The Barley Mow in Wealden

We ate here for a Sunday roast in the summer and couldn’t fault it, it was delicious! Came back today for a Sunday roast and it was highly disappointing. The roast potatoes were rock hard and when new ones were brought out, they were similar. They weren’t crispy or fluffy. The veg is minimal and the couple of slices of meat for the price is daylight robbery. Overall it was a bit tasteless and disappointing. Such a shame as it was so good last time but it seems the quality of food had gone down slightly. Even though we booked and paid a deposit online, they didn’t take the deposit off the bill automatically so we had to ask for this. It would be great if it was removed prior to handing us the bill. Unfortunately we won’t be returning.

The Barley Mow impressed us with its delicious offerings. The Malaysian curry was wonderfully aromatic and the fish and chips were crispy and fresh. The highlight was the apple and blackberry crumble—simply the best, with a perfect blend of flavors. A must-visit spot!

Very good food, big main courses,which explains small desert 🏜 menu, also lovely coffee as well.

Four of us went for a weekend supper and hid away from the storm in the cosy Barley Mow. Excellent service by the team - we felt really looked after and enjoyed delicious supper and drinks. Will be back in a heart beat.

From the moment we walked in, we felt welcome and comfortable. Service from Alan and the rest of the team was great and all 3 generations of our family were extremely pleased with the variety and quality of the food. We will return. Thanks Barley Mow

Stopped here yesterday for lunch. Two Fantastic meals, lamb and steak. Great service. Great longman beer. Been driving past this pub for years. So glad we stopped this time. Highly recommend.

We haven’t eaten here for ages and thought we’d try it now it’s got new owners. We liked the revamped interior. Our pre-lunch drinks arrived quickly and we ordered our food, which did take just a bit longer to arrive but it was well worth the wait. Everything was so delicious and we all really enjoyed our food. Alan served us and was very helpful when we asked if we could move to a different table. This is definitely somewhere we’ll be going back to.

We had a great experience and enjoyed a good meal. The restaurant is open all day, which is fantastic for us and was the only place we could find serving food after 2pm. The service was friendly and helpful, the food very good and the quality great. Allround a great experience.

Had our first Sunday lunch at The Barley Mow last weekend - what a treat! The roast lamb was absolutely spot-on, and all the trimmings were fantastic, from the lovely homemade veg to the delicious purees and proper gravy. We're always delighted with their brilliant house wine selection. This was our third visit to the pub, and the friendly team never fails to make us feel welcome. The food, wine and service are consistently brilliant - we'll definitely be back for another Sunday roast soon.

Hmmm. Nice vibe, nice staff but very disappointing food. 4 Sunday roasts. Soggy Yorkshire’s, potatoes so hard that I struggled to cut with my knife. The loin of pork was very tough and the crackling didn’t crackle. As for the vegetarian option, it looked as if it had been dropped from a great height onto the plate. I dont like complaining but I do feel that customers have a right to a decently cooked meal if they are paying well for it. What is so difficult to get right about this very uncomplicated meal? Won’t be going again.

We had a great evening at The Barley Mow. Warm welcome from friendly staff. Delicious food and very generous portions! Lovely wine selection, of which we were given samples of three to choose from, which was a lovely touch! Would have scored higher if only they had a stronger choice of real ale on offer. All a bit samey and under 4%. Thanks for letting us stay over in our campervan. Can't wait to visit again!

Spectacular and tasty smoked salmon "sandwich" for a tenner, a huge lunch portion with fresh salad. 8 of us rocked up midday and the staff coped well with the orders. Silly Moo cider available as a bonus. Too chilly for outdoors but garden looks tremendous with stunning views south to the Downs. This place deserves to do well. A very successful relaunch!

A midweek night out, I have seen lots of posts for the Barley Mow so we decided to try it and we're not disappointed. We shared the scotch egg to start, followed by fish & chips for my partner and shepherds pie for me both had the asparagus. We shared the crumble for dessert. The food was delicious, nicely presented and great service. Love the decor, giving the pub a great atmosphere. Love the outside garden although we didn't sit in it this time.

