Inside, the dining area is spacious, and tastefully furnished with a nice warm fireplace in the room. The bar area has plenty of seats and TVs for sports fans. Our server Angela B. was so very pleasant, and attentive. She informed us about weekday events held at The Barn (trivia, bingo, vinyl night) and what sounded like a great Brunch Sat/Sun. We will be returning to experience some of them. We started with "Barnachos" ($18) containing a generous portion of pork (carnitas) and the usual nacho components. No pump cheese here though! Yay My wife had a lovely Greek salad ($19) with feta, grilled chicken, olives, onions, etc. I had a Meat Lovers pizza: pepperoni, sausage, cheese, sauce, peppers, onions, olives, etc ($22). The pizza was served piping hot. The portions were all generous and the food was delicious. We were too full for dessert! The menu really has something for everyone but everything on it has a special twist to it. Check out the menu at: https://thebarnkitchenandbar.com/menu/#view-page.

We were a group of 20 and our orders were taken quickly and served accurately. The food was very well prepared and presented elegantly. I especially enjoyed the Brussels sprouts. The French Toast bites were a delightful surprise. People seemed to enjoy shishito peppers, I'll take their word as I am not a fan of peppers. My Willow Burger was a taste sensation. It was pilled high with the topping of onion, avocado, cheddar cheese, tomato, lettuce and a tangy chipotle sauce. Yum. Worth the trip even if you are not attending the theatre.

I was with a party of six and at 11AM, we were all in a breakfast mood. We tried and all liked the Brioche French Toast, the Mushroom Thyme omelet and the Shakshuka. The Lemon Ricotta Pancakes with lemon curd and blueberries just didn't hang together. (Only four dishes for six people because two of us ordered the omelet and two the French toast). Overall the food was very good and the portions generous. Beverages were fine. The service was a bit spotty, possibly because we had two waiters who seemed to be tripping over each other. It shouldn't take three requests to get a glass of water. But overall, a place I'd try again.

Even though it was packed, we managed to get two seats by the windows, they had two fun games to play to keep them entertained! I can't wait to try a flight next time!

They offer some food options as well. Inside there is plenty of seating and there is some outdoor patio seating including one of those outdoor bubbles. Parking can be challenging when it's really packed. I recommend visiting if you're in the area!

Love this brunch place. For a span of several months last year, we had a recurring pattern where…read morewe would eat at Willow and Whisk, and while seated at our table enjoying our amazing food, we would make our next reservation to dine again at Willow and Whisk two months later. (Reservations are not that easy to make last minute.) The restaurant is big and open but always busy. Kids get wax craft sticks to play with and bend into cool shapes, which I find very unique and cool. I feel like there is a difference between a diner and a true brunch place. A diner, of which there are numerous in New Jersey, is a establishment that churns out inexpensive, and potentially excellent, but very standard breakfast food - omelettes, pancakes, benedicts and the like. A true brunch place, on the other hand, offers things like lemon ricotta pancakes, cacio e pepe scrambles, mushroom thyme omelettes and shakshuka. Willow & Whisk is that kind of brunch place, and which is rare in New Jersey. The food options are varied, very tasty, and with good portion sizes. I love the shakshuka and the mushroom thyme omelette. Oh gosh, when is our next reservation again?

I really want to love this place but it's always disappointed me. It's beautiful and the food is…read moretasty but trying it again today was a bit of a last straw for me. I asked if I could do 2% milk with my latte at 8am with only 1 other table in the restaurant. Waitress told me it's whole or skim. I asked if she could mix them, half and half. She said it takes too long for the bartenders... I said "there's 2 people here, mind if you make an exception?" To which she followed up with "no, it's a rule." Okay fine... I'll settle for my $7 latte I guess. Following that, I ordered the mushroom thyme omelette, the second bite I took had a full on hard stick from the thyme I almost choked on (not chewy, hard - see pictures). I decided to let it slide, these things happen with fresh herbs. 2 more bites in, another massive stem stick jabbed me. If I had given my daughter either of those bites, it could have been scary. I sent it back. I love their coffee, and the shukshukka (botching the spelling). But for how much you pay, their service is inconsistent and these errors are painful (literally). I'll likely come back for the coffee and vibes but won't be bending over backwards to do brunch here.

When I stopped by here with my top-tier chums, we initially speculated on why this place is so…read morepopular (parking was a little crazy and there were small lines of people waiting to sit down throughout our meal). The obvious theories were that it was either really good or the only game in town. Based on our experience, it's a little from Column A, a little from Column B. We came for brunch this past Saturday around 11:30am. None of us had been here before, but it was roughly a "meet in the middle" type of situation conveniently located off of 202. Although all of the nearby parking spots in this strip mall were occupied, it's a big enough parking area that it wasn't difficult to locate a spot further away closer to the road. Little annoying, but it is what it is and could have been worse. Inside was similar - part of it for sure was due to our timing, but it was crowded and a bit chaotic. I went in first to secure seating, and we lucked out with a table near the door immediately. The biggest knock on Red Barn is that it's just not that comfortable, at least in that seating section by the counter. It's picnic tables for the most part with no seat backing, and you are RIGHT up against your neighbors - I bumped into the back of the guy behind me several times. The obvious solution is both normal tables/seats and/or removing one of the picnic tables to give everyone a little more breathing room. Honestly, it reminded me of the worst parts of NYC restaurants, where they basically jam in as many tables and chairs as possible as a cash grab. Easy fix, and I'm surprised it hasn't been done. The menu was legit, and put a lot of my initial concerns to rest. It's gigantic (befitting a diner-esque establishment), with both lengthy breakfast and lunch sections, along with a specials menu that could have been a standalone menu in most places. I was in the middle of a physically active day and got a little naughty (which I regretted later, but that wasn't Red Barn's fault), opting for the Biscuits & Gravy entree, which also came with two eggs and hash browns. Honestly, too much food and in hindsight I would have just gotten the Biscuits & Gravy, especially since my companions and I split pancakes w/ strawberries on top as well. Lesson learned. Everything was very good; nothing mind-blowing, but it did the job. The Biscuits & Gravy was an insane portion, featuring four biscuit halves. I thought the eggs needed a bit of pepper for flavoring purposes, but beyond that no discernable issues with any of the food. The service was very good and essentially matched the chaos in there. Our waitress was understandably very busy, constantly moving around, and yet stopped by regularly. Additionally, all of our orders were on the table within about 10 minutes or so. No issues whatsoever in that regard. Additionally, the bathrooms were a delight, covered in quirky signage. As mentioned, this is kind of a weird area where you don't have a real downtown/Main Street section to meet up with people, so it's a big plus when you find a random, decent establishment.

The million dollar bacon was excellent - drizzled with syrup and pepper. All the kids liked this. The current seasonal specialties- tres leches french toast - the toast was good, but the tres leches made me want syrup - a lot more syrup- as it made it drier even with the whipped cream and strawberries. The chimi steak was too dry (they didn't ask us how anyone wanted it done... so not the best), though the hash was plenty of potatoes and the egg was done right with the chimi churri sauce a nice touch across. Service was ok, but very busy so they didn't come around much. Coffee cup was already dirty, passed it back for another one. They have a coffee pot upfront for those waiting.
