The Barrels in Luton - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

Brilliant pub located just around the corner from the airport hotels so a great spot to escape to. Very reasonably priced ales, clean area and friendly staff. Would thoroughly recommend dropping in.

No food currently however I like it as it's a much quieter pub than some in the area and there's plenty of seating areas and parking outside. The pub is almost parallel with Inspire Gym and close to Stopsley village with stores and connections close by should you need transport or a stop at a store to pickup takeaway or food in general. Gregg's is also close by at Jansel House. I would definitely stop here again for a drink and catch-up like I did on this stop off. The ladies inside are very nice and give a good service. TV screens around but not all were on in this occasion.

Highly recommend this pub. Staff are friendly and helpful. Evelyn, the manager, was great when we went to organise a funeral reception. She made the process easy. And on the day it went smoothly and the buffet was excellent. Thank you

Great place to socialise. Will definitely revisit.

Always a good night when we visit the barrels

Pleasantly surprised. My local which I hadn't used before that was made to feel welcome by some excellent friendly staff and good beer. Will definitely be paying more visits soon. UPDATE The new landlady is awesome and is working hard to make this a family boozer. Great work 👍🏻 Apparently they will be getting an outside refresh and the name might be changing too?

A great place for all! Pool table, dart boards and if not interested a nice lounge! Great staff, very attentive

Great friendly pub on the outskirts of Luton. Pool, darts and football on the tv . Decent beers too . Well worth a visit

Lovely family day , all the staff made it a lovely atmosphere

Excellent food and attentive staff. Nothing was too much trouble and we felt really welcome. Lots of screens for viewing sports and an outdoor seating area too. Will be back soon! Thanks for a great time!

I visited the pubs reopening recently. It’s been renovated with new owners and management. Great atmosphere with a lovely beer garden. Family friendly vibes and great selection of drinks at a good price. The pub looks fresh and has a lot parking out front. I enjoyed playing pool and darts, and was served with a big smile. Will definitely visit again.

Absolutely lovely pub and lovely team serving you! Made me and my family feel so welcome and they are very kid friendly! Would highly recommend coming here for an all round amazing experience !

Lovely ladies now service with a smile and chat. Quiet presently but that's fab for playing pool and darts. Lush cocktails at good prices too!! Wish new management all the best!

Good pint of Guinness & service with a smile Many Thanks

Just started a learning disability lunch time once a month. Great food Great atmosphere Staff friendly and approachable Lovely meal all clients enjoyed

Lovely pub relaxed atmosphere, very friendly and welcoming bar staff. It was nice to see fully stocked fridges with a good selection of chilled ciders and lagers. Huge choice of spirits and beers. Sat in the garden, which, might I add was very clean - bar staff came out to clear empty glasses regularly. Food is fresh, made on the premises - very tasty burgers. They have had a birthday party and several wakes held there, always handy to know. In general the pub was very clean, and tidy, including the toilets!!!!!

Great atmosphere, fantastic live music and always service with a smile. Love this place!

Polite, good food, reasonably priced and very helpful.

A very relaxed, clean, friendly pub suitable for many occasions.

The pub been redecorated and the staff are so friendly.

The Barrels is a great spot for a few drinks and a game of pool/darts. The staff are lovely especially Bev and Evelyn. Also been told they will have food on in the next couple of weeks

Enjoyable family pub, great to bring kids along. Lovely beer garden

Terrible service and bad attitude, not even knowing the basic F&B guideline.

Is a good spot for chill out. But no food provided and can't do and outside delivery service. Bar tender show bad manner on us while we eat outside the shop.

The environment is good, very suitable for relaxing with friends. But no staple food or snacks are provided. The staff at the bar have a bad attitude and no manners.

Waitress very rude and no manners. Racist!!!

Nice pub good friendly staff .not to badly priced . And a good selection.

Thank you for the positive vibes....you are one of the best places to be in Stopsley...Anastasia...

Good to see this pub is going to be re-opened and from my understanding the new management team are very well respected within the industry. So happy days, the sooner it opens the better, thanks you very much 👍

Would recommend The Barrels following our mother's funeral gathering - thank you Sean for providing everything we needed. The buffet was excellent and plenty for everyone at a good price. We were grateful to spend as much time as we needed with family and friends who we had not seen for some time.