Often pass this pub and as reopened thought we would try it out for a drink and meal. Well it was freezing with no heating on and no atmosphere. So just had a drink and left . Will not be visiting again

Lovely country pub, but make dure you book. Very popular.

Well what can I say, we only stopped there on the off chance driving back from Eastbourne. We walked in through the garden entrance and wow. It was amazing, never seen anything like it. It was unbelievable, such a lovely place, and the staff were so friendly and welcoming. The food was amazing too, we only had the toasted Welsh rarebit but it was really nice. Would definitely recommend it and can’t wait to go back again and try a roast.

Great food... but turning customers away at 8pm for wanting to have dinner on Thursday evening is not cool.. won't be coming back... sorry guys..

Food was so good at The Batley Mow, great service and lovely atmosphere. First time and definitely won't be the last. Best roast I've ever eaten and I'm fussy!

Food is amazingly tasty (I have the vegan options) and service was second to none. Very attentive staff and a wonderful space to enjoy year round. I can't wait to go back.

What an amazing pub and restaurant. I had the pleasure of going back for a second time for food, and it was equally as amazing as the 1st time. Great, friendly service, value for money, and a menu to die for. And now they have a massive, covered area in the garden, it's an even better place to have a pint and spend your time. I cannot rate it highly enough,

Great find, we had a late afternoon Sunday booking and the roasts were on point. Service was excellent, friendly and accommodating. Will be returning as soon as we can!

Great food and ambience! Alan and Rosie were both lovely!

Fabulous place. We loved the atmosphere - it felt special-occasiony without being too grand, and the place was busy and buzzy, just right for a relaxed Sunday lunch. The food was great and the staff were brilliant - friendly and polite and really helpful, making sure we all had exactly what we wanted (no mean feat as several of us chose slightly off-piste combinations from the menu). The unasked for continual refills of our water carafe were typical of the attentive yet discreet service, and the cucumber in the water was an unusual but appreciated touch. 10 out of 10 on all fronts. Splendid cooking, rather than just reheating of bought in dishes which is often typical in pubs. New owner, your menu and food were delicious, but your staff were the jewel in your crown. Heartily recommend and can’t wait to come again.

Took a chance on a Sunday roast and it did not disappoint. Staff were super friendly, drinks were great and my goodness the roast!!! So tasty, great portion size and gravy was delish! Would highly recommend getting all three sides - cauliflower cheese was epic. Visited with friends and their young children who were happily catered for too. Will be back 👏

New owners & nice refurbishment. Early days but promising signs on our visit.

We drive by the Barley Mow often and say we really must try that one day especially now it's under new management and so we finally did. No regrets at all and are planning a return trip with friends next month. We intended to only have a drink but ended up staying for food. The menu was great, not the usual pub grub, very original. The staff were friendly and just the right amount of attentive. Our choices were stuffed chicken breast with mushroom risotto and chicken thigh burger. Both excellent - the best pub meal we've had in a very long time.

Absolutely brilliant roasts, and such lovely service too, great staff and a wonderful pub for families.

Nicely refurbished and excellent fusion Pub menu at reasonable prices

The good: Food was great - (various roasts) and the portions were generous, but the cauliflower cheese was a bit strange - i.e. not much in the way of a cheese sauce. Still edible though! I would have liked to try the desserts, but had eaten my fill. The serving staff were friendly and helpful. The not so good: we arrived about 15 minutes before the booked time and were directed to sit on the church pew seats under a speaker that was playing too loud for conversation. The request to turn down the music to a conversational level seemed to fall on deaf ears :) Anyway, we were moved to a decent round table away from the dance music and all was well. (I know some people like loud music, and it has its place, but when you want a nice Sunday lunch with your family, you probably want to be able to talk to them and not shout over the music!) The drinks service was a bit slow – we could see our order sat on the bar for quite a while before it was brought over. That meant it coincided with the arrival of the food. We would have liked it to have been paced differently as we would have ordered another round! The cutlery was really small – more suitable for desserts or children (Am I being too picky?). The children’s play area was a quagmire, as was the path from the cycle path to the back door. We seem to be living in a temperate rainforest these days so a bit of paving for the path and more drainage in the play area would go down well. The site has a “difficult” layout – but it would be easier to traverse if there were no stools at the bar right in the corridor. This was a problem in the pub when under the old management. I’m sure you don’t need to have people sitting right there! Anyway, great to see the pub back in action after a long period of closure and we will definitely be visiting again.

