The Barley Mow in Pendle

Second visit for a Sunday Lunch. Compared to last time this was a total disappointment. Roast was flooded in so much gravy everything was soggy. The vegetable selection consisted to 2 slices of carrot, 2 french beans and a couple of slithers of a chopped up parsnip. The roasties were tiny and whilst they looked overdone they were actually soggy, even where they weren't sitting in the gravy swamp. Lamb however was delicious as was the cauliflower cheese (£4 extra), the beef was tough. Sticky toffee pudding was a flat slab of sadness and the apple and rhubarb crumple didn't have a proper crumble topping and the custard was so thin. Drinks are served in nice glasses

We were recommended the Sunday roast here ,so booked ,I’m sorry to say it was one of the worst roasts I ever had ,the lamb was rolled and cut of a roll with stuffing inside ,laying on a few strips of vegetables ,roast potatoes were soft ,and a Yorkshire pudding! very disappointing for the price . Being £45,90 For two roasts

Lovely pub, great decor, fantastic chef and amazing food. We had dinner- mains and desserts. Food was delicious, beautifully presented and would definitely recommend this pub.

Service was excellent for the most part. I asked the waitress if it was permissible to have vegetables instead of tomato salad with the sea bream. She acquiesced and appeared to write this down. The sea bream arrived - with tomato salad! The sea bream was nothing special either. I would return as it’s a lovely venue in an ideal location but I would order something simpler like a burger.

Just returned from a fabulous lunch at The Barley Mow. Excellent friendly service and such attention to detail from both the server and the kitchen - in a party of 7 we had a coeliac (gluten free) and a dairy free (intolerance). A lovely choice for all on the menu and a confidence that they understood our needs. Highly recommend this pub.

Having visited this pub for Sunday lunch on many occasions and thoroughly enjoyed the food we were very disappointed at the drop in standard today when we visited. Normally an excellent roast with good tender meat and plenty of fresh vegetables the lunch today was way below previous experience. My roast beef was tough and overdone and the vegetables, where previously served separately, were a shredded mess under the meat and potatoes. The whole meal was distinctly average and for £21 per head a sad shadow of meals previously. I understand the pub has been taken over recently and a new chef is in place. Unfortunately, the food, and in today’s case the service too, was much to be desired. I will be finding a better venue for my Sunday roast in the future.

We drove from Edenbridge, just to visit the Barley Mow pub. The worst customer service I have experienced for donkeys years. Went into the pub at 11:45 yesterday, for a drink with my wife and 3 year old son. There must be over 20 tables in there, set up for lunches, all empty apart from 1 family having a chat. We walked in, went to the bar and of the 8+ staff members who all ignored us, one lady acknowledged our existence when we went to sit down as she said "do you have a booking?" I said we only want a drink, we had to stand, in an empty pub, until she confirmed we could sit there until 2pm. But we only wanted a drink, so she didn't listen to our requirements. No staff came to the table, so I went over and said, my wife would like a coffee and cake, can I see the desert menu, I was told as we didn't have a booking we can't have the desert menu! I looked over at who i presume was a manager, as he was older and he looked away! So we walked out and had to drive into Oxted town centre. We will never come back to this pub. Terrible service on Mothers Day. If you're not a public house where the public can come in and order a drink four hours after you've opened, don't advertise as a pub. You're a restaurant with bad customer service.

We enjoyed a great meal at The Barley Mow. Food was really tasty, loved the fish pie and the cheesecake was truly delicious. Our waiter Josh was friendly and attentive, just the right amount of time between main & pudding and great knowledge of the wine list.

We had a fantastic meal at the Barley Mow last night. Excellent service and food. The liver and bacon was delicious as was the fish pie and burgers. The cheesecake was one of the best I have ever tasted. 10 out of 10 for the new chef. Our waiter was polite, friendly and chatty and knew the menu well and gave great recommendations. Nothing was too much trouble! All in all a great night. We will be back

I'd like to express my thanks for a really enjoyable visit last weekend. We haven’t been to the Barley mow for many a year, so it was delightful to find it in good shape, with excellent and attentive service and superb food(chicken pie 👍) There was a pleasant but quiet atmosphere, and no piped music, which was a real joy. I’m certain we’ll be back soon.

