The food was really good. We have broccoli, salmon, and rice, and it was really really delicious... the service was amazing. Our waitress came back and check on us. Talk to us. Make us feel comfortable... The ambience was really really good. It was outdoor. We chose to sit. It was a little hot but with the trees it make it feel cool. I love the garden. It was beautiful. read more

Barnyard and Carriage House - Fusilli pasta with grilled chicken - New American Near Me - Totowa, New Jersey

The place has a really cool exterior and interior. There was a lovely fireplace, stained glass lights around the bar, and the restaurant sits on top of a hill with a nice view. Our waitress Jody was so sweet and pleasant. That was all great but the food and drinks were not hitting the mark. My espresso martini was just really coffee with vodka,no beans. The blackberry sangria was tastey but no fruit except the garnish on the rim. We had fried calamari topped chili sauce which was okay. The French onion soup did not have one onion in it. The lemon pepper salmon special tasted fishy to me but my husband thought it was just overcooked. I had the grilled chicken cashew salad which was okay although the chicken was dry, bland, and overcooked. This place has so much potential if the food had hit the mark. read more

I could not recommend going to Barnyard enough if you live in the Totowa/ Wayne area. The service is top tier and the food is amazing. I especially loved the French onion soup (so warm and comforting) and the red velvet cake. read more

Great French onion soup but wasn't crazy about my French dip. It had a weird taste but not like the meat was bad or anything but maybe the spices they used I just I didn't like it. read more

EXTREMELY unprofessional management. Called about a receipt and was berated by the manager, yelling at me, refused to help me and hungup on me. Would NEVER give this business any money ever. read more

Super cute ambiance with outdoor dining, solid food, and a full bar. They also have a separate area where they host private parties. It's in a completely different building so your party won't come into contact with the restaurant. If it's for dinner or a private party, definitely check this place out! read more

Very excellent food tasty good environment very professional, beautiful outdoor scenery. A very hidden gem for the people in New Jersey here in Totowa. read more

Very nice location, small eating area but nicely decorated for Christmas. There is a small fireplace Which is cozy for the winter. They give you complimentary bread. I ordered the chicken marsala with mash potatoes & vegetables, the meal was delicious. My friend really enjoyed the chicken parmigiana too. The waitress was friendly and very attentive. Plenty of parking. There is also an area where you can rent a hall. read more

Food was good. Service was outstanding. Had our own little room and was a great birthday celebration. Great music playing...just perfect!

Alright, so Barnyard and Carriage House... 5/5 on vibe. Great outdoor food area, huge bar. You can watch the volleyball leagues playing. Great service, pretty quick too. Very, very limited vegetarian options (like bowl of lettuce or a veggie burger). And some of the food is pretty good and some is not. Didn't love the hot pretzel sticks (and hot pretzels are literally my favorite food), they were just really fried? Chicken Caesar salad was good salad for the salad and dressing aspect, but the chicken was pretty dry. Other friends at the table either loved their meal or didn't. But it was a real mix and that seems to be the case every time we come... hence the 3 star review. The vibe is enough to keep us coming back. Will try more dishes and maybe we'll bump this up to four stars in the future. read more

We joined some family* here for lunch today. The bldg and the grounds were lovely looking. The inside has both banquet rooms for private events as well as a family feel bar and dining area. We were seated right away and the server was very prompt and friendly. Menu although not that large had a good variety. From appetizers and soups to full on entrees there was plenty to choose from. They had several specials to offer today. They are known for the burgers apparently. My aunt and husband both had the Swiss Mountain Burger. Both enjoyed them. Although the cooking between them was a bit different. My husband's was a bit pink IMO but he likes rare so didn't really care. My daughter enjoyed the penne and meatballs from the dedicated kids menu. It came with a drink and dessert. The portion was hearty and she loved the meatball! Dinner rolls on the table were amazing. Mini chibatta style that were crusty in the outside and soft and chewy in the inside. My uncle had the chicken cashew salad. Large salad although looked like only iceberg as the base. Overall filled with plenty of toppings. I enjoyed one of the salmon specials for today. I chose the grilled lemon pepper salmon. All entrees like this are served with either rice or potato and veggies. I had mashed which were very creamy and flavorful. The salmon had good flavor but IMO was cooked just a little too long. It was flaky but the edges seemed a little dry. Overall I'd recommend it but suggest asking for a medium cook. They offered a dessert menu although everyone was full and decided on just some specialty coffee. Most dishes were in the $15-25 range. Overall I'd recommend giving it a try. *Sorry for the lack of pics we were so excited to see our out of town family that I totally forgot! read more