Great food. Service was impeccable, with Alan and the other waiter being super helpful. Thank you!

Great menu choices. Alan was friendly and helpful. We really enjoyed the fish platter, ham hock and Tiger prawns. There was a great fun day going on in the covered patio with disco and Halloween fun for the children. We will definitely be back.

First time eating at the relaunched pub - my partner and I decided to head out from Lewes for somewhere different to eat for lunch. Greeted as we entered and looked after by excellent barman Both our meals were delicious and clearly freshly cooked - will definitely head back again

Everything about this pub should have meant it was a 5* experience but it wasn’t quite there which was a shame. Decor/look and feel was lovely. Decorated relatively recently. It was a Friday night so lots of covers which gave a good buzz of atmosphere. We were with someone who has hearing aids though and they did find it quite hard to hear as it was quite noisy. Serving team were great, especially the young lad. Not rushed, everything done at a good pace. Attentive but not over bearing. Food - presented well and tasty but SO disappointed with the veggy options. It was the point that really let the whole place down from my PoV. Only 3 options on the mains (gnocchi, banana blossom and curry). Even less for starters with just a cauliflower dish.

Superb Food, Fabulous Friendly Staff and and lovely warm relaxed atmosphere. Will definitely be returning and 100% recommend. 5* all the way ♥️

Lovely garden play area for kids and the rustic old English pub interior felt warm and cozy as did the welcome from the staff.. I even give the food top marks for taste presentation and price thanks guys

Grape food brilliant Service staff was polite very helpful and very reasonable pricing would highly recommend

Fabulous varied menu, fabulous food, very attentive staff . Can highly recommend the new team!

We had one of the best roasts I’ve had in a long time at the Barley Mow on Sunday. The food was delicious and there was a lot of it. The atmosphere was buzzy and the service was excellent. Highly recommend.

Too busy to park although we had booked. Sunday lunch took 45 mins to arrive, just too busy for me.

Sunday roast was phenomenal! Incredible service and quick service. The portion and quality was amazing, quite possibly the best in Sussex!

We pop in today for a roast dinner. Didn't book a table but the staff were very accommodating and got us a table. The roast dinner was amazing and the gravy was the best gravy I have ever had! 100% recommend.

Popped by on impromptu trip out Had delicious lunch well presented and value for money great service highly recommend

Warm welcome, generous helpings, cycle path adjacent. All in all a lovely place for a family gathering as small children were made very welcome with the added bonus of an outside play area.

Our family went for the second time yesterday for a Sunday roast, all four of us enjoyed it again, lovely food, friendly staff and great service.. five stars from us all round! See you soon

Over the summer I visited the Barley Mow twice for Sunday roasts. The food and service was fantastic. All the staff were friendly and very helpful. The atmosphere is great. The first time I went it was a beautiful sunny day and we sat outside to eat in the lovely garden and enjoyed the convenience of the outside bar and views of the Sussex countryside. The second visit the weather wasn't so kind but it didn't matter as the pub is really comfortable and really nice inside. I highly recommend a visit the Sunday roasts were great!

Outstanding transformation of this country pub - well worth checking out for food and excellent beers

