The Berry Barn in Saskatoon

This culinary haven transcends mere sustenance, orchestrating a symphony of flavors that dance harmoniously on the palate, each note meticulously composed to elevate the diners experience to a transcendent crescendo of gastronomic artistry. A masterpiece.

Excellent !

Atmosphere is rustic in a good way, the food is great down home fare, nothing fancy here just great tasting eats, service was excellent, if you looking for great food in a casual dinning atmosphere I highly recommend.

Was ok, very pricey for your basic breakfast scrambled eggs, limp bacon, etc. for 3 ppl total $107.62 plus $16 tip. That s Crazy! Not worth it. Read the reviews and take them seriously. First time and last time.

The food is exceptional, the staff are extremely friendly and the menu has a great selection of delicious options for people who have dietary restrictions. The last visit to The Berry Barn was excellent. The Gluten Free Waffle is my favourite, it is dense but very delicious and filling. I would definitely recommend this location to anyone who wants a good brunch place on a weekend Dietary restrictions: Lots of options for people who are celiac or have other dietary restrictions

The owner or manager would benefit from customer service training as she accused me of lying initially and then argued with me further when shown the proof. The information was directly from their own website. The breakfast buffet was over priced the bacon was not cooked properly and the rest of the food was cold. The hollandaise sauce was flavorless. The only good part was the mushroom cheddar soup. But $71 is awfully expensive for two tiny bowls of soup. Will not be back!

The atmosphere was really nice and enjoyed a walk around the grounds. However the price of the brunch ($30 per person) was definately not worth it for the quality and variety of food (also coffee and tea were not included). The service was also just medium, a bit confusing for a first time visitor. Worth a visit once in your life but I would not visit again at that unless the food substantially improved in quality or the price goes down.

Update- It s been some time since my last visit. I decided to try out some baking. I am not sure what you would call these. Cinnamon buns? Whatever they are, they are dry, hard and tasteless. If you want good baking go over to Mel Rose and Co. You will not be disappointed over there. All 3 of these inedible dough squares are going into the trash. I was waiting in line to have lunch with my mom today. The party of 8 ahead of us were taken to a table, I stood at the desk waiting for service next. The male server made eye contact with me twice and didn t bother acknowledging me. I waited for another 5 minutes and still nothing.. a family of 4 came beside me and he comes over and acknowledges them. I didn t bother interrupting the family or him to say I was there first. It made me feel sick that someone could be so ignorant. I left the line and didn t bother having lunch. I did go to the bakery and purchased 4 cinnamon buns and the man at the cash register was helpful. I ll be back for the baking but never for a meal.

The scenery here is very beautiful, eat food need to wait about 1 hour, Saskatoon berry is delicious

We love the Berry Barn s atmosphere and the garden. It s really nice in fall too.

I used to go there at least once a month taking friends that come visiting from Brazil ou Calgary. This thanksgiving a friend invited us for the buffet. He thought the reservation was at noon but it was 11:30. When we got there the front desk lady was super rude, but said they could try to accommodate us in separate tables. We agreed and thought it was ok as there was lots of walk-ins coming. Bad mistake! Our group had 2 pregnant women, one baby and two 3year olds, and I brought two friends from Calgary. About one hour later I was feeding my son and the same front desk lady shows up saying You are here for more time than allowed, I need you to leave the table within 5 minutes . We did leave within 5 minutes for never more. I was SO ASHAMED for taking my Calgary friends there. I paid for my son s buffet and he left without eating almost anything. Our table only left there about $150, not sure about the whole group. The place is for sure beautiful. But you pay a lot for ok food and to be mistreated. Do not recommend!

It was my first visit to berry barn so,I didnt know what is the reservation process I just entered in restaurant one old lady stopped me very rudely and her behavior insulting. Very bad customer service

Love the Berry Barn! My husband and I came to celebrate our 1 year anniversary. Food was delicious, the atmosphere is always beautiful!

*NOT* DOG FRIENDLY INCLUDING PATIO. Despite looking up dog friendly restuarants and Berry Barn coming up, and them claiming online to be dog friendly we were turned away at the door. Other reviews also claim its dog friendly, maybe its a recent change but do not go here with your pet. Its very unfortunate as we were so excited to go here, they have great food and dessert.

Five stars are not enough for this delightful place. The topping bar is heavenly. I m reluctantly leaving but fat and happy

We booked a table for 7 but couldnt be seated until all 7 people were there. 6 of us were there 5 mins early and the 7th person was got there 10 mins late. We had to stand there for 15 mins before we could sit down. Made no sense

The kids and kids at heart had fun using the pedal go-karts. But be aware: its not easy to find the person that collects the money so that the kids could get to the go-karts. Service

One sour experience with a ridiculous policy and rude owner negatively impacted an otherwise nice experience. We only went to the restaurant, so this review does not reflect the rest of the site. We reserved a table at 5:00 and one party member was late and they refused to seat the party until the last person arrived. This policy makes no sense; let your guests order beverages and appetizers or even order food for the late guest. The owner argued that lots of restaurants have this policy, we have never heard of this before. At the end of the meal, we expressed our displeasure and the owner was dismissive and insincere. There was no mention of the policy on the website or mentioned to us when we made the reservation. There was no offers for compensation for the rude behavior of the owner and when asked, the lady at the till huffed, rolled her eyes and went to help the next person in line. I was absolutely furious at this point- and, I will admit on my part, went a little over-board; I made a big show about walking out. I only disclose this, because I am aware the owner responds to these reviews and I urge other reviewers to see how the owner responds in a text-book way to the other negative reviews. There are some very serious reviews on here and they should be believed. I wish I believed them. I marched back in and tipped 15%, and I sincerely hope the waitress sees all of it, minus what they have to give to the kitchen, because our waitress was a very lovely sweet girl who was exceptional at her job and very kind and prompt. Aside from the owner being miserable, the grounds are obviously quite pretty which is to be expected. The ambiance of the restaurant is nice as you can see the river. It was warm in the restaurant. The food was delicious, the cabbage rolls were some of the best I had, and the perogies and sauce was very good. The prices were what I expected with it being a touristy-fan favorite of Saskatoon, and our waitress was, as mentioned, very sweet and exceptional at her job. I hope they treat her right.

