This Adorably Quaint Barn In Missouri Serves Delicious Food

The Barn restaurant in Crestwood, Missouri, offers a unique dining experience in a historic barn setting with breakfast, lunch, and dinner options.

Usually, when someone asks if you were raised in a barn, it's to point out your sloppiness or lack of manners. However, Missouri has a way of re-purposing rustic barns into clean, beautiful spaces. In fact, you can even spend the night in a gorgeous barn tucked away in the small town of Callao. While you can't post up at this particular spot for the night, you can enjoy an amazing meal at this cute restaurant modeled after a barn. Check it out.

Before arriving at The Barn, you'll pull up to the property of the Thomas Sappington House Museum.

The Thomas Sappington House Museum is a National Historic Landmark tucked away in a lovely 2.5 acre park in the community of Crestwood, Missouri.

The house has been restored and renovated to give visitors a peek of what life was like in the early 1800's.

Within earshot of the house museum, you'll find The Barn restaurant.

In July 1969, the Barn was built as an honorarium to Carolyn C. McDonnell who directed the Sappington House renovation.

It was modeled after a 19th century barn that used to be on the property. Today, it is a full-service restaurant that serves breakfast, lunch and dinner.

The Barn's breakfast is perfect for early risers and slow morning diners, alike.

From 6 a.m. to 8 a.m., you can snag the Early Bird Special which is the classic Barn Breakfast at a discounted price.

If you can't make it for lunch, their lunch is just as amazing too.

Choose from a quality selection of sandwiches, soups and salads. The loaded quesadillas are to die for.

Recently, The Barn started serving dinner and so far, no complaints.

In April of 2016, The Barn added dinner to their selections of meals served. For a bite to eat in the evening, visit the Barn on Thursday-Saturday from 5 p.m. to 9 p.m.

When the weather's nice, dine outside on their beautiful patio.

Don't forget to visit the loft gift shop before you leave.

Find a unique gift or souvenir to take home when you peruse through their selection of home decor, spices, candles and other goods.

After you chow down, feel free to take a stroll around the property.

Not too far from The Barn, you'll find a duck pond.

If you enjoy cycling, take Grant's Trail to the restaurant.

Grant's Trail is a beautiful paved 1.1 mile recreational path. It's open for the public and during the summer months, it's filled with cyclists, joggers and walkers enjoy a day out.