What a pleasant surprise! After months of driving and cycling past The Barley Mow while it sat empty, we finally decided to give it a go for lunch now that it's reopened. And we are delighted that we did! The new owners have done a brilliant job of revitalising this classic pub. It still has that traditional charm, but with a fresh, modern twist that really works well. We popped in for lunch and a few drinks on a beautifully warm autumn day yesterday. We opted for the Bream and the Malaysian curry. Both dishes were absolutely delicious - proper homemade food with spot-on flavours. You can tell the kitchen takes pride in their cooking. The staff were lovely - attentive and friendly without being overbearing and you can tell they enjoy working there. We had a chat with Ben who told us all about the work that went into getting it this far and the plans they have for the future. We chose a table in the sun in the adults' outdoor area, which offers stunning views of the South Downs. It was the perfect setting for a relaxed meal. The outdoor spaces are really well thought out. There's a large family garden with plenty of colourful tables and a wooden play park for the little ones. If you're after a quieter atmosphere, the adults' garden is a real treat. It's got a slightly more upmarket feel, but still very comfortable. The are going to add covers and heaters for the cooler months too. They've gone the extra mile with additional features. Two outdoor bars mean you're never far from a refill, and there's a fancy outdoor kitchen complete with a hog roast and pizza oven. For a bit of atmosphere, there's even a garden DJ booth and a themed ice cream stand that I'm sure kids (and adults!) will love. One of the best things about The Barley Mow is its location. The new Polegate to Lewes cycle path runs just behind its garden, making it easily accessible by bike, foot, or even horse! It's fantastic for cyclists looking for a pit stop, walkers out for a ramble, or horse riders fancying a break. It's fantastic to see a local pub getting a new lease of life like this. Whether you're looking for a family-friendly spot, a peaceful pint with a view, or a refreshment stop during your countryside adventures, The Barley Mow has you covered. We'll definitely be returning - it might just become our new not so local, local! If you're in the area, I'd highly recommend popping in, whether by car, bike, foot, or horseback. The Barley Mow is a real gem, and we're so glad the new owners have injected new life into this classic British pub.

Nice kids area, Great place for food and a drink!!!!! 😍 will be back.

Had a lunch yesterday, the smoked salmon sandwich and the bacon sandwich were best we've had in a pub for a long time, really good ingredients.

Great family pub. Food and service 10/10!!

We were a group of 6 and we received excellent service from Alan. The food was really good with a great selection of beer. We had a fantastic evening and were pleasantly surprised by the quality of the meals we all enjoyed

Had a great evening with mates last night at the Barley Mow (Selmeston)… under new ownership this pub has been reawakened by its great ideas menu and super friendly staffing, not to miss mentioning the whole interior revamp (not so sure about the modern bright yellow signage kerbside but I guess I noticed it had changed!)…. Alan on hosting duty was very engaging whilst taking orders and generally a very enjoyable presence serving. 😉 Tim (25/9 - table 13 @ 7 for 6) PS Don’t miss out on the Tomahawk Pork Chop… 😋

Great place! Wonderful Lunch! I had the Tomahawk Pork chop! My partner had shepherds pie! Different class!! Alan our server couldn’t do enough and very attentive but not overbearing! Well done all, catch you next time Ben! 😄

Great food. Really good service. Appalling drum and bass music! Its not a fun pub for youngster so no idea why they were playing such bloody awful music. Mentioned it to the waitress and said we were moving tables. She said fine. Better response would have been to change the music!!!

Great place to have lunch with friends, kids play area spot on! Food was great, burger was banging and beer/cider cold! Service friendly and quick! We will be back for sure. Ben and Kim have turned this country pub into an adult oasis..with kids on the side! 10/10 would recommend

Went here on 22/09/24 and the atmosphere, staff and food were amazing. The butternut squash roast... I was in heaven! The best thing my taste buds had laid apon since I ever discovered chocolate! Would definitely go back

Very disapointing, food took over half an hour to arrive,we ordered 2 cheeseburgers and they forgot the cheese, music so loud myself and my husband ended up just on our phones as we couldn't hear eachother,on the plus side the staff were lovely and very helpful.

