A good Youngs pub. Always better when they have Youngs Special on (see edit below). Can't speak about the food because I use it as a pub, not a restaurant. Nice to sit outside in one of the spacious booths in the old stables where the dray horses used to be quartered. Inside space is very small and intimate. Staff constantly changing, but usually young and friendly. Ib sponse to owner: you are right, Special has been available consistently lately. Was a problem a year or so ago when it seemed to be off a lot. Could also have been my bad luck! I'll give you your full quota of stars for this and the fact that Young's pubs still manage to retain some atmosphere and get loyalty in return from locals, something other brewery owned pubs could learn from.

Great little pub, plenty of character and great food and selection of beers and gin! Food was excellent, tasty and plentiful. Great coffee to finish. Price was so reasonable for West London. We will be back very soon!

Pub with a traditional atmosphere. Booked lunch there in early November and didn't realise there was a rugby game taking place at the local club (we weren't going to the game), however the local crowd was friendly and gave the place a nice buzz. Staff were attentive and although there were quite a few dishes which were not available on the menu (which is main reason for not giving 5 stars) the food was tasty and overall we enjoyed our time.

Booked a table for 4 for a birthday lunch. We ordered 3 roasts and one soup. We waited about an hour before the soup arrived, then another 10 minutes for 2 of the roasts, then another 20 minutes (an hour and a half in total) for the 3rd roast. We did make bar staff aware of the delay and got a vague apology about the kitchen being busy. The manager offered us a free drink as compensation but we'd have just preferred the food to be served together and on time! A shame as the food was pretty good. Perhaps not somewhere to visit at busy times.

Our experience at the Coach & Horses was regrettably subpar. My dear friend, visiting from Canada, and I found ourselves at the Coach & Horses just after 10 p.m. on Sunday evening, having come directly from a delightful screening at Olympic Studios. We were in search of a final drink before parting ways and, as per Google Maps, were pleased to discover that the establishment was purportedly open until 11 p.m. However, scarcely three minutes after our drinks had been ordered, a rather brusque waitress approached and informed us that we had no more than 15 minutes to finish, as the pub would be closing imminently. This was perplexing, given that the listed hours clearly stated an 11 p.m. closing time. My friend, quite understandably puzzled, rechecked the hours, confirming that we were indeed not mistaken. To make matters worse, the waitress then proceeded to patrol the pub area, casting repeated glances in our direction as though we were unwelcome guests overstaying our welcome. The entire experience was rather unseemly and most disappointing. It is my sincere hope that the management might consider employing staff who are better acquainted with both the nature of their role and the actual hours during which the establishment is supposed to operate. A little more grace and decorum in service would not go amiss.

Pleasant outdoor space with noisy people and too many artificial plants. An old pub that attracts a young crowd. Publican claimed in their response afterwards that there are no artificial plants - so I went to check, just in case I was being unfair. In the courtyard at the side are large cabins with heavy weight tables and seating. The ceilings and posts are draped with obviously fake wisteria and ivy. There are some real plants on the other side and further in to the garden is a fake lawn, though that is surrounded by real plants. Fake plants are not a sin but are just a bit sad when real equivalents are so much nicer. Also please don't accuse a customer of lying or of posting a false statement. Truth counts, especially in reviews.

They served burnt food after waiting 50 minutes and the replacement food was served raw and this was done on purpose so that we would leave the pub. I only told the Landlady that is was disgraceful to be served burnt food after waiting that long and that I had taken my elderly mother out for something to eat whilst shopping. She was rude and ignored us and said I have served you a Replacement. I said it was not cooked, the dough on the pastry was soggy and raw. She said you only ordered a bar snack. What does it matter what I ordered, the fact the 1st one was burnt and rock hard after waiting 50 minutes, the 2nd pasty was served raw. I could have had food poisoning. I have never been treated so badly in a pub in my life. Just because the Landlady runs a pub in Barnes she thinks it is OK to treat customers this way. Just because we are not spending lots of money on drinks and food. The bar staff even lied when I asked what Brewery ran the pub. I was thoroughly upset and am horrified by the terrible time and experience I had with my mother who is very elderly. The Landlady is rude, extremely bad manners and employs staff who can't cook. She should be ashamed of herself for the way she dealt with me and serving me a pastry item raw just so we would leave the pub. I have a right to complain and feel I have every right to write this bad review. That she deserves to receive.