Good food and prices! Nice and friendly staff.

Very welcoming pud friendly staff. Great food

A good old style pub with 2 dart boards and 2 pool tables. Food is good to.

Lovely pub. We went there yesterday after our mothers funeral. Lisa has been great, helpful and friendly, letting us meet and set up a photo board prior to the funeral. she did an excellent buffet for us, with plenty to go round. Fantastic value for money. We cant thank you and your staff for all your hard work

Large. Well decorated pub with nice staff

First time going there. Staff are polite drink prices reasonable and parking not bad.

Local pub that appears to have just reopened with a new bar manager. He seems to be a really friendly guy so hopefully will have a long and prosperous stay. The beers are mainly Heineken owned but do have a decent range including a Blade machine with Heineken 0.0. It's layed out with some tables and some smaller booths offering is a different way to split up the seating. Each of the booths has it's own flat screen TV which I thought was a brilliant idea as rather than having to just stare at the usual screen on a wall you have a choice to stay with your party or partner. There will be food in the next couple of weeks so will give them a try again after that. Post Covid the pub's owner has taken over from the management team and is trying to return it to a family local. The area is crying out for this,so good luck.

Ahhhh the Barrels....my old local. After living within a minute's walk of this pub I reckon I could count on 2 hands the number of times I've actually been in it. Was a good venue for a catch up.

A nice bar to go too. An edge of out of town bar for locals n visitors. Big area too. Land lady very polite.

Opened beer garden. Nice service. Tasty food.

A hot asian girl used to work there

Lovely pub. We went there today after our Aunts funeral. The new landlord Jason was great and did an excellent buffet for us. He was very accommodating. Prices were excellent too. Thanks to Jason & staff for your hard work.

they currently have a "Rocking Rudolph" badge on one of their ale pumps, but that is not what is being sold...lovely staff though...

Very nice pub always loved it many years ago customers lovely

Good choice of beer at a reasonable price.staff very friendly.

Although there was only one cask ale on it was in good condition wasn't too mainstream and reasonable priced.

My experience is mine. Its not to comment on a public forum.

Very cozy for an evening drink!

Friendly pub with some nice beers, service was nice and friendly. Would certainly pop in when in area.

Good service even though only one barmaid working felt sorry for her as it was packed

Could be a lovely bar, just needs a good makeover

Not a bad pub with a good selection of drinks. However it seems to get very few customers possibly due to there being no food available. Also certain bar staff are clueless about the make up of some of the most basic of drinks. Can see this pub closing sooner than later when with a bit of effort it surely could be buzzing. Will wait and see.

Nice inside and plenty of teles to watch sport on .0

Very nice pub with friendly bar staff

It's been done out really nicely in here, and the Landlord is lovely

Always nip over for a pint after Scuba Diving in the Active Luton pool on a Thursday

Great night with good people.😁😁😁

Ok pub haven't been recently due to the lack of craft/real ales not available.

I enjoyed my time in the barrels, nice pub...

Beer was OK but the food wasn't up to much.

Family run pub, can tell who the regulars are, tv screens in each booth, sporty kind of pub

New management, looking promising. Beer not the cheapest in town though.

Hit and miss as to whether they'll have decent beer on, the food was pretty ropey and the staff weren't really in a rush to serve people. Such a shame. It could be a great family pub but it definitely isn't!

Good beer and food quick service

Improved so much under the new owners. Screens all over and a nice little beer garden.

Very warm welcome and good company.

Since its refurbishment, the pub is now a real hub of the community. With a no nonsense bar manager who has turned it back into a family orientated pub. Good for a summers evening in the garden, or to watch a game on one of the many T.V screens. Well worth a visit on passing.

A wonderfull friendly pub and people- 5 stars

Good food good beer great sports, what more could you want

Friendly staff but over an hour wait for food, then got order wrong

Nice place but very slow food service

Nice big pub, with a mix of regulars, and occasional customers. Friendly, attentive manager. A good range of drinks, and good food. Lively on Fridays, when there is usually entertainment.

Friendly well run pub with good simple economically priced food and beverages
