Cute place. Boring food. Got the fried chicken sandwich with coleslaw. I might have been able to make it taste better if I cooked it myself. Presentation of food is nice. Maybe I just came on an off day. read more

My friend and I stopped there for lunch because a salad sounded good to me but my friend wanted a sandwich. The menu was perfect for us and since it was a nice day we could eat outside. I got the beets and green salad which was very good and a generous size. However my friend was disappointed. She got the turkey sandwich which she felt was just so-so. She said it was dry and not a lot of flavor. Fortunately it was a nice day because there is very limited seating inside and since it seems to be a popular place we felt lucky to get a table anywhere! The menu is very interesting with lots of choices. We will definitely go back to try something else. read more

I had heard about this place for a while before I had a chance to try it. This place just screams "Marin" to me. You order at the counter and they deliver your food to your table. The menu consists of local, artisan ingredients, which I love. I was disappointed that they haven't yet included gluten-free options and when I asked about them the waitress gave me a list of lame excuses as to why. I'd rather a simple no than a lengthy excuse. I love the decor and atmosphere here. It's got a rustic, shabby chic vibe going on. Think repurposed organic looking wood and burlap. There aren't very many tables so you're lucky to get seats. The menu is great, there are so many options and many of them contain meat from local farms and local greens. I tried the BLT and the Provo grilled cheese. I thought both were incredible and I didn't want to stop eating. I was also impressed at the size of the portions. read more

Rip off place. I spent $15 on a salad supposed to be a fatoush blend. The salad was 99% romaine lettuce, dry with not enough dressing, and all the good stuff supposed to go on the salad was pretty much missing. The guy mixing the salads looked like he didn't know what he was doing trying to read off a page what he was supposed to put on each salad. Not going back. read more

i like blue barn, just wish it would be a little more consistent. The same salad on the weekend tastes and looks very different form the weekday.. :( read more

By far the best sandwiches I have ever had. My favorite sandwiches off the menu are the Turkey, Burrata and Provo! While they are expensive, they are so worth it and the portions are filling. This place can get very busy, so if I am ordering to go I will call the order in ahead of time so I don't have to wait in line. read more

Love the salads and grill cheese sandwiches here. Fresh and tasty at the same time! Must try sheep from the grill cheese menu. Also the big tables and outdoor seating is great for eating with friends an family. read more

I know.....$14 for a salad in a shopping mall setting seems a little ridiculous, but the arugula salad is THAT good! Other things on the menu are probably just as good, but why stray from my tried and true? Good job, Blue Barn! read more

The food was amazing! I can't believe this place doesn't have 5 stars. There was a wait for a table but only a few seconds. The staff was quick to bus tables and get people seated. We had the tomato soup and cheddar grilled cheese. It was amazing. Also had a side salad with miso dressing. Super yummy. Great staff great atmosphere. Highly recommend this place. read more

I have been back several times since my last review. The food is excellent, and the tables are always clean. It is very expensive, but organic food is that way. The ambiance is not fancy, but the staff (all of the staff) are extremely nice. Yes, I was disappointed with the tuna. I have spoken to friends who felt the same way. That is just the way they make it here, so I will stay away from the tuna! Best salad in Marin. read more

Loved the healthy options and unusual flavors in their salads. Keep in mind, salads are huge and you can definitely share between two people! read more

Wow! I just had the Tosada salad, what an amazing meal. Not only was the service excellent, but the staff was very helpful! I would recommend Blue Barn to everyone who loves organic produce, and great ambiance. Way to go Blue Barn ! read more

