What People Are Saying About Barley John's Brew Pub

In Short – Co-owner John Moore decorated his place with stained glass, murals and wood accents to create an English pub feel. (The handmade bar and tabletops are straight from his late Grandma Helen's maple tree.) A friendly crowd comes for a creative bar menu, (grilled tempeh kabobs, beer brats, pork chops and grilled pizzas) and a long list of brewed-on-site and imported ales. There is also always a seasonally selected beer.

Fun but not very good
by Maiero
Sure, this place brews its own beer, but what it needs is some more customes. Then, the food might not be so terrible and the beer -- which is excellent -- wouldn't be so overpriced. I love Barley John's but it needs a lot of improvement.
- Pros: environment, location
- Cons: food! prices

Awesome food and the best beer to match!!!
by janedawson
My husband and I love to go out on date night. Our favorite place is Barley Johns!!! The grilled pizzas, artichoke dip and the seafood specials are my favorite. If you're in the mood for a burger, the buns are homemade and fit for a king.
I love the Wild Brunette beer-it is one of a kind! We always grab a growler ( half gallon jug) to go. What a crowd pleaser at the cabin. On Wednesdays sometimes we enjoy the 1/2 off bottle of wine and sit outside on the patio to watch the sunset.
On Tuesdays our kids eat for free...our kids love the french fries and the homemade mac and cheese and a kiddy cocktail made just right for kids.
Don't miss this jewel of a restaurant. You will not be dissapointed.
- Pros: Food and Beer from scratch!
- Cons: make a reservation...it is popular

Don't go here for food or ambiance
by movelab
We went here based on the star rating. The place lacked any charm. The bar was tiny, and if you like TGIF's food then you might like the food here. We left before we ordered as the menu was horrible. The beer was good, but that's about it.
- Pros: beer
- Cons: ugly place. food subpar at best