I don t often leave reviews, but I came with my son who was excited to pick berries for the first time and we left with him asking why the lady wasn t being very nice. Came to pick Saskatoon Berries, and the Facebook page says you can get a pail at 8am.. I went in to the greenhouse at 8:55 and the lady said she had to cash out for the previous day before she could give me a pail. I told her the Facebook page states 8:00am but that it wasn t a problem, and she said no it s not 8:00, it s also very slim pickings, but I need to do this before I can do anything else. So we left and picked elsewhere! I don t mind slim pickings and would have been happy to pick what I could, and was genuinely looking forward going into greenhouse afterwards to buy flowers! They ve lost my business today and in the future.

Went for dinner. The perogie combo came a total mess on my plate. Soupy cabbage rolls that were stacked on the rest of the food. Basically everything tasted like tomato sauce. Disappointed. Also, the wings. I wouldnt recommend. For the cost ($20) we got FIVE and they were barely tossed in sauce. Do not recommend. Not worth the spend. Things were different last visit (a year or so ago). There was care put into the plating, portions and price. Not sure about coming back.

The lady at the front and the gentleman seating us were very standoff-ish and unpleasant. We were seated in the worst spot - right by the door opening and closing over and over again. Food was so lacklustre which was disappointing because we brought family from out of province to enjoy. The gentleman serving us was nice but took so long to check in and even give us the bill. Afterwards we walked the property. The signs everywhere make the place feel negative and unapproachable. It was very disappointing as we had a wonderful experiences in the past. We will absolutely not be coming back and will not be recommending to anyone else to go.

Perfect afternoon outing

The guy in front of restaurant was very rude. He shouldnt be in front of restaurant he is bad representative for this place. We just moved to the city thus place could be one spot for us but we never would be back to this restaurant because of him.

I pick up a pie and some cheesecake to go home. The pie only had a half pie crust and tasted bad. The cheesecake was not good. I through them in the garbage. I write an email with no response.

We came here and my daughter found some earrings for her sister with a 6.99 price tag on them. They scanned the earrings in and they came up at 9.99 the store would not honour the price sticker as they claimed it was not their sticker. My daughter was in tears. Never coming back to this place again.

I am so disappointed, my family got bullied by the owner asking my cousin in law if she understands what the owners instructions to wait for our turns to call to be seated. It would have been nice if she said it nicely but in very rude voice while looking us when we pass by from head to foot. The children even said the she is not nice and they say is she racist. Also to let everyone know if you eat to them more than 10 or more person you are oblige to give tip for 15%. Is this mandatory, the staff on the counter said it is.

They have this bizarre policy where they wont sit you unless your whole party shows up. One of people coming with was elderly though and couldnt stand there at the front waiting for them to get the table together which is why we made the reservation. I guess they dont want you sitting there a minute longer than possible but it needlessly creates large crowds and a chaotic feeling at the front of the restaurant. It felt like you were a herd of sheep being corralled. The woman also seemed pretty rude that was running everything. Food was quite average and wasnt worth the price, they listed off the sides and mentioned soup and then noticed they charged 4 dollars extra on my bill for it. If youre going to charge extra maybe dont list off the sides like they are included in the price and give people some warning that it will be extra. The whipped cream was very runny and just created a mess of everyones waffles, farmers sausage was dry. The bathroom urinal was out of commission and I couldnt get the latch on the one stall to close so there was one usable toilet that offered any privacy. Its a shame because it was my girlfriends birthday and this is a bit of a yearly tradition for her but she didnt have a good experience and Im pretty sure we will find somewhere else to go next year.

Nice place, famous for its beautiful location by the river and its saskatoon berries icecream. There is a lot more to do there.

The food was really, really good. Also the service was quick. The decor was very homey.

Oh, those delicious Saskatoon Berries! A beautiful morning for breakfast on the deck and a stroll on the lovely peaceful grounds. Service from the heart

Even though I was very busy, the server was very friendly and the food came out. pretty fastwaffle, mushroom soup of course. The taste was also the best. After the meal, the nearby promenade was full of flowers and trees. I visited with my friends I will definitely bring my family

Took my Mom s berry picking. Very disappointed as this is not the place to berry pick unless you have a ladder. Had to pull and bend branches to get to berries as none were very accessible because the trees were older. Not at all for older people, my opinion. Went for brunch, food was enjoyable but not worth the price at all. Scenery is stunning and absolutely beautiful! Customer care is also top rating! Because the berries were not very accessible, 2 pre picked buckets were purchased and very, very dissatisfied. Berries on top were beautiful and ripe, but underneath were not. . Found this out when we got home. Beautiful landmark , customer service and care, wonderful , product and value not so much at all . Glad we went, yes, will a return visit happen, No, will recommend No.

Sadly I will not go back . Customer service is not on the menu. I was treated very poorly by welcoming staff. My experience.July 14.2024... I am quiet surprised at The Berry Barn. Called 3 times yesterday, asking about reservations needed,open times and Then the time we wanted to come.a man answered all times. He told me they opened at 1230. As I wanted an 11am spot. Today we arrived 1220ish. Place is packed? I go to get our table and say wow you must have had a busy morning? What time did you open. She said 9am like always. I Sauid ohh the fella told me yesterday you opened at 1230. She scoffed and Said she answered phones. I felt a bit embarrassed as she said did you call the right place. I showed her my phone asking if the number I called yesterday a 357pm was theirs she Said yes. I went well a fella answered and took our reservation for 4 at 1230. She asked my name.. ticked it off and told me to have a seat? I asked so Im on the list and yet you said no man answered the phone. The guy standing beside her then scoffed and she rolled her eyes saying he is the only man who would answer. Then told me to go wait for about an hour for a table. I felt again embarrassed and not believed. Then my girls came in a I was pushed aside while she turned her attention to them.we left and I promise never will I go back . Hats off to Olive Garden for the wonderful service to celebrate my daughters birthday!!!! saved the day Wheelchair accessibility: The road up to is gravel...very crowed and small hallway to bathrooms

new owner is incredibly rude. scoffs at customers and has an overall horrible customer service attitude. completely unorganized as well as employees giving incredibly inconsistent/incorrect information over the phone. do better and start actually caring about treating people with respect and kindness.

