The Barrow Arms Restaurant &bar

Verified
4.7(104 reviews)
92/100
The Barrow Arms is a charming spot in Barrow-in-Furness with fantastic food and warm service that makes it a standout, though you might want to keep an eye on those drink prices and check if it's open.
Pros and Cons
What's Great
  • The staff are incredibly friendly and efficient, always making sure you have a great time.
  • The food is absolutely delicious with generous portions and beautiful presentation – think tasty burgers, ribeye steaks, and desserts like apple crumble that leave you wanting more.
  • It's got a lovely atmosphere, perfect for a relaxed evening, and even celebrities like Dave from the Hairy Bikers have popped in, which says a lot.
  • Food prices are reasonable, giving you solid value for a satisfying meal.
Areas for Improvement
  • Drinks can be quite pricey, like a vodka and coke coming in at £6, which might catch you off guard.
  • The menus are a bit confusing and could do with some simplifying to make choosing easier.
  • There haven't been any recent reviews, and the place seems to be closed right now, which is a real shame given the high praise.

The Harbour Inn is a welcoming pub with a stellar reputation for its friendly vibe and decent digs, but it has a few room quirks that could dampen the experience.
Pros and Cons
What's Great
  • The staff are absolutely brilliant – super friendly and welcoming, making you feel right at home from the moment you walk in.
  • They've got a cracking selection of beers and a cosy atmosphere that's perfect for unwinding after a day out.
  • It's a great spot to use as a base for exploring places like the Lake District, with clean and comfortable rooms that add to the charm.
Areas for Improvement
  • Some rooms can be a bit troublesome with things like thin curtains letting in loads of light at night or noisy toilets that might keep you up.
  • The showers are hit or miss, often going from scalding hot to freezing cold in no time, which is a real nuisance.
  • You might hear a bit too much from the pub downstairs or the road outside, so it's not the quietest place for a good night's rest.

Cunningham's is a charming traditional pub with a welcoming vibe and excellent service, ideal for a relaxed pint or catching the game, though it could benefit from a broader drink selection.
Pros and Cons
What's Great
  • The atmosphere is absolutely spot on – it's warm, friendly, and feels like a proper traditional pub where you can relax and chat with the locals.

Areas for Improvement
  • The beer selection can feel a tad limited at times, with only one or two real ales on offer, which might disappoint if you're after more variety.

Tailors Bar and Lounge is a charming spot in Barrow-in-Furness with a great atmosphere and friendly service, ideal for a relaxed drink, though it has some limitations with hours and menu choices.
Pros and Cons
What's Great
  • The atmosphere is absolutely spot on – it's warm and welcoming, making it a perfect spot for a relaxed catch-up with mates.
  • Staff are brilliant and really attentive; they're hot on things like allergies and always go the extra mile to make you feel looked after.
  • They've got a cracking selection of drinks, like gins and wines, and it's all reasonably priced so you won't feel short-changed.
  • The food is a delight – beautifully presented and tasty, especially for light bites or afternoon tea, which adds a nice touch to the experience.
Areas for Improvement
  • The food options could do with a bit more variety; some folks mentioned it felt a tad light on savoury items, leaving you wanting more.
  • Operating hours are quite limited, only open a few days a week, which might put a damper on spontaneous visits.
  • It can be a bit quiet and cosy, geared more towards a chilled vibe, so if you're after a lively night, it might not quite hit the mark.

The Meeting Place is a cracking little venue in Barrow-in-Furness, ideal for live music lovers and those after a solid meal and good vibes with friends.
Pros and Cons
What's Great
  • The food here is absolutely brilliant – from what I've heard from mates, it's fresh, tasty, and hits the spot, especially with options like the sweet pepper dishes that folks rave about.
  • Live music is a real highlight; they've got an unreal sound system and a cracking lineup of events, from rock tributes to bottomless brunches, making it a top spot for a fun night out.
  • The staff are so welcoming and on point – they go the extra mile, like organising special moments for birthdays or keeping the service speedy during busy events.
  • It's got a great atmosphere that's hard to beat locally, with a vibe that's perfect for gatherings, whether you're catching up with friends or enjoying a lively function.
Areas for Improvement
  • There aren't many vegan options on the menu, which might leave some folks a bit disappointed if they're after more plant-based choices.
  • The place only opens a few days a week, so it can be tricky to pop in spontaneously, especially if you're hoping for a mid-week get-together.
  • Drink prices are pretty standard, which means they don't stand out as particularly cheap, though they're fair enough for what you get.

