Bennetts Willow Barn in Worcester

Lovely building and nice carrot cake! Horrible horrible coffee, one of the worst i have ever had in my life, asked for a latte the drink was super hot way more than 70°c it burnt my lips, The coffee was so so bitter and acidic, it left a horrible taste. A bit overpriced for a local cafe. I would go there but have a tea instead :)

There aren’t enough words to say how perfect our wedding day was here back in September. Charlotte was there every step of the way and we couldn’t have done it without her and the rest of the team. Everyone we speak to say says how amazing this hidden gem of a venue was and how it was such a happy day. I wish we could do it all over again.

Always nice to go and chill with friends.

Great experience at this cafe who stay open desire the flooding as the cafe is on stilts and your can use the nursery when the normal cat park is flooded, food was great and service was quick, it can be pricey though.

Willow barn carpark is currently under water. The staff were there to direct you into the cafe. They are always friendly and welcoming even during this difficult time. Food as always was lovely and tasted fresh. Can't wait to come back

Brought my partner here for the first time after raving how lovely it was the time I went before with my friend. We ordered 2 scrambled egg on toast...one with sourdough and one granary, one hot chocolate and 1 pot of tea. We were directed upstairs as downstairs was full and to be honest it was not welcoming or clean and tidy or near the standard of the cafe downstairs...felt like a forgotten space .... We sat at a huge empty table which was dirty so decided to move when a couple moved to their table. We waited half hr before I went to ask where the scrambled egg was as still hadn't even had our drinks..I was told a large table had just ordered and that's why it was late ...I asked for the table to be cleaned and she said she was coming to clean it but wr had moved. This is not so as she cannot see us from downstairs and she didn't know about the table being dirty too...which she didn't clean knowing we had left it. We then got the food and no drinks. The sourdough was not sourdough it was toasted white bread. We said the drinks hadn't arrived so she went again to collect them and delivered hot chocolate and cappuccino...I explained I had ordered a pot of tea . She said she looked at the wrong ticket. It seemed as though our entire order had been misplaced and we were forgotten. I was so disappointed and upset as its not a cheap place to go and I have no issue paying when the food and service and environment is up to the asking price but even the hot chocolate was not pleasant. Sad to say I won't recommend and I won't return ...

Good place for weddings and so forth

Stopped off for a spot of pumpkin picking in Bennett’s brand new pumpkin patch. It was a brilliant, well organised event. Our little girl loved choosing a pumpkin and meeting some adorable calves. We had a delicious coffee in the café, which was super clean and decorated in a gorgeous rustic style. We just love it here. Plus, the ice cream is the best in the country in our opinion!

‘Mushrooms on toast’ 2 pieces of toast with bland unseasoned mushrooms on the side. For £8 I expected at least some seasoning, herbs or maybe garlic cooked into the mushrooms, awful

12.34pm ordered 2 x scrambled egg and 2x pot of tea for £22.60. Tea was brought almost immediately, however, waited until 1.03pm! Not acceptable.

I went with my 5 year old son to the mini farmer calf experience at the end of July and was blown away. Couldn't recommend enough. It was so well balanced with it being both super informative as well as being hands on which meant my son was engaged the whole time. A really good insight into dairy farming (for adults as well as children) and ace to be able to meet the cows which included feeding and cuddling the calf's. My son is still buzzing about it. Looking forward to when my daughter's a bit older to bring her. 10/10 recommend.

Great place to meet up with friends. Our drinks were good and the food that was being served looked great. Nice atmosphere and great location to meet up with friends & ex-colleagues.

It's a nice place set in woodland on the fringe of the city.. I only stopped by for a drink, but I will return.

I photographed a wedding here in May 2024, and I've never felt so well looked after by a wedding team at a venue. Honestly, you were all SO lovely and understood our (suppliers) needs as well to ensure we were on form for what's usually a 10-12 hour day for us, not including the hour and a half travelling either side of the wedding 😴 Making sure we had a drink and catered for us as well. I hope one day someone will book me for your venue again xx Thank you and well done for having such a positive team! X

Beautiful place friendly staff lovely food a gem tucked away

Food wasn't the best. I ordered a club sandwich. After opening the bread up, I found that most of the bacon was fat. In fact, one large slice was only fat, and I thought I was paying for bacon. I would not recommend a visit.

