Barnhill's Cafe, Bar & Grill

Came for breakfast, food was amazing! Crab Cake Benedict and husband had Spicy bowl. Yum, 100% recommend! Friendly staff, Jennifer is great!

Great location and cute place with 2nd level outdoor seating and a partial
Ocean view. We were there in February for breakfast when they were still in their “soft opening”. The bar isn’t open yet and when it is, this might be a good outdoor seating lunch place. However, we so far are not that impressed with the long wait for food and the food itself. The menu is a bit fussy with some overly complicated dishes. Here’s an example: my husband had the “meat lover’s bowl” which was basically just hash browns, a sausage patty, two pieces of bacon and omelette but piled on top of each other in a salad bowl instead of on a plate. It seemed kind of pointless, like they wanted to serve something different sounding but really it’s just eggs, meat and hash browns. I had eggs Benedict which was nothing spectacular—good but the same as you’d have anyplace. I asked for my eggs poached medium-well and instead they fried them well cooked. The breakfast potatoes are deep-fried. I waited a long time for my cappuccino because apparently only one person can make them (?) and she was waiting on other tables.
The waiter was very friendly but he was also very busy. The bathroom doors also were having issues where they wouldn’t lock.
All in all, great location, great outdoor seating options and could become a great lunch place, but it won’t be our go-to breakfast place and they need to get some things together.

I had the Crab Benedict and was excellent, the best I had around so far. They were still in the soft opening setting, so I believe there is still more potential to come when is operating in fully, I am giving the credit ahead for what I have experienced so far. The bar wasn’t working and neither was the top deck, which has a beautiful view. The menu was still small, more towards a brunch type of food. Although the food was great and service was good too.

Came here for breakfast, and loved it. Loved the cleanliness, ambiance, and service. My daughter has allergies and the general manager went out of her way to accommodate. Food was great and overall experience was 10/10. Would definitely come back, especially once they open full menu and have dinner service!

First time and we each had a cup of delicious corn chowder. We then split the smash burger and it was cooked perfectly. It was a bit messy to eat but somehow we finished every juicy, savory bite. The Potato Petals (Fries) were very good. My only suggestion would be to find or prepare the bun so it doesn’t crumble. Maybe a softer bread that is more pliable. Kelly was a great host and Jennifer was our friendly server. We’ll be back for sure. Note that they are a new establishment and so our expectation was set to expect even more greatness to come.
