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

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. ☕🌿💚”

💚 We’d love your advice…
As many of you know, we’ve always offered free parking at The Dunham Barn because we want visiting us to be as easy and welcoming as possible.
We’d really love to keep it that way but……………
Lately we’ve noticed more and more cars being left in our car park by people who aren’t visiting the café.
On our busier days, this can mean that some of our lovely customers struggle to find a space, and that’s something we’d really like to put right.
We completely understand why people choose to park here – we’re in a beautiful location – and we genuinely don’t mind people using our car park if your just going for a walk into Dunham as long as long as you buy something ……even just a takeaway drink.
Every purchase, no matter how small, helps support our independent business and allows us to continue offering free parking.
Before making any decisions, we’d really appreciate your thoughts🧐🧐🧐
Would a gentle reminder that the car park is for customers be enough?
Or do you think there’s a better solution?
We’d much rather work with our community than introduce parking charges or restrictions if we can avoid it.
Thank you for supporting The Dunham Barn over the years and we truly value your thoughts on how we can keep the Barn welcoming for everyone. 🤍

This weekend marks 6 YEARS!!!!!!
since we first opened the doors @thedunhambarn
What a journey it has been🫣
We’ve celebrated birthdays, anniversaries, baby showers, weddings, afternoon teas, Christmas, community events and so many everyday moments over a cup of coffee.
We’ve watched children grow up, welcomed new faces, and been lucky enough to call so many of you regulars and friends❤️
Like many independent businesses, the last six years haven’t always been easy.
We’ve faced challenges we never imagined, but one thing has remained constant – your support.
Every coffee you buy, every breakfast you enjoy, every cake you take home, every event you book and every recommendation you make genuinely helps keep our little barn going.
It means more than you’ll ever know😍
Running an independent business is hard work, and now more than ever we need our wonderful community behind us.
Our promise is simple:
we’ll keep working as hard as we can to provide a warm welcome, delicious homemade food and a place where everyone feels at home.
So from the bottom of our hearts…
Thank you.
Thank you for choosing us.
Thank you for supporting local.
Thank you for believing in what we’re trying to create here at The Dunham Barn.
Here’s to the next chapter, and hopefully many more years to come. We couldn’t do it without you. ❤️
With love and gratitude 🙏
