The Barn Beefeater - (Near Buckinghamshire, South East)

2 /5 Eugene (GNO): Review: Harvester Milton Keynes – “Fully Loaded Nachos” I recently ordered the Fully Loaded Nachos (£6.80) at The Barn Beefeater Milton Keynes and unfortunately left feeling quite disappointed. The dish arrived on a large plate, but the actual portion of nachos was very small — far from what I’d expect from something described as “fully loaded.” There was only a small handful of tortilla chips, topped with a single dollop each of guacamole, salsa and sour cream, and just the slightest amount of melted cheese. For nearly £7, this didn’t feel like good value for money at all. It looked more like a light snack than a sharer or starter, and I honestly feel I could have gone to another chain nearby and received a much larger, better-loaded portion for the same price or even less. A shame, as I usually enjoy Harvester, but this particular dish didn’t live up to expectations.

5 /5 Rebecca Prout: Lovely meal and catered for a large group last minute yesterday as we got cancelled on July another venue. Lovely staff, we even had our own area so the kids could enjoy too. I had king prawn starter, with sea bass to follow. My child had pasta, with corn on cob and peas, and my partner had fish and chips.

4 /5 Kim White: Had a lovely experience a few days ago for our anniversary Vicki made it quite memorable for us with a lovely atmosphere and conversation they decorated our table nicely for it as requested for our anniversary they definitely did good with the box of chocolates and petals on the table, the food was amazing maybe a bit more cheese sauce on the nachos but nothing major and definitely a good option to add to the steaks would be peppers and mac n cheese as that’s really popular with steaks but overall amazing experience. Coming from someone that has worked for 12 years in hospitality I can tell a good server and how long they’ve had in the background which I was right in predicting how long she’d worked in the industry based on how welcoming and upbeat she was we had a nice conversation with her a few times so she definitely did her job well and hope she gets on well with University. We’ll hopefully be back again in future. The lady that seated us I could tell had probably been working in hospitality for a while as could have been a little more welcoming but not a big deal I know when a servers having a bit of a rough day so hope she was ok also but glad with the overall experience did hope for more understanding of the issue of the 25% off as I did sign up for it but didn’t receive an email and didn’t know about needing a code after 48 hours so maybe that should have been made clearer on the discount to do 48 hours in advance but other than that was a lovely time thanks to Vicki and the great food and drinks. Would have liked my ribeye a little more pink as I like mine rare but was still nice just a bit more medium I think it was but still really nice.

3 /5 Mária Mravcová: I returned to the Barn after couple of years and I was unpleasantly surprised. The menu changed (the favourite meals are gone) so I thought I wont risk anything and decided to order chicked skewer. The amount of meat was shocking, plus there were exactly 2 small pieces of peppers and 2 tiny pieces of onion. I was still hungry after finishing my meal, although I left a bread behind. I came for cooked meal, not bread. Salad on side was nice but again, the tiny portion put me off. Bottomless soft drink for £4 is a rip off as I hadnt had s chance to ask for a refill as waitress was nowhere to be seen. A place I used to visit veery often and which I was speaking high of became so sad and lowered the standards, such a shame. Please bring back Ceasar salad and BIG bowls. You used to be 5 star! Bring it back

5 /5 Lesley Cole: I always enjoy my time at The Barn and last night was no different. Greeted with a smile and friendly attitude. Introduced to our waitress who took our drinks order. Great atmosphere. Lovely staff who made time to speak to us rather than walk on by. Didn’t wait long for food to be served. No complaints with food or service. All round fantastic night.
