I bit into my burger and I was halfway done with my food. I thought they gave me a kids meal at 1st. Shrinkflation is alive and well here. Bring back the full size food please.

Service was super unfriendly it felt like the whole staff was annoyed that we were there. We waited almost 40 minutes for our food which was basically cold by the time we got it. The food was okay but all and all the experience was quite mid would not recommend. Also the staff handling the food was not wearing gloves which was concerning.

The spicy burger and mac and cheese bites were AMAZING. f
Fries were cold-ish but still crispy, so not mad but would've loved them fresh and Hot. My friend loved her vanilla milkshake. Overall satisfied esp with all 3 of our burgers!

Went to The Barn today for the first time. Spent 20 minutes in line waiting to order - only one register. Only menu is on a few boards behind the register. Would help if they laminated a few menus and offered them at the door. May speed up the line. Food was good (barn burger, pulled pork w/ spicy slaw, fries, and milkshake). Service at the register and pick up was a bit raw. No greetings or thank yous. It felt like it was the first day of operation despite 10 year anniversary shirts I saw being worn by staff. Only 4 tables in the sage - garden and remaining tables are in the sun. Only menu a hot day like today, it was a brutal experience. It was worth a try - might go back in the future to see if there is a difference.

If you like a crispy chicken sammy this is definitely a great spot to stop at. I got the cluckin crispy sammy and it was delicious, I added bacon to mine which you should do too. The service was so so but it was also a busy Saturday afternoon so i know how hard that can be for someone working there. You should keep an eye out for the weather before heading there cuz if its really foggy theres not many spots to sit outside (no inside dining here). Also this place is definitely pricey (but worth it) we got a burger and a chicken sammy and 2 beers and it was like $80+.

Food quality got worse there, a couple of years ago it was very good, we went there yesterday ant it was quite bad. Also when food is ready they don't call pagers immediately but they keep it under heating lamps and call people in batches of 6 so the food is no longer served fresh - I don't know why. Fries were smelling with old cooking oil. That was our favorite spot to eat after our walks in half moon Bay - it no longer is.

Vibes were great. We went early so parking was not an issue. There is a small dedicated parking lot, otherwise may have to find parking. Menu price can be $$. Food was great. Outdoor seating was clean.

Had a good first experience here! Menu is pretty simple but for the quality is good for the price! Outdoor area is well put together with nice seating and permanent fire pit installations. Looking forward to returning.

Super cute place but the peach and burrata salad was not it. Way too much dressing and the toppings were not evenly distributed. Wouldn’t recommend this menu item but the burger was a lot better.

It was our first time going to The Barn located right off 1 Freeway in Half Moon Bay and everything about it was above and beyond! We went as soon as they opened on a Wednesday morning, and they were already swarming with people.

Despite parties filling in, it did not take very long for us to get our food. The food tasted great and they provided extra sauces like ketchup, mustard and hot sauces. The vibe was very nice, we went on a nice warm day so it the experience made it great. Everything about the seating area was very cozy, felt like having a picnic. It was also very clean! On top of all that, the staff was friendly with us and attentive.

Will be going again once we make another trip to Half Moon Bay. We don't live near so unfortunately we can't have it as often as we'd like to, but I think it makes the place more special. Highly recommend!
