The Wentworth in Barnsley - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

Whilst the food at breakfast is really nice, we arrived as a walkin and was refused entry even though they have many empty tables. I went back to my vehicle and I could make a reservation!!! I have been to this establishment many times and it is the first time I have received this kind of service.

Yes again taken my children hear for food for hairs to be found in the food to be told the staff do not wear hair nets now beard snuds

Had I have known what the Food was going to be like, then I would have avoided this experience. Not for me

Not perfect but a good meal with family

Cheap and cheerful. Play area great for kids. Regular visitor here. Going again soon. Just been back. Enjoyed my steak and drinks. But the place was virtually empty and it's Saturday night 😞. Maybe time for new ideas 😉

Cheap and cheerful, food is ok. Our desserts never came out, had to ask a couple of times before the kitchen started preparing them (30 minutes after we finished our mains). We ended up cancelling them and got given a refund, extremely happy how they handled it

Came for an afternoon birthday meal with my niece and nephew who boasted about it being my birthday to the lady in the play area. This lady then proceeded to make us feel very welcomed and special as she brought a gift for the birthday girl. Food and service was lovely!

Absolutely brilliant lady in the play area she couldn’t do enough for you amazing with the kids and so lovely to talk to will definitely be back thank you Pamala ur amazing and the food was lovely too ❤️

Good place for reasonably priced meals the staff are very welcoming and efficient. We had an early evening meal the food was well cooked and served hot. Would recommend

Not happy at all , Went to see my sister and husband the service is absolutely awful, we ask for hot water for my granddaughter bottle , but was refused, as we might burn her even though we told them that we had a flask that cools baby water down, we weren’t told that last order for food was nine clock , waitress was rude, and didn’t have much to choose from, will not be going back they

Staff very helpful and excellent service. Food good.

Went for fish and chips today on way home from barnsley absolutely disgusting would not recommend to anyone will never be going again

Great place, lovely food staff were brilliant.

We were a group of 4 adults and 1 child. A couple of pizzas and dirty chips were pretty good and service was with a smile. Our girl played happily with others and the play are was safe for a three year old. Nice lunch, if unadventurous.

There was several issues that could have been addressed by a more attentive workforce. The table top was sticky, the cutlery wasn't properly clean, the food was poorly prepared, not spoiled but certainly not very enjoyable. No atmosphere as the place was almost empty and I can see why!

Staff were rude and spent all their time just stood in a big group chatting. Service was slow despite being empty. Salad was brown. Food was mediocre, like bad school dinners. Toilets were absolutely disgusting and covered in poo with mess on the seats and paper all over the floor. Will not return. Would advise you give it a wide birth.

I had the veggie lasagne and it was beautiful, arrived at the table very fast. Unlimited soft drinks, what’s not to love - except Dr Pepper unavailable.

My son took me for a birthday meal really enjoyed it would recommend t

Extremely quick service, food ok, not busy.

Stayed at the premiere inn next door for 2 nights as family of 4. Ate here both evenings and breakfast. Food was good value for money with a good choice. Service was good too. Big thanks to Pam and the team for looking after us 😊 would definitely visit again 👍

Waited ages to order at the counter only to be told they'd ran out of Carvery, on a Sunday, at half 2!.

Staff were not very helpful, our table was booked for 5.45pm our friends were booked for 5.30pm we asked if we could sit near them, but the staff members said it was full and could not accomodate our request. The restaurant was probably half full. The photo shows it. The manager said she was expecting alot of people, not one party came in and sat where we asked to sit to join our friends. Ridiculously ran. No carvery on a sunday afternoon, which had apparently run out by 2.45pm, and food from main menu also had limitations as this too was not available. Our first and most likely last visit. However food was really nice.

Shame that it's up for sale. Always a good meal served by very friendly and informative staff. Well done to everyone.

We went for lunch here today as a family of 6 and was very disappointed. Sunday lunch was average, carrots burnt, puddings cold and overall not great. I had a vegetarian hot dog which looked a week old but edible. I would highly recommend not ordering cocktails. As I had passion fruit martini that was served flat, not frothy. I also had pina colada which had no pineapple juice in and just poured over ice. When I ask for pineapple juice, I was told they don’t sell it. It wasn’t supposed too have that in. I was then rudely approached at the table to tell me it was out of a bottle and would have pineapple already in. I didn’t drink and will not be visiting again. Bad experience, rude staff, would not recommend

Food was absolutely stunning. Staff excellent attitude. Only down side was the 1hr wait for mains. Overall excellent.

