The Barley Mow in Leeds

Most expensive soft drinks I ever had

Absolutely disgusting pub with disgusting bar staff the owner kelly is small minded arrogant and rude. Not to mention the pub is full of underage kids taking drugs. The place needs shutting down.

It’s a drug den. Plain and simple. The local wannabe gangsters run this pub, not the staff.

Its cost effective but no real atmosphere

Ya can get cheap coffee and washing tablets of smack eds right boozer mush

Good parking large outdoor area

Very good liked it all food,service, plenty of food all first class. staff very friendly always checking to make sure your enjoying your meal.

Drinks⭐⭐⭐⭐ Service⭐⭐⭐⭐ Vibe⭐⭐⭐⭐

My go to pub my general local when I go out! Have a great time when I'm there ❤️

Good atmosphere, enjoyed my visit

Just called in for a quick drink, whilst my son was at youth club. Great atmosphere,will definitely go back again soon

A great pub. Always clean and friendly staff.

Add a gew in there nice place to ave a pint or a few very freindley staff well worth a visit if ure in bramley

Went out with my friend and called in here to reminisce as we are 20 years older grim when we first used to go in here, not the best but nice bar staff and karaoke,

Local pub for local people banging

Top pub. All ages more than welcome. I bet you'll see someone you know. Al.G.

Not been in here for ages i found it OK

Staff and customers are very friendly and don't make you feel rushed...

Good but strange but good but still a bit strange. #barleymowyouneverknow

Just what the place needed. Make over and fresh new face

Amazing pub, full of good vibes and good atmosphere. As travellers we are used to weird looks and reactions to us being there but this pub was the total opposite and made us feel comfortable. Prices are low

Big led screen out back for the euros gotta love that

Great pub lovely staff. Drinks are a great price. The place is well furnished and the toliets are very clean. A Very good place for a night out.

Food was nice but a bit rowdy for a teatime.

Not good at this moment in time

Nice family pub, reasonable food. Great staff

After my last visit I have to change my review and drop it from 3 stars to 1 star. Visually the pub is dated and the chairs in there round the tables you eat look old and very dirty. A customer in there was walking round with his bum out singing to random customers and being very loud. The food we got which usually is good was horrible. The veg I ordered looked like it was out of date by a lot. The carrots were like rubber and the peas tasted like strange paste. My other half ordered a medium rare steak which was uncuttable and came without a steak knife. In the past steaks were delivered on black metal sizzling plates surrounded by onions. This stake was just placed on a boring white plate and was so rare it was still bleeding. Over all won't be going back anymore.

Stopped going in full of young crowd most uder age trouble most nights on a weekend police attend regular even on week nights food gone done hill since it was part of sizzling pubs group

Lovely meals and very helpful staff.

Had a chicken pie on Saturday which was quite nice so went back today for a Sunday roast that was horrible. Dry chicken, probably microwaved, uncooked parsnips and hard taties with dry rubbery veg clearly microwaved. Not exactly a “roast” dinner.

Great breakfast venue but please go back to your old supplier of sausages, much tastier than current ones

Gone down the pan since new ownership Mixed grill: Steak no taste & chewy Gammon no taste, burnt sausages etc etc

Ok typical pub went for a birthday good day

Top pub top staff and true genuine friends.

HIDEOUS, ABSOLUTELY HIDEOUS. No other words can describe this shambollick event. Tickets £5 for breakfast with Santa 10-11:30. 8 adults in my party all ordered a breakfast and 10 children with tickets, there at 10 but no food appeared before 11:20. A skinny man in a cheap tacky red polyester suit arrived at 11:50, by which stage we were still missing 2 adult meals (which we ordered at 10:15) 1 arrived but still no sign of the other. In the end I asked for a refund. £5 was reluctantly refunded and my mother was left hungry without a meal. Probably for the best really given that it tasted like crap and several of us have been ill since eating it. The staff were vile and swore in front of the children. One sighed For F**k sake as I once again asked her where our food was. Check out the lump of charcoal in my picture, apparently that's a mushroom and that is how they are meant to be cooked. Avoid this place like the plague. It's only positive is that it's an Pokémon gym!

Happen to be walking past, called in. Nice friendly pub!

Thank you to Rachel, Sam and all the staff at the Barley Mow for providing a free Christmas Lunch to all tenants at Rossefield Manor Extracare Scheme in Bramley today. Our tenants and staff had a wonderful four course meal with complimentary tea and coffee and the staff were so accommodating. This was a fantastic event to get people together and to get away from home for a change of scene. We pulled crackers, told silly jokes and enjoyed every course. THANK YOU SO MUCH ON BEHALF OF ALL THE TENANTS AND STAFF :-)

Not a very nice pub. Was offered to buy drugs, the toilets were run down, kids screaming everywhere, unfriendly staff and to top it off they even had a power cut.

