    Benedict
    Chad P.

    Apparently this place has been here for years but my friends who I come to visit have recently gotten into it and they appear to be coming enough where they know their favorite waitress is Christine. Christine is super friendly and so accommodating usually for the big crowds that come here. We even managed to see one of the real housewives there with her family. That was a surprise! We came here a couple of times during my week-long stay in New Jersey. The ambiance is very barn and kitchy and the food was excellent every time. The chicken bacon wrap to the breakfast platter. My Benedict Was amazingly good! It was delicious and homemade and thoroughly good for what you paid! Definitely looking forward to coming back next time I'm in New jersey.

    The Red Barn seems to be an institution for Montville/Towaco so I have no idea how Wifey and I had never tried it. My daughter and her boyfriend have been here a lot and invited us out for brunch. With a fairly standard breakfast/brunch menu and an 'everything is great' response from my daughter, I went with kind of a standard for me - two eggs, crispy bacon, hash browns, and I HAD to try their biscuits and grits (IYKYK - very few North Jersey places serve grits). Wifey and daughter each got different breakfast paninis. My meal was great - the biscuits here are a little small, but tasty, and they held up when I built two small breakfast sandwiches. The grits weren't anything out of the ordinary if you like grits, but since I almost never get them here I was delighted! Paninis were great according to the ladies, but Wifey took half home since it was a pretty big portion. Our server was great - she told us when she seated us that they were short staffed and apologized ahead of time of the food was delayed. I appreciated the warning, but there was no need to- she was attentive, helpful, friendly and our food came out without delay. This place is cute, but tight. It also gets PACKED, so expect to wait a bit. I will be back!

    Eggs Benedict
    Biancaa D.

    If I'm ever unsure what to order for breakfast, my go-to dishes are always eggs benedict or french toast. I was looking for something new while waiting for an appointment nearby and came across a place called Red Barn. I ordered online--there were so many great options! The pickup time said 20 minutes, but I arrived a little early and my dish was already being served when I checked in at the front register. When I stepped inside, the place immediately gave off a cozy, homey vibe. It has that classic diner charm, with an island counter for solo eaters and wooden tables for larger groups. My eggs benedict was delicious, but what really made my morning were the crispy hash brown sides. It's been years since I've had hash browns this good--thin, golden, and perfectly crunchy. I'll definitely be back with friends or family to sit down and enjoy a meal.

    I have lived in the neighborhood for nearly 15 years and always thought this place looked "interesting", but was always hesitant to try it. Very glad I finally did! I took my sister from out of town there for lunch, looking for something "interesting". It was already packed before noon on a Thursday, so that looked promising. A little noisy, maybe? , Greeted promptly, seated in the last booth left, great coffee. Service fast and friendly despite crowd. Reuben great. Lean Patrami. oversized portion (!) served open face. Tons of fries and did not expect bonus onion rings. Reasonable price. The pies looked great, but we were overstuffed from lunch serving. Will return.

    Red Barn is my favorite local spot to grab breakfast when I'm too lazy to cook at home. They are always packed on the weekends and there's typically a wait to get a table but they'll make every effort to get you seated quickly. I stopped in on Friday for breakfast and got to choose my table :) Red Barn has a rustic feel with wood panel walls and lots of cute wall decs throughout. It's a small restaurant but oh so worth it! I ordered the avocado eggs Benedict over corn bread from the specials menu. Having corn bread as the base for eggs Benedict sounds odd, but it was good! I'd say 9 times out of 10 I order from their Specials. They come up with the oddest sounded pairings at times but they're delicious. Make sure to ask for the Specials before just ordering from the menu. Service is fast and the ladies working here are all so friendly and personable! You'll leave here full and with a smile!

    Monte Cristo w/ fries
    David L.

    We were looking for a diner along Rt. 287 and found Red Barn. Charming rustic decor, and an extensive menu of reasonably priced breakfast and lunch options. Good portions, and good, somewhat basic food. The Monte Cristo sandwich was very large and served with fries and a few onion rings. The Greek salad was nice, especially with the gyro and grape leaves, but I would have preferred a more flavorful dressing than the olive oil at the bottom of the bowl. The wood benches are not very comfortable, and I wasn't offered any coffee refills, so don't plan to linger too long. The service was prompt, though very businesslike (not warm and friendly). Maybe 4 stars for a breakfast place, but initial impression was 3.5 for lunch.

    It's been a few years since we've stopped in but the experience is as great as it always was. The food is delicious and the service is friendly and fast. A great way for our little family to start the new year.

    Western Omlet
    Vito S.

    The Red Barn Restaurant is a local favorite for both breakfast, lunch and dinner. I was craving a western omelet and I knew I had to come here. I placed my order over the phone and with a return time of 15 minutes. The staff immediately greeted me while they packaged my order. The establishment features a unique breakfast counter sitting area as well booths and tables. Everyone was seated around the counter laughing and having a good time while they enjoyed their coffee. My western omelet came with a side of white toast and home fries. I opted to get a side of sausage and sausage gravy. The omelet was cooked nicely with crispy home fires. The gravy hit the spot as I loved dipping my toast in it. Overall a great breakfast!

    You can't go wrong with breakfast at Red Barn. I've both dined in and have ordered takeout and have yet to be disappointed. They have lots of options on their regular menu, and have a fair amount of specials to choose from as well. I'm a fan of their pancakes, bacon, hash browns and eggs benedict. Service is friendly, quick and attentive. Be prepared to wait on weekends, but it usually goes by quickly.

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!

(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?

The highlight was definitely the Stuffed French Toast. It looked beautiful, and I expected it to be overly sweet, but it was surprisingly well balanced. The toast was soft with a slightly crispy exterior, and the cream cheese filling paired really well with the strawberry compote. We also ordered the BLT+. The smoked bacon was delicious, but the focaccia was a little too thin and hard, making it harder to eat than I expected. The house-made sausage was good, just not particularly memorable. As for the coffee, it was probably the most disappointing part of the meal. The latte wasn't very smooth, and the cold brew had a slight off taste. They were both drinkable, just not something I'd order again. Overall, I'd recommend this place for the food and the atmosphere, especially if you're interested in the French toast. There's also parking behind the restaurant, which makes visiting easy.
