🍟Food at Mersea Barns

The food was fantastic. Everyone's breakfast was great, a special mention for the French toast. There is also a children's lunch menu. Picnic boxes from ÂŁ5.50 and hot meals from ÂŁ7.50. The coffee was also great.


👧 Service at Mersea Barns

The service was... mixed. That being said our waitress was super friendly and gave good service.


🛝 Play Area at Mersea Barns

The play area is sand based. There are a number of balancing beams, logs and ropes. Good for balancing and also good for playing with vehicles. There were a few diggers and spades available to play with. There is also a sand table. It's easy to keep an eye on the children from the seating area.

There is a grassy space next to the sandpit area.

🎨 Messy Play at Mersea Barns

There is also a covered Messy Play space with a messy kitchen, dino world and playdoh station at Mersea Barns. We didn't try out the messy play so I can't comment on it. Children ÂŁ6.50, Adults ÂŁ2


Eating out with kids is hard! Kid-friendly places often don't have great food. The food and coffee were so good at Mersea Barns, making it a Parks of Essex recommendation.
