"Our working group from a local church have lunch out a couple of times a year always book a table here. Due to the pandemic this was the first time since 2019 we’d met up for lunch. The menu is much less varied than...previously, and although the staff were pleasant enough the atmosphere of the place was fairly dead. Whereas the food previously was generous, interesting and home-cooked, today it was indifferent, bland and disappointing. The chips were oven cooked, and tasteless with even the little overcooked potato fragments that lurk in the bottom of the freezer bag being served up. The ‘crispy’ batter on the fish had been cooked at too high a temperature the small pot of peas were not even drained properly. The pate appears to come in pre-moulded portions, and despite specifically asking for no raw onion it was served in the salad garnish. Needless to say we will be looking for somewhere else to eat in future."

Everywhere seemed to be booked up early afternoon, came across this gem. Lovely feel inside, friendly landlord. Staff were second to none. Impeccable service throughout our meal from two ladies and nothing was too much trouble. Was blown away with roast dinner. Simply perfect and...from now on we will come here again and again.

Spontaneous visit for mid week lunch. In the past have really enjoyed jacket potato with chilli but opted for gammon egg and chips which also came with peas and onion rings. Very generous portions and very tasty. The chips were excellent. So often chips are...reheated over cooked etc but these were lovely. Staff were very friendly and welcoming. We shall definitely be returning.

first visit this pub during a trip to see the nearby palastruinen. friendly reception when entering with pleasant personal and a welcoming log fire on a cool day. Pretty standard menu of inexpensive pub classics with a few specials on the...blackboard attentive service from cheerful waiting and bar staff. the food was served quickly and was very tasty with generous portions. if after a good honest pub with well cooked diners with cheerful employees, then this is the place to go!

my daughter brought me to the barleycorn for birthday dinner on the bank holiday Monday. fortunately, we have booked a table, as it was filled by 1 clock. the staff was very friendly. the coffee was amazing and served in huge porcelain canyons in a saucer and mint on the side. as vegetarian we ordered the makkaroni cheese with salate and garlic bread. it was delicious. After we haven't eaten here before we were of a little bit size, we also ordered a side of chips and a side of wobble rings. Oh, my. the portions are enormous and unfortunately we couldn't finish everything that was a scandal, as it was all beautiful. it was very delicious and hot. the salad had a brownish dressur, which was a...

eating was very good from a basic menu. the chef has done very well on himself, the outside was quite busy, inside very quiet. the dame behind the bar was her feet away, which commanded for drinking and eating, she served outside and. by the way and cleaned up, the manager appeared at the end of the service to clear a few things away! ask her wine and drink prices before the there no visible prices. do not be too proud to ask if it is not displayed. I asked for prosecco and was told I could have it through the bottle only. I have been a regular customer with greene king and chef and brewery for many years and was very worried that £28 will be charged! I asked the manager and he said he bough...
