About

The Rode Family has proudly been serving Southern New Jersey and beyond for over 130 years. Whether it's our popular BBQ from Rode's Catering in the summer, a delicious meal at our restaurant and bar, Rode's Fireside, or a casual affair in our historic barn, we are proud to serve our growing South Jersey community.

Rode's Barn, located conveniently behind Rode's Fireside in Swedesboro, NJ, dates back to 1940 and was built by the Rode family for their poultry wholesale business. Today, the casual and rustic barn is used for any type of event including casual weddings, holiday parties, baby and bridal showers, birthday parties, engagement parties, music events, photoshoots, movie production and more! Please inquire about your event and we would be happy to try to accommodate your needs.

*Maximum capacity of 100

*Rode's Catering available for custom, full service catering. An Event Coordinator will work with you to design a menu tailored to your interests and budget

*Heat available/ No air conditioning (Due to the heat, we do not book events in the month of July)

*Bar/Platform for bands or DJs]

*Rounds tables and standard black folding chairs included in rental fee

* Wedding rental fees vary based on the month and day of the week (5 hrs) $1600-$2000

*Parking on site available

* Local hotels include The Hampton Inn and Holiday Inn in Logan Township, NJ (located next to one another and within 5 miles from the barn)

* The barn was not built with plumbing so there are no bathrooms inside- Full bathrooms with running water, heat and air, flushing toilets, etc are located directly outside of the barn

*There are no bridal suites on location

*Ceremonies on site if permitted. Please note that due to the size of the barn and maximum occupancy, all ceremonies held on site are done while guests are seated at their dinner tables. Unfortunately, the size of the barn does not allow for chairs to be separate from tables if guest count exceeds 50 guests.

******* All inquiries may be made through our website at RodesBarn.com. Due to the extremely high demand for the barn, we do our best to respond as soon as possible. Rode's Catering, the in house caterer for Rode's Barn, specializes in off-premise full service catering. So in addition to the multiple weekly events that are now in the barn, we also care for our multiple off-premise jobs. So all patience with our catering coordinator/s is appreciated, as we are a small family owned and operated company. We will do our best to respond in a timely manner based on the order emails are received as well as importance******* Thank you!! - The Rode Family

Amazing, Hassle Free, and Beautiful!

Since this was my first wedding I went in very anxious....wanting everything to be perfect for my wife. (Yes I, the husband, decorated). Alyssa and Kaila were AMAZING! They put my worries to bed immediately. They were understanding, communicative, responsive to any and all questions, and worked with me every step of the way. The staff was awesome throughout the night (especially Cameron who made surey wife got the last smore). The barn is perfect for a beautiful and rustic setting, everything was clean..and looked wonderful. The food was out of this world. Our guests were blown away with how good it was. All in all it was the best wedding I've ever been to (and not just because it was mine).

We were Married on 3/10/18 at Rode's Barn. Our wedding was perfect in so many ways. The barn is so rustic and cool. All of our guests loved the venue and atmosphere. Alyssa and her staff were amazing. Easy to work with. They made sure all the details were perfect! The food was excellent as well. We went with BBQ and our guests are still talking about how great the food was.
The only thing we would have changed would be to have buttlerd apps instead of station. Not really a huge problem but we all know that the initial line to get your first drinks are long so it would be nice to offer the apps while people were waiting in line. Again, not a big deal.
Over all our wedding was Perfect!
Thank you Rode's Team
