The Chestnut Tree in Barnsley

Took my baby into the soft play this evening staff are very welcoming and helpful Evie really made it great for my son would definitely come back

We often call at Chestnut Tree for breakfast. Always great value, brilliant quality and the customer service is unique. All the staff are so welcoming and helpful. It just makes us want to call again and again. We do go to other places but they just don’t meet this criteria.

We travel to the Chestnut Tree often, and the staff are great. The food is always great with good portion sizes and a lot of good choices. I hope they bring back the chicken sandwich soon though :(.. Its our favourite. We always have a great laugh with the staff and now on a friendly side with them which is great when coming here, and something you don't get from everywhere in the local area.. Will be back again soon. Thank you.

I visited the pub with my mum, husband and two older children. The pub is lovely and spacious. We ordered 4 mixed grills and the katsu chicken. The mixed grills were perfect, cooked just right and a good selection of meats (very big portion too), the katsu chicken was tasty especially the sauce. We will definitely be visiting again.

We are occasional visitors to chestnut tree but this visit was less than ideal. The 30 minute wait was ok with us but we expected all the meals to be served together and not the long delay for the fourth meal when we ordered all meals together. The mix it up sizzler was brought out cold and was certainly not sizzling, the veg was cold and sweet potatoes luke warm. The smokin' jack burger was still pink in the middle. Both these meals were returned and remade but this really took the shine off the family meal.

We come here on a Tuesday while grandaughter at dance we ave a drink and free game of pool as its free pool on Tuesday staff always friendly and helpful

Beers really good now. Can’t only have one though. Burger deal on a Friday is great to bring the work pals. 2 pints and 2 burgers for less than £20. Bargain!

Cold food Wrong orders. Indifferent staff. Dont bother and find somewhere that deserves your money. Doesn’t matter how much you pay you deserve to be served HOT food.

Once again refused service. I specifically checked if they were serving food on the booking form as we had been let down before. Visited after a hospital visit. Went to order food at 8.40 to be told the kitchen was closed. The couple on the next table said well they are making our food now so complain, the kitchens still open. But what's the point. The food is lovely when you can get it. It's not as though the place was busy tonight too.🤷‍♀️

Staff are super friendly and great. Had a lovely meal which was perfect and delicious. Amazing Staff & Amazing Food. will definitely be returning to this lovely pub!!

Thought id leave a review on here too as its deserved. staff are always fantastic with us, always have conversations with us and make it like a second home for us. food is great and cheap and also find myself looking at a new deal they have on every other week. the mix and match ones are great value even at full price. we enjoy the steak pies too, they are unbelievable they are.. well done chestnut tree

The staff were friendly and helpful and the food was lovely i had the chicken skewers and sweet potato fries ans coleslaw and it couldn’t be faulted! Thanks

Fantastic Breakfast, different sizes, mega breakfast is a belter. Great service. Will definitely be back, got told about there new menu too which is a great insight

Stopped eating here as over the last 5 years the food is just awful. The venue is handy to go for a drink and catch up with friends and that's the one and only draw up until this weekend. Saturday night, we tried getting another drink from the bar just after 10pm and staff member said they were closing! Googled their hours and supposedly open until 11pm. It just gets worse with every visit.

Was really disappointed with our meal. We decided to pop here on the way home and it wasn’t great at all. The chicken was seriously burnt. We did mention this to the waitress but all she said was I will let the kitchen know. Not great at all.

Absolutely Devine the Camembert and onion chutney and chicken strips starter was lush and the main meal’s chicken new Yorker for our daughter and tandoori sizzler for me and my wife then we had deserts millionaire cheesecake and chocolate torte and the Homer donut was brilliant and the staff the manageress were fantastic we had been before but this was a brilliant meal and good value

I pop in here quite regularly, lovely place with a nice atmosphere. Food is ok, not the greatest.. just typical pub food to be fair, but the prices are reasonable!

Been here today, ordered an iced coffee with caramel which is amazing. Staff very on it and serving people as fast as they could and trying to organise tables for people which is great.

Came here with a group of friends, came to play some darts, pool and watch the football after the Barnsley match. Great place to come for a drink with the lads and even for families too.

Called in to get food for me and my partner. Odered steak witch seemed to take a long time to arrive. When it did arrive i found the chips and peas was cold.i had to then find someone to complain to find i was asked to start on my steak ,they would be staight out with replacement chips and peas.this took another five minutes. Will not recommend or visit the the chesnutree again.

Would recommend this pub for a visit. Just enjoyed a lovely meal ( 15oz gammon with all the trimmings) it was cooked to perfection and served promptly.

Came here for a business meeting again, brilliant coffee. We even had lunch, 2 meals for £11.49 is a pretty good offer considering the quality of meals we received. Will return when in the area again in the near future. Thank you

I had a great time with my friend Nicholas, we played pool and had a bite to eat, it was lovely. We took advantage of the Sportking app and got 20% off our round, a nice surprise

Amazing food! Great service. Would definitely come again. The kids really loved it. Really good atmosphere for sports in the bar area aswell.