Under new management and the change is noticeable. Food lovely and service much improved. It was good before but now I would say it is excellent. Very attentive staff. Thank you for a lovely meal.

Very slow service although not busy. We sat for at least 30 minutes before our order was taken and had to request plates to be cleared. Had to ask for dessert menu not offered them. Food was average, some dishes better than others. My opinion is that staff dealing with food should have long hair tied back. One of the waitresses serving us had long hair that was hanging over the plates of food as she served. Not impressed won’t be returning.

Amazing food amazing people amazing service. A nice, cozy place to eat. We will definitely come back for another visit potentially for a Birthday.

Judging by some of the reviews I must have chosen an off day for all of us to experience some of the worst cooked food I've ever been served with( apart from the service which was friendly and efficient.) Inedible overcooked dry fish pie and burgers cooked to death with soggy chips and sad side dishes a wasted day at some expense. Won't be going back in a hurry

We booked for lunch on New Years Eve as we were en route to friends in Tandridge. I thought I would try a final Roast Turkey meal of the season, and my girlfriend ordered a pie. At £23 I was shocked to discover stuffing was...

Absolutely shocking. Has always been our go to pub for the last 5 years ahead of the Haycutter and Carpenters Arms but we had a thoroughly disappointing Christmas lunch. Service unbelievably slow (and not even busy) and rude when we enquired about when the food...

We went for Sunday lunch roast which was very disappointing. The prawn cocktail was supposed to have brandy in the sauce but we feel there was no brandy. Normally prawn cocktail is served in a dish or glass but this was served on flat plates...

Amazing food and drink, Friendly service and nice atmosphere, no wonder it’s busy, cannot fault. Would highly recommend.

Something has gone very wrong here! Usually a good vibe and excellent food, sadly our latest trip was anything but. The waiting staff appeared harassed and the manageress had the sort of face on that stopped you wanting to ask for anything! She was in...

Wonderful setting, great menu and amazing food. I would highly recommend it for Lunch or Dinner. They do breakfast but I have not had it yet but I would imagine it's fantastic.

Looking at reviews, we visited this pub on Sunday afternoon to order Roast dinner. The roast was £21, so was expecting near perfect meal. The vegetables were delicious and plenty of them, but the roast potatoes were so tough I couldn't even cut with a...

We visited in a Saturday in early September having booked the night before. The service was superb. Friendly, inclusive, helpful, knowledgable and hugely welcoming. There were 7 of us (4 adults 3 kids) and the food for all of us was exceptional. Fish pie, fish and chips, kids meals - all brilliant. The chef’s special (pork tenderloin with sriracha slaw was the best pub food I’ve ever eaten. An excellent generous portion size and great cooking. We will definitely be back.

Haven't been here for a couple of years. This pub/restaurant is under new management and has been so for three weeks. The staff are very welcoming and friendly. So are a couple of the locals who I got talking to. Food excellent and piping hot....

This is my fav local pub my far! Been over 7 times and loved it everytime! Lovely warm and friendly atmosphere, food is delicious too.

This was the 3rd visit to the Barley Mow and the first for my parents. The starters were stunning and the Pie's were huge!! fantastic dessert for the kids with all the toppings. Excellent service as well!!

Visited the barley mow on 5th Feb for a meal with my wife and an elderly friend. The staff were friendly and professional nothing was to much trouble. The food was excellent and very tasty. Highly recommend a visit. Alan

Stumbled upon the barley mow whilst driving through to climb Pendle hill, loverly warm welcome and great food! Loverly dining space with log burning fire and comfy seating. I highly recommend place to dine within the Pendle countryside.

