The Barns Café on Northcourt Road has been open for five weeks and is already well known in the area, and was doing a fine trade this lunchtime.
A visiting mum, over from Australia, to be with her family, was very pleased to have found The Barns.
There are two upstairs seating areas, for those who would like a better view of the old timbers. One side has board games to play on a rainy day.
It is opposite the shops in Northcourt Road with plenty of parking round the back. You can like them on facebook or visit in person ( Tue – Fri: 09:00 – 16:30 ).
The community enterprise has been set up by Christchurch in one of their many barns.
Oh it looks beautiful. I love a nice barn.
And a very tasty lunch it was too! Can vouch for the fact there’s plenty of wheelchair access…
This looks spot on, I reckon I might call in this weekend 🙂
It is a beautiful conversion, I wish them every success
Glad to see its opened. Now planning to try it out! Good luck with the business.
This truly looks great. Myself and my daughter will be acquainting ourselves. Well done.
Steveo, Its only open Tuesday to Friday: 09:00-16:30.
Sadly not weekends. (but who knows)
I visited when I had a week off…I have been watching the whole project with interest. Phab Club meets every Thursday evening at Christchurch Hall.