Very slow service today, we had a 45 minute wait for our main, very slow service and it wasn't busy.

We stayed at the Premier Inn next door, so came and enjoyed the breakfast. It's great value, for £10.99 per adult, and my 2 lads got to eat free It's hot breakfast, cereals, yoghurts, fruit, pastries, drinks, fresh coffee etc etc. The staff are friendly and helpful

Excellent staff, very attentive, and great food.

Food lovely, staff very friendly and helpful

Can't fault this place. First time using it and the staff we're really friendly, reasonable price and the food spot on. Definitely come will be back.

Food was shocking purchased the mix grill. The steak was horrible chewing it for days. Staff were nice and service was good. Won't be visiting there again anytime soon

Staff was great but the Chef can’t cook I’m afraid lol

An excellent meal Supported all our dietary requirements Amazing staff Pam Jodie Sophie and Jack, could not have been more helpful Definitely recommend this venue We will be returning

Not bad - join the bonus club for better value. Just have one comment to make and that is to the restaurant supervisor - don’t ask if everything is ok if you are not prepared to do anything about it when there is an issue. Being told it’s out of your control is simply not good enough.

Flaking paint on ceiling above the table we was seated at .asked to move apparently all other tables where booked at 16:30 pm on a Saturday but restaurant sat almost empty so walked out. Think the place definitely needs a refurbishment. Awful to have flaking paint on a ceiling above tables. Yuck 🤢

Won't be back for sure food took ages and staff made feel unwelcome wanted to just chat between themselves....

Excellent food, staff friendly and helpful, will be returning, thanks

Stopped for a coffee and was welcomed quickly and efficiently. The restaurant was bust but the atmosphere was welcoming and good. The carvery looked very appetizing, fresh and I regretted not needing food! The manager, Craig asked if I needed help and seemed genuinely wanting to help. There was a slight malfunction with the coffee machine and Pamela dealt with most professionally and quickly. Very impressed.

Only stopped off for a quick coffee but very pleasantly surprised. A lovely atmosphere, staff friendly and helpful. Very clean, especially the toilets. Although not needing a meal the carvery looking really appetizingand I regretted not needing food. But BF I've visited.

Truly dreadful. Dy peas thin gravy and thin tasteless pies. What a joke! Don’t waste your money. If you are staying at the adjacent Travel Inn go to to McDonald’s next door. Even there you will get a much much better meal,

We had 4 meals between us. 2 steaks which were cooked perfectly. 1 smothered chicken, and a lasagne. All good was hot and came on warm plates. Cooked to perfection and service was great by all staff, on particular Kat. Will be back again.

Good stop for a quick meal decent prices

Not bad, friendly staff but the food wasn't that hot when it arrived at the table hence no 5 stars

I recently visited here with my 2-year-old son, and while I can’t comment on the food, I have to rave about their play area. It was a fantastic experience for my little one. The play area provided a safe environment for him to explore and have fun while I enjoyed a bit of relaxation. The staff ensured that the area was well-maintained , giving me peace of mind. My son had a blast, and it was wonderful to see him so engaged and happy. If you’re looking for a family-friendly spot with a great play area for toddlers, I highly recommend it checking out

Average pub. Nothing outstanding

After a long day three weary people wandered in for dinner ...it was 19.45 ... when I enquired about food I was told that if we ordered in the next five minutes food would be possible . I hurried the others along and our order was placed .... Lasagne . mixed Grill & a rump steak ... A large glass of Malbec , bottomless coke & a pint of larger Shandy ..... The Malbec wasn't the best I have had but it was passable, it was the bottom of the bottle so perhaps they don't sell much of it . The food arrived in a reasonable amount of time . Everything appeared to be ok ... the chips with the mixed grill were overcooked ( dark and very crispy ) the onions rings were also over cooked . The Lasagne was nice and well presented . But we were hungry so no complaints were made . Whilst we were eating our meal a member of staff came over and said that if we needed more drinks could we get them as the bar was closing at 9 ( 21.00 ) . I am slightly confused by this as the website clearly states that they open until 22.30... on the whole food was fine but sadly in my eyes the review reflects the closure at 21.00 hours . I would be interested in hearing the reason behind this

Easter Monday afternoon at around 2.30pm and the place was empty. We now know why. It took ages for the food to arrive and when it did it was cold and half of it was missing. Very disappointing. We both had different meals but both were poor and definitely not value for money. We won't be returning.

