Carpe Diem - Barnet

Great food at reasonable prices. Big meals so make sure you are hungry when you go. Seats are quite close together. Place is normally packed. Was lucky to seat in the corner this time. Other times I have given up because very busy.

Cute cosy cafe, nice vegetarian options, reasonably priced, would come again! Very well liked in the area it seems, was quite busy but very quick to get a table

My first visit , weekday lunch and it was busy . The bistro is not big but the food was delicious ! My prawn risotto was flavoursome , rich and the prawns were fresh and juicy . Fresh orange juice was refreshing . My friends chicken salad was also v tasty . Food portion was so generous that I had to take away the left over risotto and my hubby also enjoyed it too! Highly recommend and definitely can’t wait to go back ! Can’t find parking space outside the bistro but we parked in the m and s nearby also went in to do shopping .

Food was good , service a bit slow, had to make my own salad dressing, carbonara was a bit salty. Overall it was good

My husband and I we went there to ask if they are still open to have a quick drink after a nice walk to the park, I'm heavily pregnant and i was really in need of a cold drink! The lady was very rude, she barely even make eye contact. I will never step a foot in such a place with such attitude people!
