Restaurants in Barnsley

Estabulo Rodizio Bar & Grill - Barnsley

Really delicious food and fantastic service! The waiter organised a birthday brownie for my friend, accompanied by the chef playing guitar and singing happy birthday!! Really great evening, thank you all!

Favela Brazillian Grill

First time eating here, we were going to eat at estabulo's but they had changed the menu from the usual meats to a limited lunch menu. So decided to try favela and we were not disappointed!! The service was quick the staff were very friendly and the waiter could not do more for you. Lots of choice for the salad bar. It was a lovely experience for our little celebration!! We have definitely found a new favourite!!!

Old George

Unassuming from the outside, this coffee shop surprised me during my short visit to Barnsley. Their decor, menu and service are all five stars. I came here twice and had the nuts & granola toast and the Turkish eggs. They also do a really good latte! Highly recommended.

Food Paradise

Food Paradise in Barnsley is one of the best spots I’ve eaten at! The food is fresh, well-seasoned, and the portions are seriously generous. I highly recommend the knysza – perfectly baked bread, plenty of meat, and delicious extras. The staff is friendly and quick, and the place has a relaxed, welcoming vibe. Prices are fair for the quality you get. I’ll definitely be coming back! ???

The New Cross Keys - Darfield

We have visited the cross keys many times over the years. Dan is a fabulous host and chef he is always welcoming.the staff are also excellent. The food is amazing. This week 3 out of 4 of us had the Sea bass and it was amazing. Dan even came and asked our opinions on how he could tweek if it was necessary. It was games night which is always busy and very entertaining.
My friends and I highly recommend a visit or even more.
Well done Dan
By the way we didn’t realise it was your birthday till after, so happy belated birthday x

Salt & Pepper Polish Restaurant

Po wielu pozytywnych rekomendacjach od znajomych postanowiliśmy dzisiaj odwiedzić restaurację.Zamówiliśmy żurek i tradycyjne kotlety schabowe.Żurek był bardzo aromatyczny i świeży,biała kiełbasa bardzo smaczna,a dodatek jajka podkreślił smak. Kotlety były soczyste w środku,panierka chrupiąca,ziemniaki pyszne,kapusta zasmażana również.Dań nie trzeba było doprawiać,ponieważ kucharz ma smak i wszystko co robi przygotowuje z pasją.Obsługa bardzo miła i pozytywna,restauracja jest przytulna,czysta i z pewnością wrócimy do tego miejsca i będziemy je polecać.

Alams Lounge Indian Kashmiri Restaurant & Takeaway Barnsley

We came here for the first time as we live local and it was nothing but amazing. The service was incredible, the owner Maz really friendly and gave us some incredible recommendations. Highly recommend the Kalya, best curry we’ve ever had. Chilled environment and good beer, just how we like it. Will definitely be returning.

Lemon Tree

Lovely food, reasonably priced, great efficient and friendly service, will definitely come back. Had the hallumi kebab starter and lamd and chicken shish kebab, shared a chocolate brownie for pudding. All food was amazing

Grille Steakhouse

First experience here and probably won't be the last. The staff was very friendly and attentive continually asking if everything was okay. The food was nice both myself and my wife enjoyed it I had the Chicken Parmesan and my wife had the Spinach and Ricotta Tortellini followed by dessert.

Puccini's

Tried the mussels, ham and mushroom pizza, and the chicken pancake.
The pizza dough tasted different to the typical pizza dough from other restaurants, it was like the dough was fried before baking it. It tasted really good compared to many other pizza places that lack some depth of flavours. The chicken pancake tasted a lot like lasagna, really cheesy and flavoured.
The mussels were also very good, particularly the spicy garlicky tomato basil sauce. They tasted so creamy and well balanced as well. All the dishes have depth of flavour and were really enjoyable. Will like to try to dine there next time instead of takeaway.

The Talbot Inn & 1776 Restaurant

Visited yesterday, twice!! The lady behind the bar in the afternoon was an amazing host and made us feel very welcome, and gave outstanding service. We returned later on in the evening and the 2 young ladies behind the bar were lovely. We had also visited the wentworth- amazing service there too. What a choice of fabulous local pubs- thank you ☺️

Istanbul Kitchen and Bar

I have been here several times for food. They are consistent with good food quality both in flavour and quantity for a reasonable price. Very friendly staff. I love the Istanbul special for 2 people. We had ate most of the starter prior to taking the photo. Always end up with a takeout box as we can never finish it.

