Only a quick visit. So, my rating may not be taken as a full rating. This pub was visited during a Wednesday evening, and no food were purchased. On the positives, the atmosphere was calm, but tinged with a touch of edginess. This was mirrored, but masked well enough, by the barmaids. The 'locals' themselves were true locals, ie down to earth and 'working class'. Show civility and respect, and you'll be reciprocated. Drinks were the usual standard fare. Nothing special. There's a pool table and football 'on the box' too. Despite these positives, there were only two immediate negatives: a) it was a cold Dec day and coffee wasn't served (only cold drinks sold), and b) two of the locals decided to 'own' the pool table despite having an inkling that my colleague and I had wanted to pit our skills against each other (but we were polite and didn't force them off). Overall, not my sort of pub but it has its own 'charm'. It's a bit 'old world' for me. I would be happy to visit it again (if these two same 'far out' locals don't own the pool table next time?). For the full experience, I would feel punch-ups, blood, spit and hair pulling has been a part of this pubs history, giving it it's own special character. Waiting for Del to walk in now...
Great pub! We go on the way to and from the Rugby. Downside: only one Guinness pump but I'm told they're getting a second one installed soon. Fair price. Great pint. 👍
Unfortunately, on the day of probably the biggest RU game of the season for Tigers, the Barley Mow managed to sell out of Guinness. As a result I didn't stay long enough to check out the food offerings.
Came in for a quick drink on the way back home was chatting with a couple of locals and bar staff all were friendly pint of Stella £3.60 TVs for sports music on in certain evenings toilets clean will be going to visit again soon!
Great little place, good beer at a decent price. The new owners are very welcoming and accommodating.