Lovely location, really thoughtfully put together. They have improved some of the car park but otherwise it’s really bumpy with many pot holes. The good is fine, the ploughman’s platter used to be full and great value at £9.99 but now it’s £13 and hardly anything on it. Nice area for kids with animals and a play area (main reason to visit) but they seem annoyed to take your food down there as if it’s too far for them and I also don’t like that they ask for a tip when you order. The food is pricey enough and it doesn’t feel justified. Shame, this place used to be so much better. I still go because the outside section is very nice but with a grumble.

Eaten here before and it’s very nice. Only issue is the font on the menu is tiny. I can normally cope all day without my reading glasses but couldn’t read the menu which is embarrassing when you have to ask.

Lovely business tea party.. Easy to park, gorgeous light and airy. Scones were fabulous!

Popped in for lunch with some friends good menu lovely local food friendly staff great place to take kids

We recently got married here, they aren’t enough adjectives to describe what a wonderful experience it was. Charlotte and her team were absolutely incredible, nothing was too much trouble and she is so calm it kept everything relaxed and easy. Fantastic food (than you Steph for the brilliant pizzas) and the venue and atmosphere was just perfect. I cannot recommend this place enough as a wedding venue. If you are thinking about it book now before it’s too late you won’t regret it. There is something very special about it, maybe because it was built for love in the first place you can feel it. It will definitely always have a special place in our hearts. I’m already thinking about booking our 10th wedding anniversary there just so we can do it again!

We often go there for the little playground which is a good size for a little one, with a small sandpit and a couple of diggers in it. The good is fine. Recently visited for a party and got to see the tent and a beautiful garden behind. A lovely set up

Lovely cafe in a beautiful setting. The playground is great for smaller children, and there are usually animals to see.

The kids lunch boxes have such a flimsy base to them, the apple , the drink the whole lot just fall through onto the floor.

Nice breakfast but set menu as I don't like mushrooms so wasted food

We went to a christening party here, was amazing. We also came back for breakfast after staying at the yurts. Beautiful grounds. Coffee fav. Kids loved the pancakes and waffles

Really lovely lunch! Great food, friendly service. Did the ‘Meet the Baby Animals’ event and Steph was brilliant- very friendly and answered my little ones dozens of questions 😂 A great 1/2 day out! Can’t wait to come again.

Lovely location will be visiting again for the children's play area and to drink tea around the pond. Not visiting for the menu though. Tea good, scone was either gluten free or stale, black coffee was too thin.

Nice location for a bite to eat. Staff friendly and helpful.

Always lovely to visit, friendly staff and fabulous service. Also love seeing the animals!

Nice but not sure what it's niche appeal is over other venues.

First time visit. Won't be last Lovely breakfast super coffee.

Fantastic experience ruined by one member of staff Great breakfast. The young lady's serving us were brilliant, attentive and polite. Unfortunately the older lady who brought our £30 breakfast out needs to work on her customer service. Threw the plates down and disappeared. Poor form!

Absolutely wonderful place to pop in for a lunchtime visit. Lovely coffee and has several tea options. When we arrived, although the indoor seating was busy, we still were able to find a table; they also have extra indoor seating upstairs. There's a lovely selection of food on the menu, including: all day breakfasts (until 2:30pm); sandwiches; paninis; baps; jacket potatoes; milkshakes; and so much more. Lovely atmosphere with a rustic feel, alongside the radio playing softly in the background. The staff were very friendly and have an excellent sense of food hygiene and cleanliness. It's lovely to see a farm diversifying, using their own milk and beef; as well as using eggs and pork products from neighbouring farms. It's a good feeling to support not only one farm, but three! They sell their own milk and ice cream, so be sure to stock up! You'd be a fool not to pop in!