Good food, friendly service

Still a cute place to go for the day, just wish outside things were not cash only, or more a $2 then $5 as the minimum cost.

ill go to the restaurant for waffles and pancakes

Great place to visit almost 20 minutes away from Saskatoon. Nice scenery. I didn t care for the breakfast, The waffle was good. I recommend this place for visit.

So overpriced food!

An absolute beautiful spot. Great food and great service. The desserts are amazing and with a half size option on most, no guilt. Highly recommended Food

Went to Berry Barn for Fathers Day dinner (12 people in our party) Hot food items were over cooked and the so called salads were very disappointing. The desserts were poorly put together. Didn t appear to be anyone cleaning up or replenishing the desserts. The price of the meal was atrocious. Don t waste your money.

Super unhealthy, unhygienic food with limited options. I don t understand why there is so much hype of this place. Don t waste your money here.

I booked my wedding in August 2023 for June 2024. The venue I picked was the berry patch which is a super cute area (quiet, has a nice backdrop). In early May they emailed me saying they had double booked the Berry Patch and I had to either change my time or change venues (there are 2 wedding ceremony venues available). We decided to change venues to the river view even though I had never seen it in person. It is very difficult to change the ceremony time a month before the wedding, which she had suggested. She also told me they had a speaker system for rent, and then during our meeting a month before the wedding, Natalie said they dont have a speaker system for rent. The new spot (river view) was very close to the restaurant and would be very loud and it had no altar or backdrop for the ceremony. The berry barn is unprofessional and I would not recommend booking a wedding at their location.

Parking: Lots of parking spots available. Kid-friendliness: 100% Kid-Friendliness! Wheelchair accessibility: Lots of options to pick from and the ramp is wheel chair accessible.

Brunch on Sunday at the Berry Barn! Had the Sausage and. Waffle with all the trimmings (old favourite), and it was fantastic. Our male server was very attentive and quick to bring our order. I do wish that we did not have to go down the 3 original back outside stairs to get down to the eating area. It must have been quicker and easier than raising the eating area so diners had a better view of the river, but its harder for families with young children, older adults and those with disabilities. We werent asked where we wanted to be seated. We have usually been seated in the original dining room, but we passed right thru that and down the stairs to be seated to what used to be the outside deck. Next time we go, Ill ask for different seating.

Line up to pay in the store took a while (around 15 minutes). I asked for two Saskatoon berry tarts, and was given two butter tarts with raisins instead. While they were decent, its not what I wanted or asked for. I wouldnt make this stop again.

Great food and service

Such a nostalgic place to visit and take the family, atmosphere and food are always great.

I called the front desk to ask a question about my reservation I have for mother s day. Natalie answered the phone and was extremely rude. She cut me off and didn t give me the chance to finish my sentence. She said bye and hung up before I even had a second to give a response. I haven t been to the Berry Barn in years and was looking forward to visiting again for the mother s day special. If my question/request can t be accommodated that is more than fine! I understand that, but maybe let me finish asking the question/rationale before cutting me off. Natalie put a bad taste in my mouth. Especially, when you re paying $40 per person i m going to ask the question I wanna ask. Before I was cut me off, I was going to ask an additional questions as to what items on the mothers day menu were gluten free as there is a celiac allergy in the family. At this point, I just cancelled the reservation because it s not worth being spoken to like that for a $40 per person mother s day dinner that s supposed to be special.

I was very excited to back to Berry Barn this season. We ordered our usual Pasta with Alfredo sauce and was not happy with the taste. Not sure whether you changed your chef but it never tasted like previous years. It tasted blank and missing the actual taste. Then we ordered the 3 cheesecakes half size and further got disappointed with the bowl they were served. Really small. Hardly we could fit the toppings. You might be trying to control the portion but the bowl literally put us all off. All excitement we had for the day just got drowned. I don t think we would return unless there is some improvement.I am sorry that I didn t take pics just because the size of the bowl turned us down.

Being new to the city area I had heard that the Berry Barn was a great place to visit and eat. The place was very nice and the buffet had goof good but to me over prices at $41 with taxes. My complaint is that when my friend called for a reservation her credit card number was taken to reserve a place and a no time were we made aware that menu service was not available. Had we known we could not order from the menu we would have gone elsewhere and come to the Berry Barn when it didn t have a buffet. We did not get out our monies worth out of a buffet. We felt we had to stay as if we left on our reservation they had her credit card number. It is fine to have a buffet only but this should have been told to us when we called for a reservation.

A beautiful place to come for lunch or dinner. I had the cheese and mushroom soup served in a bread bowl. I was seated in the glass enclosed porch with a great view of the beach and river. What a wonderful experience in the country, yet only 20mins from Saskatoon. I even picked up 3 jars of their home-made Saskatoon Berry Jam to bring back to Ontario.

The food was good! Young staff was also good! The elder ladies were brutally racist and rude! Dint bother to ask for tip and were judgemental. Talked behind our backs. I feel if we are paying the same price for the same food like others why be rude with us. They should visit other places and receive the same treatment lol.

Really disappointed with their behaviour. I brought my cat with me and she was inside the bag. The lady working in the front was so rude that she didn t even let me stay a minute. My wife was looking for something to buy but because of their behave we are not gonna be here anymore. This is really a great place outside of saskatoon but sadly their behaviour was really disappointing. They have dogs all around the place but my cat inside a bag was problem for them. However if you have a cat with you don t bring your cat here.

Food is just so so. Service is poor. Big disappointment because it was a highly recommended place in the friendly Saskatoon.

Went for the Easter buffet. The food and the service were good . We enjoyed it

This place has perfect sask pie! Not super sweet, but just right sweetness with a scoop of ice cream! I cannot wait to try waffles next time. They also had a waffle topping station! Regular food was okay but the pie experience kind of masked the food experience. Sun Room style seating was awesome! I am visiting here again next time I drive through Saskatoon!!!

Nice place at the bank of river

Excellent breakfast enjoy it very much

Had a great experience there, great service and really good food with the added new items!

No surprise here, its usual high standard.

