THE BARLEY MOW

The Barley Mow is a hidden gem in Marylebone that feels like a warm hug from your grandma—if your grandma poured you pints and chatted about life. It's a cozy spot with a historic charm, serving up tasty pies and a solid pint of Guinness. Seb, the owner, doubles as a bartender and is all about making your experience memorable, which is a nice touch. The atmosphere is welcoming, and it’s a great place to kick back after a long day of exploring London.

If you’re lucky, you might catch a live quiz or some fresh oysters, but be prepared for a potentially long wait if the place is busy. The food is good enough to keep you coming back, but don’t expect Michelin star dining. Just good vibes and good company—exactly what you want from your local pub.
