Wow what flavors the food has. Absolutely worth eating at. Christina our server was just so delightful. The mussels were delicious I had to mop up that lovely sauce. Need to take my lovely wife there. Enjoyed the lamb chops. Would recommend both dishes. Certainly will visit again.

Lovely vibe, excellent coffee. Didnt eat this time but the food looked good. I was thrilled to see there was a vegan option on the specials board, since I didnt see any on the menu. Dogs allowed which is great! Loved the experience!

I worked here when it first opened, its still OK. Food was tasty, but my Moroccan tram was missing the coriander, my husband asked for the potato rosti with his eggs benedict but got a corn fritter, which was still tasty, but not what he ordered. Waiter did not check if I wanted a refill on my bottomless coffee, nobody checked if we enjoyed our meal. Over all, it was decent, but not great.

What a delightful and cozy spot to have a catch up with friends and family on a cool Sunday afternoon. If you are looking for a tasty and well presented plate of food, then this is definitely a must try restaurant. Plus service with a smile. 😃 What a great way to end a weekend.

We were looking for a good, no wait fantastic restaurant and found this in the Foodbarn. They have very good food with nice wine pairing (for a good price) and has a good fibe, without going to much into fine dining!

Review №28

One of my favorite spots for years, I love the setting, look and feel of the interior especially after the recent renovations. Outstanding and consistent food, exceptional service.

Review №29

Food Barn is a firm favourite with my family and weve been coming here for years. I really recommend the seafood dishes. Sadly, on our last visit we had a vegetarian with us and we struggled to find any food she could eat - as some of the vegetarian dishes included fish, and she is allergic to mushrooms. Unlike La Mouette who were able to accommodate another guest of mine in a similar situation, my international guest was forced to eat bread alone. This is immensely sad, as she had previously visited on multiple occasions and had no issues.

The new menu is excellent. The plate dishes are full of imagination and quality. One or two slightly bland and some just outstanding. The bisque and lamb least favorite, some of the veggie tapas ridiculously good. And always a good vibe at foodbarn

As a recent rediscovery I have absolutely fallen in love with the food here again... the Truffle sauce accompanying the mushroom ravioli is the best Ive had in many years!

I visit the Foodbarn regularly. Its not a full service restaurant any longer, Covid has changed that. Its more of a coffee shop bistro. Service is good and the coffee is superb.

Amazing atmosphere and food, very friendly and engaging staff and chef, and great wine tasting evenings.

Review №46

The Foodbarn is always a lovely experience with its beautiful setting, its variety of eateries and quirky shops. It has one major drawback, however, and that is its lack of wheelchair accessible toilets! Those that do pay lip service to wheelchair accessibility were definitely designed by someone who has never sat in a wheelchair, let alone accessed a toilet from one! It is really unfortunate and zuite shocking that Cape Town, in general, doesnt cater to those reliant on wheelchairs for mobility. Buck up, Cape Town tourism especially as covid has made you more reliant on locals, many of whom have to get around using wheelchairs.

Burgers were undercooked...if I wanted a live animal I would have asked for one. The vegetarian been dish was not fresh, probably defrosted and that is why it was so watery.

Review №67

Ive been an on/off regular here for what feels like more than 10 years, I recall celebrations on the 2nd floor when it was still around, its always been worth the drive, Franck is a great chef - love his food, hence why I couldnt go lower than 3/5 stars. Decided to have a breakfast here the other day....I know post C19 and some staff issues the place has taken a knock...long story short I witnessed a great difference: the orange juice left much to be desired...the service was disappointing...the salmon tasted like/was trout...my double short was just a plain latte...the corn fritter and hash brown tasted like old oil and were cold....I really hope things improve.

We could sit outside even in a rainy day.Both the calamari salad and the fish of the day were excellent and very well presented.Good desserts

Review №69

Cute set-up next to a modern day farmers market type set-up. The restuarant itself is professional and cost a bit more than what was expected, but the food was great nonetheless. Waitresses and waiters were professional and friendly. Although, do take a look at your menu before ordering as some meals come with a juice. We made the mistake of ordering juice beforehand and ended up wasting juice, which is unfortunate. This stop is more on the luxury side (fancy?) and not what we expected as we had just popped in from a Silvermine hike.

This bakery... No words! If the ciabatta and pain au chocolat are some things to go by, everything they bake at the Foodbarn must be amazing!