Great place to bring the kids in the summer. Take them 5 the train ride and the pedal race track and then through the garden centre on the way out.

This location was quite busy for this early in the season and a weekday morning. We had the perogies dish and the farmers sausage. Both were good but the pickled beets liquid spread over to the perogies and should be in a separate dish or drained better. The saskatoon lemonade was very tasty and thirst quenching. Service was good but a tiny bit overworked.

This place is so good as it is associated with the river. Greenhouse was the same and very busy. Train ride was fun, but it was damn windy. It will be great to visit when the petting animals are out. River was so good, and the water was just right to jump in. We like the restaurant here but there is not much for vegetarian options. It would be great if they could add pizza to the menu.

The Berry Barn is a wonderful enjoyment, tourist location that gives a good environment for relaxation, knowledge, historical review and beauty. It has the food, natural environment, green house with both popular and exceptional flowers, children playing rides and a vine garden. It has a natural river that has the resemblance of a sea side with sea side experience with the tree around giving the wind effects. Parking: Within the premises, both at the entrance and exit lanes. Over forty vehicle spaces. Kid-friendliness: With parental guidance it is kid-friendly train, different kinds of cycles, electronic horse riding, model horse wagon etc

Delicious food with a few things for little kids to do. It s busy because it is good.

It was such a wonderful place for adults, elderly and the children. The green house had a lot to offer. The Services at the Restaurant were quite commendable. The servers were very receptive and caring. The river situated near the Barn was a beautiful scene to behold. It added to the cool environment. Kid-friendliness: The kids were not left out at the Berry Barn. There were Go Carts for them to drive. They also had access to kids train where pictures were taken and they had the opportunity of riding the Bronco( a horse ride) and you can pay a token for the musical horse ride.

Very beautiful barn! Nicely laid out spaces inside and outside. Very refreshing. The food is authentic and delicious. House special delicacies such as Saskatoon berry pie is ultimate and not to miss out. The big greenhouse nursery is a plus. The river beach behind the barn is another attraction. Plenty of car parking available. Check the opening hours before attempting to visit.

Canceling our Fathers Day reservation after todays extremely poor service and lack of accountability. We have been coming to the Berry Barn since I have been little. Today was so disappointing that it has prompted me to write my first google review of a restaurant. We arrived at approximately 1:15pm and were seated around 1:55pm. It was extremely busy and the waitress took a little longer to get to us to take our order, which is understandable. The order was taken ten minutes after we were seated. We waited 50 minutes for a burger and small dessert. During that time, people around us came, were fed, and left. I had to find our waitress in the restaurant to ask how much longer it would take. The food came out close to 2pm. 50 minutes to get a burger. The people who arrived 30 minutes after us got served at the same time as us. Very discouraging. I approached the hostess and asked to talk to management. She said oh, youre *waitresss name* group. You got your burger 30 minutes after it was ordered. She seemed annoyed and dismissive. Word travels fast. Shortly after a man approached our table who was the manager. He said the meals were put into the system 30 minutes ago. What had actually occurred was that the order was taken 50 minutes prior, forgotten about, then put into the system 30 minutes ago. He was not apologetic, nor did he offer any compensation (taking off something as small as a pop or lemonade off the bill as a gesture of goodwill or customer sevice). Well the burger came out warm didnt it?. Our time and business meant nothing. To be clear, I am not seeking compensation. I would like this business to practice accountability for mishaps and provide better customer service to soften the blow of wasting time, especially with the distance traveled to get there and the prices of meals.

I don t know what happened this Sunday at the berry barn, we came in from out of town wanting to dine in here and the service was terrible. This tall man has a gross attitude and terrible customer service skills. My one recommendation to this restaurant is to hire employees and hostesses. It was embarrassing to have my family endure this type of customer service - or lack thereof. The man should not be working in any form of restaurant industry, especially with his attitude.

Witnessed terrible customer service from a large man on Sunday. He shouted at us, scared my 7 year old niece and ruined our experience altogether. We have had great memories here since they first opened, however, these memories have been tarnished due to this large man s incompetence. I don t know if he was having a bad day or what his problem was - but this was a joke.

Unique red barn place and restaurant. You have different activites you can do like there is a restaurant inside, there is also a greenhouse with lots of plants/flowers, gift shop to see with different products like berries, souvenirs and photo-op with the big bear or walk on the farm, river side at the back of barn

Awesome Fathers Day at The Berry Barn. It was busy but the buffet style brunch was fantastic. Extra bonus was the petting zoo that was set up today.

Food is always excellent Wait-staff hovered around the topping buffet on our first time up The server was exceptionally rude from start to end The atmosphere was stuffy, considering we were outside Disappointing to say the least, as this was to be a celebratory breakfast Hopefully, things change in the future to a welcoming, non-judgmental wait staff

I love the Berry Barn! The menu is small and I think I have only had two items on the menu out of the 100 times I have been there lol. I always switch between the perogies and meatballs or the half waffle. If you re wanting something savoury, get the perogies & meatballs. The gravy on the meatballs is delicious, I can practically taste it right now just thinking of it. If you have a sweet tooth, I definitely suggest the half waffle because you can head over to the toppings bar and excessively fill your plate with Saskatoon berry sugar goodness, peaches, whipped cream, or custard. The custard is so good, oh my goodness I could just eat a whole bowl of JUST that lol. There is also syrup if you prefer not to go into diabetic shock lol. What absolutely sells the Berry Barn experience though, is the spectacular view of the river & natures beauty from the enclosed sun room dining room, outdoor patio, or by walking off all the calories you just ate by going for a little stroll on the rivers edge. It is fun for the whole family! I recall there being some sort of cars that kids can ride surrounded by hay bails, the occasional petting zoo on a Saturday, or even to go Saskatoon Berry picking! Adding to the beautiful scenery is the most charming farm dog(s) who love bathing in the sun and getting attention from anyone and everyone who looks at them. Also, a FULL GREENHOUSE with a huge selection of perennials and annuals, the odd house plant, succulents, pumpkins in the fall and all sorts of garden decor. There is even a Clearance area. The Berry Barn is the perfect place to take a family member or friend who is from out of town & you can create your own little photo shoot. Vegetarian options: Not much for vegetarian or non dairy options Parking: The parking lot is gravel, so don t wear stiletto s lol Wheelchair accessibility: Being the parking lot made of gravel, it could be tricky on a rainy/wet day. There is a ramp to get into the Berry Barn though and once you re inside I am sure the staff will accommodate your needs.