Unbelievable experience. Staying at the primer inn next door so booked so we could both have a drink. Got in there bar on the Saturday night around 8.45 got are drinks went to get second drink at 9.15 then being told the bar was closing at 9.30. Then asked to leave at 10.00 So on to Sunday, walked into bar at 8.40 thinking it would close at 9.30 again. That wasn't to be the bar was closed 8.30, yes I said something and got a drink. At 9.00 we where all asked to leave. There was around 20 people drinking. 5 more got turned away after me. Really wasn't expecting this on Easter weekend. First and last time that I'll be going there, shame as its a nice area.

Had a lovely meal here whilst my great nephews spent time in the play area. Fish, chips and mushy peas were very nice.

We had a really nice family breakfast. Lovely food and with kids eating free it was great value. Welcoming and friendly staff helped make it enjoyable for all of us.

Not a bad place for a family meal, there is a kids play area, the food was average, it wasn't exceptional tasty food, but it is a large chain restaurant, also it's quite pricey for a family of four, the service was ok but you should book a table before your visit, also allow about 30 mins wait time after you order, before your food gets delivered to your table. The pudding is very nice but also very expensive and don't expect a big portion. They also give blue light and x forces discount.

Called today with my partner Had the "2 mains for 11 pound 50" Along with a starter and desert to share Was a little put off about calling with some previous reviews However food was spot on Decent size portions good value for money It's not best food in world, but the price does reflect that Excellent friendly staff/ service Would recommend while prices are what they are

Turned away because a 9 year old was too tall for play area. Which was empty at the time.

Excellent value for money and service.

Decent breakfast but the quality is lacking

We go here 3 times a week in the afternoon midweek lovely place and great food and offers all the time . We now have the sirloin steak most visits so tender cooked to perfection. Beer was tetleys now been changed to worthington still as good . Offers via email from Brewers Fayre arrive regularly with discounts and the bonus card points are fabulous we get a free bottle of wine once a week . A mention for staff member PAMELA who is usually around in the afternoon when we visit makes sure we are ok . Top marks to all the other staff as well .

The food here is typical chain pub fare, it's cheap and cheerful.

We visited last week when I think unfortunately the regular staff weren’t working. We got there about 4:15 and there was hardly anyone in. It took ages for our food to arrive and when it did it was overcooked. The fish was so dry. When I went back up to the bar to order my son’s dessert I was told there was a 30 min wait so we left and went to McDonalds for a McFlurry. Won’t be visiting again. First bad experience we’ve had at a Brewers Fayre.

Zac who served our food. His customer service was outstanding. Credit to the company. Also Pamela too very professional. Well done to both people.

Visited the Wentworth this Sunday again as we do on a regular basis. The food and service is second to none. Ruby, Pam, Becky, and Rebecca was on the bar and floor today and as always it's a pleasure. All of them are so friendly and can't do enough for you despite being rushed of their feet and still find time to always smile. Was gutted to hear it was Rebecca's last day as she's moving on to pastures new. We will miss her after seeing her most times after so many years. We had the mixed grill and couldn't fault it. We upgraded the steak to 8oz and it was cooked to perfection so I don't normally say anything but today I asked for the name of the chief as I was so impressed so a big shout out to Windy, Abe, and the rest of the kitchen team as they are the back bone staff hidden in the shadows. It was just how I like it😁👍

As always Sundays is my favourite day of the week to enjoy the fantastic carvery from the Wentworth. The turkey is always so tasty and never dry with very generous potions thanks to Craig. We were welcomed by Terri with a smile who walked us to our table. Fantastic family atmosphere and smiley bar staff, Ruby and Rebecca!! The children in our party loved the play area. The young girl in the Play area, Sophie was friendly and very helpful. We will return