Urban Fresh Burgers & Fries - Barnsley

Really love to eat at Urban Burgers. The food was excellent, the staff was very friendly. We choose to come here over going to Meadowhall, even if Meadowhall was in our way! And we were not dissapointed :) Always a pleasure to come back to eat in! Best burgers! Highly recommend!

Brilliant service last night after ordering 20 pizzas for a party. Great communication and super helpful. The food arrived and all our guests raved about how delicious the pizzas were. Thank you so much for helping us out

The Garrison

We hired out the Beehive room for our engagement party, and it was fantastic value for money. Aaron was also super helpful and friendly right from booking the room to the actual party itself. We also used the house DJ who was really good. I would highly recommend for any events / functions! :)

Norman Inn

The service was brilliant and the food was good except the chicken and mushroom pie that had almost all sauce and hardly any chicken also a bit bland but it was all piping hot and my husband loved his steak. The discount codes are excellent and the 40% off food was amazing so we will be back

EVEREST HOYLAND

I have ordered from the Everest many times and can honestly say that their food and customer service is is great! My favourites are the kebabs ? and the madras is the best. I have had many madras from differnt places as this is my favourite curry but can say they do the best. With all the sides, perfection ?

PJ’s CAFE & BISTRO

Me and my boyfriend always come here for our breakfasts and it’s spot on every time. It comes quick , it’s hot and always perfect. Not one single fault in any of the times we have been !

China Lantern Chinese Restaurant and Takeaway

Had a meal in the restaurant last week for the first time and was surprised how much bigger it was than it looks. The lady that served us was friendly and welcoming and the food was delicious.

Pasha Turkish restaurant

We ate here on a Sunday evening and the whole experience was tremendous.
The restaurant has a good atmosphere and we liked the fact that the kitchen is on view. You can see the chef at work.
We ordered two main meals and dessert. Our food was delicious! The meat was lovely and tender. It had a lovely flavour and was steaming hot.
The baklava for dessert was one of the best I have ever tasted. Both desserts were beautifully presented.
The service was excellent and we will definitely be paying a return visit.
We also considered the prices to be very fair.

MezzALuna Ristorante

We went as a party of 6 for my daughters birthday. We booked for 3.30pm on a Sunday to fit in with children and so, with it being the full in service, it was maybe a bit slower than usual. But the food did not disappoint, it was really good and would definitely go back.

Bombay Rasoi

Visited recently on a Monday night .A party of three were able to enjoy fine tasting food , good service and large portions we all found it a real treat and great finish to a busy day

Dearne Valley Farm - Dining & Carvery

Lovely carvery as usual, all the staff were welcoming and pleasant, especially Claire who went above and beyond to be helpful. I would definitely recommend eating here.

1 momento

Great Italian restaurant! As an Italian, I can say the pizza was truly delicious and the staff were extremely kind. It’s rare to find such a good pizza outside of Italy, so I was really impressed. The Moretti beer was also a nice surprise. I will definitely come back!

absolutely and we will

The Bull's Head

Fantastic atmosphere, love the bingo on Wednesdays, always fun on a thirsty Thursday too, weekends r great, lovely polite staff and always clean and spotless, recommend ?

McDonald's

Food is usually cooked well here and staff polite. But it is awkwardly placed and the access roads are terrible if not dangerous and confusing, having to enter via a garage exit point. parking is always a pain and if you use the drive thru, hope that people with half a brain cell dont park in it. Otherwise the drive thru becomes lodged and grinds to a halt. The cooking machines non stop beeping for 25 minutes drove me nuts as a visitor, imagine working listening to it.