I will forever love this place with my whole heart. I ve been coming here ever since I was little, with family, friends, co workers, etc. & I ve never had a bad experience. I think this should be a place everyone visits at least once. Beautiful atmosphere, delicious food, & kind employees. I will always recommend this spot to everyone!

Very nice and relaxing place. Perfect for nice picnic.

Awesome food, awesome waitress

Nice gift store lots of touristy nick nacks, along with a nice green house of flowers and vegetables. Dietary restrictions: Very little gluten free, one pasta dish and one waffle dish.

Kid-friendliness: Very kid friendly Food

I m sad and disappointed to be writing this one-star review about a place I ve enjoyed going to over many, many years with family & friends. The meal I received today not only didn t match the description on the menu, but it also didn t match the excellent quality I ve experienced previously at the Berry Barn. When I asked to have a different meal in place of the one brought, Brittany, the manager, said no and that I still needed to pay full price for the original meal I didn t eat. Owning a local business myself, I am very disappointed in the complete lack of customer care I experienced today from Brittany. After paying for a meal I didn t even eat, I ve decided this was my last trip to the Berry Barn. More kindness, understanding, and care is needed by management to retain their loyal customer base if they aim to thrive into the future.

Lovely location with beautifully tended grounds. The food is great!

Great place for four seasons; for each, we found a brilliant view, friendly staff, and a restaurant pleasant choice for Sunday brunch! Even though it has not had various options for a meal, waffles with local jams are a fabulous dessert!

The food safety protocols and the needs of the costumers are not being met at this famous Saskatoon s breakfast restaurant. We asked for a vegetarian Classic Breakfast Meal without bacon nor sausages in hopes to receive a meal in which my family could eat without the worries of contamination. We soon found pieces of BACON within our hash browns when we SPECIFICALLY asked for no MEAT. This is a breach of the food safety protocol that ALL restaurants HAVE to follow. You would expect for the managing staff to apologize. We did not see that hospitality rather rudeness and ignorance to their mistakes while telling us to leave the premise when we were advocating for our rights. They did not consider our point of view and had a whatever type of attitude. OUR NEEDS and OUR RIGHTS were ignored and disregard as a Muslim family. OUR RIGHTS were thrown under the carpet and they made us PAY for a meal we didn t even finish. Is this what we call respect to all costumers? A worker even mentioned that the berry barn also receives many people of our nationality. Casual racism and no means of respect? No apologies or remorse for their mistake? This, more than ever, shows the absolute nonchalant attitude they have towards costumers and their diverse needs. We found bacon in one plate and then soon discovered them in ALL FOUR meals. How can this be a coincidence? Completely disgusted and extremely disappointed in their lack of empathy towards costumers. I would give them zero stars if possible. I URGE all of you, especially those who have the dietary needs to reconsider your trip to The Berry Barn. Vegetarian options: No Meat Dietary restrictions: Halal food, Absolutely NO pork

Nice place to hangout with family

Nice place outside but its dirty inside.

Was a nice place to stop and share a slice of whipped cheesecake! Saskatoon Berry iced tea was great, Saskatoon Berry lemonade, not so much, however still good on a hot, hot day! Giftshop is very crowded, so hard to look at something when folks need to get to the cashier where another traffic jam awaits you! Regardless, still a great place to take visitors to!

I live in the Chicago area and just spent a week in Canada. What an absolute treasure this place was! Outdoor and indoor gift shops were nice and the scenery was beautiful. The food was out of this world delicious by far the best meal I had during my trip. The pierogies were outstanding. We tried all of them: cottage cheese stuffed, potato stuffed, and the Saskatoon berry stuffed. All of them amazing! My wife loved the homemade pasta noodles. And the waffle and subsequent trip to the waffle topping bar was unique and of course tasty. The next time I visit Saskatoon, I will definitely return here!!

If youre in Saskatoon, dont miss the Berry Farm!

It s a good place to spend evening in good weather. Food was good and delicious.

My family and myself went to have lunch at the Berry Barn on Saturday 07/29/2023 at around 1:30 pm. There were 8 of us. It was an extremely busy place at that time. Yes we did have reservations. Once we were seated our waitress came with our water, a warm greeting and a big smile on her face. How she did that, Ill never know. That poor girl, just like all the others, were absolutely run off their feet! When it came to place our order, she was very organized, remained calm and was able to help us get our order straight. Once we got our meals, which took some time to get. But hey, we sure werent complaining. We could only imagine how busy the kitchen was, and felt for them. Besides, our server often came by out table to ensure our meal was coming. Well, once our meals were brought to us, we could hardly wait to dig in. Well, where to begin? The perogies? Just like my Baba used to make. The cabbage rolls were huge! So that meant twice the yumminess. And the farmers sausage done to perfection. I know that not everyone is going to agree with me and what Im saying here. The staff did one hell of a job with how busy it was. if I could give them 10 stars I would for showing up for work the next day knowing what theyre in for. As for the service? Once again a solid 10 stars. Food? 9.5 stars out of 10. Price? 9.5 stars out of 10. Hey, nobodys perfect. But Ill tell you. Id recommend the Berry Barn to ANYONE without hesitation. And my wife and I can hardly wait to go back. Thatll be next week for the Belgian Waffles.

I have always loved coming here. However, the tall old grumpy man has been extremely rude to me and my family to the extent of him pulling the menu card away from our hand. Kick this idiot out if you want your customers to enjoy their experience.

Racism is really exists in this place, no doubt! And the guy who is mostly attending the customer, doesnt know how to behave. None of us went there to get free food. He was looking for Tips and really did not like it since the service was not good at all and the behavior of course! Coffee mug had some dirt on it and smelly! The place is just awesome! They just need someone to manage it, not by a racist. We are paying tax and he/they is/are also part of it. Be respectful to your customers. You are earning from them.

