Cowick Barton

Pre booked for grandson's 21st birthday. Good service, good food. I took over a birthday cake and Louie brought to the table with candles lit, plates n napkins for everyone. Good drinks menu as well. I enjoyed a couple of very nice cocktails which was refreshing on a hot day. Can be mocktail if you don't want alcohol. It's nice to get the personal touch that you won't get from the big chains.

Phenomenal! Absolutely truly fantastic. I decided to treat my dad to Sunday lunch this Easter Sunday. I grew up in Cowick Lane and after moving away, I recently visited the Cowick Barton for a wake last year. I was so impressed by the quality and presentation of the buffet food, that I decided to book Easter lunch here. This ancient building is stunning and it has a real inviting and warming vibe. There were 4 of us today. Myself and my dad had the trio of meat (beef topside, belly pork and chicken). My daughter and husband had the beef. We could not fault a single thing. It was honestly the nicest roast we've ever had, and we've had a fair amount of good roasts, including our own - we're keen cooks. That Yorkshire pudding 🫨 Just amazing. All the meat was cooked to perfection and the veg was lovely. It was the best. Really flavoursome thick gravy too. The presentation was impressive. The only slight niggle, was about the variety of beers. Dad loves a bitter but there wasn't any - just an Old Speckled Hen, which he likes and ordered, but it was gluten free! It would be nice to see some more bitters and the proper Old Speckled Hen 😊 The drinks were served really quickly, and the service overall was top! The waiting staff were really attentive and really on the ball. Everyone was so friendly and welcoming and the whole experience was a joy. We'll definitely be revisiting - thank you for a wonderful lunch. Most places are very underwhelming these days, and this is the quality and experience you can only imagine having. So to actually find yourself experiencing what you long for, is magic! Massive, massive compliments to the chef, from us all 👨‍🍳

A wonderful building with so many original features, yet really comfortable too. Excellent food on Easter Sunday for lunch and not expensive. A really good range of dishes and all beautifully cooked. Service was so welcoming and friendly when booking for a large party at short notice, and couldn't be faulted on the day. Look forward to our next visit.

We recently visited the Cowick Barton and were very happy with our visit. We called last minute at Sunday lunchtime, just on the off chance there would be space, we were accommodated straight away. Plenty of parking. Lovely outdoor space to sit outside if you like. We were served straight away, by pleasant and friendly staff. Our food was delicious and I feel it is fairly priced for the quality and quantity. We were also happy to find out they are dog friendly, so we will obviously have to go back with our four legged family member, who loves a good pub!

This was a lovely day, made to feel very welcome,sat outside with drinks ,ordered, went in to lovely light dinning room.We had roast beef roast chicken breast,beautiful arranged huge Yorkshire, lovly dish off hot veg,good selection of puddings we had the Apple Calvados tart again nicely presented. Good coffee.Will defently return.Was a good price to.😀

What a lovely experience. We turned up on spec and we were warmly welcomed. The food was magnificent and tasted amazing and virtually melted in the mouth. The setting is stunning too. The only critique is that the portions are a little small, although beautifully presented so make sure you have a starter in this pub. Very dog friendly too. Thanks to all the staff for the good service.
