The Barn Cafe Dorset - Poole

Visited for lunch today and arrived just before 12pm, the place was already buzzing! Despite how busy it was, the hostess was very helpful and managed to get us a lovely table.

Service started off a little slow, but we got our order in and I’m so glad I tried their meat quiche - it came highly recommended and definitely lived up to the praise. Absolutely delicious!

Ordering a coffee after our meal was a bit tricky, as it took a while to get the staff's attention and then another wait for it to arrive. That said, all the staff were friendly and accommodating throughout, and it’s clear the café is popular for a reason.

Looking forward to returning, and next time I’ll be sure to try one of the many amazing cakes they had on offer!✨🍰

What a joy to find an amazing tea menu including a choice of decaf teas - I had Kenya Decaf. Best of all, a large array of gluten-free cakes and melt in the mouth GF Brownie (Caramel Salted) I've ever had! Wish it was nearer, it would become a regular haunt.

Service superb, ambiance quirky with charming use of parasols suspended from the ceiling and little boutique type shops too. Great way to start my holiday break.

Food was reasonably priced, generously portioned, and high quality. Waiting staff were very friendly. Only reason for giving atmosphere 4 out of 5 is that the doorbell that goes off every time food is ready is very annoying 😂

We were looking for somewhere for breakfast as we were staying locally and found this little gem... Although we missed breakfast we had a lovely lunch instead... Service was good and our waitress was lovely and brought us a blanket as we sat outside as it was busy we sat outside... Great little place 👌

A fantastic place hidden away in a peaceful location. The building and decor is great, rustic and cosy. The staff are incredibly friendly and welcoming. The food tastes fresh, with good quality ingredients and well presented.

Popped in for lunch on a weekend. Staff were very accomodating with our dog and super friendly. Decent menu and food presented beautifully, especially for the price! Our only issue was a distinct lack of chicken when we paid extra for it in a Caesar salad. Otherwise, highly recommended.

This is a lovely little place with such a friendly and welcoming atmosphere. My friend and I both enjoyed our meals and they had loads of options for us (low cal).

Very disappointed with my recent visit to the Barn Cafe.
Usually The Barn Cafe is our go to location for lunch as a family- previously been excellent value for money and had a wide variety on the menu. On our recent visit on Saturday, they had a new menu and have reduced the amount of options. I ordered the chicken wrap and the portion was significantly smaller than previously and it was extremely dry! No sauce in the wrap despite menu stating it would. My partner also had a sandwich which was very bland and could’ve made a nicer sandwich at home. Unfortunately will now not return.
