Barley - Bar à Céréales apparaît comme un spot de brunch chic et cosy, apprécié pour son ambiance vive et son menu fusion moyen-orientale agrémenté d'un bar de céréales. Les réservations sont souvent conseillées car l'endroit est fréquenté. La nourriture est saluée pour son équilibre et sa créativité, avec des coups de coeur pour le full mezze, le plateau halloumi, les oeufs turcs et le pain dore creme brulee, tandis que certains trouvent les pancakes au matcha gommeux ou estiment que les portions ne justifient pas le prix. Les boissons plaisent aussi, mais certaines arrivent froides ou manquent d'un supplement de matcha. Le niveau de bruit peut etre eleve et le service parfois lent ou inegal lors des heures d'affluence, meme si le personnel est globalement sympathique et attentif. Dans l'ensemble, l'experience reste seduisante pour ses saveurs et son ambiance, et l'idee de mixer cereales avec le brunch attire et donne envie de revenir.
Chicken waffle (7/10): Good but was a bit too sweet
Matcha pancakes (5/10): You don't taste the matcha very much
Falafel eggs (8/10): Pretty good
Latte drinks (3/10): Got the sésame & miso Caramel but they're both very gimmicky & are nothing special, you can barely taste the specialty flavors
Their matcha drinks were sold out by the time we got there at 12pm. Would try that & the hallumi dish next time instead.
The avocado toast was super normal, nothing wow about it.
The pancake which comes with dulche de leche was super super sweet! I know you are going for something sweet, but then it's 1000 times more than highest sweet you ever tried!
Coffee was very normal too!
Nothing special to pay 70$ for these plus an orange juice!
Obviously you pay for influencers fee!

We walked in with birthday balloons, & right off the bat, Youssef was so accommodating - suggesting where we can put them for the birthday girl. We felt right at ease, with his kindness & banter. Once the birthday girl arrived, he offered her a birthday drink. It was very sweet & thoughtful. We ordered our food & drinks & everything was absolutely amazing. I had the fried chicken waffles, while the rest had the fried halloumi dish & the avocado toast. The coffee was also so delicious. Afterwards, Youssef brought over a taste of their caramel-hazel nut pancakes, & the matcha pancakes. It was such a wonderful treat. It was so wonderful feeling their hospitality & their attention to detail, & Youssef just wanted us to have a great time. He also gave us a tour of their speakeasy - we can't wait to come back!! We had the best experience, highly recommend!!
Halloumi plate was great! Matcha pancakes are a bit salty, & the taste of matcha is really subtle, but it isn't too sweet, which is good. The portion for the pancakes is really big, it gets a bit boring so in my opinion it is best shared. Chai latte has ginger, which feels great to have in winter. It's sprinkled with cinnamon on top. We reserved for 3 people at 9:45am on a cold December 23rd, Monday, but there was no need to.
Went there for breakfast..had pancakes ..they were good but too sweet ..we ordered fruits on the side & they were not fresh ..I find it overpriced..could be a bit more clean the place ...the mirrors looked very dirty & the sofa as well ..
I recently revisited this establishment after a positive experience last year when I ordered the Gaufre Farcie au Halloumi avec Poulet. On my previous visit, the dish featured delicious sweet potato waffles with cheese in the center, which I thoroughly enjoyed. Naturally, I expected the same this time, but to my disappointment, the menu had changed, & the price had increased significantly. What I received instead was a regular waffle with chicken, which was underwhelming at best. For the same price, I could have easily gone to another breakfast spot nearby & received better quality food. The flavors were bland & did not remotely compare to the original dish I had previously enjoyed. Furthermore, I noticed that when ordering online, the price for the same dish is even higher. I fail to see what justifies this increase-there was nothing special about the regular waffle with a meager portion of chicken & eggs that I was served. To add to the frustration, the restaurant's website still shows the dish with the original, correct waffle, which is misleading & only adds to my disappointment. The quality of the food has noticeably declined, & the changes to the dish are baffling. What was once an exceptional meal is now a subpar offering at an inflated price. This establishment needs to reassess its menu, pricing, & overall quality if it hopes to retain customers.
I used to go every week for their sweet potato waffles, since they've changed the recipe to regular I haven't enjoyed it would go back if they put the waffles back on the menu.

I used to go there all the time for the sweet potato waffles which were excellent & very unique. They've since been removed from the menu. They also removed most of their'bols'. Score used to be much higher.
The matcha pancakes... eh, I wasn't too crazy about it. They were ALRIGHT taste wise (maybe i expected more of a sweet flavor). I'm glad i got a good portion. However, the bar table was field of white dusts 🥲 I'd recommend to be careful about it, especially with the glasses absorbing dusts Other than that, pretty looking restaurant. & thank you to Youssef for serving me :)
The food was so good & I would recommend the halloumi plate to everyone because it is so good just chief kiss. I am personally not a sweet brunch person so i loved it! & also their latte tastes so good. We also had salad & pancakes which were good too! & the salad my sister loved it! 🎀🌷✨ People complains that the place is a bit pricey but i would say the atmosphere, the service & the food is worth it! Because i have been there thrice now & every single time the girls were so sweet & nice! 🤍
