   We’ve been dining at the Inn at Barley Sheaf for many years and have celebrated so many special occasions there — we knew the previous owners, Mark and Deena, and always loved the food and the setting. So when we arrived recently and discovered the restaurant had changed ownership (now called George Kaufman at the Inn), we weren’t sure what to expect. To our surprise and delight, the experience was absolutely extraordinary. The staff was warm and welcoming, and Ahmad — part of the new ownership group — came by to personally check on us and make sure we were enjoying everything. The food? Truly exceptional. It reminded us of meals we’ve had at Michelin-rated restaurants. Every course was thoughtful, beautiful, and full of flavor. We started with a chilled, whipped zucchini soup — soft and airy with floral notes that added amazing texture and depth. The next course, a lightly tempura langoustine topped with fish roe, was stunning — crisp, delicate, and packed with layers of flavor. For the main, the Jurgielewicz duck breast with smoked parsnip, rye berries, miso apricot, and taré was just spectacular. Every bite was balanced, rich, and memorable. It’s hard to capture in words — you really need to go and taste it for yourself. We’ve loved every meal we’ve ever had at Barley Sheaf, but this was something new and very special. Congrats to the new team — we’re so excited to see where this goes and feel lucky to have a place like this in Bucks County.

   We have been dining here for many years and have never been disappointed. The Barley Sheaf restaurant is now called " Kauffmans at the Inn " . The original owners sold out last winter. The new chef is very experienced and the wait staff has been there for years. The food was incredible! We had starters and main courses and both were amazing. Our waitress and the rest of the team couldn't have been better. It's still a BYOB but they have applied for a Liquor License.

   We had not come for brunch in a little while and so we were a little disappointed in the menu choices and the size of the portions which seem much smaller than before. The quiche was delicious but tiny. Most people would understand the increase in price if the portion remained the same .There was limited choice for our vegetarian and lactose intolerant friends and suggestions to change the menu item were met with apparent displeasure from our server, although when the chef was asked he was agreeable. It made us feel rather uncomfortable. The frittata could have easily been made without bacon for example? It was not explained that the cauliflower soup was not a vichysoisse soup but aerated like a cream cheese. It had very little cauliflower taste and was its appearance was disconcerting. The halibut was well prepared but poorly seasoned- I had to ask for salt and pepper. The desserts and cheese plates were tasty and satisfying. We kept having to ask for refills of coffee and hot water and this visit we did not feel that the service warranted a 20 % tip but it was included. Perhaps they were distracted by the wedding?

   This is a great special occasion restaurant. Staff is very caring. Place and view is outstanding. Worth going in daylight. Menu is very inventive. Scallops were some of the best I have ever have, although I’m not quite sure of the sauce used. Was quite spicy for a delicate tasting scallop.

    Our experience was wonderful. We had many previous experiences, but it was our guests' first visit. Our dinners were exquisite, the service impeccable, and the ambience as expected. If I had to find a flaw, it was the expanse of the table. We were a party of 4 and it was often difficult to speak across a table that was very wide, especially with background noise.
