The Old Courthouse Cafe in Barnet

Lovely place to visit in local park and relax with a coffee. Friendly and welcoming.

Lovely quiet cafe, only take away but plenty of outdoor seating.

This is a hidden secret lovely little café set in the pretty grounds of the Courthouse gardens. I found it by chance. Good for toasted sarnie and coffee and cakes. Highly recommended 👌

This is a lovely friendly cafe with the most amazing coffee and the best sourdough toasted sandwich, which I might add, they were happy to make me one without ham as it was not busy. They also bake cakes and bake fresh croissants every morning and on sunny days, it’s so lovely to sit outside chatting with a friends with no cars speeding passed or traffic sounds. If I could give them 6 stars I would.

This is a great cafe in a beautiful park. The owner is really lovely and clearly cares about her customers. The food is prepared fresh on site and is delicious! I highly recommend visiting!! Very glad that this place has managed to survive all the lockdowns and hope everyone will join me in continuing to support and enjoy this fab cafe!

Lovely staff and excellent service and prices thank you for the great coffee and making such a lovely atmosphere and experience. So nice to be able to sit outside again 😃I am a local and witnessed #Mandy Solomon incident. The lady (staff) politely spoke to her table about eating food and items they brought somewhere else (I personally think reasonable). She (staff) was very polite and professional and in return #Mandy Solomon went into a tirade of abuse shouting and vocalising her thoughts of how things should be done quite intimidating and putting all manor of thoughts she had to bear above and totally beyond what anyone should have to deal with, literally people had to intervene. #Mandy Solomon and your table that was not necessarily and you would most certainly not want anyone to treat you that way so please don't do it to others you should be embarrassed by such behaviour.

Wonderful little cafe within pleasant, well kept gardens with playground discovered by chance today as nearby Barnet Museum wasn't open yet. Delightful staff - prompt service and absolutely delicious top quality home-made food and drink - I tried the unusual sounding toasted tuna/apple sourdough sandwich which came with a tasty salad with dressing(!) and cappuccino - perfect taste and temperature - Bel my 4 year old grand-daughter had cheese sandwich and frothy milk drink. Plenty of books and games for the children - ultra 'family-friendly'. Superb - thoroughly recommended.

Very unfriendly neighbourhood cafe. Not letting customers - disabled too - use the bathroom and then pointing out I could just 'go to McDonald's' when I struggle to walk is incredibly rude. Also badly organised, most decent cafes have their bathrooms open for clients and do a great job keeping everyone safe. I guess these guys just don't care or can't be bothered to do the extra work.

Nice toasted sandwich, but the small soup portion with 2 tiny end bits of bread was disappointing. Service friendly, but quite slow with our 2 meals coming out 10/15 minutes apart so one meal started to go cold. Perhaps this was a one off as this was our first visit.A suggestion would be to play some quiet background music as the atmosphere was a little subdued.

Good coffee and simple lunch options in a great garden, with a playground round the corner. Could use some more attention to the cleanliness of the place, the garden had some litter, toilet was not in a great shape and the staff did not seem to care much. Still, a nice option for some coffee al fresco.
