   The food is always so delicious! We ordered the bacon burger and the Rib Eye and they did not disappoint. The service was also great! Thank you so much.

   I had barn brunch the last two days and I regret spending every penny. Yesterday I ordered their three omelet dish- ended up getting a scramble with sausage and sourdough. The plate was filled with butter- literally butter seeping through every press of the fork. When I was done with my meal (half the plate) my hands, the ends of the fork, and my napkin were soaked in butter. I mentioned the extreme level butter, showing the flood of butter on the side of the plate to the waitress but I wasn’t given a discount. I felt scammed for paying $18 for such a heavy and undesirable meal. I already made a reservation so my sister (visiting from out of town) could get a taste of one of the nicer restaurants in williamstown but she was also disappointed with her experience. She got the eggs Benedict with potatoes overly seasoned and fried. The potatoes were practically burnt. Our friend ordered the avocado toast with the bread the size of a nugget and half of her plate filled with the lettuce served at the Williams dining hall with no dressing. Just plain lettuce. I ordered the salmon bagel (they only had plain), only to receive half of the plate also filled with resky lettuce. Williams students spend their money on outside dining to get away from the dining hall food, but I guess we can never escape. To pay $15 for a plain bagel with half the plate just filled with the toppings to put on your bagel (false representation), I think there’s more bang for your buck elsewhere. Ambiance is always good at the barn but for the actual food and quality of the ingredients you might as well try cheffing up your own meal for a quarter of the price. The barn is overrated.

   It’s not too often that you request a burger to be prepared medium rare and fries to be extra crispy and they actually come out as requested…but The Barn Kitchen did exactly that! It was prepared to perfection and we enjoyed an absolutely delicious meal. The server was very attentive, busy but kept checking in with us, friendly and made us feel very welcome. We were passing through but we’re glad we made this stop…we’ll definitely visit again during our travels!

   Overall we were not satisfied with our dinner experience at the Barn Kitchen and Bar. The special cocktails were odd concoctions and not good. I got the salmon and it was on a bed of creamed corn which seemed like it was from a can and left me feeling really gross even though I only ate 1/2 of it. Our waitress was nice but was stressed and served my drink to another table by mistake. Unfortunately we won’t be returning.
