Green Barn Whiskey Kitchen - Red Bluff (CA)

2 /5 Jimmy: This used to be my favorite spot in Red Bluff for date night with my wife. Naturally, I chose it for a celebration with our party of six. Unfortunately, it’s not what it used to be. The atmosphere was so loud we could barely hear each other. Fried green beans tasted like fish, cheese curds were likely frozen, and multiple burgers (including mine) were overcooked, dry, or burned—despite asking for medium. Fries came out undercooked. One salad was so heavily seasoned it caused a coughing fit. Even though we had a reservation, we were only given three menus and had to hunt down staff for the rest. Food aside, our waitress was the redeeming factor—attentive, kind, and quick to offer drink refills. She did try to fix things: two comped meal, that we send back. three free desserts, and a genuine apology. We left the bill at $200 and gave her the difference in tip because she deserved it. The bathroom was clean, which helped slightly. Sadly, only two of six meals came out right. This place used to mean something to us—but after this experience, we won’t be coming back.

2 /5 Nicole Cairo: Food was overpriced for how it tasted. I got the meat loaf, and it was very, very salty. My husband got the steak, and it was honestly pretty good. The hostest had a terrible attitude for setting the tone of our experience. My family and I walked in. I said "hey hows it going?" She said how many I told her 3 she asked my name told me it would be a 25 min wait. I said that would be fine and she was gone. Our waitress seemed like she was also having a bad night. i suspect it was because they had a new cook, but idk. The best worker they have was a young man he was so nice and attentive and had a great attitude.

1 /5 Dale Wallace: The food isnt bad, but its nothing special and way overpriced for what it is. I have been there 4 or 5 times and I dont think I have ever had good service. The staff is friendly so I dont want to give that impression, but it takes forever to get your food and its nothing to rave about. It took over 2 hours from the time we got there until the time we got the check and they were not that busy, perhaps its understaffed? Weekdays or weekends doesnt seem to make a difference as this has been the case every time I have gone, just way too slow. After giving it another try multiple times, I can honestly say that I just dont see the hype and how this place has so many positive reviews.... They didnt have the AC on and it was 81 degrees when we arrived and 84 degrees when we left according to the thermostat in the lobby. People were fanning themselves with menus.... I really wanted to like this place but unfortunately I cannot recommend them until they step up their game. The atmosphere isnt bad but that doesnt really mean much if everything else is mediocre

4 /5 Sarah Leedom: This was a good find on our way back from a summit hike in Lassen. The food was quick and well made. Steaks were all cooked to the temps that we requested and service was spot on! Would highly recommend this as a stop after a day on the trail.

5 /5 S O: There was only one server for at least 12 tables. She did amazing. The food was great. The drinks were awesome. The atmosphere is a relaxing vibe. The bathrooms were clean.