We went for a children’s birthday party for 11 young children and we was given 10 mins to get the children to eat their food , which is hard to do as most was under 4 years old …. It does actually say it’s a 2 course meal ,which it’s not . The staff then tidied area for next kids party , they then had the cake and birthday song on the reception for the children which was laughable to be honest , after complaining to the manager about the whole charade I was just brushed off and was given no apology …….dont waste your money. You’d be better off just paying for the children to go to the play area and then take them up McDonald’s next door

We had a fantastic experience after a long 5 hour journey we were ready for a rest and something to eat, we were greeted by Sam the manager who then introduced us to Pamela our server that was the start of a lovely evening, a warm welcome and a comfortable place to sit lovely and warm. We enjoyed main meals deserts and the 2 for £10 cocktails absolutely fantastic value for money thank you girls for taking such good care of us we certainly will be back again!

Service 100 % Staff Friendliness 100% Food Quality 90% The staff at the Wentworth Brewers Fayre are lovely nice people who work hard to make our regular visits great. Can use my Blue Light card on main menu food items for a discount. Nice modern comfortable Whitbread Ltd chain pub with a Premier Inn next door. Been going here regularly for over a year so we spend about £500pm on food and drink. I would say 90% of meals have been outstanding hence we keep going back. Only odd problems have been with some rump steaks being tough and hard to chew one was full of grizzle but had many that have been excellent and tender. Wife has the sirloin whish is always tender. The daytime menu ( 2 for £11.79 ) is ok and the club sandwich is perhaps the best on offer. Staff members Kate, Sam C, Pamela and Jodie all spring to mind as being so nice and helpful and a credit to the company. A few others too whose names I cannot remember.

Go here quite often and had some nice steaks . On our last visit this week was served at bar by Sam C and later at our table gor chatting to Pamela and Jodie . All friendly and made our visit perfect . Meals come very fast as usual and beer was good . The Bonus card is great you get a lot of points when spending money . 500 points gets a free bottle of wine which for us is once a week.

Lovely meal again at The Wentworth. Value for money and always served with a smile from Pamela. She goes above and beyond for her customers.

. The food was delicious, the drinks were refreshing, and the atmosphere was lively. The service was also excellent, thanks to Luke the barman. He was friendly, attentive, and professional. He made sure that we had everything we needed. He also gave us some recommendations on what to order. I would definitely come back to this place and ask for Luke again. He made our night more enjoyable and memorable.

Had a lovely meal again at the wentworth and couldn’t fault , always served with a smile and great service , value for money and great variation on the menus.Pamela always a joy to chat to 5 stars as far as we concerned. 👍

Had to change my review last year's Christmas lunch was fantastic this years 25/12/2023 lunch was a absolute waste of money 5 prawns in the starter bread dry . Moving on to Christmas Dinner the guy butchering the turkey gave me and my wife the small bits that fall off as cutting that wouldn't amount to a full portion for one ,sprouts hard ,roast potatoes burnt but mushy ,mash like butter, gravey was brown warm water .we go most weekends though the year and after this weekend we may not go back so dissatisfied after last year. The other staff who were working was really busy and we appreciate them been there but this is far from a Christmas Dinner that we expected after last years and the food we get every weekend . The waitress did come and ask if everything was OK we expressed our disappointment in the dinner she then said do you want more meat but we just wanted to get home sorry guys this was my honest opinion and having paid so much I felt let down

Great food, good atmosphere, Luke on the bar was lovely and helpful! Friendly vibe, worth a visit for casual dining experience.

Excellent food and service food always cooked fresh good value and quality served by Pamela always friendly with a smile and a word very welcoming

Worst food I've ever eaten. Never had a steak that was unchewable until now.

First and last visit. Food was awful! Steak wasn’t edible. Burger meat was dry, even the kids turned their nose up at their pizza. Pro? Parking.

Been to Wentworth twice first time meal overcooked second time in Saturday 25th had chicken chips salad chicken very pale no taste bland and for the price very poor expensive. Been again thought it might have changed in 4year how wrong I was poor quality meal service was absolutely diabolical had to keep asking how much longer It was a family group of 30 and had to pay for kids to go in play area and some couldn't go in because they were too tall had upset kids under 10 so definitely never again

It was exactly as it said on the tin lovely food well cooked and hot🔥

Mandy & Joe were amazing! Spot on breakfast. Very nice, very tasty. Defo recommend, really enjoyed this breakfast. Go here

Mandy and Jo where great hosts. I have have to use 100 characters so I am just writing this. Great service though for real.

