The Barn Cafe in Chichester

Visited for first time for brunch today. Very light & airy. We all had a full breakfast which was beautifully cooked&nicely presented. Quality ingredients. We all had various requests regarding coffee which were easily accomadated. Staff were very friendly. Would recommend & will go back.

I learned about this restaurant when it was mentioned on a local, community website and, when a chum and I arranged to meet for lunch, I suggested our trying out this new venue, with the proviso that we could go farther afield should we not like the look of it. However, we were NOT disappointed. The staff was wonderfully welcoming, friendly and obliging. As my chum and I like to make a day of it we arrived in time for morning coffee and, our both being unable to resist temptation, we both ordered cake with our coffee. My chocolate fudge cake was absolutely superb, wonderfully moist….and rich! Along with our coffee, we were also given a square of the most delicious homemade shortbread and yet, despite all that indulgence, we were still able to order lunch. I had an incredible fish cake (that was made on the premises) which was on a bed of peas, in a delicious sauce and topped with the most perfectly cooked poached egg. When it was served it looked like a work of art. My chum ordered crispy chicken, which she declared was wonderful. Our post luncheon tea was served in attractive glass teapots and, yet again, came accompanied by yet another square of the shortbread. We will most certainly make return trips. The Barn Cafe is in partnership with an Indian restaurant, next door, that currently only serves evening meals and in which we are hoping to book dinner, in not too distant future.

Stopped off here for a bite of lunch, very dissapointing, terrible panini, deep fried crisps and only just warm hot chocolate!!! Service slow and overall unpleasant lunch. Won't be visiting again.

Amazing atmosphere, food and staff! Would highly recommend the barn breakfast - superb ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ must visit local cafe with staff who can’t do enough for you.

We had Sunday lunch there today. The food and service was excellent. We both had the Roast Beef, it was delicious, beautifully cooked soft and great taste. This was the first time they were doing Sunday lunch and I would highly recommend.
