I did the dinner buffet & wasn’t impressed with a lot of the food. A few items were delicious, like the meatloaf & homemade bread. Some items we could tell weren’t fresh & several items had no flavor. I didn’t think it was worth the price on this particular day, for me anyway. I will go back to get the salad wagon on the top floor but I’m not sure I would get the dinner buffet again. The staff is very friendly & efficient. The decor inside & the grounds are beautiful so it was worth the drive. The place is very clean. Some food might not be what one person prefers but someone else may love it, so don’t let my review of the food deter you from visiting. Salad bar was great with lots of choices & the price for buffet does include a drink, but I didn’t realize that. If you get a drink it makes it worth the price more, but I got water.

We have went here for years! Very unique restaurant with lots of fun stuff to look at. Big meeting rooms available. The pond is full of ducks and there are some cute shops in the other buildings on the property. The salad bar is amazing. On the weekends they have a full buffet that is delicious. You are also still able to order from the menu if you prefer. Highly recommend.

We always have a great experience at The Barn Restaurant! The food is delicious & the salad bar (wagon) is out of this world! The ingredients are always fresh, and this is the largest salad bar I have ever seen!

This was a great place to have a late lunch and not pay an arm and leg for all of us. We did the all you can eat buffet for $ 20 for adults, 15 and older, and under 15 is a buck for each year – so a 9 year old is $9. The buffet was well stocked, great variety of salad items, main course and deserts. Beverages included. The staff was excellent, well staffed, fast at getting our drinks and keeping them all topped off. The food bars were clean and all items kept stocked and the overall room was clean and orderly. The decor inside is rustic and fun, lots to see. Outside they have a big pond that is stocked with Koi fish and a whole bunch of Ducks that you can hand feed with the food from their wildlife vending machine that takes quarters. Overall a fun place to check out and enjoy. I highly recommend this place to all!!!

We planned a dinner for a large party of 19 to celebrate a birthday. We arrived at around 4:00 on a Saturday and found the restaurant to be very accommodating even though they don’t take reservations. We were all seated at a long table. The wait staff was top notch. Our drink orders were taken quickly and we were directed to the buffet. Most of us started by building a salad from the extensive salad bar and this was the bright spot of the dinner. After a sampling of salad, I headed to the hot bar to find a good selection of meats and chicken as well as the usual home style buffet sides of mashed potatoes & green beans. The hot dishes were lacking in quality and taste. Soggy, over-breaded chicken, tough round steak, sausage with an unusual taste all put a damper on the event. It has been many years since my last trip to The Barn and frankly, I don’t think I’ll ever be back. There are just too many other buffet style restaurants that I’d choose before returning here.

We went for the buffet but it didn’t start until 5:00pm, we didn’t want to wait a hour. So we dined upstairs. Their menu seemed limited, so we ordered the roast beef dinner. It was ok, a little greasy. We have had the roast beef at Bob Evans and it is better. We definitely prefer the buffet, I would have ordered chicken but I didn’t see it on the menu. They have a soup and salad bar, will try next time instead of the menu.