The Victoria is a cosy Greene King pub in Barrow-in-Furness that's all about solid grub, a friendly buzz, and cracking deals, making it a top pick for a relaxed get-together.
Pros and Cons
What's Great
  • The food is absolutely spot on – think hearty pub classics like fish and chips or a perfectly cooked steak, all done with real care and flavour that leaves you wanting more.
  • It's got a warm, inviting atmosphere that's perfect for catching up with mates or watching the big games on the telly, with a family-friendly vibe and plenty of facilities like a beer garden and dog-friendly spaces.
  • Great value for your money, with exciting deals on pints and meals almost every day, making it an affordable spot for a good night out without breaking the bank.
  • The staff are lovely and knowledgeable, adding to that welcoming feel, especially if you're new to the area or just popping in for a chat.
Areas for Improvement
  • While the reviews we've seen are glowing, the overall rating suggests there might be the odd off day with service or consistency, so it could vary depending on when you visit.
  • Food serving hours end relatively early in the evening, which might cut short your plans if you're after a late bite.
  • Being in the heart of Barrow-in-Furness, it can get a bit lively or crowded during events, which isn't ideal if you're after a quiet pint.

  • It's in a brilliant spot in the heart of Barrow-in-Furness, perfect for popping in after work or exploring the local area, with easy access to nearby businesses and attractions.

Areas for Improvement
  • The operating status seems a bit unclear at times, as it might not always be open when you'd expect, which could put a dampener on spontaneous visits.
  • It's more of a hotel with a bar and restaurant rather than a dedicated pub, so if you're after a lively, buzzing atmosphere, it might feel a tad quiet or functional at points.
  • Details on opening hours aren't readily available, making it tricky to plan ahead without checking in advance, which can be a bit of a nuisance.

Areas for Improvement

  • Being in an iconic Victorian building, some parts might feel a tad outdated or quirky, like the preserved staircase, which could be less convenient for those wanting everything super modern.
  • Without specific operating hours available, it can be tricky to plan a visit, especially if you're popping in for a quick drink or meal.

  • They've got a cracking selection of local beers and guest ales, plus other drinks like wines and liqueurs, which really hits the spot for anyone who appreciates a good pint.

  • The staff are friendly and the locals are a great bunch, making it easy to chat and feel included, even if you're new to the area.
  • Prices are reasonable, and it stays open late, which is perfect for a relaxed night out without breaking the bank.
Areas for Improvement
  • The interior feels a bit dated, like it's stuck in the 1960s, which might not appeal to everyone looking for a more modern spot.
  • There aren't any clear operating hours listed, so you might have to check in advance to avoid turning up when it's closed – that could be a bit frustrating.
  • As a hotel too, the accommodation is mentioned, but it's not clear how that all ties in, and it might not be the most up-to-date option for a stay.

Areas for Improvement
  • It seems to be very much a locals' haunt, which might make newcomers feel a bit out of place at first, though everyone we've heard from says it's welcoming enough.

