    Attended for a birthday meal. Had a lovely seating area in the back away from it all. Was busy when we got there (every table occupied) but they were attentive and food was lovely

    Enjoyable evening, the food was excellent, the only problem was that it seemed to be short staffed, although they were very good, the service was slow.

    We wanted to book in the restaurant to shield us from the high level of noise from the bar. However, because Saturday was a Quiz Night the noise in the restaurant was so high my wife and I could hardly speak to one another for most of our two hour stay. This is a problem you should pre warn customers about. Mike Narracott

    Catered for a coeliac diner. Food quality and portion sizes were what we’d expect from a good pub restaurant. We weren’t rushed – and even when the deserts didn’t go through and we had an extended wait we didn’t mind as it’s a relaxing place. Our first visit and we will go again 👍🏻

    My husband, our dog and I had a lovely meal on Saturday night at the Barley Mow. The pub was busy, but not overwhelmingly loud and we could have a conversation over our meal. The food was great! Simple, generous pub meal at a very reasonable price. A very positive experience!
