Perfect lunch spot with plenty to choose from on the menu. I love their toasties 😋 usually gets busy from 11:30am onwards but they’re always accommodating and service is always great. Takeaway options are available also for those on the go just ring to pre-order.

Delicious homemade food. Great value for money and a warm, welcoming atmosphere. I ordered a late and 1/2 sandwich (coronation chicken) and soup, which came with homemade coleslaw 2 slices of thick bread crisps and side salad.

I’m an Asian man I normally have spicy 🌶️ food but I love to taste different food. I went to this place for breakfast and I had toasted sandwiches with bacon cheese etc…. Service was exceptional, the staff incredibly good. The food was out of this world. I recommend to anyone this cafe.

First time in Barrow and on the lookout for good food and coffee. The Fig Tree did not disappoint on either count. Very friendly and efficient service. It has a lovely atmosphere, clearly the cafe is well regarded by the local community, always a great sign.....

We were visting Barrow for our first time for a Motorcycle rally and after a stroll into town we were looking for somewhere to have a reasonably heathy lunch and were lucky to find the Fig Tree. The soup and sandwiches were well presented,tasty and filling,service was great and with a friendly touch even though we were strangers , my double espresso was better than any offering from the big coffee chains too.

I’m originally from Barrow and was up visiting my family. I haven’t been to the Fig Tree since I was a kid but much prefer going to local owned places. The Fig Tree didn’t let me down. Very smiley team, incredibly clean and very quick service. Eat local you won’t regret it!

The Fig Tree restaurant is small but the food and service are excellent. It's clean and inviting. At lunch time it is not unusual to have to wait for a table as it is such a popular place to eat.