I came here with a few friends as it got recommended to me and I wasn't disappointed!! The atmosphere was vibrant, customers and staff very polite and welcoming and I couldn't knock the food we got. I will definitely be coming again!

Steak wasn't cooked how it was ordered wouldn't recommend a meal here

Excellent food compliments to the chef. Friendly staff.

Its a pub in Bramley need i say more?

I grew up using this pub and still live opposite it but I no longer go in..apart from a brief visit last week..sadly it's still the same as i remember, During the day/early eve it's nothing more than a glorified creche with little Brittany,Paris,Chelsea running riot while mum gets hammered.On an evening it can very lively indeed once the natives get restless...usually after 10 pints of Stella which can be very intimidating for some..but at least you will learn plenty of new swear words as they are bounded about at high volume...although it has to be said the Police don't seem to attend as much as they used to do and living opposite we get to see this,ate there once several years ago and didn't wish to repeat the trauma of watching a bar staff picking her nose prior to handing us our meals..ps a chef is somebody who has gone to catering college for several years not a bar person who knows how to use a microwave oven.Overall..slightly grubby,noisey,intimidating,full of bloody kids,poor choice of beer,chavs....think of the pub The Jockey in the programme Shameless and your bang on the money.It dosnt matter how the management try dressing it up ..the pub is a Chav haven,loud,brash,very boisterous, and one to avoid...which is a shame as this was once a truly great pub but successive short term landlords have mismanaged it turning it into what it is today.

Good food, dirty seating and toilets very run down establishment

If you've been banned from all the other Bramley pubs this is the go to place <CheersTVThemeTune. mp3>

Pleasant pub.very helpful.at the funeral tea i attended..alas No Guinness. Thoughbthe pump was lit up

Great food reasonable prices. They have a big beer garden out back. Lots of benches and a smoking seating area out front lots of things to keep the kiddies entertained.

Needs a refurbishment but the food is good and staff very accommodating

Reasonably priced beer and nice staff

Crowded with lots of young girls and lads in tracksuits. My son recognised a few of them from his school so checking ages doesn't seem to be a priority. The beer was ok and cheaper than most but it was too much like a youth centre to stay for more than one pint

Mi esposa y yo fuimos a cenar hay un olor raro en la parte del restaurante y la gente empieza a fumar en la puerta tan pronto como entras en o en el mejor de comida era de tamaño para enviar patatas porque eran plana frío no vamos de nuevo

Lovely place for food, staff very friendly, not a place to come for drinks, as no choice of Ales, and like a kindergarten always full of kids running amock, which is a shame as could be a lovely pub, and always rowdy and foul mouthed locals, sitting near the door way,so not pleasant when entering x

Hoy Fuimos a almorzar. Mi hermano tiene enfermedad celíacos y las chicas de detrás de la barra estamos atendiendo sus necesidades en excelente con conocimiento del menú hay alergia y realmente amable y educado. La comida era perfecta. No puedo decir una mala palabra sobre nuestra experiencia.

Nos fuimos antes de ir a Leeds para bebidas. Deseado no tenía. La decoración es muy agradable y es muy grande y espacioso, pero la clientela me pareció peligroso y larey. Obviamente, un pub para los asiduos (si he visto un americano Ware Wolf en Londres entonces sabrá lo que estoy diciendo) es una pena ya que parece un pub muy agradable desde fuera.

La comida en la cebada mow es buena y sabrosa, el personal es muy agradable y parece que quieren complacer a los clientes es un buen pub para ir a relajarse volver un par de años la liga de rugby clubes bramley vestidores dentro del pub

Had a lovely meal served by kyle no complaints great service would highly recommend

After visiting the Woodcock in Gildersome recently we thought we'd visit another pub in the same chain. bigger but empty and it's not hard to see why.. Service was poor. The manager seemed disinterested and the food was not great. It's a No from us!