Newly refurbished and very comfortable inside. Food very good extremely well presented. Staff very nice and friendly

Great atmosphere, Friendly and very helpful staff. Superb food and good variety of drinks. Great space and kids play area

Becky made us feel super welcome and nothing was too much trouble. The food was amazing. I have difficult dietary requirements and they were happy to accommodate my needs. Really nice meal in a comfy relaxed environment. Thank you guys 😊

The service was a little slow, but it was understandable as it was very busy. The main food was good, but the main standout was the ice cream (ordered from the little stand outside). It was some of the nicest ice cream I have ever had, and very good value for £5.50

We were excited to visit the new look BM, checked menu before hand plus booked a table indoors. The decor is tasteful. Doggy friendly as we had 3 week behaved dogs with us. We were seated straight away & given menus. Drink order taken & delivered at a reasonable time, I had ordered a Gin & Tonic, no lime, lemon or cucumber ( my preference) so I had to ask for fruit, other drinks arrived as ordered one of our party is a non drinker was offered only 1 non Alco beer, surely more that 1 beer available if so wasn’t offered, most establishments have at least 3, we did ask & was told only 1??? We weren’t informed of any items not available when handed the menus, so all in all a good sign! So as we were asked for our orders, 3 of us wanted to try the Pork Chop, told it wasn’t available along with the scotch egg! This was 2.30pm today Saturday 14th September! No specials on offer so we had to look at the menu to choose some other main courses So the following was ordered Beef burger with added cheese, the burger had no tomato, or pickle…tarragon mayo ( so wrong for a burger), my partner had to scrape the tarragon mayo off, was smothered with it Shepherds pie was nice but for £16 a side of veg or greens could have been added ( so I ordered a side myself, which were ok) Fish & chips, tasted ok. Chicken risotto, good flavour but over cooked risotto & very small chicken breast for £20.50 Service was average too to say the least.. It’s a shame.. the venue is lovely food for the price doesn’t deliver! Yes it’s new owners but it’s more important than ever with the prices that are being charged you deliver on food! First impressions are important. I wish you all the best but I doubt we will be back!

What an enjoyable afternoon, Walked in and was welcomed with lovely smiles. Service was a little slow at the start but I think the size of the group may have payed effect to that.. Food came out and was served fresh and hot. Will definitely be back again.

Excellent and reasonable priced lunch. Service was spot on. Recommend the Bream and Bavette steak. Will be back to try the future seasonal menu change.

Have to be honest, the attention to detail makes this dining experience a 10/10 for me. From the children's menu with crayons through to the doggy treats the BM caters for folks who love to bring abit of sparkle to there pub experience. Top food, genuine staff and a good range of beer which I love. Disco lovers should make a stop on a Sunday for a pint, allocated drivers have a fine range of alcohol free drinks to work through. Big respect to the team for bringing so much life into the rural pub culture experience. Thanks Team!

Best Roast this side of Brighton.

Had a wonderful afternoon for my wife's suprise birthday. 20 adults and 8 children all accommodated/catered for perfectly, even with the poor weather. Food was amazing. Had a brilliant afternoon and will definitely be back.

Very busy on a sunny day, ran out of ice cream by 4.0 pm . Didn't like all the dogs around while people are eating

Impromptu visit, soon got busy, food delicious, all of it looked great. Very good A*👍

Came here last Sunday for a family lunch. Parking ok, drinks selection ok, we sat inside as the garden area was full. I had the Malaysian curry which was bland with no taste and was only Luke warm, the others all had a roast which came without Yorkshire puddings which we had to ask for, roasts were so so nothing to rave about. The young man who served us was polite and tried his best but seemed under pressure, there is a service charge which I personally would have asked to be taken off but my son paid the bill and left it on as he wouldn't want any fuss, all in all very slow service and below average food disappointing and won't be returning 😐

So stopped by for some food as we saw it was under new management. The lady was welcoming and ordered food. Was a little concerned when half way through ordering a other staff member started chatting and didn't seem to have a clue I was half way through ordering. So ordered food but realised the Bavett (Flank Steak) come with nothing but tomatoes with sides at £5 each with a small discount if you order 3. Hmm... Service was quick enough but oh my the chef needs firing. The flank steak was swimming in garlic butter with a strong taste of tarragon. It was tough as hell and I ordered it medium so shouldn't be that tough. No steak knife either. The mushrooms were truly vile I mean really really badly seasoned and tiny overcooked swimming in grease/butter with some sad looking tomatoes and half a roasted garlic clove. The whole dish already was swimming in garlic butter why would I want to each half a roasted garlic bulb? The crushed potatoes looked like cat food and similarly tasted awful with a really nasty aftertaste. Terrible seasoning again. Weirdly dry as well. The kids burgers were OK. The chips were fine. The greens were basic at best but quite a lot of them. Overall the food was terrible. Badly cooked, prepared and seasoned. I still feel sick from all the grease and garlic now. I should have followed my gut instinct when I saw signage more suited to a soft play than a pub. Expensive awful food. I can't see how it will survive with food this bad.

