    The food is not good. At all. The patio out back can be nice at times but is often filled with trashy, drunk college kids. Not a great crowd here.

    I ordered a veggie burger, which came with fries. The burger was inedible -- sickeningly greasy and tasteless. The fries were cold & had obviously been sitting for quite a while. I sent the plate back & asked for onion soup instead. The soup was mediocre. I was glad that my entire meal, soup & all, was comped, but would have preferred to pay for & receive good food. Prices, by the way, are steep -- beef burgers start at $8.25. Service was slow. Next time I'll go back to my favorite WC lunch spot, Market St. Grill.

    I went shortly after they first opened with 4 kids and we ordered a few appetizers and some sandwiches. Keep in mind that my kids are not normal kids; they eat everything, even hot peppers. We were not impressed with the food, didn't finish any of it. It was definitely overpriced and the service was terrible. I wrote it off as maybe the "kinks" were not worked out yet, but haven't heard that it's gotten any better. TGI Fridays food is MUCH better as I do frequent that restaurant with my kids. I have heard however, that Barnaby's is a great place to grab a beer and my 23 year old says the nightlife is fun there. For a good sports bar atmosphere with great food and no parking issues, in the area, check out Pat's MVP on Rte. 3. 10 beers on tap, happy hour pricing; $2 drafts!

    Their menu is uninteresting – nachos, burgers, potato skins, and generally fried everything . I had fish n chips, which were, well fried and not hard to mess up (especially when it’s probably out of a bag). We also ordered the beef stew on their specials, which was tasty enough. My son had a chicken cheese steak, tender and not full of grizzle.

    What went wrong here was the service – or lack thereof. Our waitress was either poorly trained, or had a really bad day. Like when I greeted her first, her response was a stare. And when we gave her a gift certificate with our bill, she “accidentally billed the entire charge on our credit card,” with no offer to refund the money, get the manager, etc.

    Barnaby’s is off our list – poor service makes a terrible meal.
  • I agree with Nikki, food is like what you'll find at a TGIF. There is a nice outdoor bar however and the upstairs bar is great.

    Loved it! (Ouch! I just read the reviews below...where were the people who gave the poor reviews eating?) For our table of 6, we all enjoyed our waitress, the Bay seasoned fries were fantastic, and all the sandwiches were great. The atmosphere was roomy, and we ventured upstairs to book a room for a party...loved it!

    Another sports bar/restaurant with so-so food. Only here it is over-priced. If you're hungry, skip this place and hit up one of the finer local establishments (Doc Macgrogan's, Limoncello,Buddy's, etc.). If you're here to grab a beer with a buddy, then it is ok. Overall a C.

    Food is below par for the price, but the late night scene is enjoyable.
  • Jonesy
    Their food was slop and overpriced.

    I ate with some friends last night at Barnaby's. Several of my friends ordered the Chesapeake Chicken Sandwich. I ordered the Barnaby's Best Burger with a side of Garlic Mashed Potatoes. I should have eaten at Buddy's burgers because the food I ate was poor. I am not drinking for a while and did thoughly enjoy my iced tea though. The potatoes were clearly out of a box. The burger for being cooked medium was super dry. I was appalled that they would put food like that on a table and expect you to enjoy it without being intoxicated. But the iced tea was good. The service was slow and nonpersonal.
  • Nicki
    I heard good things but was sadly disappointed. The decor was the most upsetting, they really ruined the previous Turks Head interior. I went for a "girls night out" without the kids and we were all disappointed. Food was predictable for a TGI Fridays type of place, which is a place that I don't tend to frequent if I have a babysitter!! I had had higher hopes for a downtown West Chester restaurant.

    food is great been there serveral times and never been dissapointed. if you don't stop by you are really missing a good meal for a decent price. try it you will like it.
  • Tony
    Stay away from the pasta or any entree in fact....the appetizers are good bar food and the burgers...that is it.
  • Glad to see they left the transparent floor in, there were rumors it was coming out when Turks Head left.

    My first visit to Barnaby's was a Sunday evening. We sat in the back patio area and I was very impressed. You felt like you were in someone's yard...nice landscaped area and it was quiet. Food was pretty good, too !

    I know it sounds funny to say but I am happy that a smaller chain restaurant is in West Chester now. Decent food, nice atmosphere, and very good prices. If you are looking for somewhere to eat with reasonable prices, this is it.

    About the layout and decor. Ok, it is a chain restaurant, however, lots of TVs make this place a first pick for sports, 4 bars that do not infringe on dining, an outdoor patio, spacious rooms, and it looks clean and upscale ... not your average Friday's.
