Situated in scenic countryside, yet only two miles from Junction 7 of the M11, The John Barleycorn is the ideal place to meet for a drink or to dine from an extensive menu. Its idyllic gardens and outdoor seating area entice many a passerby through its doors, and they don’t leave disappointed. The friendly team prides itself on serving top-quality produce from the local area, which is all freshly prepared in the kitchen.
Seasonality is the name of the game for the highly varied à la carte menu, and there’s also a daily specials board. Fish and vegetarian dishes are plentiful, and there are some tempting homemade desserts, luxury ice creams and sorbets. From Tuesday to Saturday, take your pick from the lunchtime à la carte and bar snack menus; home-cooked roasts are served every Sunday until 8pm. Most dietary needs can be catered for, so be sure to mention any special requirements.
From behind the bar, you can enjoy popular branded lagers and real ales, or you might prefer to sample something from the first-class, competitively priced wine list. If you’re looking for an impressive venue to hold a private party or function, The John Barleycorn can accommodate you and your guests in style.