We visited Bennetts Willow Barn for the Santa meet and greet with our 2 year old and had a lovely time. We parked up easily enough, although we didn’t spot the signs for the barn straight away to begin with and nearly ended up in the restaurant! Given that our son is so young, this short and affordable meet and greet was perfect, especially whilst conversation with him is very one sided. We were greeted by a very happy elf, who confirmed our booking, then we spent a few minutes with Santa. We had photos taken by a local photographer, who was also very affordable, and a welcome surprise on the day (I’m very much looking forward to the photos!) After the meet and greet, we had a quick look round the Xmas market then made our way outside to the play area. Whilst part of it was flooded from the recent bad weather, our little one was still keen to say high to the chickens and goats, and have a go on the play equipment. Had this been the middle of summer, it would have been great. All in all though, a lovely and friendly visit!

Group party, food was lukewarm, wedges almost unedible, poor excuse for a veggie option. Apparently not everyone needs a chair if not advertised as sit down meal. Long wait for food.Eye watering bar prices, no resolutions on the night. The whole groups opinions & experience not validated but the vendor.

I came here for a quick coffee and just to look around. I found this place via Instagram! Next time i will bring the family over.

We had afternoon tea on a Saturday at 12:30, it was lovely. The staff were very friendly and the food was great.

My 6 year old attended the Disney Popstar Workshop and thoroughly enjoyed herself. Lydia was amazing with all the children. She was very welcoming and inclusive, putting them at ease from the start.

Bennetts Willow Farm was an amazing venue for our wedding day. Lucy and Laura were amazing and could not have been more helpful. Laura helped answer all our questions and very much supported us with our suppliers. Lucy was beyond amazing in the day, she helped myself (groom) and all my groomsmen set up for the big day. We have no eye for decorating and relied heavily on her artists eye to make the venue look amazing. The venue was everything we wanted- relaxed, fun and quirky. We could also have our dog with us for our special day. Bennetts Willow Farm will have a special place in our hearts.

Went to a lovely party there today and it was wonderful! Great vibes! Beautiful surroundings with the goats, chickens and rabbit!

We went here because we had a 2 year old birthday. Lovely space provided with tables and chairs set up for us. The food which was pre ordered was very tasty and enjoyed by all. We went to an outdoor space where some animals were and they enjoyed a little bit of attention. The staff were polite,courteous and very helpful. A super time was had by all and highly recommended

Tasty bacon and sausage sarnies. It's reliable good food from a local place - I'd reccomend stopping in for breakfast or lunch but a booking is a sensible choice on weekends. My only complaint about the food is mostly for the coffee - it was fine but they used milk that was fresh, or maybe frozen or something as it seperate in my coffee - which caused a slightly odd taste - maybe stick to juice if you particularly mind that!

what an absolute hidden gem in the heart of Worcester. And a huge gem at that. I had a cream tea (coffee) & it was extremely tasty. The staff are an absolute credit to the entire establishment & its definitely a place on my "repeat visit" list. Don't stop doing what you are doing.

The food and service where really good

I attended a wedding reception here recently, what a lovely venue. Cannot rate the food or service, since off-site caterers provided the meals so this would not reflect my experience. There are yurt tents available for people to stay, which some of our party did, but there is also a hotel close by. A well deserving 4 stars, but more like 4.5

Lovely place hidden away..nice food great service and outdoor area is great fir little kids

Scrummy ice cream by the lake.. a little haven of yumminess 🍨

I went to a wedding. It was all set amazingly. It was in the theme of Alice in wonderland and every tiny detail was perfect. It was an out side caterer so I didn't have any food. There were things for the children to do so they wouldn't get bored. They enjoyed the frogs the best (they were just evolving from tadpoles).

We had an incredible wedding at Bennetts, the venue is magical, there are no other words for it. There was a lot of love for the swing, and hundreds of photos' where taken in the beautiful garden and around the firepits in the evening. Everyone loved it and we honestly can't thank the team enough for everything they did for us, especially Lucy. They all went above and beyond to make it without a doubt the best day of our lives.

The beautiful sunshine surely helped but the food was delicious and wow what a great view. An absolute hidden gem.

Great cafe and venue for events. Good food and helpful staff, the ice cream is incredible!

Lovely location especially on a sunny day. It was very busy and we had to wait before being served. The food when it arrived was very tasty.

Early days yet just got here for glamping holiday, not booked in yet I will keep you all informed how we got on Malcolm

We had our 50th birthday party here. What a fabulous location for a party. Lydia was so helpful with organising what we wanted, and the whole team made it a very memorable event.

