Food was great, I was there as part of a party of 16, all mains came out together and were enjoyed by all. Desserts were equally impressive.

Lovely Sunday lunch. It's a bit out of the way in so much as you have to drive a few miles up a dead end road as there's no through road. But the better half and myself both enjoyed it. Clean, friendly, reasonable prices. Decent pint. Gets busy by the looks of it but several pub rooms all nicely set out if you can't get in the dining room. It's a bit of a distance for us but I'd happily call back again if we're that way. Cheers.

Very quiet when we visited. Staff friendly. Decor very good. Had a choice of real ales, all excellent. Food very good. It's quite a way from Howden and Barmby has one road in and out. Would visit again.

Lovely ambience, old, well established pub with an open fire, easy parking. I came with a group of colleagues for lunch, which had been pre ordered. Great choices of traditional pub grub, tapas, sandwiches, and lighter options. Barmaid welcoming, great service. The meals arrived a little later than requested, but they were catering for 15 of us. I ordered sausage and mash, which came with vegetables and extra gravy. Good quality, well cooked and tasty. Everyone in the group enjoyed the food, and the staff were very attentive, bringing drinks to the tables. Good choice of desert, lots of ice-cream flavours, I had treacle tart which was really good. A little off the beaten track but worth the detour.

Four of us had lunch here. We had never been before but what a find! It's a lovely cosy village pub with very friendly staff. The presentation and quality of the food was excellent. If you have never been then you must try it.

I don't drink but the food is first class. Great place for a romantic meal with the other half and very pleasant atmosphere. Nice pictures of some of the history of Barmby as it is does have a lot of interesting history.

Food was easily worth the cost. The main meals were well presented and the tapas portions were generous so a large group's meal came at a very reasonable price. The staff were charming and the pub itself was very comfortable.
