(325)

Situated in an area of huge redevelopment, The Barley Mow is surrounded by a mixture of old terraced houses and new apartments. Five minutes from Temple Meads and Old Market, it's an area with a fast-changing demographic, as scrap metal yards and warehouses are replaced by smart offices and hotels. A splendid double-fronted old pub with plenty of original features and character, The Barley Mow feels like a proper local as soon as you walk through the door. It has original floorboards and fireplaces, a simple bar with eight real ale handpulls and ten keg lines. It feels both original and new at the same time and this is reflected in the huge cross-section of customers since it opened its doors.