Came here a couple of weeks ago on Wednesday, July 1st about 4:15 and the place had maybe 4-5 tables (combined both inside and outside) with customers. Ordered an arugula salad w/ tri-tip since I had previously tried their arugula salad with chicken and enjoyed it. There were 2-3 people who had ordered before us and were waiting for their orders and didn't think much of it at the time since they didn't seem very busy as it was too late for lunch, and too early for dinner, and I only wanted a salad. Paid upwards of $18, which wasn't a surprise for me since I had eaten here before, but others may be caught off-guard by this. However, what was a surprise was that I had to 45+ minutes for my $18+ salad at 4:30 in the afternoon when they weren't that busy. In fact, a guy who came in probably 25 minutes after I ordered got his food before I got mine??? Despite sitting at the table closest to register and the front door, never once did anyone provide any explanation or apologies for the long wait. As much as I would like to eat here again, I am having a hard time doing so since I think an $18+ salad (made with non-organic ingredients) and lousy service is hardly worth my money. Time us money, and I could have easily run to the store picked up all of the ingredients for this salad and made it in close to the sane time and would have saved myself at least $10. Be warned and think twice about ordering to go at this establishment unless you have lots of time and money to waste. read more

Went there for lunch with a friend, had a salad with added prawns. Was delicious. Little the wait to get get a seat. They were crowded. Nice people at the counter too. read more

I ordered a Fattoush salad which is a traditional Mediterranean salad with an olive oil, lemon dressing. The salad arrived with a sweet dressing and limp greens. When I sent it back the manager told me that satisfaction was not guaranteed and tried to charge me for another salad. She eventually agreed to substitute another option but it wasn't very good either. The quality of this place has taken a precipitous dive. I won't be eating there again. read more

Kickin chicken and rajun cajun are both on crucial bust. Spicy tuna salad is also a hitter Pretyu much everytning ive tried is dank af read more

The amount charged and my receipt don't match because a tip was written in (not by me - I left a cash tip)!! Even if I inadvertently left the tip line blank, it does not mean anyone can write an amount there. Very dishonest and disappointing! I really do love the food but no tips for awhile, if ever! read more

Awesome build your own salads today! I took 2 teenage girls that don't normally prefer a bowl of salad for lunch but they got excited about all the options and enjoyed the experience. The communal tables were great, the music and ambiance nice, the service was very friendly! I loved everything about the salad except for the smoked salmon (but my husband is a fisherman and I am sort of a seafood snob). I expected real smoked salmon not "lox" style salmon. 5 stars if they have better smoked salmon next time I visit! :) read more

I love this place!! I could eat one of their delicious salads everyday!! The sandwiches are great as well. Service is great!

Had dinner at blue barn last night. Everything was great, yummy food, reasonable prices, quick service. Had the "skirt" sandwich. Fresh, moist (messy), flavorful. Too yummy to not eat every morsel! Will definitely be back when we're in the area. read more

Truffle turkey sandwich is the best sandwich I've had in Marin. Rajun Cajun was also very good. Plus they have soft serve ice cream with olive oil and sea salt, like Pizzeria Pico read more

Very busy place but my order was made in a timely manner and the food was delicious . I ordered the rooster burger juicy chicken breast with flavor . My ciabatta roll was toasted just right . read more

I have eaten here several times since it opened. I am happy that the wait time has seemed to have improved steadily since they opened. I've only ever had sandwiches and most have been delicious. I also like that they have beer and wine, it's really nice to sit on the patio on a sunny day with a glass of wine and a yummy sando. The staff seem hit or miss, most visits the staff seem happy to be there and very friendly, on other occasions the interactions have been less pleasant. Last time I was in I ordered the new sandwich and was a little disappointed with it. I think Blue Barn still has a little room for improvement but they seem to be heading in the right direction. read more

Amazing food! I love the cobbler salad and my toddler loves the kids grilled cheese and tomato soup. So yummy! We ordered food for pick up today and it was ready in 10 minutes! I will definitely do that again. Super convenient. read more

Very promising at first look. But, this place simply did not deliver on food quality relative to price. The falafel sandwich was mediocre. It was impossible to eat because it was over garnished with tzatziki. The felafel itself was dry and over cooked. The whole wheat bread was pressed in panini machine rendering it the hard and chewy. I asked to not add onions, and of course it had onions. The beet salad was poorly made with the proportion of greens to other ingredients way to high. The goat cheese was barely sprinkled on the top and the bottom of the salad had an unrecognizable melange of something vegetable. Still not sure what it was. And, the croutons were not fresh. It did have beets in it, to be fair. Sorry, but for the $20 price tag for a sando and a salad, I will go elsewhere next time. read more

Great food every time. Does get busy at lunch time so if you are in a hurry call ahead! Nice place to sit outside on weekends too.

