Barn Pub and Grill Restaurant, The

Jo (15 September 2008)

Terrible - this place does awful food, my vegetarian lasagne was swimming in oil and tasted of nothing. The burgers were just big chunks of unseasoned grey meat. The Greek salad came with no salad dressing, we had to ask for it at the bar and wished we hadn't, it was disgusting and had a taste that none of us could put our finger on. The bar staff are usually unfriendly and the glasses are not quite clean. This could be a lovely pub, it's got a nice conservatory and good outdoor space, it's such a shame that it's not realising its full potential.

We went with the Times £10 offer and were disappointed with the experience. The olives were watery, the mushroom Stroganoff had large chunks of red and yellow pepper and the sauce was vinegary, perhaps due to the gherkins. The rice was well cooked and we thought that the hot chocolate pudding would save the meal. However, instead of it melting in the middle, it was a dry and crispy bit of sponge covered with what was actually quite nice hot chocolate fudge sauce.
