The Barn

"Went to the stable for the “Grand Opening” during the distractions time as advertised and it was horrid. It was completely dead when we went no host to seat anyone and it took 7-8 min before someone greeted us and told us we can be seated. The waiting staff was all just standing around looking lifeless and you could say the service provided was lifeless as well. On a slow regular Tuesday that behavior could be validated but for a “Grand Opening” that’s unacceptable. The drinks had barely any alcohol (overpriced for what you are getting) and the food looked and tasted like they bought it at Ralphs Frozen and threw it in the oven or microwave. The only time the wait staff was quick to be of our assistance was to pick up the check. After our bad experience we were unsatisfied so we went over to The Barn where in my opinion is where you should spend your money if you are going to this establishment. The brisket plate was amazing and the service provided was friendly and welcoming. It was surprising to see the type of service and product being served at the barn was by far 10000000x better than the stable. Great atmosphere with a lot of potential just wish the product and service were better at the stable. The barn keep doing your thing!"

"The food is hit or miss. I was a bit concerned that my chicken tenders were done while I was still waking from the order counter to the party counter. The fries are good when they are fresh, but the seasoning needs a bit of seasoning."

"The food it pretty good if you're on the UCR meal plan otherwise it's not amazing for the price without it. It's a nice place to hang out the service isn't the fastest. The chicken sandwiches are a lot better than the burgers in my opinion along with the fries over their onion rings (usually a bit too greasy and the breading isn't crisp). They've been introducing more options slowly as they begin to get more staff including a deli sandwich station, salad station, and hot plate station. Their brisket is good you can get it on a salad if you ask for it. Salads aren't amazing go for the barn salad. The Italian sandwich is really good I've gotten it twice so far. A solid 8/10 if you're on the meal plan, otherwise a 7/10"

"Wonderful little gem that I still can't believe is on campus. Try fantastic cocktails inside! To be clear, all the beers in the flight came full"
