Ferny Hill Farm - Barnet

Four of us visited today after having not been in a few years. Unfortunately I left very disappointed.

We were advised of a 40 minute wait on arrival which we accepted so we sat at our table and ordered our breakfast and hot drinks. 1 hour and 10 minutes later I decided to ask where our breakfast was advised it wouldn't be too much longer and 5 minutes later it turned up, some 1hr 15 from ordering.

The food was below average, the plate photographed is £14, the sausages were lovely but small and burnt on one side, the eggs were great but the black pudding was not fit for a plate, it was awful and could barely be cut. The plate was also covered in a ton of beans and juice which I didn't like and 2 tomatoes plonked on the plate not even cut..

The food needs some attention to detail, one tomato cut in half is enough, beans should be separated like most places these days and much less bean juice..

£3.95 for a Cappuccino and it was super bitter. You're also reminded at the till with fluorescent signs thy service is not included.

Disappointed and will not return.

Had a brunch with 5 of us. Really pleasant staff. The breakfast baguettes were enormous! Really tasty as well.
A bit cold in the cafe but they said they were having problems with the gas. Highly recommended.

A great dog friendly find. The space is split in to two so people afraid of dogs have their own half nearer the main door.
Our waitress was one of the cheeriest I have ever met and our drinks were brought really quickly. 50p a bit steep extra charge for soya milk, but you can’t have everything. In general the prices for food were very reasonable for such nice surroundings.

Breakfast served until 2pm so we treated ourselves to a full and a half breakfast (see pic). They weren’t precious at all about us swapping the black pudding out for other things of a same value. We’ll definitely be back next time we visit Trent Park with the dog.

Pricey for being just outside London and considering meagre, unembellished portions: 2 eggs florentine £9.50 with 2 small doughy muffins, not enough to cover the abundance of spinach and hollandaise sauce. Slow service, even though I commend them for being a nice family farm with amazing views on the rolly hills of Herts. Tipped them, but I'm not enticed to go back, tbh.

What a great café. It was packed on a Saturday late morning and I can see why, the food was delicious and the service was great.

It was even possible to bring my dog in which is very convenient.

I'll be going back there for sure.

Waited almost an hour for breakfast. Was given no warning of long wait times when ordering and after 45mins, asked where the food was, was told ‘it was being plated’. 20 mins later a mediocre breakfast arrived.

Would not recommend under any circumstances.

I cannot express how much I love coming to Ferny Hill Farm & Tea Room. The food quality is outstanding, such a warm atmosphere and super friendly staff members. I love that coming here feels like eating along a big family ! I travel almost 40 minutes but it’s so worth the journey ! I highly recommend as their business is clean, high quality products and lovely atmosphere ! It is also dog friendly which is so nice to see as a pet owner/lover myself !

Delightful café close to beautiful walks. Staff friendly and helpful. Went for breakfast with my Dad. He has mobility issues, but there were ramps that made everything accessible. I will definitely be returning. Highly recommended.