So here we are, going to the Berry Barn with expectations based on decent previous experience. We get there on a week day, it s pretty laid back. No strollers allowed so I had to take the car seat with my kid in it to go inside. when we enter the place, there is no one at the front so walk in a little further and that s when a lady with no smile or nothing orders us to go back to the front like we did a crime. Bold guy comes with less of a smile, makes us walk all the way to the front again just to grab menus. The genius of this guy. Then he asks, how many people, and after he asks are you eating desserts or food. Like I m supposed to make up my mind while standing there. We say we gonna sit then decide like every other restaurant on planet earth. Again, the genius and the customer service is out of the ordinary here ladies and gentlemen. This rude guy walks us to the table, drops the menu. Anyway. Vibes is pretty tense in my opinion, we don t want you here type vibe. We order the food. Food comes. Some salads and drinks and what not. Eat some salad, and BAM! There is a walnut shells in the salad. Bit right into it long sharp walnut shell. Again, I didn t crack this walnut myself from a grocery store. This is a salad with walnut and everything else. You shouldn t have hard sharp stuff in your food. The food safety authority will tell you that. It s also common sense but not for the bold guy. We call our server. She comes checks in. Goes to the kitchen and tells them. Comes back says can I take the shell to the kitchen. Takes it. We thought that s what she s doing. This server throws it away. Comes back and says it was just a walnut it s fine with a straight face. Call your manager. She calls him. It s the bold guy. He says what s the deal, we tell him, he leaves and comes back. Says it s a walnut. At this point these guys are just gaslighting our whole table. We say bring it and let s see if it s a walnut or a shell. He goes comes back, it s gone, it s in the garbage. Doesn t matter buddy go dig out. He goes come back apologizing saying yes it was a shell and says it s not their fault. he removed the salad from the bill like it was a great favour he was doing. Rude, terrible service, food is mediocre. Idk how they operate tbh. Will never go here again. Used to be mediocre now it s garbage. Do not bother responding with the generic follow up guys. Save your time.

I have been a regular customer for years. Went in with my fiancé last weekend and had the worst experience we ve ever had at a restaurant. The hostess and waitress were aggressive and rude, we had crumpled napkins thrown into our table and made to feel unwelcome. It was an uncomfortable experience and we got up and walked out before ordering. On our way out the waitress again confronted us in the same aggressive manner and then stormed off. We did not order any food or receive any service and spent roughly twenty minutes on the patio .

Just finished having breakfast here this morning and it was the worst experience ever. Three of us were meeting for breakfast, as we do every Saturday, but this time we decided to make the trip out to the Berry Barn. I got there first, and with the other two expected by 9:30 I went in at 9:25 to get seated and started on a coffee. It was a couple of minutes before I was seated so I got a table for three and was seated. The most unpleasant short woman who should take a lesson in customer service then stormed back to my table to tell me that they don t allow a table to be seated unless all of the people eating are here. She asked me where the other two were and I said they would be there shortly. She then said next time I had to wait for everyone before getting a table. I told her there likely wouldn t be a next time after this. She asked why and I told her that generally over the years we have enjoyed coming out here for special occasions, however after this we would probably go somewhere else. The waiter then came over to the table demanding to know where the other two people were and how long they would be. I told him we had separate vehicles but they were on their way and should be there shortly. He was staring me down and told me that I shouldn t be sitting there unless everyone was with me. I told him that I would not be calling them to see where they were because that is insane. That was when my sister and brother in law arrived and sat down. Maybe 3 whole minutes had elapsed by the time I was seated. I filled them in on the grief I was getting since I arrived, and the waiter came back and to my brother in law said that there was one time when they were really busy that someone came in took a larger table because they were expecting someone, then left without ordering anything after an hour. Now we were there this morning at 9:30. Although the patio was full, the solarium had tables available and the restaurant was empty when we arrived and when we left. I also did not notice any signage that indicated all members of a party had to be present before they would assign you a table. I believe in supporting local but dealing with this kind of insanity on the morning of the start of a long weekend is not what I want to support. Will not be supporting Berry Barn in the future.

I love going to the berry barn. Not only delicious food but its so beautiful there and I love their garden center which is filled with plants and all kinds of nicknacks.

So glad I stopped - even though out of my way. Had a wonderful lunch (pierogies and cabbage roll) and took a to-go meal for dinner at my hotel in another city later that evening (Cabbage Borscht , homemade roll and Saskatoon pie)..All of the food was excellent and the grounds beautiful.Service was prompt mid week. Gift store/cashier area was too crowded for leisurely browsing but I was in a hurry anyway.

This was a great lunch. We had mushroom soup in a bread bowl. Sooo good. I would totally suggest going here. Busy place so to save time ,call and book your table ahead of time. Food

Lots of delicious Saskatoon berry-centric dishes! Great service and a beautiful location make this an easy place to recommend. Don t skip dessert either.

always FAB!!!!

Had a reservation for breakfast this morning with my family. Waffle bar was fine, nothing special. Waffle bar was very mediocre, with a few fruit sauces and whip. Our service was really great - very polite and fast. Not impressed with the no stroller rule. I certainly understand space is limited, however, the place is cramped full with junky items. I also wonder, if a stroller cannot navigate around the Berry Barn, how would a wheelchair? I still complied with no complaints. I was further frustrated when the server stated she could not seat us until our entire party had arrived. I have never heard of a restaurant doing this, and we had a reservation? So I had to walk around trying to entertain my toddler while holding my infant since I couldn t have my stroller with me, and await the rest of my family. As well, as I mentioned, the place is jam-packed with junky items (also in the greenhouse), with signage everywhere stating to supervise your kids (fair enough) and they break you buy . Definitely not a family friendly place, especially given the distance to get there. Do not recommend.

10/10 for the 3 Bernese mountain dogs there. Would pet again. But on a serious note, lovely place with a great atmosphere and the restaurant was really nice and food was awesome.

Very disappointed. We couldnt eat and go to the petting zoo due to parking issues. It was so full that people were parking in the ditch, but I couldnt do that because I have a small, old car that would get stuck. We even came 1 hour early before the petting zoo started. In the end, we just ended up leaving. Very disappointed. We drove 1 hour total today for nothing. Maybe next time, they should figure out a way to organize parking, especially if they are hosting an event that many people would attend.