The Ambrose Hotel is a cosy spot in Barrow-in-Furness with warm vibes and tasty grub, but it's got a few outdated quirks that might not suit everyone.
Pros and Cons
What's Great
  • The staff are incredibly friendly and welcoming, making you feel right at home from the moment you walk in.
  • Rooms are clean and comfortable, with some nice little touches like having a microwave and fridge on the landing for convenience.
  • They serve up some cracking food, especially the pizzas and burgers, which have been a hit with visitors.
  • It's got a lively atmosphere with friendly locals, and the location near Barrow rugby pitch adds a fun element for sports fans.
Areas for Improvement
  • The place feels a bit dated and could do with some freshening up to make it feel more modern.
  • Noise from the pub below can be a real nuisance, especially if you're trying to get a good night's sleep.
  • Kitchen hours are quite limited, so you might end up having to head elsewhere for a meal if you're there at the wrong time.
  • Breakfast doesn't kick off until 9 AM, which might be a drag if you're an early riser or have places to be.

The Derby Inn is a welcoming spot in Barrow with cracking live music, friendly vibes, and comfy rooms – a solid choice for a fun evening or a handy overnight stay.
Pros and Cons
What's Great
  • The live music scene is absolutely brilliant – it's got that real buzz with local bands playing every Friday and Saturday, making for a fantastic night out.
  • The staff are incredibly friendly and welcoming, always going the extra mile to make sure you have everything you need, whether you're stopping for a drink or staying over.
  • They've got a great selection of real ales and cocktails, all served in a stylish, modern bar that's perfect for relaxing with mates.
  • The hotel rooms are spot on – clean, spacious, and comfortable, with nice touches like fresh sheets and hot showers that make for a proper good stay.
  • It's dog-friendly and has options for private hire, so it's ideal for everything from a quiet catch-up to hosting a party or event.
Areas for Improvement
  • It can get a bit lively and noisy with the live music, which might not suit if you're after a peaceful pint on a busy weekend.
  • There aren't any specific operating hours listed, so it might be tricky to plan around if you're not sure when it's open.
  • Being right in the town centre, it could mean dealing with crowds or parking issues, especially on event nights.

The Owl & Pussycat is a welcoming, family-oriented pub in Barrow-in-Furness that's all about affordable eats and a fun vibe, though it might feel a touch chaotic on busier days.
Pros and Cons
What's Great
  • The food here is spot on – affordable, piping hot, and served with a smile, making it a real treat for a casual meal out.
  • It's brilliantly family-friendly with indoor play areas and plenty of space for little ones, plus facilities like WiFi and a car park that make visits hassle-free.
  • The service is generally cheerful and quick, with staff going the extra mile to ensure everyone has a good time, especially for families and groups.
  • They've got some cracking deals, like tucking into meals for just a tenner, and a solid selection of drinks that cater to all tastes.
  • Being in the heart of Barrow-in-Furness, it's conveniently placed near local attractions, perfect for rounding off a day out.
Areas for Improvement
  • It can get a bit lively and noisy, more like a nursery at times, so it's not the best spot if you're after a peaceful, quiet pint.
  • Service might slow down during busy periods, like queues for drinks when it's packed, which can be a tad frustrating.
  • There are occasional minor niggles, such as having to fetch your own cutlery, which feels a bit underwhelming for the effort.
  • Food quality can vary a little, so while it's generally good value, you might hit a off day now and then.

The Soccer Bar is a welcoming haven for Barrow AFC fans, buzzing with live sports, games, and events, though it occasionally stumbles with service inconsistencies.
Pros and Cons

  • Operating hours seem a bit inconsistent, particularly on Sundays, so it's worth double-checking before heading out.
  • Food options are limited, often relying on external catering, which might not always hit the mark if you're after a proper meal.
  • While it's welcoming for football supporters, it might feel a tad exclusive if you're not into the sport or a member.

  • Regulars rave about it as a top spot for a fun evening, with warm recommendations all round.
Areas for Improvement
  • Getting to the toilets can be a right faff when it's busy, making navigation a bit awkward.
  • That smoke machine might kick in without any heads-up, which could surprise you and put a damper on things.

