Fantastic Single origin Coffee

Purchased three bags of coffee from The Barn for over the Christmas period. Absolutely fantastic single origin speciality coffee with a beautifully even light roast applied, in order to highlight the terroir of the beans. The Gesha from Volcan Azul was very complex! Shipping took a week to the UK, which is fine. Handled by FedEx. No issues there. This was my second order from The Barn, and I have just placed another order for January's coffee drinking, and can't wait to start brewing some more incredible single origins from around the world. Couldn't ask for more!

Horror

Coffee wise there is nothing to complain but when it comes to delivery and communication you can face horror, like in my case. You can only communicate by sending messages for which it takes DAYS for them to reply; in my case up to 8 days. There is no way to call them directly. My order took almost 20 days to deliver completely; once and never again. The Barn should take an example at Leuchtfeur Coffee - Hamburg, these guys have an amazing range and deliver within 24 hours from Germany to The Netherlands.

Dear Frans, as we communicated with you on our messaging systems via which we were very attentive and responded to your inquiries, as well as attempted to make everything right you seem to be still very upset which we understand. As we mentioned, we experienced an unprecedented volume of orders that unfortunately led to certain outcomes such as late shipments and package fulfillments. As we also mentioned in our messages we sent you an offer and our sincerest apologies and promise to enter the new year on a better foot with our customer experience. Thank you and Merry Christmas.

Tedious customer service when DHL loses package

I have a monthly subscription order. This month the order has been 'ready to ship' for a week now. I contact customer service to ask what's up and they tell me it's already my property and I should ask DHL. While it's true the law states that the package in-transport is responsibility of the customer, DHL never picked up the parcel. DHL was unsurprisingly unhelpful when faced with my query.

The Barn eventually sent a replacement order. I whish they would spare me the pain of dealing with DHL.

Hey David, we were able to send you a replacement for this correct? Typically we ask that if there is a way to solve this easier through contacting DHL we ask the customer to at least try that route before resending coffee and increasing waiting times.

Best coffee roaster in Europe

I've ordered from many coffee roasters in Europe, and The Barn is my favourite. I love their roasts, their drip bags and instant coffee is great for travel, and their customer service is brilliant.

Do not make a subscription with them

Do not make a subscription with them!

I have a long standing subscription with them and last months order was a disaster.

They sent the package with an incomplete address. I contacted support already three times, one time the agent said she will send the order on Monday and im still waiting. They ignore your messages and dont answer back; and good luck getting a hold of them.

Its already the 17th of June and the beans were supposed to be delivered on the 23rd of May!

Im canceling my subscription with them…worst service ever

Dear Lara,

This truly sounds frustrating and we don't blame you- however this is right around the time that we were having issues with our customer service team and completed a large overhaul of the department and our best practices, for our shipping as well. We would love to make it up to you so if you like please send us an e-mail at customer-service@thebarn.de so we can at the very least see what we can do for you in this moment.

Not so good coffee , abysmal cusstomer service

Ordered the masterpiece , it didnt come and was sent back , the shop didnt notice , not until I wrote them 2 weeks after asking where my order is , they say the will ship it immediatly , another 3 weeks passed since then, and nothing , I again wrote an email , they said they are having problems and will send it soon with some extras. Since then 3 more weeks passed and I still havent received anything . Their incompetence is funny , the masterpiece coffees are very hit or miss , out of 5 I only liked one, they keep adding fruits to it . Wouldnt recommend .

Dear Oleksandr,

First we'd like to apologise about your experience. We've undergone a major overhaul of our shipping and customer service departments and best practices, and we are always trying to be better and to offer the best customer service possible for our customers. Obviously this was not optimal in any way and we would love to make it up to you if this is something you would like. Please email us at customer-service@thebarn.de !
(P.S. we never add fruits to our coffee, we simply choose producers that offer an incredible terroir)

Not good for vegetarians

I ordered the vegetarian tagletelle - it arrived piled high with tagletelle and you had to hunt for the mushrooms and what ever else which it was to come with and very bland - no sauce. Had to ask for Parmesan cheese to add a bit of flavour. The sweets were good but if you are a vegetarian avoid this restaurant

Dear Daniel, we'd love to make it up to you. Of course as there were difficulties during those times there were choices that were made that reflected our desire to comply with regulations, and to keep our staff and customers safe and healthy. Please reach out to us at customer-service@thebarn.de so we can figure out how to make this better!