Third visit to the Mow and still to feel anything like satisfied....compares very poorly with Assheton Arms, in same group. Wanted roast beef lunch on Sunday before birthday.....got 3 very thin and dry slices of beef with 3 small roast potatoes. Vegetables acceptable, but small...

this has now been revamped and the menu changedgood food and attentive staffwe will be backthe lunch menu suited us well and the cheese and onion pie was really good

Visited this afternoon and had a very pleasant meal... Fillet Steak was possibly the best I've ever had. Very impressed with the meat and taste of all of it. Our starters were also really good.Ordered my 3 year old the ice cream dessert (£1.50) and it was massive! He absolutely loved it!Staff were great too, service a little slower as the bar area became busier.Will be returning soon

Called in for a drink and some food. Not enough staff serving . Waited 40minutes at the bar. Staff served others who had walked in after us. Saw front of house guy with beard who appeared uninterested in the fact we hadn't been served. Love the rest of the chain but this poor service in this establishment letting the rest down . Seriously needs better management as staffing levels and service need to be addressed. Walked out without a drink after 45 minutes across the road to The Pendle Inn .

Stayed at the Pendle inn because no rooms available at the Barley Mow however spent all day there! Lovely village pub with nice seating area in the sun, we returned for our evening meal which was superb. The fillet steak was one of the best I've had and cooked perfectly to my liking. Service was attentive and friendly we were just sorry we could not have stayed there. Will definitely return again, compliments to Jonathan for looking after us.

This is a seafood Pub restaurant , a growing chain locally . Parking is an immediate issue , the car park is small and the village does not have a lot of alternative spaces. Food is good pub fare , bistro. Steaks , burgers etc but a few fish dishes on the specials board that are worth considering . Service is a problem with a long wait between courses. This is something I have seen with other Seafood Pub places . Perhaps they have been too successful , too soon.

Great pub in a great location - lovely to combine a walk up pendle hill for an hour or two then back for a beer and food. The staff are friendly and helpful and good atmosphere - bit too hot in one of the rooms with a blazing fire. The food was just OK for us - was expecting more having read the menu and seen the reviews. The portions were quite small and nothing was very tasty. Had the mixed grill which was underwhelming and needed serious seasoning - plus the meat was not very tender. The chilli and rice tasted more like a ready meal and the rice was hard. Not sure I would go back for a main meal - would visit if I was having a walk and combined it with a drink and a sandwich

The service from the manager was excellent, nothing was not too much trouble. Food was very good and well presented. This is a very consistent chain and deserves to be recognised.

After walking up pendle hill we called in here for some lunch and a warm up. We were met by very welcoming friendly staff who immediately offered us a towel to dry our wet dog with, followed by a bowl of water for him. Once...

First time back at the new Barley Mow, very nice refurbishment Disappointed that the famous chilli was not available from the menu, but the fish and chips was nice.The smell of wet dogs from the table next to us was a bit off putting and annoying as they were only drinking beer and not eating; their language was a bit flowery as well.I thought this was designed as a nice dining establishment, not a tap-room. May I suggest an area for visitors with pets or none dining drinkers.Otherwise on another day I am sure this would have been a more pleasurable experience.

Where can I begin?We stayed at the Barley Mow this weekend for a two night stay. As soon as we arrived, we were made to feel welcome. The service was attentive and nothing was too much trouble. On the Friday night we were booked to have a meal- the food was absolutely outstanding. My husband is a real foodie who is notoriously difficult to please and all he could say was "stunning". We both had the duck salad to start, and I had the fillet steak for my main. I have spent a lifetime feeling frustrated at the inability of some establishments to cook steak medium rare, but they Barley Mow did it to perfection. The whole meal was utterly superb.We had breakfast on the Saturday and the Sunday morning- once again, the food was piping hot, and utterly delicious. Some of the best black pudding I have ever had the sausages are out of this world!I couldn't leave this review without commending the staff for the help they gave me on the Saturday night. We were staying in Pendle for a wedding and I returned late on the Saturday night with our little one. Just as I was dozing off she was violently ill- too much chocolate and dancing! Being away from home and away from my usual "Mum cupboard" full of spare bed linen and Dettol I had absolutely no idea what to do. I needent have worried. A quick trip down to the bar in my pyjamas later Jonny and Craig instantly appeared with towels, fresh bed linen, water and a little bag of colouring for my daughter who was so upset. Jonny even helped me lift my little one off the bed, getting vomit on his very lovely suit in the process. All offers of dry cleaning costs were shunned and we were assured it was no problem.To say they went above and beyond the call of duty for us is an absolute understatement and we are so grateful.We are already planning our next trip to the Barley Mow and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend them. With comfortable accommodation, outstanding food, and service that leaves you wanting for nothing you will not be disappointed.

