At The Barker, we pride ourselves on providing friendly and efficient service for all of our diners.
Our Chef’s philosophy is to start with the highest quality ingredients, not to overcomplicate them and present delicious dishes where the produce speaks for itself. The Barker delivers delicious pub classics alongside dishes that represent current trends in the global industry; catering to pub-grub lovers and foodies alike. Our meals are described simply and exactly on the menu, with vegetarian, vegan and gluten free dishes clearly labelled.