Pros and Cons
What's Great
  • The staff are incredibly friendly and welcoming, making you feel right at home as soon as you walk in.
  • Drinks are affordably priced, with pints going for as little as £2 during specials – perfect for a casual night out without breaking the bank.
  • It's got a brilliant atmosphere with plenty of entertainment options like pool tables, darts, karaoke nights, and even a jukebox to keep things lively.
  • There are loads of seating areas both inside and outside, so it's easy to find a spot whether you're popping in for a quick drink or settling in for the evening.
  • They show premium sports on seven TVs, which is great if you're into watching the game with a pint in hand.
Areas for Improvement
  • There are restrictions on kids, as they have to leave by around 4-5pm, which might not suit families wanting a full evening out.
  • Food isn't really highlighted in the reviews, with one person saying they couldn't comment on it, so it might not be the best spot if you're after a proper meal.
  • It's a straightforward, no-frills boozer, which is charming in its own way but could feel a bit basic if you're looking for something more upscale.
  • No website listed means it's trickier to check out menus or events online before heading over.

The Knights Sport Bar in Barrow-in-Furness is a lively late-night haunt with friendly vibes and great sports action, but it does have its off moments with service and noise that might put some off.
Pros and Cons
What's Great
  • The staff can be absolutely brilliant, like Millie with her constant smile and friendly chat, or Ryan and Harvey who keep the bar buzzing with their great teamwork.
  • It's a top spot for sports fans with loads of screens to catch the footy or rugby, and they do a cracking job with events like karaoke that really get the crowd going.
  • The place has been nicely refurbished, always spotless and smelling fresh, which makes for a welcoming atmosphere after a long day.
  • They've got a solid selection of beverages, perfect for settling in for the evening with mates.
Areas for Improvement
  • Some staff members can come across as a bit rude or overly abrupt, like interrupting conversations or not handling situations well, which can spoil the fun.
  • The acoustics are a right pain – it's often tinny and noisy without any carpets or curtains to soften the sound, making it hard to have a proper chat.
  • The furniture feels a tad outdated, like those old working men's club tables that don't quite gel with the modern decor, which is a bit of a letdown.
  • There have been issues with things like not playing the commentary for big events, leading to disappointment on what should be exciting nights.

  • The rooms are absolutely spot-on – spacious, well-equipped, and come with all the little touches like fresh coffee, tea, and biscuits that make you feel right at home.
  • Staff are a real highlight; they're friendly, helpful, and go out of their way to make your visit smooth, whether it's sorting out your check-in or sharing a bit of local history.

  • The atmosphere is lively, especially on busy nights, and the food and brews are consistently good, making it a great place to unwind.
Areas for Improvement
  • There can be the odd snag with bar service, like reluctance to handle cash payments, which might frustrate you if you're not keen on cards.
  • It gets pretty packed on evenings, so you might find it a tad noisy or have to wait a bit for your order, which isn't ideal for a quiet pint.

  • It's spotlessly clean, which is a breath of fresh air in a pub setting.

  • Loads of daily deals on pints and meals, plus a cosy beer garden and free WiFi for added comfort.
Areas for Improvement
  • As a chain pub, it has that standard Greene King feel, so it might not offer the unique, local charm some folks crave.
  • It can get pretty busy, especially in the afternoons or during big events, which might make it a bit hectic at times.
  • Serving hours wrap up a tad early on some days, so if you're after a late-night bite, you might be out of luck.

What's Great
  • The staff, especially the bouncers like Richard, are incredibly helpful and kind, making you feel right at home.
  • Drinks are a real bargain – pints and cocktails are super cheap, with some as low as £2-4, which is brilliant in today's economy.
  • The outdoor area is lovely for a relaxed chat or a quick pint on a nice day.
  • It's got a welcoming atmosphere with friendly locals who are chatty and create a great vibe, plus it's been spruced up to feel modern and trendy while keeping that classic pub charm.
  • Plenty of screens for catching the latest sports, which is perfect if you're into that.
  • The toilets are kept clean, which is always a plus when you're out for the evening.
Areas for Improvement
  • It can feel a bit cliquey at times, like you're stepping into a group that's already sorted, which might put some folks off.
  • The place can be a tad grimy in spots, so it's not always the tidiest spot for a night out.
  • The range of beers and ales is a bit limited, so if you're after something specific, you might be disappointed.
  • Some drinks are pricier than you'd expect compared to the local average, so you'll need to pick your poisons wisely to keep costs down.