Booked here for a Tuesday Lunch because we were coming a long way to meet friends but didn't need to as it was empty when we arrived. I wanted to try this place as comes under the same company as the Assheton Arms at Downham...

Fabulous service as always.....Food underwhelming. Steak nearly blue instead of medium- cold fries and cold mushrooms. Not enough custard for the crumble.....We asked for more and got a jug of heated up milk!!!! The kitchen just couldn't be bothered! We are regulars here and I...

This is now. Seafood Pub Company place and has been spruced up and is welcoming . food is good but not fantastic - would expect more fish dishes but more emphasis on the burger gammon steak pie of the day end of the market . Large portions but that doesn't necessarily mean great and in fact the fish portions are a bit small . My friends plaice fillet dish was smaller than my starter. Our waiter was young and probably new and wasn't good but other staff good and the head waiter (manager? ) a bit too friendly in fact. Will go back but not ins hurry - lots of other similar places around . Also note the parking is limited - pub has a small car park then if that's full , good luck !

We had a lovely stay at the Assheton Arms last year so when I got an email with "dine with us and stay for free" we took advantage but booked for one of their other hotel/restaurants. The bedroom was spacious, comfortable and beautifully furnished. The food was fabulous! I had dressed crab for a starter and the skate wings for main, as I'd never tried skate and it was delicious. Hubby had monkfish starter and bream for his main, also delicious. All the staff here were absolutely wonderful!! They all went out of their way to ensure we had a great experience and they are a credit to the business.We will return in the future, we're working our way around the other restaurants in the group first.

We came to the Mow after previously being here for a drink after a walk in the summer. We made a good day of it after one of the witches trail walk and we we were welcomed by Jasmine who was really helpful and friendly in showing our room. We enjoyed the Sunday-Thursday deal which included a 3 course meal, bottle of Proseco, bed and breakfast for only £62.50 each. Looking at the menu it did appear to be abit steep but it didn't matter as we had so much to choose from the deal. The room was lovely and cosy and I would recommend it to anyone.

Nos alojamos aquí dos noches por mi cumpleaños. A nuestra llegada el viernes por la noche, nos encontramos con que hay música en vivo que noche y el lugar estaba lleno. A pesar de eso, el gerente amablemente nos encontraron una mesa para la cena sólo unos minutos después de que llegamos. El personal fue muy amable y cordial. Nos dijeron que esperar para comida, ya que estaban muy ocupados pero en realidad la comida llegamos más rápido de lo que esperábamos después de la alerta temprana. Me encontré mi hamburguesa para estar un poco más sazonada con pimienta pero creo que es sólo una cuestión de gusto, no me gusta mucho pimienta. Era muy sabrosa independientemente de eso. Mi marido tenía la tarta del día, lo cual era preciosa también, aunque creo que la comida es un poco más caro de lo que nos habíamos imaginado. La habitación en la que estuvimos era amplia y estaba muy limpia, la ducha era encantador. No hay quejas (excepto los vecinos ruidosos en la habitación de al lado de nosotros, pero eso no es la culpa de los propietarios). Una preciosa chimenea crepitante nos recibió para el desayuno en la mañana, mi única queja es que el té, que era horrible. Decepcionante y es el mismo té como en la habitación, no muy agradable. El desayuno era bueno, aunque (que estaba incluido pero creo que ahora ha cambiado y agradable, aunque fue, no creo que 10 libras es un precio razonable teniendo en cuenta mi marido sólo tenían huevos en tostadas). Cena en la segunda noche era impresionante, tuve un especial de la junta de mero con jerusalem artichoke puré, cangrejo croqueta, etc, me encantó cada finos, mejor cena que he tenido por mucho tiempo y mi esposo comida también era delicioso. Sí, era caro y no es algo que nos podamos permitir comer cada día (23 libras, creo que fue por el plato principal) pero era tan merece la pena para una ocasión especial. Una vez más, el personal fue muy atento, aunque estaban ocupados, muy amable y te hace sentir muy bienvenidos durante toda nuestra estancia. Sin duda lo recomiendo. Me encantó (aunque me llevaría mi propia siguiente jajaja bolsitas de tiempo) : DPD hay aparcamiento pero es bastante limitado.