McDonald's

​⭐ Great Experience and Quick Service!
​I stopped by the [Location/Street Name] McDonald's recently, and it was exactly the consistent experience I was looking for.
​? Fresh Food: My meal was hot, fresh, and prepared perfectly. The fries were nice and crispy, just how I like them!
​⚡ Super Efficient: Even though it was busy, the staff moved through the orders incredibly fast. I didn't have to wait long at all.
​? Clean Environment: The dining area was tidy, well-maintained, and the tables were cleaned promptly after customers left.
​? Friendly Staff: The team at the counter was polite and efficient, ensuring my order was correct and complete.
​? Easy Ordering: The self-service kiosks worked perfectly, making the whole process quick and hassle-free.
​A reliable spot for a quick bite. I’ll definitely be stopping by again next time I'm in the area! ?✨

McDonald's

i came in through drive through tonight and i was greeted by a ruby hyde she was very helpful with my needs being a vegan and was so lovely will definitely be my go to maccies

Heaven & Ale

Fabulous hidden gem, just outside of the town centre.
There is a vast selection of craft ales available, so ideal for the real ale drinker, and the most reasonably priced.
Really pleasant atmosphere, great staff and quirky decor. 100% a firm favourite.

Tap & Brew

Great little bar, staff are all nice talkative friendly folks, and some great beers on tap.

There's a couple guitars on the wall for anyone who can play to entertain others, though could do with a restring.

Miners Rest

We only moved on Kensington Rd last August. With all my hospital visits, my partner would wait for me in here, I have to say it is such a friendly pub, I don't feel out of place at all, I always hear laughter, which in my case makes it a lovley little place to go. Loved it in here.

Rushy's cafe

1st time ordering really friendly over the phone to delivering to us food was still hot its like eating home comfort in your work place defo will be ordering again :)

The Ash Inn

Our second visit since the new owners took over. The staff are welcoming and friendly and so is the atmosphere. The real ales are well kept and delicious ??. So if you are in the Barnsley area and want a nice pint in a relaxed welcoming atmosphere then give the Ash a try.
P.S.
The beer garden in also huge and welll kept.

A big thank you to Blesson for the excellent delivery service! He was friendly, courteous, and delivered my Domino’s order quickly. The food arrived fresh and in perfect condition. Really appreciate the great service!

Luigi's

Luigi’s has been up and running for as long I can remember great food great prices , brilliant service ,super efficient and been serving food for my family for minimum 15+ years.

De Niro's Pizza

If i could give zero stars for sevice i would. Spent £46 here tonight and they couldn't even be bothered to put salad or sauce on kebabs. £3.50 for the smallest tub of chips I've ever seen, they truly are the tightest takeaway in the whole of South Yorkshire maybe the North of England.The beef Steak kebabs are good, pizza is ok but surely when you spend over £50 on food a free bottle of pop should be chucked in for goodwill. This takeaway is unbelievably tight. Ordered a pizza meal deal that came with a garlic bread, they're that hard up they didn't bother to put any cheese on the garlic bread haha

Joy Hong

Their spare ribs in OK sauce have become my new addiction, cannot get enough of them. Everything I order is aways delicious and fairly priced for the perfect quality.

China Moon Takeaway (CM) Barnsley

We ordered out after getting back late from a day trip. The receptionist was brilliant, obviously knew the menu by heart. She told me the delivery time was around 50mins, it arrived well before then. The food was absolutely piping hot, well packaged and delicious. We've used China Moon for years and never had any complaints, but last night was particularly brilliant, so much so I felt compelled to write a review!

The Boatmans Rest

All I can add to the Google reviews is they’re accurate, and in no way exaggerate customers positive comments. As a regular visitor to eat at the Boatman’s Rest I can only repeat that the food, service, ale and staff are exceptional. Went yesterday (12/2) and they managed to find us a table at very short notice (always better to book in advance it’s that popular) and treat like royalty. Needless to say we’ll be back again soon.

The Secret Italian

Another visit to The Secret Italian today for the launch of their Wednesday lunchtime.
The service was second to none, food exemplary, atmosphere was great. Absolutely no criticism at all. Can't wait to visit again.

Keelings

First time to Keelings, read the reviews, before going.All food cooked fresh to order ? friendly staff, hot tasty haddock and chips when l got home, massive portion was £11,amazing.
I would recommend Keelings,the owners have a regular friendly customer base always a good sign. I will definitely go back when l fancy a fish and chip dinner.

The Mill of The Black Monks

This was our fiirst time visiting The Mill of The Black Monks & it definatley won't be our last!

Bistro @ the Pocket

First time we've been. it's a great place. especially if you like steak. staff are friendly and attentive. could do with a decent guest ale but otherwise I was impressed and we'll go again.

