Bewertungen von The Barking Dog

I went there this morning for breakfast with a friend and it was absolutely lovely. Customer Service is great the place is clean, calm quiet. Such a lovely atmosphere. Very well maintained and even the toilets were presentable,hygienic and clean. We ordered Two large English breakfasts! Shame they did not come with hot drinks however the prices were reasonable. The hot drinks we ordered were Refillable so that was a nice surprise. Only issue is it’s not an all day breakfast as it finished about 11am However there is an extensive Menu, from Vegetarian to Vegan so…you are spoilt for choice. The place is very organised and discreet. CANT FAULT IT! I would highly recommend it and will definitely be back! Thank you The Barking Dog-Wetherspoons

Located in Barking, the pub isn't in the best area but that doesn't take away the shine from the place, it has a lovely atmosphere and staff are incredibly friendly. Like all spoons, food and drinks are cheap and it seems you're more than welcome to smoke outside so long as you remain away from the front doors. An added bonus is that it is right next to the station, so it's very helpful if you've just finished work in the city and want to get of the train for a quick pint or meal. There are often tables free during the week, however, on Fridays and Saturdays you will find it difficult to find a table, on Saturdays I'd recommend getting there around noon as it tends to get busy around 1pm-2pm.

The Barking Dog is the best Pub in Barking Myself and two friends recently stayed in Barking for a few nights, and found the Barking Dog pub to be the best place for us to drink and eat at a reasonable price. My friends hadn't been to England before and were given a three night package of their flights and hotel from their wives. The weekend coincided with their favourite English Premier League football team playing at home too. I knew the prices of beer in London would be unnecessarily excessively expensive, so looked for a Wetherspoons pub before coming to Barking. The Barking Dog is Ideally situated being next to the railway station. We made the Barking Dog our home pub. With English beer priced from as little as £1.69 for Ruddles Best Bitter, and several other real ales all priced £2.10, we were able to drink very well every evening. The best thing was the beer with a meal offer, especially the selection of beers available, including Brew Dog Punk IPA and wide choice of other lagers such as Hop House 13, Stella Artois, etc., and all the real ales. I know from where I live, other pub groups, such as Greene King, only offer basic beers with meals and never the more premium range. The first evening we stayed in Barking and visited the Wetherspoons Barking Dog was a Friday evening, and we all had the Fish and Chips meal offer with a beer for £7.70 each. After our meal, my friends especially enjoyed trying the range of real ales, even though they only drink Pilsner lager in their home country, and are fortunate to have the best in my opinion, Klášter, as their local beer. As we sat planning our weekend ahead, I saw the group of men next to us were sharing a big plate of fried chicken wings with two different dips. One was a hot spicy tomato based dip, while the other was creamy Blue cheese. When I enquired to buy this on the Saturday evening for us three to share, I was told if I ordered two portions @ £4.90 each (10 Spicy Chicken wings per portion), a third portion was only £1 more. So, we had 30 pieces for £11. These hot spicy chicken wings with beer and the two dips were absolutely delicious and so filling that we didn't order any other food that night. On the Sunday evening, my friends wanted to try the All Day Brunch because the budget hotel we were staying in only offered a cold Continental style breakfast. When my friends received their meals, with their favourite choice of beers, all for only £7.70, they ate without speaking at all, as they savioured every mouthful. My friends did try several other pubs in Barking during their three night stay but they told me they didn't like any of them anywhere near as much as the Wetherspoons Barking Dog. Having been to several Wetherspoons pubs, around the UK over the past 20 years, including Edinburgh, Sheffield, Manchester, Luton and London, I must say I found the Barking Dog a much better experience than most of their pubs. For one thing, the toilets are on the same floor as the bar and not a short expedition hike or climb away, as is usually the case. I also liked the fact the prices, even for a London suburb, were very low, even cheaper than pubs in my home town, with such a wide selection to accompany meals. The food was delicious too. If the Barking Dog is a typical example of a Wetherspoons pub these days, then everything has vastly improved over the last couple of years, and I shall have to try the one in my home town, the Gary Cooper, which I haven't stepped inside of since 2017.

Popped into the Millers Well and it's a nice locals pub. Fixtures and fittings are typical Wetherspoons, but the atmosphere and garden is good for groups. Bar and food service is relatively quick, and it's a nice stop off point for a fee beers on the way. Toilets are based upstairs, but garden st back is quite large, so nice in the summer. Staff are quick and attentive as the bar is not the biggest so service is good. Good all round experience.