Fantastic place to stay. Staff very welcoming and polite. Food was exceptional and will be returning again.

Well appointed little pub which has had a massive facelift. Competing directly with the Pendle Inn, the pub has done a lot for bringing new business to the area. The pub appeals to a wide audience - more snooty tooty people than hardened workers though. You are more likely to see a pair of stilettos than a pair of muddied walking boots! The bar staff are friendly and welcoming and the open fires on a cold day are a big plus point when it is freezing outside. The outside benches are welcoming to dog owners and the outside smoking area is far too nice for smokers! The dining experience cannot compete with the Pendle inn. Whilst the menu sounds great, availability, delivery within two hours and portion sizes leave a lot to be desired. The pub opened in October 2014 and should have sorted the catering problems by now. That said, when the food arrives, it is ok but probably not value for money. It has however resulted in price increases in the pub opposite as both pubs are directly competing with each other. This venue has the edge on style, decor and friendliness but not on food. I should imagine that this will be resolved in time. Great venue for a glass of Prosecco though!!

Stayed the 24th Jan 2016 to celebrate our wedding anniversary.Styled like a hunting lodge, the pub has character & is well appointed throughout. The en suite room was lovely. Had dinner bed & breakfast. Good selection of food & wine & well kept beers. Excellent value for money. Barley is ideally situated for walking & it is at the foot of Pendle Hill.All the staff were friendly & very attentive. Would strongly recommend & we will certainly book again & will also stay at other pubs in the Seafood Pub group.10/10 for all categories

Stayed here for our son's wedding for a few nights with family. The service was super. Nothing was too much. The staff were friendly, efficient and professional and very ably led by the manager. It turned our stay into a very memorable mini- break rather than just a stopover. The restaurant was was very good with generous portions. The surrounding area is stunning with rolling hills, dry stone walls and walks for all levels. Barley village is very pretty and well kept. Great for exploring Lake District type scenery without the tourist traps. New ownership since October 2014 and well worth a visit.

Spent a couple of relaxing nights here. Superbly clean room, excellent food and very friendly staff.

Lunch at the Barley Mow on Halloween. The staff were very attentive and friendly. We enjoyed three courses all of which were very tasty. The ribs were particularly good, nice big portions. We really enjoyed being in a dog friendly pub with a cosy warm welcome. We will return!

Half of the menu wasn't available and we were sat near a door to the outdoor smoking area that on occasions was left open letting cold and smoke in.. food was ok but not worth the money!! Won't be rushing back!

We called here on our way home for tea and we were so glad we did. From the minute we walked in the door the service was excellent ,staff were really friendly and welcoming. Really good choice of food, fabulous fish on specials board as well as normal menu. My husband ordered the mixed grill and it was amazing the quality of the meat was excellent . It was all so good we had puddings as well. The only down side was the Rugby was on and the telly was right over our head ,but we had finished eating by the time it came on so didnt spoil it too much . Would return and we noticed they do rooms so may stay next time .

Visited lunchtime. Varied menu providing home cooking. Attentive staff and Manager. Parking available. Ideal lunch break for walkers or evening meals.

average food. Overpriced, friendly staff. Nice surroundings, dog friendly. Would I go again? No! I would go to the pendle inn across the road. The Barley Mow could be fantastic but it needs to sort its food out.

