have made a mistake in leaving a smaller tip and ignoring my explanation is just plain wrong."

"We went for a pre booked meal.The table opposite was served starters and our drinks order was taken,The drinks took several tries to get it right. The cocktails tasted like gone off water and we were then told they were from a premixed draught pump! We eventually got to order.The table opposite had all 3 courses as we repeatedly asked when to expect our food.We didn’t receive answers at first then were told we were next. After waiting over an hour we asked again.We had already said how hungry and tired the children were and were then told it would be another 25 minutes.It was getting too late for the children to eat and we had no confidence we would ever get food. They said it was due to having too many people coming in asking for tables.Nomone else was eating,but maybe they were waiting too.No idea what the chef was do8ng although we saw him out in the car park as we left. We walked out at that point and they ruined a family evening and children were very tired next day due to the late bedtime after we finally found some fast food for them."

"I 've been going here since it opened. It is still very nice but the prices have got to a daft level. Anyway, the good stuff the marquee structure erected in covid times is now a semi permanent affair which has been enclosed it is lovely. The staff are all well trained and provide great service. There were four of us having just a simple 2 course lunch. Bread and dipping oils were served fabulous bread. Starters Mrs had a superb mushroom soup, I had 'duck pressing ' a bit dry and not enough quince, Eggs Royale £21! and something else. Mains 2 fillet steaks £52 each , some cheese dish apparently yummy and I had a burger £28! . A couple of bottles of sauvignon blanc. No puddings. Bill with a 10% discount was over £350. Nuts. We had a nice time, but The Barn prices are beyond what it is worth. That said, we are local, so of course we 'll go again!"

"I had visited the restaurant a few years ago and been disappointed, but everything was excellent this time. The service was very friendly and efficient. The food was served at the right moment and was very good quality. Bear in mind this is an excellent quality steak house and so there is little apart from steak on the menu (there was a chicken dish). The choice of wines was reasonably full and the wine we chose very good. The tables were placed far enough apart that one didn't feel cramped, despite the setting being like comfortable old pub style large lounge. Despite the warning on the booking site that you were only allocated one and a half hours per sitting, there was no pressure to hurry the meal I suggested this warning be removed from the booking site as it could put people off. Anyway, thoroughly recommended."

"Popped in today at 6pm with my dad, now I used to go to this restaurant with my dad, friends and family all the time and the two male waiters /bar tenders were fab. Today I showed up without a booking and there was only...one couple at the table. I asked if they could fit us in bearing in mind it was just about to be 6pm and they said they had no availability bearing in mind the restaurant was empty, they said if I had a reservation which I said I didn’t. Anyway we left, going outside I said to my dad that it was weird they never have treated me that way before so we quickly went online to book a table. What a coincidence there was a table available at 6:15 and 6:30pm for two people. Extremely disappointed and won’t be going back the girls attitudes were abysmal, pitty the waiter guy was at another table I bet he would have sat us down at a table straight away and welcomed us with a friendly smile like he always did. Won’t be going back and very very poor attitude and service from the 3 girls at the entrance and bar. I guess they didn’t fancy working today."
