Had a lovely brunch at the barn. Yummy food, I wish I ordered extra salmon because it’s very nice.Attentive staff, spacious, clean & dog friendly place.

Where do I start? 20 minutes to take a drinks order, another 20 minutes for drinks to arrive - it was super busy but I would expect atleast a tap water within 40 minutes of being seated when paying premium. Not 'allowed' to order my food with the drinks (?). When i mentioned after 40 minutes that we were still waiting for drinks was told I had only waited 20 minutes for my drink, correct, what about the initial 20 minute wait to even have our order taken?? I asked why no water was offered?? No water offered because they didn't have enough glasses for everybody and they couldnt have the staff all getting water at once for people because it was so busy back there (what?????)2 other tables approaching us asking if they could use our menu because they hadn't been offered one, by the time we were allowed to order we couldnt even remember what we'd chosen. Had to then wait for another menu to be brought over.Told the wait is because a large group (18 people) arrived, so large groups are accommodated at the expense of others experiences?? If you cannot offer minimal service (tap water) at full capacity/peak times reduce your heads, get more staff, buy more glasses or introduce a booking system for large groups. Abysmal service today which leaves a bitter taste when paying £20 for breakfast.After an hours wait, the food came out wrong (asked for sauce to be on the side as opposed to over the food) didnt send it back as was just frustrated and hungry - it was tasty and the only redeeming quality of this experience.Really disappointed because this was my go too for brunch, and each time the experience is getting worse and worse.Peak times and busy periods is not an excuse to give terrible service. I won't be returning.

Awesome hidden gem near to Heybridge basin, amongst Chigborough lakes. Fantastic brunch menu, beautiful barn and friendly staff. The food is absolutely delicious using local produce. Will definitely return to try burger and lobster one weekend!

Really friendly, dog friendly also. Eat at the Black Pig farm cafe a few times within our stay, food was consistently good. The chicken burger with spiced fry’s was a favourite, Mac & cheese was to die for!Highly recommend.

Quaint cafe, nice stop off for a coffee after walking around the lake. The kitchen closes at 2PM on a Saturday so ensure you are there before this to taste their cooked menu.

Went for breakfast on a weekday. Was surprised with portion size and quality for the price! Very affordable and lovely atmosphere.