Barnyard is a great place to hang out at when the weather is nice out - in fact, that is the only time I really come here. There is ample outdoor seating along with volleyball courts on the side (there are volleyball leagues that play here) which is actually how I found out about this place, a few friends of mine are in a volleyball league. I never sit inside, and I don't think I will ever. The food is pretty good - the usual American food, I always order a burger with fries. Service has always been very good - bartenders are very attentive. Ample parking in the lot. I'm looking forward to when the weather gets warmer again so I can come back :) read more

Stopped in this establishment for a change of pace. Wifey ordered a strip steak (excellent) arrived as ordered and with that wonderful grilled flavor. Wifey opted for grilled broccoli and a baked potato with of course, sour cream. My meal was a grilled sirloin sandwich with the best French fries I have ever had the pleasure of eating. Nothing special just well done and wonderful. Dessert was raspberry drizzled cheesecake. Everything was stellar including our server Luanne. What I didn't mention here was how pleasant and magnificent the patio here is. The tavern restaurant is low key but yet oddly upscale. Available here also is a large reception hall suitable for weddings, graduations bar and bat mitzvah. Simply perfect a location for any event. read more

Your standard bar food. It was a good Buffalo chicken wrap but not fantastic. The onions rings weren't super crispy. This is a good place to go to if you feel like having casual beers. There is a volleyball sand court outside and a cute gazebo in the back of the restaurant. I've eaten here a couple of times and so far I haven't been impressed with the food. read more

Haven't been here for any events or experienced their outdoor seating, which I feel is probably the nicest part of the place. Instead, I stopped in for a dinner inside. The inside is nothing special, just an unassuming neighborhood bar/pub. Not a lot of tables in the section we were seated in. It has a nice hometown vibe to it, and everyone is really friendly. As far as our food, I've heard great things about the Rich man's burger which is essentially filet mignon served like a burger. Both my boyfriend and I ordered it, and shared some soft pretzels for an appetizer. The burger was so good, definitely lived up to the hype! I would recommend it for sure. read more

Attended a private party and had a great experience. It was a brunch event. The staff was attentive, the food was great, and the venue itself was large enough for everyone to socially distance. Really great experience as a guest. Would consider hosting a private event. read more

The food is amazing--particularly the burgers. Hostesses make the experience when you walk in the establishment, they are there to greet you with a warm welcome. Staff and management are quick and accurate but the food will speak for itself-- you will definitely be coming back. read more

Great place no matter what occasion. Super welcoming environment and good food. Great family restaurant. The owner Mike is very personable! His staff is outstanding! Shout out to back bartenders Anthony, Taylor, and the king server Stefano! He provides exceptional service! He never misses a beat! The dude even gave the whole bar free watermelon! lol But in all seriousnes, I've been coming here for years and plan to never stop. I even had my HS reunion here. Great place! read more

I just have to share with my family and friends the experience I had yesterday at my daughters baby shower with Michael Holland at the Barnyard and Carriage House. It's obvious in his words " you people" are not welcome at this establishment. I arrived at the venue to only find the vendors I hired ready to refund me my money and leave because of the disrespect and racism that they experienced with Mr. Holland. When I arrived he started screaming in my face because they used the wrong elevator. Nothing was damaged. The vendors even asked him where should they go and his response was use your common sense and figure it out. A few of my guests were disrespected upon entering the venue. I couldn't even enjoy myself because of all the stress this man had put me through from the time I entered the place. I was literally in tears and could not believe this was really happening and after all of that he wanted to offer me a shot. I don't want a shot, I just want some RESPECT! I DO NOT recommend supporting this venue because we, people of color, are definitely NOT WELCOME he made that clear! On a good note, shout out to the waitress and bar tender in our room they were so apologetic of their boss behavior and they were awesome in trying to make the remaining of our time enjoyable. so thank you to those ladies. read more