Had a breakfast there and was really nice and friendly staff

My local when I started drinking had a revisit after 30 yearsFood was good but please upgrade on cleaningGrubby me use sticky chairs, everything could do with a bleach wipe, the food was readnably priced and good , as you have compition from the unicorn these small details could improve things loads

We go here mainly because they have a little area for the children to play while we wait for food, the food has always being spot on, desserts are really nice too, and to top it off friendly and alway willing to help

On Saturday we were off to have something to eat at the old unicorn further down the road but after being disappointed the last time we went we decided to see what the barley mow was like. We had been told by others that also go to the old unicorn that we should try there because the foods nicer. They were definitely telling the truth. It's been a long time since we have had a meal out and felt that it was so full of flavour and perfectly cooked as that was. My partner had curry and I had chicken and rib skillet. It was meant to be the chicken and steak but he ordered me the wrong thing. I don't usually have ribs but just had one piece and really enjoyed it, they didn't go to waste as my partner finished them off. We left feeling full and very happy we chose there.The following day we returned with our children. Again superb food that everyone was more than happy with and i got the chicken and steak I wanted the day before which was perfect as expected. The kids meals are fantastic value and the desserts are yummy and well worth getting.The only criticism I have is that the waiting on staff are a little too quick to clear the tables. Personally I'd wait until it was clear that all members of that table had finished eating before starting to clear them. My daughter felt a bit awkward being the only one eating at our table as everything else had been took away so ended up leaving some of hers.

Just had our lunch today at Barley Mow.What a difference it makes depending on who is doing the cooking.The young girl served us the tastiest meal i have had in a long time what a great cook.Spicey chips, chicken wrap side salad. All fresh and well presented.new on the menue. Everything coming from the kitchen looked well prepared on every ones plate as it passed us.Will check who the cook is in future as the cook today has our Will be back soon.

We had a beautiful meal today as always the staff are friendly and can't do enough for you, thank you for making our day special

Had an hour to killWas planning to go to wetherspoons No where to park car So we went to barley mowUsed to drink here in pastOrdered a mixed grillGood portion Good service Steak was a bit tough Other than that Enjoyed Will return

After it took nearly 45 minutes to arrive I found the extra time was needed to over 'sizzle' the food. My chicken was badly burnt underneath. Everyone else seemed satisfied so maybe I was just unlucky.

Second visit this week ,Young man behind bar is Always on the ball and helpfullSurf and turf is cooked well and sweet selection is very good ,Wish this pub was nearerTo my home .My daughter and son in law Never say NO to a treat at this pub .John smiths is in good condition Pleased with this pubs services and staff .

Absolutely disgusted with the service me and my family have recieved tonight. It was nearly 8pm and we didn't realise kids had to leave at 8pm as there were no signs. We ordered our meals and they put the kids meal through aswell. Then as we were waiting we were approached by a member of staff and told kids had to be out by 8pm, we explained that we had ordered food and puddings. And they rushed our food, then brought the kids pudding out first to rush. We then waited over half an hour for the other pudding. And we were approached again to be told kids had to be out by 8pm. I'm am annoyed at the service we have recieved. They should have said it was too late for kids, and we would have left. Never going to dine here again!! We were sat out of the way right around the back too and our child was sat at the table. Wasn't like he was running around like most of the kids are normally!

Great food and service had a few meals here and nice place to have drinks with friends too also shows a range off sporting events which is great has I live not far away will be back again soon

We went for our Christmas meal last night (Christmas Eve) the place looked gorgeous! All the tables were set out with a festive feel, the staff were friendly &amp; attentive &amp; the food for the price was gorgeous £10.50 for 3 courses, bargain! I would definitely recommend the barley mow for a lovely meal.

I've herd good things about The Barley Mow and decided to try it for myself. The breakfast menu is unbelievable value for money and tastes even better. All the staff I encountered were very welcoming and friendly, service to match. In a word PERFECT!!

Had a Christmas meal there. Good value and service.

I would like to say the barley mow as got the best food by far, no other pub restaurant could match that, its not just the food that makes it, the service you get from there nice warm friendly staff. we go there on a Tuesday for our sizzler breakfast and there use to be just a couple of us to start with. but now its getting that more people want to come with us, were up to 16 just for breakfast now, we have tried other places like harvester's at kirkstall ans even the old unicorn in bramley but im glad to say we have found the best place to eat now and WONT be going anywhere els to eat out.GOOD FOOD GOOD STAFF. AND VALUE FOR UR MONEY. well done barley mow your the top 10/10 x

Our first visit to this pub as we were visiting friends in the area. The staff were very welcoming, the food really surprised us with the quality and cooking. I had the piri piri chicken (delicious) and my husband had the battered fish. We we're pleasantly surprised when they asked how we would like it battered I thought they came in battered. My husband was very happy as he likes his fish lightly battered, otherwise he takes the batter off and eats just the fish. The portion size was generous as well, Finished off with a lovely coffee. Would go back next time we visit our friends (will visit them more often). All in all a very pleasant evening out.

