The miniature village is free to explore and extremely well done; the buildings are great, the hedges are clipped, the windmills and water wheels are working. However, all the buildings could do with a good clean, the waterways need cleaning out also. Then I would give 5 stars

Easy to find, right next to main highway, room to park, the miniature village nice but needs updating, shop and cafe very good, worth visit to see clogs being made, owner himself will do the demonstration and very helpful.

Went to the Clog Barn with a social group and found that the service was very slow, the highly publicised pancakes were very thick, dry and chewy and quite a few people at our table were dissatisfied with their meals. Coffee? Frothy no-taste! Set up for tourists, not much to offer for locals. Probably wouldn't go back. The redeeming thing... More

I visited the Clog Barn with my wife on a wet, wild & stormy weekend in Coffs. Rather than stay indoors, we went to the Clog Barn and thoroughly enjoyed our experience. We picked up some very reasonably priced souvenirs and watched a demonstration (free) of a clog being made. As we were visiting from furthest away, we even got... More

Stopped in to see the model village, which was beginning to fade, but which still elicted oohs from some of the tourists. The smaller children enjoyed watching the two worse-for-wear trains go round the tracks, while the 'adult children' of the group imagined having such a model village in their backyard. The gift shop held a selection of gifts and... More

The shop is small worth stopping if wanting a short coffee and re fresh stop. Clog making demo was good to see particularly for the children. Didn't pay the fee to see the model train out the back, very small area to view. Toilets clean. New outside deck being finished for outside dining looks good. Gluten free options on menu... More

We had heard about the Clog barn so popped in for a visit, There's a clog making demonstration several times a day and the clog which is made is given to the person from farthest away and as we were from England we got the clog! There's also a model village which you have to pay to enter but it... More

Ate here for a late lunch in Coffs recently when travelling through. I have to stop here whenever I'm in the area as the pancakes are delicious! I couldn't even pick a favourite as they're all good. The staff are always friendly and I never feel it's a hassle when I take my children. I would have given it 5/5... More

You can see a lot of work has gone into this when it was built, but it doesn't seem like much has happened lately and appears to have gone into decline. The basic thing is a free clog making show that runs a few times a day at the front of the building, and a paid for model village at... More