Rodder's Bar & Cafe

Fabulous place to stop and have a drink, great service from friendly hosts with amazing views of the local countryside, Best tap oyle view in barnsley by a country mile.!

The Old Bakery

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
The Old Bakery Pub is an absolute gem. Proper atmosphere, friendly faces, and a pint that hits just right. Their Hawkstone beer comes out ice cold, crisp, and dangerously easy to sink. Perfect spot for a chilled pint that tastes exactly how beer should. ?

Darfield Road Fisheries

We asked Steve if we could place an order for 12 of our family at 5.30pm Thursday. Steve and his staff did a fantastic job. We collected our order 30 mins later everything we ordered was perfect. All the food was delicious as usual. Thank you once again you are a star

Tunstall cross fisheries

Beautiful little fish and chip shop service excellent staff are great reasonably priced and most of all the fish and chips are really tasty just wished they opened more days in the week I would highly recommend paying them a visit.

The Friery

Made a diversion on the way back to try.
Exceptional, crisp, thin batter, moist massive peice of cad and the best chips I have had.

George and Dragon

Popped in on my own for a quiet pint after a long walk. Wasn’t sure if I’d feel awkward being solo, but absolutely no need. Staff super friendly.
Sat with my drink in the sunshine, watched the world go by, and genuinely felt comfortable, no rush, no pressure. Proper good energy. Would happily come back solo.”

Pour House 22

Definitely a 10/10 form all out party . A huge Thank-you, cant wait to come again

Darton Coffee House

Quiet when visited but staff very welcoming and cheery, didnt feel at all uncomfortable being my first visit and on my own Ideal for a snack and a coffee. The coffee was tip top and a good price, takeaway too by looks.
Dog friendly too so ideal if out walking the dog n fancy a cuppa.

Maggie's

First time I've been. Definitely be back. Searched for somewhere that does a proper sausage and not those cheap minging ones. Was very happy. £8.10 for a full English and a drink. Bob on. Very busy and even had reserved tables so I was lucky to get a seat. Better busy than dead though.

The George Hotel

A nice little local, good drink selection, large free car park just across from the pub, reasonably priced drinks, with a large beer garden at the back. Visiting on a Friday when it was karaoke evening.

Very good value for meals, hot and tasty, friendly staff, well kept beer, all at a very reasonable price. We have been several times 12 midday to 3pm. Food orders til ten to two ??

Prince of Wales Wombell

Popped in for a well deserved 1/2, as a stranger from out of town (Askern). Great atmosphere, lovely clientèle, and made to feel really welcome. Well worth a visit.

East Dene Working Men's Club

Very welcoming towards away fans. We visited with Peterborough and enjoyed a few cheap pints of Amstel, pool at a bargain price of 40p and some darts. Went back after the game and the ladies darts team shared their food with us after their match. Proper Yorkshire community spirit on show here with lots of conversation to be had with the locals. Highly recommended!

The Old No 7

Saturday 18th April 2026
This pub is a 1 floored wooden floored pub
This is a really good real ales pub with six hanpumps on today
Great staff and easy listening background music.
This real ale pub is a essential visit when drinking real ales in Barnsley

King Street Fisheries

This place is amazing. Always just had the chips but my partner and me just had the house special kebab. Just the one would have fed us both. The chicken was tender and everything was so fresh. I can't recommend these enough.

The fish is cooked to perfection and the chips are always a winner.
Kids meals are more than enough.
No scrimping on portions in this chippy.
Pleasant staff and parking not a problem.
From Bev and Alfie (age 9)

Normally one of our last pubs to visit on day out. Always busy great atmosphere. Never too long to wait for the Guinness beers friendly bar staff. Sometimes live band on. Seems a popular bar.

Thanks for being so friendly.
2-0 to the mighty Imps too!

JJ's Cafe

Dont leave many reviews but this morning me and my colleague ordered a large BEST each and it was absolutely amazing!!! Best sandwich i have ever had.....unbelievable

Joshua's Dining Lounge

Cosy, intimate and slightly off the beaten track whilst still being in the town centre. This is a perfect spot for lunch, fine homemade fare, teas and coffees or a glass of wine. It is also a fabulous venue for special occasions, birthdays, small wedding receptions, mothers and fathers days etc. Give them a call and get booked in, you won't regret it! 07873 333789