So yummy!!! I love the Kickin' Chicken sandwich... the Sheep Grilled Cheese with manchego and fig is yummy too (even though I would recommend changing the soppressata to prosciutto). I have yet to try the salads but they look great!! Price point is fair for the quality... love this place! read more

Love, love, love. Crave the skirt steak sandwich, and like to pay a visit when in San Francisco.

This place has delicious sandwiches and salads. The wait is always so long which gets very tiring when it's constantly this long. The burrata is my favorite sandwich it is so good! read more

Great salads! And prices aren't too bad considering this is in Marin. Was bummed they didn't have walnuts but their candied pecans were great. I also really appreciate the range of dressing options they have. read more

The only place I don't cry and stomp my feet about paying $20+ for a salad. I'm not a fan of beets but their beets & greens salad is next level. read more

I fancy this location a bunch, along with the Marina location in SF. This space is way bigger and very beautiful. Love their you-pick make your own salads, and the buff chicken sandwich. Great for healthy dinners or a big lunch! I find the salad to be perfect with "light dressing". One point off because the employees all look and act absolutely miserable. read more

Must update that my visits have become increasingly better. No more missing items or mixups! I'm glad they got their stuff together because their food is great. On the pricier side but soooo yummy! Now that they have things under control I will continue to dine here more often read more

Yummy salads w/quality ingredients. A bit expensive, but I'm a believer in "you get what you pay for," and the portions are very generous.

This is a very nice salad/Sandwich place. We had the 'Detox' salad. It looks beautiful with all kinds of special ingredients mixed: quinoa, dried cranberry, radish, kale, and etc. The dressing was light and the whole thing tasted fresh. The Falafel Sandwich is quite special, too. It has house falafel and hummus on sliced whole wheat bread. It was light but also satisfied the appetite. Soup du Jour was pumpkin soup today. The soup was thick. WIth some pumpkin and pomegranate seeds floating inside. Looks and tastes beautifully. read more

01.02.14 with one other A long line to order lunch is always a good sign. We got here around 12:40pm and waited to order for about 10 minutes We get given a number as we were dining in. Then we were off to hunt for a table which was difficult since it was crowded. We got lucky finding an outdoor table. I ordered the Provo sandwich and my friend ordered the spicy tuna salad. My sandwich was good but not all that. Defiantly not worth $10. The salad looked good but I didn't try, my friend said it was food and worth 4 stars. Overall the stall was friendly and food was good. The downside is its on the pricy side and it seemed like a bad system where the wait staff had a hard time trying to find where their orders went -hunt for those numbers. read more

I tried the chinese chicken salad & bun me sandwich and really enjoyed both. Good portion size, ingredients tasted fresh, and the place itself is located in a cute little shopping center. read more

I love Blue Barn, my friends often text me when they go to Blue Barn because they know how often I go. I'm a big fan of the spicy tuna salad, but sometimes I get the arugula salad with the grilled Niman steak. This has the best high quality organic salads and sandwiches with organic locally grown vegetables and meat. read more

The food was more of 4 stars but it's counter service so.... But the real problem here is the price. I've only eaten here the one time and the customer service was nice enough. I got the grilled cheese and it was rally good. Looking at the other salads and sandwiches go out while I waited and I was impressed with the presentation of everything. However it seemed to me that the price is very high for what I saw on the menu. I'm glad I stopped by but if in in the area again I will try one of them any other eateries in the immediate area. read more

the food at Blue Barn is high quality and service is typically OK except when very crowded. My issue is a salad with avocado and chicken ordered at a counter shouldn't cost $15 + tax and tip. Worth going if you are ready to splurge, and it is convenient. Otherwise think about other options. read more
