LOCAL.
Established in 2020, The Dunham Barn is a unique and friendly countryside dining destination, situated in the heart of Dunham Massey.
We are passionate about serving simple honest dishes, always freshly prepared and using only the best locally sourced produce from independent suppliers
Home Made, Tasty...
All locally sourced, lovingly made home cooked dishes that taste wonderful, all nestled in the heart of Cheshire near to historic Dunham Massey.
A SPACE FOR EVERY EXPERIENCE
We offer a range of delectable afternoon teas to celebrate special occasions (or just because!), a regular Fish Friday and a whole array of activities including Wicker Weaving Classes and Forage Box Events plus many seasonal events! Please note, due to limited capacity these all do require pre-booking.
We love dogs...
Especially the well behaved ones … and offer water bowls, free treats, and a specialised dog menu! It’s the perfect place for you and your furry best friend to relax and enjoy high quality food and drinks after a long, bracing walk together around the beautiful Cheshire countryside

🌾 A little Dunham Barn x Lovingly Artisan collaboration… and it’s a good one! 🤎
We’ve been experimenting with the gorgeous wholemeal Barber flour from Lovingly Artisan and have turned it into our very own homemade wholemeal scones.
Obviously, I had to do a little quality control… 😉 and I can confirm they are absolutely gorgeous!
Served the proper way with lashings of cream and jam 🍓 (although we’ll leave the jam or cream first debate to you!).
We love working with brilliant local and independent suppliers and finding new ways to bring their ingredients onto our menu.
Pop in and try one while they’re fresh — I don’t think these will hang around for long! 🤎

🐾 Dolly’s not impressed…
Dolly went for her regular evening walk only to discover The Dunham Barn was CLOSED! 😂
Apparently she wasn’t prepared to accept that without checking for herself, so a little sit-down protest outside seemed the only reasonable option. 🤎
Don’t worry Dolly — we’re OPEN again and ready for you! 🐶
Pop in and join us for breakfast, lunch, coffee & cake and plenty of treats for our four-legged regulars too.

little bit of what I get up to when I’m not at The Barn… 🌿
Last week I took some time out for myself and joined @wellbeingwaveuk and @armandbeasley @soundhealingwitharmand for the most amazing 2 hr Elemental Sound Healing Journey.🙏✨✨
Two hours of switching off from everything — sound healing, Reiki and an immersive gong meditation. ✨
Running a business and juggling everyday life means my head is usually going at a hundred miles an hour, so making time for things that support my own health and wellbeing has become really important to me.
It was such a lovely experience — two hours to completely slow down, be still and just enjoy it.
If you’ve never experienced sound healing before, it’s definitely something a little bit special.
Sometimes you need to make space for yourself too. 🌿

Today, one of our customers said something that really made me smile… ❤️
“It feels like being on a holiday here.”
That might just be one of the nicest compliments we’ve ever received.
When we first opened The Dunham Barn, we didn’t just want to create a café…..we wanted to create somewhere you could slow down, escape the everyday, sit under the trees, enjoy good food, great coffee and simply relax.
Thank you to every single one of you who chooses to spend your time with us.
You’re helping create the atmosphere that makes this place so special.
So if you’re in need of a little holiday feeling without packing a suitcase… we’ll have the coffee ready. ☕🌿💚”