This a great fa6run business. Cakes are homemade and you buy fresh eggs and milk from the farm. A must visit for all ages.

Nice stop off for coffee. The website and Facebook isn’t always up to date which is a shame as I’ve had wasted journeys to find it’s shut!

What a great little place, everything was just perfect, from the surroundings to the atmosphere, staff were so friendly as well, would definitely recommend to anyone.

always have friendly great experience fro. Staff who go the extra mile. We visit every week and support each other in our group and are given excellent service

What a wonderful venue, in great surroundings, which allowed my friend to plan a surprise birthday party , with everything she wanted, with room for a live band,Dj,Photo Booth and outside catering, great choice behind the bar, and a lovely decking area with views across the pond, it’s just the weather that let us down, great service and clean, thank you!

Ideal venue if the weather is good.. Good facilities, only let down was small bar just inside the entry door so a bit of a bottle neck with people queuing and people trying to enter/exit the building... Also ale demand far out paced supply... But still a fine set up otherwise....

Called in on a wet morning after a group walk. Great coffee & scone with a friendly welcome .

Ok for a drink but wouldn't eat here again. Had bacon sandwich, came in a large bap. Didn't enjoy it tasted dry with the amount of bread. Also, cuppa arrives before, like it at same time. 2xsandwiches/tea £18 - not worth it.

Fabulous place. Wonderful service and good prices. You can buy eggs and fresh milk and home made ice cream too!! Wonderful location ...whats not to love!!!! Highly recommended

We were there for a wake. The venue was set out well, with tea, coffee and soft drinks on one table and two tables of food: freshly made sandwiches, quiche, cakes and scones with jam and cream. The space was good and the view was lovely. Plenty of parking.

Nice location, ok fayre, sclerotic service. I'm sure they can improve on this.

Visited for afternoon tea. Food was fantastic, brilliant service and very staff.

We came for Afternoon Tea. Sandwich choice ham or tuna. No sausage rolls, tiny slice of quiche, yes there was a scone each and a selection of cakes. We didn’t realise afternoon tea was one cup of tea, any more tea was £3.25 each. There was nothing Stunning about the Afternoon Tea. No one came to check everything was ok. We will not be returning!

We rented the venue for a birthday. Great location, beautiful views. Modern and clean, well priced, great options for catering and refreshments! 😃

Beautiful place for a small event, gorgeous surroundings 🥰

Works Christmas party with free bar, so didn't really take much notice of the place. It seemed a bit disjointed as our party was spread over three rooms including the upstairs. Main hall could probably seat 50 max.

Fantastic experience, great food, great setting, great staff. Owner was lovely.

Visited to have breakfast with Father Christmas. It was amazing! The most personal & relaxed Father Christmas visit I’ve been to. The friendly elf led games before the big man arrived. The children loved dancing with Father Christmas & were able to chat to him during their breakfast before having their own 1-1 session with him. Having given details when purchasing the tickets, Father Christmas knew a special little fact about the children making it more personal & the gift suited them too. The breakfast was lovely - a great selection & all very tasty. There was plenty to go around.

Love this little hidden gem lived in Worcester for 30 years didn't realise it was around the corner Up date new menu as of November 2022 vegetarian option gone very poor now sad to say 😢

Great venue for family get togethers or just popping in for a coffee

Lovely wedding venue, tasty hot food and really nice & helpful staff. All adds up to a great wedding!

Very relaxing cafe. Love their ethos on using local produce, keeping waste to the minimum and trying to be as green as possible.

It a really good cafe. The staff are brilliant always happy friendly

Food was good although not a huge range of things on the menu. Ice creams are of course very good. It was a bit cramped inside and not a nice enough day to be outside unfortunately and as we had a wheelchair user with us it was difficult getting seated and not being in people's way.

It's a beautiful place in idyllic surroundings, but when I go out for coffee and cake I like the coffee to be strong and the cake to be fresh. I attend regular work meetings here as it's a convenient spot but have given up on the hope of either of these! The paninis are fine, and the Peter Cook croissants are delicious (if very expensive), but I'd really like to get a decent cup of coffee too.

