Stag's Head Barnes — Restaurant in London

This is a family run pub, always a friendly welcome, simple menu (pizza to share). Also a good selection of beers and wines. Children, dogs and cyclist welcomed. Live music on a regular basis, comfortable, clean and colourful. Ask to try a baby Guinness!

Just wanted to point out that Veg Nerd who gave a negative review was a review from when the pub was called halfway house, it was run down, but thankfully the new owners have changed its name to the stags head and have invested time and money into making it feel homely.

The review is in-accurate and does not relate to the current business. The important thing is go and visit for yourself especially when there is free live music. I understand Google won't remove the review even though it was a review from a previous business and does not relate to the current owners and the stag.

I love this place, but noticed that Google has replaced the inadequate review of the Veg Nerd. Listen l am a constant reviewier of Google, the review of Veg Nerd is inaccurate, that use to be a the half way house. They he/she does not represent the review of current owner. I am a local but well known, l would never put my name to support a local bar , if it was like the half way house. The stags head is a family run pub, don't listen to me go and check it out, see for yourself. Your voice and experience overidrs mine. Go and say hi, it's not about scoring points, we need people to bring commuty where it belongs. This place does this.. NED VEG Has not done a review for two years. Look them up. My parting Comment.. Check for yourself.. Forget me and every one else, the best experience,...

Under new management this year and you can tell the new owners really care about the pub and the customers. A good selection of drinks for a small pub and good value, especially during one of the (currently daily) specials on the drinks and food, served by friendly owners. Decorated nicely for Christmas on our last visit. This is our most local 'local' and we haven't been going so much over the last few years - it had become a bit tired and nearly closed a couple of times - and although it hasn't got the fancy views or large beer gardens of some of the pubs down towards the river, it's definitely worth popping in if you're passing - or why not just make it your destination? We look forward to visiting more in the coming months and seeing...

It was a mixed bag coming here on the off chance when in the area. Great to see a nice old school pub open and not a bad selection of beers on tap, including Pride and Cruzcampo (a Sevilla classic doing the rounds all over town these days). Prices were a bit steep to justify a second round given the surroundings though. Just mostly boomers who didn’t seem to like the cut of the jib of anyone unfamiliar.

The service wasn’t the most friendly and just a bit standoffish. We may have been tempted by the food if menus were forthcoming or visible, but it didn’t really have the feel of a place that you’d eat.

There was a band playing too which weren’t too bad. However, all in all it was all quite average. Not one to go out of...