Absolutely amazing food, the gammon was possibly the best for a long time and was at least an inch thick. Also had the burger which was delicious. However slightly let down on the fact that these large dishes came with a small handful of chips. Staff were absolutely fantastic and very willing to help. However, not a fan of the mildly pretentious wording of the menu. The steaks were "robata grilled with grill sauce"...after googling this found this to a type of grill rather than a grilling style, still unclear as to what the ambiguous grill sauce is. Also that the beefs were "Lancashire grass fed" which we were unsure if it was the grass that was from Lancashire or the cows, or if it even mattered at all?!Seemed not in keeping with the style the rest of the pub was aiming for which is stunningly decorated with real wood floors, cosy panelling, real fires which all says no-nonsense, quality, hearty, British food - which is definitely was!

Beautiful surroundings Service terrible Order completely wrong Food tasteless and bland Would never return, which is a shame as love the others in this chain

I am trying to find the best Sunday lunch in the area.This is the best so far from Emmott at laneshawbridge and Duke of York Gringleton.Although quite expensive at £15.00 for Sunday lunch.Service was ok not a brilliant atmosphere but might have been we're we sat.Would and will return but will keep on looking.When we asked for more gravy look at the size of pot we got !

Firstly, we didn't actually eat here, however, we will eventually get round to doing so, this is the first time we've visited the Barley Mow since it's refurb and I would just like to say how friendly the staff were who served us although we only visited for drinks. We each had a nice big pint of rothaus (that the lady serving even let us have a small beaker of before deciding if we wanted a pint) and sat outside in the sunshine with the resident witch before setting off on our walk. As I say, I can't comment on the food at present but did want to give a thumbs up to the friendliness of the staff in general.

Went for a Sunday lunch. The meals were well cooked and very nice but with four meals puds and drinks coming to £100 it seemed too much. Not surprisingly the place wasn't very busy. I don't think we'll be back.

We recently visited with some German guests and the food was excellent. We were just in time to benefit from the lunchtime menu offer which was superb value and the food exceeded our expectations. Ev ery one of our party enjoyed their food so much that the week after our guests had departed my husband and I went again to enjoy their scrumptious cheese pie. The only drawback is the very, very limited parking there and I am not the world's best driver for getting my car into tight gaps! I feel as if I deserve a round of applause whenever I manage to get into - or out of - one of their designated spaces even if one happens to be available. The food, the service and the ambience (apart from the always intrusive piped music) were very good. We will definitely be back - though I might have to park in the nearby Barley public car park (where there is a charge).

Warm and friendly welcome as soon as we walked through the door. Staff very polite and attentive. Food was excellent, I had duck spring rolls and the burger, both tasty and well presented. Well kept cask beer (Wainwrights). Great experience, can't fault it.

A nuestra llegada, nos dijeron (después pedimos) que podíamos sentarnos en cualquier mesa sin un menú. Una vez nos sentamos, tuvimos que pedir un menú, ya que nadie se acercaba con uno. Ninguna mención de especiales, o lo que la sopa del día. Al pedir, pedimos una pinta de real Ale y limonada de una copa regular de Sauvignon Blanc. (8,60 libras por tanto, nos dimos cuenta más tarde ... me pregunto si nos cobraron por una Gran copa, ya que la camarera me preguntó si quería grande.) Nuestra

Got charged £6.50 for a starter that was 3 small chicken nuggets. I asked if that was normal as it seemed very little for a starter AND at that price. Was just answered with a curt 'yes' and then the manager walked off. Poor, very poor.

Went with a group of friends and we were greeted by "Hope you've booked as we're full". Not very welcoming! I love the Assheton Arms, one of the same chain, and was aware that this place was being promoted as a 'Walkers' Pub' so wasn't expecting the same menu. I WAS expecting the same quality though, both in terms of service and standard of food, and I didn't get it. Waiting staff were over-familiar, the food was ok at best.There was a rowdy group of people by the door as we were leaving, presumably staying the night. I could only feel sorry for the Barley locals.I won't be going again.
