A lovely welcome from our first visit so it quickly became our regular during our holiday. Ideal seating area outside if the weather allows but inside the pub was very clean and had a very relaxed atmosphere. Gav (the owner) and the 2 ladies that were behind the bar in the evening were very friendly as were the regular customers. A dog friendly pub which suited us as we have 2 who enjoyed the crisps and pork scratchings. Will definitely be back when we're next on the island. Worth a visit!!

What a joy to walk into a proper old school drinking pub with no pretensions , to sit surrounded by customers,locals and holiday makers, actually having conversations . Not a plate of overpriced food in sight. The landlord was a very likeable and knowledgeable man full of great pub based anecdotes and stories. Interior design very welcoming and warm. Wife and I went in three nights in a row. On the third night we watched the single barlady give a brilliant display on how to serve a steady stream of customers with a professional performance I have never seen before and I have visited many a pub over the last fifty plus years. If you want a decent drink based pub in Shanklin this is the pub for you.

This is a good old fashioned English boozer. It seems to be quite a “locals” pub, but even so it has a very friendly and welcoming atmosphere. Two,cask ales were very well kept and were considerably cheaper than pubs in the old Village. If I lived nearby this would definitely be a regular haunt

One of the best value pubs on the island and one of my fairly regular 'watering holes'. Close to the town centre, it is easy enough to find, opposite the town Conservative Club. I am a keen walker and regularly walk the old railway track from Ventnor to Shanklin. I use The Plough and Barleycorn as a convenient stop-off before wending my way back home. I have never experienced anything but pleasant staff there, so am surprised to read any negative comments. In fact Gavin is nearly always behind the bar whenever I visit and he's a great bloke. The pub does not serve food, it is much more of a traditional town pub, serving drinks and 'packet snacks', so if you are looking for lunch, this is not for you.

Made the trip from the Isle of Wight Festival to Shanklin to sample some nice beers in good company. If you're anywhere on the island I recommend you do the same. There was Ringwood Forty Niner and Fullers London Pride on hand pull, Fosters, Heineken, Red Stripe and other lagers on tap plus draught cider including Inch's Gavin the landlord has owned the P&B eight years now. During this time he's sympathetically restored this beautiful building with the toilets receiving the most recent upgrade.

A proper 'town pub' with excellent value beverage prices. I have visited several times when in the area, and on each occasion found it to have a very friendly atmosphere, with plenty of locals in attendance. Top marks for the publican, who on my last visit noticed that one of the beers on my table was cloudy. He walked over to the table, said 'I'm not happy with that' and replaced it with one he had poured from a new barrel that he had just tapped. That kind of diligence and customer service is exceptional and should be commended. Pub was clean and was very comfortable on what was a cold day, due to the open fire. Your family pet will be welcomed too. Please note: The Plough and Barleycorn does not serve food.

They don't do food but they kindly allowed us to eat our takeaway burgers & chips from Rios (bogof on Tuesdays) outside on the picnic benches with our drinks- happy days. Bathroom was beautifully tiled & clean. Nice hooks behind the doors to hang your bag to keep it hygienic.

What an absolute grumpy are sole. Kids are banned from the property and the geezer behind the bar couldn't have been any more unwelcoming. Wouldn't give them my money, hope they go under Edit No mate you were rude from the off. First thing we asked was are you serving food.to which you replied she can't come in here and no were not doing food. Do you get many problems coming to your pub with no money? No I don't suppose you do as you wouldn't go for a meal if you didn't have any money. The fact that you are being argumentative speaks volumes . We walked for another 5 minutes and found a lovely spot that served the best fish platter I have had on the island yet. I fully recommend walking straight past this place amd into any other establishment for a warm welcome. I never give anyone a bad review unless they truly deserve it. Maybe look through my many reviews and see for yourself. Good luck in finding some manners, you need them

We were met at the door by a gruff scruffy member of staff who demanded we moved our bikes in a very rude and abrupt way (that really weren't in the way at all on the wide path) It was very quiet so, it seemed unnecessary, especially in such an aggressive manor. Needless to say, we took our business elsewhere, their loss!

Came in here everyday of our break. Great pub, superb landlord and locals. We were made to feel at home, drinks are very fairly priced, spotlessly clean. The only downside I can see is when you sit in the leather sofas you just want to stay drinking there. (you've been warned 😊). If you like a proper pub this is for you, will always call in whenever we are in Shanklin again.

Attempted to visit today for lunch. I was met with the most discrimination I have ever experienced throughout this pandemic, anywhere in the country. I was greeted by an unmasked member of staff who bluntly said, no mask, no entry. I explained that I’d been hospitalised with two collapsed lungs in recent years and I really struggled to wear one, and am therefore exempt! I would have been more than willing to sit outside but, was horrified by the lack of consideration given to me, especially considering I watched the gentleman walk through the pub unmasked himself. I was horrified to experience such hypocrisy and lack of empathy from this establishment. I certainly do not recommend!!

We arrived in Shanklin on a Saturday night and not knowing the area headed for the tourist pubs in the old village, after being turned away from all of them (apparently all full!) we had seen the Plough on our drive in. Well this was our gain, if you want a good pint in a friendly proper pub this the place to go. They made a couple of Northern people feel very welcome and civid safe our only regret was that we wasted time trying all the others so that we missed out having more than a couple of beers. We loved the place so much we visited for the next two nights of our stay and would be our first point of call on a return visit. Proper pub with real people would recommend this to anyone.

As someone who live to the rear of this bar I and many others have complained about the excessive noise, anti social behaviour, drunks flowing into the rear car park as if it part of the bar's property . They also use the car to park their vehicles as if their own yard without paying for a ticket. The children's slide and climbing area (if approved) is monitored from a distance! With all the anti social behaviour around this area the owners do nothing to help improve it; especially the noise polution this bar and it's clientele create! The "new. Management " promotion is a joke! Just the same anti social crowd! No respect for any neighbour even after the recent "noise complaint" raised with the council! Close the place as it should not have rear access / facilities within a residential area! Gives Ventnor a bad image!
