Now a fish 'n' chip shop. Disheartening.

By Barnsley Brewery I meant Acorn Brewery (whoops).

A bit of a disappointment, given the write-up in the Good Beer Guide. The exterior, despite a couple of nice architectural (Art Deco?) features is actually quite tatty and dull. The modernised interior is loud and lairy (especially so I thought, given it was a Tuesday afternoon!). With loud music competing against a loud TV and then the punters bellowing over both to make themselves heard.

5 hand pumps at the bar but only two ales actually on - (Black Sheep and Old Peculiar) the other pumps didn�t have any indication that they get used much. My OP was good and was quite cheap - �2.40. There's a sign outside advertising Barnsley Brewery beers - but not one was available inside!

Basically it's a town centre bar which happens to sell a couple of decent quality beers. I guess if you�ve got a few minutes to kill waiting for train it�s worthwhile but if you�re in town for any length of time you�d be better off heading for the Dove or Keel.

closed when I visited on Sunday evening. Shame, given the previous reviews

I understand this is changing owners next week so the beer was a bit run down from when I was last in here. Theakstons XB, Acorn Barnsley Bitter and Bradfield Farmers Blonde. Beer was ok, pub nice enough being a large one bar establishment. Will have to see what the new owners do.