Parecía que había unos 8 miembros del personal ayer, pero la espera para simplemente tomar una copa en el bar era totalmente inaceptable. Una joven muy agradable pero no muy experimentada tratando de servir todas las bebidas. Dos jóvenes tal vez llevando bebidas al jardín, pero obviamente no se les da el mejor uso. No parecía haber nadie a cargo y tuvimos que beber de vasos de plástico porque no había nadie limpiando los usados. No estaba demasiado ocupado en el jardín. Parecía que todos estaban haciendo lo que pensaban que tenían que hacer para sobrevivir. Deben haber perdido muchos clientes que se dieron por vencidos o simplemente tomaron una copa y se fueron. Ciertamente, me alegré de irme a otra parte para un mejor servicio. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . ¡Vamos chicos busquen el significado de hospitalidad y servicio, y por favor pónganse las pilas!

Clearly a place for the locals, with loads of them in the pub having their usual pints. Crispy whitebait needed some additional seasoning, but a solid starter. Both of us ordered burgers. The burger could do with a little fresh tomatoes, lettuce, etc, aside from the gherkin which was a nice touch. Bacon needed more browning. Chips were nicely salted and crispy. Overall great service from the staff, and space for improvement with the food, which was a fairly limited mains menu (possibly because it was a quiet Sunday evening). Would have been nice to have a fish main, fish and chips? Two beers and one juice ordered for the total bill (with food) of just under £60.

Hired the outbuilding "The Stables" for my son's 4th birthday party - it is an excellent space for private events/parties with private bar. The event and bar staff were very helpful in helping organise the room as well as creating a buffet menu at request suitable for children and seperate options for adults - the food came out promptly as the entertainment was coming to an end so the party went very smoothly. We were not charged a room hire fee and only paid for the food and drinks. Would highly recommend for events of all types.

Very cute and cosy pub with friendly service but the food was hit and miss. Burger and chips were good (Sunday menu so didn't get to try the pies), Mac and cheese was also good but the pork belly for the roast was dry and not great, carrot mash was underseasoned, and small amounts of kale/parsnips for nearly £20. Also the Cauliflower cheese was vegan - this was not signposted apart from tiny VG in the allergens. With cauliflower CHEESE - being a vegan version is a big deal - the menu item should be called 'Vegan Cauliflower Cheese' given it's made not with béchamel and actual cheese but whatever random coconut oil stuff. It was properly disgusting and had to send it back as I thought the milk had soured. (and I eat a lot of vegetarian food so not hating on vegans).

All my comments remain the same from my last review except it was lovely to be able to have a proper chat with Jay the GM. He and his wife, Mariah, have put so much love and effort into this beautiful pub you have to see it with your own eyes. Food wise, they cater for all. I have a gluten allergy and the staff always make sure to hand me to a manager on shift to ensure my dietary requirement is met with extreme caution. Lovely to not feel like a burden or inconvenience. Thank you all so much for another fantastic visit! Beautiful vintage exterior, enormous garden, fantastic food and the best Guinness in Barnes.

She ordered the spinach and ricotta roll which was new on the menu this summer. She said it was the perfect amount on a hot day and not heavy on her stomach. A bottle of Whispering Angel to wash it down with as recommended by Paulina perfected our afternoon in the heat last week. Thanks again all.

Memorable 70th birthday party. Family and friends from 18months to 84 loved it. Wonderful food, plenty to drink and lots of fun. The Stables and garden area are great spaces. Sam and his crew were excellent hosts and couldn't do enough to help us from initial planning to the day itself. Thoroughly recommended.

Nice pub, beers and friendly staff. Lunch on Sunday really below par unfortunately. Otherwise, nice time had by all.

