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

🌾 From Field to Loaf – Right Here in Dunham 🌾
One of the things we’re most proud of at The Dunham Barn is supporting local producers and knowing exactly where our food comes from.
Just a couple of minutes down the road from the barn…..Karen and James Bushell, and the amazing @lovinglyartisan have joined forces to sow a crop of Nelson grain that will eventually be turned into flour and baked into the beautiful artisan bread we serve here.
How amazing is that? I am soooooooo excited!!!!!😜
From a field in Dunham Massey to your breakfast, sandwich or soup lunch, it doesn’t get much more local than that.
In a world where food can travel thousands of miles before reaching our plates, projects like this remind us why supporting local farmers, growers and producers is so important.
A huge thank you to Karen and James for being part of such a fantastic project and helping keep food miles low while celebrating the very best of our local countryside.
So very soon while you’re enjoying a slice of our artisan bread, just remember – it may well have started life in a field only a stone’s throw from the Barn. 🌾🍞❤️

🌾 Gluten Free?. 🌾
Many people are surprised to discover just how much of our menu can be enjoyed gluten free at The Dunham Barn.
🍰 We always have a selection of delicious gluten-free cakes on the counter.
🐟 Our popular Fish Friday fish and chips are always gluten free, and served with all the flavour you’d expect.
🥪 We also stock gluten-free bread, which means many of our breakfasts, sandwiches and specials board dishes can be adapted for gluten-free customers.
We know how difficult it can be to find somewhere that takes gluten-free dining seriously, so we do our best to offer plenty of choice without compromising on taste.
Just let a member of the team know about your dietary requirements when ordering and we’ll be happy to help.