Have had more than one bad experience at the Berry Barn in recent years. The food for starters is not up to par. The burgers are greasy and sloppy and made me and my partner fairly unwell. The fries taste fairly ok but that s about it. The Ciabatta sandwiches are soggy and disgusting and were inedible. Furthermore many hygiene policies are breached in terms of their baking and how it s stored. I ve witnessed several flies roaming the baking cabinet walking all over the Canolis which made me sick to my stomach. They then also have the nerve to charge $4 plus tax for fly infested food. The only thing worse than the food is the complete disregard for customer needs or respect for that matter. The staff are rude, aggressive and see customers as nothing more than a money source. They are unhelpful and are not willing to enhance the berry barn experience. In addition to this, Wi-Fi is not available unlike it is in 90% of modern day restaurants in the world which in itself is frustrating for any youth. For some reason they also think it s appropriate to charge $0.75 + tax for a cup of mayonnaise which shocked me. The ketchup is of course a cheap brand and the effort just isn t there. This leads to an ultimately disappointing experience. The Staff need a real lesson on customer service and satisfaction as it s clear they want you to come and go as soon as possible to get the next lot of victims in. Overall, the Saskatoon Betty Barn is a disappointment and it s reputation has gone downhill in the recent years. The owner is a selfish woman who I saw taking up a table of 6 on her own last year whilst a queue was lined outside the door. The staff ignore customer needs and fail to provide simple services, the food is below fast food standard yet it s 5 times the price. Many hygiene protocols have been breached and is worth reporting. We will not be back. To the owner:please don t reply with another phone response unless it is genuine, I ve seen dozens of your fake and robotic replies to other unhappy customers. I m not looking for compensation.

Ive eaten and made a lot of waffles and can honestly say this was the best Ive ever had! Dont skip the Saskatoon berry sauce and whipped cream on top! My friends both got pirogies and they were delicious as well! Finished off with Saskatoon berry lemonade and crumble for a delightful (& affordable!) experience.

I found this restaurant in a tourist guide and decided to give it a try. There are multiple options between savoury and sweet for lunch & diner. I had their set menu for diner time and it was absolutely delicious. Portions are very generous. Service is fast and impeccable.

A fantastic place to visit. The garden was maintained beautifully. We had to queue up for the restaurant, and its well worth it. I enjoyed the most the Saskatoon berry pie. Must try. Food : 4/5

Just curious, is the pumpkin patch open?

Came here on a recommendation and loved it

My all time favorite.

You have to try their Saskatoon Berry in summer! Their hamburger is also amazing!

Based on our experience I would def not recommend booking a large reservation for brunch etc here. Go somewhere where customer service is top notch if you are wanting to celebrate a special day so you arent left with bad vibes. Theres alot of grouchiness at this place, I think that wouldnt be a surprise to who that is. We chose to have an amazing time despite but woukd not return for any important celebration. Also please use fresh cakes or allow people to being in their own bday cakes. Dry dry dry.

Exceedes expectations. Great selection, quality, and price. Going back for berry season.

Dont know if it was just an off day for the restaurant but the food was cold when it arrived and the toppings bar is also cold so its an extra cold waffle. The breakfast portions were so small for the prices considering any other breakfast spot in Saskatoon. Go for the the granny atmosphere I guess. PS the cottage cheese perogies are quite gross cold because its just crumbly dried cheese inside the dough

Berry barns is a cute establishment with nice scenery and a cute gift shop. The food was really good too, also reasonably priced and a decent variety. The service was not the best. We waited a long time for food to come out, and some of my fries were cold. We were told to pay at the front but it was very disorganized and unclear where the line was. Staff didn t seem to really know either, we were just told to go find the line. The lineup ended being in a section in the gift shop and in an aisle of products, so as we were in line waiting, people were trying to get by to look at things on the wall. I think for how busy it is that payments should be taken at the tables. It was very annoying and the layout of the place is not ideal for how busy it is. The nursery area has a lot of garden / outdoor products but a lot of them were expensive and looked as if they had been there for ages- rusty, dusty and faded. I understand the gravel nearby makes it difficult to keep up with the cleanliness of the nursery, but I personally don t feel compelled to buy their dusty products. Overall the place is really nice and worth the visit, just be prepared it to be busy and for slow service.

Had the Thanksgiving buffet. Was very very good. Staff did a wonderful job of keeping things moving for as busy as it was.

If you have a chance, a visit will not disappoint! Beautiful country setting along the river with great views and great food! Great gift shop with home cooked food and baked goods. Great souvenirs too! I cant wait to go back when I am in Saskatoon again. And dont forget to pet the dogs!

Me and my partner came for breakfast and it was our first time. It was a buffet since it was Sunday and it was very mediocre and not a lot of selection, food wasn t super hot either, warm/cold. For 2 people and 2 coffees our bill came to $85. We were both shocked. Definitely not worth people driving out that way and paying that price. There s a lot of better breakfast spots to go to in Saskatoon that are a way more worth you while and $$

Lovely place, so much charm!

It was Sunday November 19th and we decided to take a drive out to the Berry Barn to try their breakfast Buffet. We were seat just about right away and went to get our food. The food would have been great except it was cold, it certainly wasnt worth the money we paid for it. The food there is usually very good so we were very disappointed. Wont be going out there for any buffets.

No menu s buffet only, no price posted shocked when received the bill $40.00 per

Dietary restrictions: Very limited gf selection.

Fantastic lunch with friends. The food was fabulous, the berries amazing. Lovely dog snuggles outside too!

Not only is the Berry Barn a great place to eat, but it s also a beautiful place to get married! We had a wonderful autumn wedding - it was perfect! Thank you to the staff and maintenance crew for keeping up such a incredible place! It s a delightful visually appealing space.

Beautiful place Friendly people. Brought home a cooked Saskatoon Berry pie and was very disappointed the crust was extremely hard not nice and flaky filling was good. Had to throw crust out. Pie use to be so good

Wonderful place to visit :) Fun place for kids :)

Good food, good service, just with they had a better selection for people with celiac. My mother was limited to a salad for brunch because there was too much risk for cross contamination with their gluten free options.

