The pub reopened in October 2024 as a community-run pub. Over a 100 local residents and supporters got together to secure the pub's future as a limited company.

The pub is situated in the lee of Crooksbury Hill (from which good views can be enjoyed), the Barley Mow has won many awards for its lovely garden. Formerly a Farnham United Breweries tied house (see the 1920 photo) the internal features then included a fine traditional public bar with table skittles. That bar is now a separate restaurant, featuring locally sourced dishes, but the rest of the spacious single bar is comfortably appointed for drinkers and diners.. Popular with walkers on the North Downs Way, but dogs must remain in the garden.

Historic Interest

Formerly a Farnham United Breweries house, the internal features included a fine traditional public bar with table skittles, and a pint good enough to have secured the pub a place in the first 10 Good Beer Guides, but no more. Closed from Jan 3rd to Feb 4th 1989 for the single bar treatment.