  • Drinks are reasonably priced, with pints going for as little as £2.20 during specials, which is a nice touch for keeping things affordable.
  • They've got solid safety measures in place, which is reassuring in today's climate, ensuring everyone can enjoy a pint without worries.
Areas for Improvement
  • It can be a bit quiet early in the evening, often not picking up until after midnight, so if you're after a lively spot straight away, you might need to time it right.
  • The operating hours look a tad confusing based on what's listed, which could lead to a few mix-ups when planning a visit.
  • Without an official website or claimed Google listing, it's not always easy to get the latest updates or details about the place.

76/100
The Theatre Bar in Barrow-in-Furness is a fun late-night haunt with a decent vibe for karaoke lovers, though it has its quirks like early quiet spells and the odd policy hiccup.
Pros and Cons
What's Great
  • The atmosphere really picks up late at night, making it a brilliant spot for a singalong and some good fun with friends.
  • The staff are incredibly helpful and attentive, always ready to make your visit enjoyable.
  • They've made some nice improvements, like adding a second bar, which helps keep things flowing smoothly even when it's busy.
  • Good security means you can relax and enjoy yourself without worrying about any nonsense kicking off.
Areas for Improvement
  • It can feel a bit dead if you turn up too early, so you might end up with the place to yourself when you're after a lively vibe.
  • Sometimes it gets overcrowded, which can make it uncomfortable, especially if you're trying to move around or chat.
  • There are reports of issues with the bouncers being a bit unfair or strict, which might put a damper on your night.
  • That minimum card payment of £10 feels a tad cheeky, particularly when the drinks aren't overly pricey to begin with.

Barrow In Furness Brewers Fayre is a welcoming pub with friendly vibes and solid value meals, though it has a few rough edges that keep it from being truly outstanding.
Pros and Cons
What's Great
  • The staff are incredibly friendly and helpful, always greeting you with a smile and a bit of humour, which really makes the visit feel welcoming.
  • The food is generally good quality with generous portions – think hearty carvery options and tasty new dishes like the Grilled Chicken Caesar Flatbread, all at a reasonable price.
  • It's spacious and easy to find, making it a convenient spot for a relaxed meal, whether you're popping in for lunch or a family Sunday roast.
  • They offer great value, especially with deals like mains from £5 during lunch hours and the carvery starting at just £11.99, which is perfect for a budget-friendly outing.
  • The atmosphere is tidy and inviting, with hot, delicious food that hits the spot, like that divine chocolate brownie that's simply to die for!
Areas for Improvement
  • The external areas could do with a bit of a tidy-up, as it might not give the best first impression when you arrive.
  • Some meals, particularly the breakfast, can be a tad bland and disappointing, which might leave you wanting a bit more flavour.
  • It's standard pub grub at the end of the day – nothing particularly groundbreaking, so if you're after something fancy, it might not quite hit the mark.
  • Occasionally, experiences can vary, with a few folks finding certain dishes underwhelming, like the kids' options that don't always please everyone.

Crows Nest is a cosy, traditional pub in Barrow-in-Furness with a warm welcome and budget-friendly drinks, but it has a few dated elements that keep it from being perfect.
Pros and Cons
What's Great
  • The friendly locals and welcoming atmosphere make you feel right at home, even if you're visiting from out of town.
  • It's got that classic old-school charm with plenty of history, which is a rare find these days.
  • Drinks are really affordable, and they've got some nice beers on offer, perfect for a casual pint.
  • They sell snacks, which is a nice touch for a quick bite without needing a full meal.
Areas for Improvement
  • The interior feels a bit worn and dull, which might not appeal if you're after something more modern.
  • The beer quality isn't always top-notch, so it might not satisfy those with a discerning palate.
  • Opening hours can be a bit unpredictable, which is a shame as it makes planning a visit tricky.