We had a group of 28. Tables were ready on arrival, although we could not all sit together. Food and service very good. Highly recommended!

Please take your customers feedback seriously and make changes. I echo others recent comments, the pie is just the most disappointing thing I ve had in a while. A hard crust that is likely frozen and de-thawed and then filled with a gelatinous filling. The pie isn t fresh and obviously not cooked together (ie. crust with filling). Where is the fresh tasting delicious pie I grew up having at the Berry Barn? This is your bread and butter, time to get back to the basics and make things fresh.

Was excited to check this place out, travelled from BC, this was one of the places on my list to check out. The outside and flea market areas are nice, open and beautiful views. I found the inside EXTREMELY small and crowded so unfortunately I never looked around long, the bakery display was basically empty and the wait time for lunch was 2 hrs so we left it was too bad! Maybe next time we come it will be better experience.

Im full

Really neat place. Went for Sunday breakfast and it didnt disappoint. They have a topping bar for waffles and a good classic breakfast as well. Homemade Saskatoon berry jam and a neat little gift shop. Highly recommend.

I like this place. I love their cheese cake. I am not a big fan of their sevice though! The review above I wrote 3 years ago, Today I took visitors that came out of province to have breakfast, I wanted to give them the Berry Barn experience, well it wasn t that pleasant of experience. We sat inside it was hot, and lots of flies. In addition, I was shocked to see that Berry Barn still use plastic water cups ( some of them cracked btw). Finally, one of the visitors asked for today s special breakfast but without ham, the answer was, not possible.

Awsmmm for Berry lovers.. Unfortunately Berry season is over.. Ice cream was good..

Limited but good menu. Lovely setting/atmosphere, as well as a great gift shop. Beautiful scenery all around. Great place to visit!

Really good bakery products and a restaurant that was really busy. Good selection on the menu and at a good price. Garden centre, nicely priced live flowers, shrubs and garden ornaments. Souvenir side, is why I only give 3 stars, so much IS NOT CANADIAN. We brought family from the UK with us; sad to see so much stuff from the Orient.

Had a great time with our family at The Berry Barn. We also enjoyed getting a little photoshoot in with this pup!

Had a good breakfast here . I dont recommend the cream gravy they put on the poutine tho . The cabage rolls, progie s, and sausage meal is very good to .

Rude staff. Specially their big guy waiter. Food quality wasn t good either. The only nice thing is the view of the place.

Sweet place to go for a drive, get a cinnamon bun, a cannoli, and enjoy the view of the river. The shop has a lot of interesting souvenirs and gifts. A great place to spend an afternoon. Recently went for lunch with family. The cream gravy poutine was nice. Had the Saskatoon berry pie for dessert. The filling was tasty, however the crust needs work. Very hard, not tender at all. Fix that, itll be amazing.

The food was good but there s a mean little lady that prowls around the waffle bar and yells at you for getting a second scoop of syrup.

If you want a saskatoon tourist experience. This is the place to go! Mostly really good food. So much saskatoon berry food( and merchandise). If you go during the busy times, make sure to reserve a table.

Excellent service!

pleasant area. and not high prices for street entertainment. Childrens cars and childrens train. perhaps few playgrounds are free. But there is a huge queue at the restaurant. Long wait and service. And immediately they poured coffee, and of course they didn t warn that it costs money) ) But in general, everything is fine. Sometimes you can come and walk. the atmosphere is great

Really great Saskatoon pie and milkshake. Planning to head back for lunch. The property is lovely right on the river. Would love to come back during the season and pick saskatoons.

Gorgeous grounds. Right beside the river. We were there for a wedding and it was very beautiful and well done.

Always a solid meal. Good cottage cheese pierogies.

The Berry Barn is an excellent tourist attraction spot, famous for its SASKATOON BERRIES. I visited twice, once in June 2017 and now again in September, 2022. And had sumptuous food over there, like waffles and cheese cake with plenty of decoction coffee, served free several times. One can add plenty of strawberries and raspberries syrups and creams on top of the waffles and cheese cake ONLY ONCE in the beginning, not allowed in second round. But it is already more than enough. We enjoyed thoroughly in the restaurant. The childrens area is superb with a beautiful wooden tractor and old antique like car displayed over there. The wooden swings are superb.

Cashier very rude . Tis not the same atmosphere

Really nice lunch but the berry barn dogs jumped up on my vehicle and totally scratched my paint when we pulled up(to greet my dog ) . If you ask that guests put their dogs on leash - do the same for the resident dogs .

Excellent breakfast & view of the river. We were lucky to see the Sandhill Cranes migrating. Still a great waffle & service.

Great atmosphere, lovely gift shop and fantastic restaurant.

Delicious Saskatoon berry pie and beautiful scenery.

The woman at the front Natalie is absolutely unbearable to deal with. It s a wonder people continue to come back as a I have never had a pleasant experience with her at the front. After reading several reviews many people feel the same. It s ironic that every review response from the owner on here exclaims that they strive on customer satisfaction. You should really consider hiring a friendly hostess, as we all know the first impression is the most important one.

Beautiful place

I m very sorry to be frank but my experience today was truly, truly disappointing. Firstly, I was greeted by a woman who was really, really standoffish & looked like she wanted to hurt me. Got my table and ordered a pierogi, a cabbage roll, a scone and a berry pie. Firstly, the scone was as hard as a rock. It was more like an extremely stale cookie than any kind of scone. The cabbage roll was okay but served cold? The pierogi was nice! When my server came over to ask how my food was I told him how awful the scone was and he kind of just laughed and walked away?? The pie was alright but the crust was soggy and so I am really confused about the hype there. I m also extremely disappointed that I was charged for everything and that nothing was done to try and understand why I wasn t happy with the food. The server was nice enough so nothing against him personally but this was a really bad experience.

The food was awesome, very friendly rustic country feel with a decilicious taste of grandmas cooking is the best way I can describe the experience. Had the famous waffle breakfast and it was absolutely yummy with the Saskatoon berry toppings with other fruit options Parking: Parking was adequate if you arent going during the holidays or peak period! Kid-friendliness: Very kid friendly