We used to love this place, they did breakfast until 3pm. Now they've stopped doing breakfast altogether. Still lovely, but the menu is so limited it's not worth going

A nice place for a spot of lunch.

DO NOT BOOK THEIR CHARACTER EVENTS!!!! Booked for the first time to take my 3yo and 6yo to their Elsa and Marshall (paw patrol) event to turn up and be greeted by Elsa and Spiderman. No prior warning to the change in character. My children spent most of the time sat at the table scared of Spiderman not wanting to join in or get any enjoyment out of the event. I only sat it out as it cost a lot of money. IF I WANTED TO BOOK SPIDERMAN THEN I WOULD OF!!! NO RESPONSE TO MY EMAILS AND NO OFFER OF A REFUND BUT I SEE THIS IS A REACCURANT ISSUE FOR YOURSELVES!!! Save your money and book elsewhere.

A lovely little cafe nestled by a stream behind the pub. They serve local milkshakes and ice cream and what you expect at a cafe. I enjoyed a good coffee and pannini. Thank you

A new favourite place, kids loved it, goats are very friendly and the cake is delicious

A friendly, well priced café for breakfast or lunch, featuring milk shakes and ice-cream made with milk from the owners' cows that graze in fields adjacent to the site. Various bookable kid's activities throughout the year in a good sized room. I enjoyed visiting the Baby Club with my grandson for a teddy bears picnic. Yurt space for functions and a popular Christmas fair. The children's outside play area include toy digging machines in a big sand pit and a real tractor to sit on! Picnic benches with a lovely rural view and a river with swans and ducks alongside the café make for a tranquil day out. Very close to Worcester, but you'd never know that!

Very nice setting around the duck pond and very nice food with varied selection. A little gem.

Attended a business conference on 20th July 2022 in the most stunning converted barn. What a beautiful hidden little gem. Breakfast was amazing, staff really helpful and lovely to see the ducks joining in. Would highly recommend

Attended a business event here, there is nothing to fault. The food was delicious and the ducks were added entertainment. Can't wait to return to try the milkshakes.

Lovely breakfast in nice outdoor seating. Highly recommend

A beautiful setting, friendly staff and great food. Lovely to see so much local produce on sale.

Always a pleasure to go to this cafe

It's a lovely place but £4.20 for a slice of cake is daylight robbery!

We hired The Willow Barn for a family funeral event for 50. This hidden gem is calm and tranquil amongst the roads of Lower Wick - easy to get to but then it’s like being in a stylish tree house. Lucy and the team set the room up exactly as we had discussed. A beautiful spread was ready waiting for us on arrival- delicious sandwiches, quiches, sausages and sausage rolls, cakes and brownies . There was also a small bar for those who wanted more than a cup of tea. The family were able to relax and talk and share memories in the warm and welcoming atmosphere created at The Willow Barn. Thank you.

Amazing food and beautiful setting. I highly recommend the large Full English and a latte!!

A lovely place for a wedding reception, great food and a warm welcome

Willow Barn is a beautiful looking structure over a pond that could do with a clean. The coffee and the ice cream are good. Reports of the Oreo Chocolate Cake were not so good - a wee bit stale, apparently. I had an iced ring donut that turned out to have jam in it. Now, this may sound delicious to you, in which case I urge you to visit Willow Barn and order one. But if I want a filling in my donut I will order a round one. Ring donuts are for those of us who want to enjoy more donut, less sauce. So I was not impressed and shall be asking lots of donut related questions next time I visit. There were also cows and goats nearby, and a sandpit for the kids.

Lovely place to spend a couple of hours. Nice surroundings, food was lovely. It would be nice to have a little garden centre with gift shop attached though

Great service, locally produced produce. Bought some great Bennetts Ice cream!

Did my sons 21st surprise birthday the place was absolutely lovely good View outside, food was absolutely a 10 out of 10 we had hot buffet that was amazing and we had a cold buffet for starters that was absolutely so tasty and the service of staff was brilliant for the price it’s worth it’s worth, as my family travelled from Birmingham they were absolutely amazed how the venue hall was beautiful x they have a coffee shop they do lovely breakfast and meals so it’s nice to go and just looking at the view and having a nice cup of coffee and looking outside x
