Lovely old pub restaurant with fabulous outside eating space as well as inside. Lots of parking spaces in own car park. Not far from the canal. Delicious homemade food. Would recommend!

Good varied menu. Mostly traditional pub food. There is plenty of seating inside, and plenty of seating areas outside. Outside has a large area with views of the canal. There is a car park but it seems to get full fairly quickly, so you may have to park on the road. Easy to get to via road or walkway next to the Grand Union canal. You order and pay at the bar, so remember your table number. Dogs are welcome both inside and outside the pub. Intact this is very dog friendly offering dog ice cream, and dog sausages !! Ask when ordering. Friendly staff. Good selection of real ales and lagers. Food did take 40 minutes to arrive, however we did visit on a sunny Sunday afternoon so it was fairly busy.... hopefully this was just a one off !! I would still visit again despite this. Great for family dinners/lunches as they have large circular tables in the garden that can hold 8 people.

Always a lovely experience. Traditional pub with friendly staff, a good range of drinks, featured brewers and craft ales. Sunday roast is recommended but also offers decent pub food.

Lovely little pub sat by the canal, we’ve eaten here a few times now and it’s always lovely. If you sit on the garden you can watch the boats go by and it does have its own mooring point do you can tie up and enjoy a meal and a drink and then stagger back! The pub has a large car park and was mostly empty when we arrived however on weekends this can fill up quickly. The pub is also dog friendly inside and out so your 4 legged friends can join you as well. It’s a typical old pub lots of nice beams and a warm atmosphere. It serves typical pub food and can’t be faulted on that as it’s really nice! We drove down today and had lovely service from the start. Friendly attentive waitress who kept checking everything was ok, we had mains and dessert and couldn’t fault any of it. Fish and chips were cooked perfectly with a good side portion of peas, and I followed it up with a very nice sticky toffee pudding. Nice pub, great atmosphere and great food.

This is our second trip here to date. They have a great choice of Beers/Ales , live music at the weekend, massive outdoor area which is great for kids or pets alike. Food is home cooked with choices of seasonal veg/ meat locally sourced. Vegetarian dishes are available and they are great. Beware, if you want to book a table for the weekend, book a week in advance , otherwise you will never get a table, as this place IS very popular with the locals and surrounding areas.

We absolutely love this pub, the outside is done beautifully, there loads of garden space including sheltered areas. The inside gives you a real country feel and the staff are very friendly, this properly explains why it was very busy. The food was very enjoyable, again I would recommend booking a table if you wish yo eat.

Very nice canal side pub to be found in Cosgrove, great size garden and a large covered patio area ideal for Al Fresco dining. It was pretty quiet when we went so not a lot of atmosphere, but should imagine this changes when busy. There was a lot of people dining and from what I saw it looked great, got hold of a menu and it is quite varied and not too expensive. A friend of mine arrived and I asked him what the food was like, he said it has always remained to be of a high standard, so good enough for me. Good range of real ales, wines etc. Very nice comfy feel to the interior of the pub, well worth a visit.

Classic English pub in the country. Everyone's nice. Had a curry; I was happy. I've never eaten sticky toffee pudding before, but I liked it. They have local farm cider and local chutney

Love this place, went twice within one month, fab staff, venue,food is to die for (Burger - highly recommend- one of the best we have ever had, it was one of those burgers that you just didn't want it to finish as so good!!) Very reasonable prices as well, We spent NYE here too and had a set meal which was great! Will definitely travel back to come and dine here again! Thankyou everyone at the Barley Mow, keep doing what you do :) Adam & David + two little dogs (heidi & moby) xx

Lovely meal in a village pub, although very much a dining atmosphere on the evening we went there were some tables set aside for locals/drinkers. The views over the canal were lovely from a well tended garden.
