The Bull and Barrel - Barrie, Ontario

Cute little pub here in Barrie. I got the roast beef stuffed yorkie (pictured below) and a cold glass of Pinot Grigio that was a fantastic pairing. I love the atmosphere of the old Irish pubs and the gravy they used! I’ll be thinking about this meal for many weeks ... lol Read more

This pub has been a local favourite for many years. Good food, great selection of beverages and comfortable atmosphere. Mobility impaired accessible. Typically an older crowd here. Reservations are recommended on Friday and Saturday evenings.

Nice Pub in the most unlikely place near an industrial type area. The food was excellent I highly recommend the stir fry and the mushroom soup. Really can't go wrong with any order. Lots of space and welcoming staff.

Everything was fine until one guy at the bar started singing and whistling all by himself, then started yelling a conversation across the room. Restaurant has a regular group of customers apparently. A nice English style pub with a variety of food to sit everyone's liking.

Great atmosphere, great friendly staff and very fast service especially during the holiday season. Had the pigs in a blanket appetizer which I forgot to take a photo of. Was a bit different and I think hot sauce would have been better served with it rather than HP sauce. ... My main meal was the Red Wine Braised Short Rib with Pomegranate. This was really good and served with mashed potatoes and winter vegetables. Very very filling and the taste was wow!! For dessert had the Gingerbread Sticky Toffee Pudding. It was drizzled with Brandy sauce and had whip cream and a scoop of candy cane ice cream. It was a but heavy but that could because of the meal I just ate. The candy cane ice cream was really good. Overall a great experience with 4 out of 5 stars for the food. Reasonably priced I might add! Read more