Great place! Beautiful garden - great for the kiddies to play safely - a few deck chairs thrown in too 😆 I was with a large group - all the food served together and excellent!! I had the chicken roast, others had lamb roast and beef roast - all cooked to perfection 🙂 Would defo recommend 100% - well done to the new owners for delivering a fabulous place 😊

The food and the over all feel of the place is amazing. The staff so helpful, chatty with customers. I would come again.

We came when it opened and it was so welcoming and felt like being on holiday abroad with lovely surroundings. The meet and greet was a lovely special touch and the service was really good, with everyone running around, when it was really busy, making sure everyone was happy. Today not so welcoming. The staff made my daughter queue again when she couldn't remember the table number, after queuing 15 minutes How ridiculous, she could have come back or found some way of dealing with this, surely, after she had waited 15 minutes in the queue. I also had a 20 minute wait in the queue. The wait for the food was over an hour. It was a DELICIOUS roast though. Great kiddies play area. The 2 stars we gave the review was not that the food wasn't good but the service ruined things. No doubt they were under staffed today but the frazzled responses and comments the outside bar staff were making was highly unprofessional. It's not the customer's fault There was 1 functioning ladies toilet for such a busy place. We wondered if our first experience of this place was too good to last. It seems so. What a shame. The great food,.atmosphere and music could have made this a number 1 in our opinion. We wanted this to be a place we return to regularly but don't fancy coming back any time soon

So nice sunny day went for family dinner booked at 14.00 entered and greeted but bar staff couldn’t operate the tablet for booking system to start taken to table by member of team who told us what not available on menu and said be back in minute to take our drink order didn’t actually have a drinks menu available. 20 mins later came back to take order. So some 45 mins later still no food give it compromised of 2 roasts and a burger nothing special about the order given it’s a Sunday and most restaurants deal with roasts on this day eventually 1 hour after ordering get a plate of food which had clearly been sat under a heat lamp for a while it was ok and that’s all I’d say however I can consider is lucky another table complained as been waiting pver 1 ½ hours think all down to bad planning and organisation on management behalf would I come back well NO sorry

3micro campers had a wonderful evening, friendly staff, good service, good food. The Adult garden had a nice ambiance Mediterranean feel to it. The soft lighting,gentle background music,sheepskin and blankets meant we could eat our meal outside on this late summer evening. We had a good nights sleep, see you again 👍

Fantastic food and friendly staff. Really impressed

Well firstly what a welcoming look the pub has produced, a lovely adult area with a great little bar outside the play area is safe and great for kids , the new owners are very friendly and welcoming had some good chat and they are a very enthusiastic couple with potential for the pub, the bar staff are very friendly and helpful and the food was really nice , they also have an amazing ice cream bar 🙂 Will deffo be returning x

I am a fussy foodie and the roast dinner I had here last week was one of the best I've had in Sussex. The roast potatoes are excellent, that's all you need to know, good quality beef and a nice selection of veg. It was a really sunny day and the outside seating area of the pub has Ibiza vibes, chilled music with stylish decor

Lovely venue, great indoor and outdoor space. Food was delicious, service was great, loved the deep house tunes playing. Will definitely be back. Highly recommended

The food was delicious. We tried all the sandwiches and they were all yummy, including the plough man. But the wait for the food was a little long. We will definitely come back again.

What a great time we had with you. Your staff are incredible so friendly and helpful, we enjoyed the company of Emily and (I think) Tom, we felt so welcomed from the minute we entered the pub. The food was of an excellent standard and very generous portions. There was plenty of space in the pub but somehow it felt cosy, the decor was warm and inviting. Absolutely worth a stop on the A27! My only request would be a couple of disabled parking spaces as it’s quite a distance either way to the entrances. Other than that everything was amazing. Thanks so much, we’ll see you again. Linda, Pip and John

Had a lovely meal here in the garden, there’s plenty of outdoor seating. The staff were lovely and helpful, food was great and the ice-creams were something to behold!

