    This was my second visit to The Barley Mow in Oakley. As my first visit with friends, the food was delicious, well presented, and the service was excellent. My lasagne and salad was probably the best I’ve ever had, My friends enjoyed, hunters chicken, pork belly and a small fish and chips. The coffee finally was super. Compliments to the chef and our server. She was delightful. I can’t wait to return. asap!!!!!!

    I had the steak pie with mash and gravy and it was very tasty and satisfying, followed by Cookie Dough and icecream which I highly recommend. Service was quick and friendly.