I love this place, staff are fantastic, theyre always bringing out new offers and cheap meals. Never had any issues with our food in the past. Keep coming in for breakfast on a morning as its buy one get one free so you get 2 for £4.79 which is fantastic. I noticed today they are going to be doing quizzes which we will definitely be going to as we used to love them years ago. I just hope they add more outside for the summer.

Amazing place to eat, friendly staff always welcoming. Visit atleast 2/3 times a week. We travel from Huddersfield to Barnsley an have done for years its become our favourite place to eat xx

Staff are always friendly, always have a chat with us, they always seem to have an offer on for food or drinks and the app is amazing for 10% off your drinks when they show something on the tvs, which 9/10 there is always something on sport wise.

Came in for the football at the weekend. It seems that there is a lot more customers again in this place. Service was excellent, staff are friendly, will return.

Friendly team, lovely to visit and have little chats with all the different people. Great food for cheap prices! Always got offers on

Excellent service from Michaels in the Wakey warehouse Always a pleasure to visit with children Will defiantly visit again *****

Nice and quiet for breakfast in the school holidays, good prices and kids enjoy the play area which is also good value for the price.

This spot is great. Thru the day and night food was fab For kids Leanne is brilliant with service excellent service all round

Friendly family pub, perfect to come with the kids and have a nice coffee while they play! Leanne in the wacky warehouse was lovely!

Really nice pub, food was lovley and not a long wait at all! Lovley service from a man called jack :) deffinatly coming back

gave this place a try as we was going past it on a 5 hour car journey after being stuck in traffic. food for the price was excellent staff were very attentive and made sure everything was okay with our food. will try again if in the area on a passing journey. thank you

I was working using the pub as a place for a coffee, bite to eat and to work from. Great lattes, free wifi and the food was not bad either. Will definitely use this space again.

Came in to watch the football with friends from work. Great range of lagers, shame theres no Madri ;) Great Staff, who will make an effort with you and get to know who you are, especially if your a regular face.

Tyler was very polite and nice young lady. The food was average once again it would be nice to go and have a meal without any issues.

Great deals at the minute, had fish from the £5 menu. Expected a small portion for the price but it was huge I couldnt finish my meal. All the staff were smiling and really friendly which made us feel welcome. See you all again soon

Quick Pit stop, enjoyable food. £5 for fish and chips. Excellent staff who you can see are working very hard to make sure the customers are getting a good experience and that's a reason i keep returning.

excellent food and good soft play for children. Leane was friendly and very helpful.try to come every week.

Come regularly with the little one, who enjoys coming to play. Food nice and staff friendly .plenty of seats in play area.

Visited for lunch with our 7 year old granddaughter. Service was friendly & efficient and the food was excellent value. We all enjoyed our food and will return soon.

This place has gone to the dogs freezing cold due to icy blast from the kitchen door being left open on a cold winter’s day. Food cold and greasy won’t be back

Been completely satisfied with most of our visits but today we'll what can I say the food was disgusting and not fit for the dog Best thing about chestnut is Jack what s gentleman and a truly work orientated he is id like a phone call about the quality about the food served there 07485167144

Of the three of us no one really enjoyed their meal. Kids meal was standard. Lasagne tasted like a soup packet sauce had been used it was salty. Garlic bread was burnt but the ciabatta was dusty so you had an odd combination. Lemonade was not very fizzy. Spoke to manager who replaced it but it was only a little bit better. Not much fizz to it at all. Took an age to get hold of anyone at the bar. But the interactions I had were friendly. Had a dessert that was neither hot nor cold just sort of mildly warm. So that was a massive disappointment as I was expecting that to save the meal. Soft play is 5 per child which I think is kind of expensive.. especially if you're only there for 30 minutes. Would rather not visit again

Called in again for food, ordered from the 'Festive Menu'. Spot on again and cant complain at £17.99 for a 3 course meal. My partner loved it and will definitely return again soon and even going to book for a family get together there.

DISAPOINTED.. ORDERED SIZLING CHICK SKEWERS HOT PLATE COLD!! Veg still frozen soggy.. warmed up chips 🤮won’t be returning Greene king not bothered

This pub use to be good but it has certainly gone downhill over the last few months. We go once a week and the number of times they are missing products is ridiculous. The last visit was the worst. Not only were products missing which...

The allergen information at this restaurant was poor. You had to go to their website/app and then it was just listed per dish on the menu. So for instance, the burger was said to contain dairy, but it was most likely the brioche bun that...

Came with family and the food was really nice. We was served by Hannah she was really friendly and best customer service.

Easter afternoon Tea in aid of MacMillan. Lovely presented selection of sandwiches, savoury snacks and lots of lovely cakes, scones with jam and cream etc. Tea, coffee and Bucks Fizz. Will be back for the Christmas themed one.

Not my 1st visit, been numerous times over the passed few years. Always good, but my last visit was fabulous. Seems in the last month or so they have either changed staff training or got new staff. WELL DONE, KEEP IT UP

Food was lovely. Evie who was our waitress was really lovely and went out of her way to sort it so we could take our deserts home.