We enjoy the Barnyard for the outdoor dining. The patio is very well maintained. The grounds are beautiful and the tables are big and spacious. Also, the waitstaff is super friendly and efficient also. I can only give the Barnyard 2"3 stars because the food is never good. We go back because of the outdoor area, but the food is really not good. I feel like they buy it from one of those food companies that have everything premade so all they have to do is warm it up. Nothing is from scratch. Tonight I got a bunless burger and the cheese on it was just way too yellow. It reminded me of the American cheese slices you buy in the supermarket that are individually wrapped. The burger was shaped in a perfect circle. Burgers that perfect of a circumference are not made fresh - let's be honest. It's worth a shot if you want to have a cocktail outside and enjoy the evening. I can't recommend the food, but the ambiance is amazing. read more

My Fiancée and I had our baby shower yesterday afternoon. I was highly upset when I found out the President of Barnyard and Carriage House, Michael Holland was highly disrespectful to my family and vendors who were setting up. He referred to my family and vendors as "You People" and screamed in my Aunts face. My fiancée is pregnant and Michael Holland completely ruined this special moment. If you are a person of color please steer clear from this establishment. As a paying customer you should not feel as though you are not welcomed. And that is exactly how we feel still the day after. Michael Holland clearly doesn't know how to provide customer service and it's sad that I think it's only to people of color. On the bright side, the wait staff and bartenders were amazing! However, we will not be patronizing this business moving forward. This experience has ruined what was supposed to be a joyous day. read more

I had my baby shower here yesterday. Unfortunately, my day was ruined and the President of this establishment, Michael Holland, completely stressed me out. He was very rude to my vendors and family. He referred to my family as "you people", screamed in my aunts' faces, and was very prejudice and disrespectful towards my family. I couldn't believe the disrespect we experienced. How can you treat paying customers like this? If you are a person of color, you might not want to have your event here. We are obviously not welcomed. Michael was beyond rude, even to my guest as they were entering the building and trying to find the room. On a positive note, the severs and bartender were very professional and nice. We really appreciated their service. The food was also really good. However, due to what we experienced at the beginning of the event, I would never patron this business, and I will be sure to tell everyone about my experience. My family is still very upset because my special day was completely ruined by Michael. read more

Take my advice. This establishment was a great place to eat and drink, unfortunately, due to lack of management, the Barnyard is tanking faster than the Titanic. Food is horrible, service is horrendous. Waiters have no clue how to serve a bottle of wine, we had to open our own. Wtf. Don't go after 3 pm. Darlene is the only one with a clue. Don't order any red wine and if you want a drink...ask them to add alcohol. I've been going here for about 20 years when Ingrid was there. Management needs to get rid of the hippie night crew who have no clue. Going cheap isn't working. Don't blame the pandemic, go back to what works. Last time regular patron as of 07/22/23 read more

I got I'll Last time I was here was 4 yrs ago & I got seriously ill from a chicken Caesar salad. I suspect cross contamination from raw chicken Went last night bc we figured give it another try. I'm Gluten intolerant & don't eat meat .a There was nothing for me so ordered Caesar salad with Grilled shrimp( no croutons)!l. The dressing was so watered down & shrimp was not cooked enough for my preference. Hubby's burger was good he said. I will NEVER come here again. read more

Staff is very welcoming along with the owner. Mike really cares about his patrons and goes the extra mile to make sure everyone has a good experience.

Rating is for a catered event only Recently attended a catered party in the top floor and it was a very clean and nice venue and the food was good.

Well we liked this place. The last time I was here was about 18 years ago. I don't have a problem with the decor. It's rustic... log cabin(ish). I'm not sure why some people say this place needs a renovation. It was clean, if a little dark due to the dark wood. The service (Debbie) was very good too... and it was busy at 6pm. I had a burger which came out perfectly medium rare... on a large English muffin... with sweet potato fries. Excellent. My wife was trying to be good and had flounder, (also with sweet potato fries) which she enjoyed very much. I had a Stella Artois cider, which I'd never had before. I really enjoyed this and am going to stop by the liquor store to see if I can find some to bring home. I did use a GroupOn with no problem. I then got a 20% discount card for our next visit so that was a nice little bonus. I WILL be using it too. read more