Sat in the outside adult area on a quiet ish Weds evening. Service was very good, food was extremely tasty and very well presented and the area was very pleasant and comfortable with a nice relaxed vibe.

Came here today (15th Aug) as was driving through. I was really impressed by the service received - I had a lovely chat with the lady with the multi-coloured hair who sat me down and took my order. The food was so good - I had the "Bok" Burger - and I can't wait to come back soon with friends and family!

Newly open under new ownership. Great food, really friendly staff, local beers and good wine selection. Garden looked great although couldn’t enjoy it on a dreary August Thursday!

Really lovely pub. Beer garden/play area is great. Only downside is there is only 2 toilets, 1 either side of the bar. But 1 toilets baby change table is directly infront of the cubicle. If someone were to be changing their baby it would block the cubicle, meaning there is only 1 toilet available at that time. Also quite awkward and pressurised if you're the mum changing and the pub is busy. There is also no ramp. Had to put my pram in the car to feed my baby inside. Quite disappointing actually considering how child orientated the beer garden is. Also, not good if you're in a wheelchair or mobility scooter.

What an exciting place since the new owner took over this week! Great, quirky (in a really good way) decor, cool outside spaces and fantastic food with interesting twists to raise it well above the run of the mill pub fare. Will be returning for sure.

What a perfect spot for a family lunch out. Glorious, newly refurbished garden & play area - perfect for a sunny afternoon! Delicious food (the roasts are to die for), friendly staff, great service. Loved the chill out music playing in the garden - felt like we were on holiday in a lovely beach bar. And access to a really nice cycle/ walking route out the back of the pub - perfect for toddlers or kids on bikes. A fabulous find.

Had dinner here this evening as we were passing through; my partner had the chicken curry and I had the bream. Both absolutely delicious and brilliant sized portions for the pricing. Matthew, Emily and Georgia took great care of us - we will definitely be coming back!

Genuinely might be one of the worst paint jobs I've ever seen on a building. The entire pub is a huge grey block now: a Siberian internment camp is likely more warming and appealing. Really don't understand, genuinely repulsive!

A Reimagined Barley Mow will be opening soon.

Staff are always friendly, the beers good and they serve hearty portions. The beer garden is large and has a good play area for the kids. You can now turn up safely by bicycle Or eBike with the new cycle lane running beside the beer garden. This is a great place for a sunny afternoon burger and beer whilst the kids play.

The first time we went the roast vegetables were lovely and crispy. The last time they were overcooked. The staff on both occasions have been very polite and helpful. There is a great seating area and place for the kids to play. Great for Sunday roasts.

Booked table, booking confirmed pub closed when we arrived. Not very impressed, shan’t be returning.

Nice friendly olde world pub. Just a shame they didn't do rolls or sandwiches on the menu on Saturdays.

Burger was delicious, cooked m, fish n chips heavily battered and a little greasy, veg soup average. Service and decor very nice and the 50%off food (weds only) much appreciated

Just had a lovely Sunday lunch. Very delicious food, friendly staff and a good pint of Harveys. The family all enjoyed it. Thank you !

No food available today but nice pub, excellent service and a lovely garden

This place has gone downhill. My Wife and I waited 45 minutes, after ordering, for the food to be served. It wasn't worth the wait. I took one bite of the Roast Potato that was leathery and hard inside and sent mine back. My Wife was starving and ate a coupla potatoes. The rest was a one inch piece of 'maple glazed' parsnips, 2 slivers of carrot, a pile of nondescript green stuff, overcooked, and the Chestnut and Mushroom Wellington with Vegan Cheese. A complete mess. I bought a sandwich from the Garage across the Road and pressed on. I will not be visiting again. The next table to us was complaining of Chicken that was cold in the middle. The Servers, whilst pleasant, had not a clue how to serve. Cutlery dumped on the table and no clue what they were doing.