It's hard to leave a bad review when staff are friendly and not responsible for what comes out of the kitchen. But we were misled by the high rating on Google into booking for a special occasion. There's nothing special about this place other than that it's in Barnes (and you have to put up with the planes). This venue is neglected. For instance, the garden chairs are stained and damaged (and the cushions left all wet). The toilets are in poor state: broken toilet seat and useless toilet holders that just rip the paper so people end up leaving rolls all over the floor. Missing hooks so there's nowhere to put your bag, nasty lock fittings... you get the general idea. The same neglect applied to our food, both meat and vegetarian. Ignore the crisp, proud photographs. Like other reviewers who rated the food badly, we got yellowed lettuce, limp & wrinked root vegetables, soggy brown kale, tough meat, meh gravy, overly sweet desserts. I don't know what makes a chef feel ok about serving food like this because it just isn't up to par. Some of it was inedible and we got graciously refunded. So can't fault the waiting staff who deserve five stars. Probably fine for drinks only but be careful where you sit.

Came here for a 70th birthday part hosted in the barn. The pub has a lot of space! The platters we were served were delicious and the staff were lovely. Would recommend and would definitely come here again ☺️

Lovely location. Small pub inside but outside seating was great with heating. Friday night was busy but food and drink was quick when ordered via the app.

The worst roast I've ever had. The potatoes so old and grey no amount of their tasteless gravy could save them, and the pork such a cheap cut, it was 70% inedible fat and 30% tough and nasty meat. Very, very disappointing fro a venue with so much potential

Nice outdoor seating area and that’s about it for the plusses. We ordered 4 starters/ sides. Pork belly, chips, salad and cauliflower cheese. The pork belly was hands down the worst I’ve ever had, tasteless and no crackling. The cauliflower cheese was dull and also largely tasteless. Chips and salad were decent. At around 22:00 there was a call for last drinks. We waited a bit as we weren’t sure whether we wanted another drink, during this time we asked the barman whether we could stay until about 22:45 if we bought a drink and he said no problem. There was then 1min call for last drinks. I shot up to the bar immediately and asked for two drinks. I was swiftly told by the female manager in a rather abrubt fashion that I couldn’t get a drink. I politely tried to reason with her and said that literally 20 seconds before there was a last drink call. We had already spent over £100 at the pub. She had a strange rude attitude. After trying to reason a second time and getting nowhere. We decided to leave. Won’t be going back. Update: After receiving the reply to my review from Jay Karter I emailed him three weeks ago and I have had no response from neither him nor anyone else at the Coachandhorses pub. Why ask someone to get in contact if you don’t reply to them?

Delightful village pub with a big beer garden. Yummy chicken wings and curly fries and White Bait.

I hosted an amazing birthday party there this Saturday. Sam , the Aussie event manager was so welcoming and kind, couldn’t have achieved such an amazing party without his expertise. Super grateful to Sam and the fun team that were on that night, it definitely was an awesome night. Highly recommend Sam, worth his weight in gold-)

Thank you for helping with organising our school get together. It’s such a lovely space in the garden and the function room is a great size! Food and service was excellent and the whole evening was perfect!

Staff are really rude and unprofessional!!! Don’t go as it will be a bad experience for a high price. Waiters and managers standing at the bar chatting when you sitting on a dirty table and no one cares!!!!

I often drink a lemonade and bar staff will come and swipe up the glass before I even finish it if I take my eye off of it. Staff have come up to my group offering a free drink for a five star review. I’ve heard stories of bad attitude from pub staff from my colleagues. Any other local pub is better in my experience, and also far more welcoming. Food is decent enough if you’re on a plant based diet.

when arrived very noisy loud wih kids running and screaming and shouting later they left. In an afternoon on Saturday which we tried to be earlier and had called to see if can go even earlier we were told quiet but that is ok. Service great but each staff seemed mostly in such rush but last one asked if all ok. many thanks. Food compared to price is too high but that is most pubs. At least they have different and more food on the menu. Portions quite small especially sea bass but tastes great.