We are a group of friends who meet at The Barley Mow every week, at first I was not sure I would feel very welcome as myself and my sister are not from the area once through the door it felt as though we were part of the family "What a lovely welcome we all received" the Staff are a class of their own the food is outstanding and every meal is served to perfection talk about Presentation looked too good to eat Tea and coffee included in the price, Out of our group of 15+ there are five of us with different disability's the Staff go out of their way to help could not praise them highly enough so if your out and about in Leeds 13 fancy a meal weather it's a sizzling breakfast ( I highly recommend) I would also recommend the steak pie' chips &amp; peas at 2 for £6.50 its home made,The Manageress Jo is the most welcoming person you could wish to meet as with the rest of the team I recommend The Barley Mow to everyone I speak to about eating out Thank you xx

Went to the Barley Mow last week with a group of friends. The food was fabulous and the staff are really nice. I will definitely be returning.

came in on the 23rd,pub very busy with food orders,was told there would be a bit of a wait for food when ordering which is fine.Anyway food came after 20 minutes which I thought was good.Food was excellent,service was excellent.I was served by a gentleman whos name I did not get,he was very polite and helpful,my visit was at around 8pm on the 23rd December.Will be coming back for sure.

Me and my freinds went in today for christmas eve lunch , 3 courses for 10.50, tables were decorated lovely , food and staff was excellent , all staff was very accomadating to fussy children and a celiac , would recomend to anyone and everyone .

We went as a party on Monday night to attend a Fundraising evening for the new Bramley War Memorial which also served as a tribute to local Serviceman, Rifleman Sheldon Steel who fell just over three years ago.Our party are associated with the Memorial, but the evening was very much organised by Joanne and her team.The night was superbly organised from the food, service and entertainment from arriving until leaving, really appreciated and thanks.

Recently moved into the area and tried the local pub. We received a very warm welcome from all the staff, the service was very prompt during the busy pub and food was amazing! We have recommended The Barley Mow to our family and will be calling again very soon!

My wife and I decided to eat out mid week for a change and go local. After we decided what we wanted I went to the bar and although being acknowledged I waited and waited one barman said sorry and said he was finishing now but proceded to serve many more customers who only wanted drinks.After more waiting we left and went to the Travellers at Armley got served straight away. We now go there every week.

Me and my friend came into the pub for a spot of lunch, now been a restaurant manager for a hotel I don't normally eat out a lot due to working, but all I can say is WOW! Brilliant gammon steak and great portion sizes, the young lad on the bar was really polite and friendly(ginger hair) didn't catch his name tho. Will defo be returning and try one of your many deserts

Well just to say this after a really bad time 1st I never thought a pub could go from bottom to top but it has The service was 100% the guy behind the bar was great new what he was doing and so helpful as well and the young lady was great as well always looking happy and cheerful which makes the customer happy as well Also met the lady that runs the place and today the staff was a credit to her I def be coming again now

Three meals we had between us Starters we thought was okCame to mains there was completely let down none of us enjoyed them at all I was really disappointed in this as it was a birthday meal

Brought my family of 5 in for a meal and a drink. In talking with some of the staff, I found out that the management has recently changed, and the manager has made many changes to make the pub more family friendly. The food was very good, and served quickly despite the pub being crowded on a Saturday. I especially liked the chips, and my roasted chicken was lovely. I had some of my son's fish, also quite good. When we come back through this area again, we will definitely stop in here again.

I dont live far from their and my bus gose near it aswell

Was just walking past and seen the sign for £2.99 meals. Thought I would give it a shot! Great portions and what a price! can not go wrong at all.Was quiet but it wont be for long! most people post crap on here about things being bad but for once I wanted to buck the trend and say something positive. Hope they keep up the good work!

After it took nearly 45 minutes to arrive I found the extra time was needed to over 'sizzle' the food. My chicken was badly burnt underneath. The young lady at work there seemed genuinly concerned about this so well done to her. Everyone else seemed satisfied so maybe I was just unlucky.

great if you want a drink on a weekend but the food is awful!! everything re heated! very cheap but the food reflects that! even my sons cookie desert came out warm because they'd had to microwave defrost the biscuit! RANK!

good food and beer reasonable prices

Went for a nice family meal on a sunday...place full of drunks and a group of girls arguing! Not a nice atmosphere at all,maybe during week would be quieter? Food ok and reasonably priced.