The meal and the service was absolutely amazing….the manageress was lovely coming over to chat with us… I would highly recommend this place to anyone who wanted a lovely meal in a lovely environment

We love this pub. We take out kids (4 and soon to be 7) here. They love the food and spend most of their time in the soft play together. I normally have the carvery which is always top notch but on the off chance I have a meal from the menu I’m always pleased. Always well-cooked and they will strive to do what they can to swap (I switched chips for a jacket last time). Fantastic staff (shout out to Pamela for her incredible service - she treats us like family).

The Wentworth is our go to restaurant for casual meals or informal family gatherings. The staff are always helpful in any way they can be and there are too many to single out from the management team to the table clearer. Of the ones I...

The customer service at this place is terrible we went for breakfast this morning, we booked a table for quart to 11 as my daughter was at a dancing competition so we booked it for when she finished. We walked In to be told breakfast finished on the dot at 11 and we only had the table for half an hour. We were told that the person tried to call us earlier that morning regarding our booking time but received no call and the entire experience was uncomfortable. The booking system allowed us to book breakfast for that time so we shouldn't be made to feel like we had done something wrong.

Katie at the bar is efficient, professional and has personality plus. She clocked me behind another customer and made me acknowledged while handling a large order.

Called in with our grandson so he could play in the excellent play area and grab a bite to eat . The team that was working on the day Saturday 20th January 2024 were excellent at their job giving us great service and food in...

Absolutely outstanding service today, went for a late lunch to celebrate 3 birthdays and Pamela could not have been more attentive or helpful, she made a fuss of the children for their birthday's and watched over them in the soft play, she also made sure...

Had a fabulous time the food was excellent and Pamela was a fantastic host from start to finish my niece and nephew had a great time in soft play

We've now visited the restaurant twice. On the first occasion I had the fish & chips and my fiancé had the mixed grill. The fish was fresh with crispy batter and was not greasy. The mixed grill was cooked perfectly. The atmosphere was pleasant even though they were busy and the food arrived promptly. The staff were lovely. This inspired us to make a return visit to try the breakfast buffet. We were not disappointed. It was also remarkable value.

Always have a good Sunday lunch here and excellent value for money

Found parking easy. Found a seat easy. What I couldn't find was the flavour of our meal. At around £12 per meal the food was just awful. Shame really as had no other issues.

Fantastic food, service and pint, definitely recommend, all at really good prices as well

Nice atmosphere - quiet relaxing - good service - lovely food

Nice new year's day meal. Atmosphere was a little flat only about 3 tables in use.

Booked a Christmas dinner here for 13 service was awesome food was basically a carvery 1 pig in blanket 2 small pieces of meat everything else was on repeat , starter was nice. We ordered a couple of drinks and at the end I was asked to leave a tip which I found strange as the meal wasn’t cheap and the vouchers we received with early booking would not work either for breakfast or dinner.

Had christmas dinner here today got starter It was just warm we were told it was table service so we waited for our main only to be told after 35 minutes that we had to get our own from the carvery what a disappointing sight the meat looked anemic. The veg was hard the Yorkshire pudding was soggy the mash potatoe was pureed the gravy was so watered down it was translucent and the only thing that had any flavour was the horse radish sauce.then we waited a good 15 minutes for the desert that never came .please save your hard earned money and time

Clean, service was good despite the server for our area clearly being overworked. Chips were underwhelming, undercooked despite us attending when the pub was not busy. Kids menu is good value but not great quality. Softplay is very expensive for what it is. Solid option for a rainy afternoon.

Great service with splendid food

Great food, lovely staff, genuinely nice place to eat & drink. Great play area for children, not overly busy.

Excellent food all fresh and hot service from Pamela was really good happy,friendly and nothing too much trouble an excellent lunch had the Festive meal will definitely be back. Perfect

Great place very friendly lovely meal off the festive menu.Great service Pamela is so attentive makes it special.

Had the mixed grill. Perfectly cooked and didn’t take long. Quality food and great staff.. more than recommend this place.

I frequent the Wentworth regularly with my wife - the food is always good, and we are never disappointed, the staff are polite and happy to help I don't think I've ever seen them without a smile. The staff are incredibly patient especially if you...
