My family and I attended a wedding party at the Grain Barge, the staff were friendly and the food was absolutely delicious. I even emailed the Barge to get one of their recipes. Thank you Grain Barge for sending it to me.
CUSTOMER REVIEW, OCTOBER 2026
Eat & Drink
We serve delicious, honest food that celebrates the best seasonal produce from local farms and suppliers. Our mission to work as sustainably as we can informs all our choices; who we work with, the ingredients in our ever changing menus, and the drinks we pour at our bar.
We serve locally sourced veg focused dishes, highlighting the produce from our own 5 Acre Farm. When using fish and meat we chose MSC certified, and hyper-local beef from Kelly’s in Chew Magna.
