    Celebrated my husband’s birthday at Barley and Boar. It was our first time and we loved it! The food and service was exceptional. Love that they have a delicious vegetarian option! So refreshing in north county. We will definitely return!

    It was quite cold in the restaurant. When we asked our server, she said it would warm up as the grill got used. It did not.

    Very enjoyable, the food was excellent. A little bit on the loud side, but did not disturb our meal. Would highly recommend it.

    This is definitely the "Crown Jewel" of the restaurant holdings of these locally owned establishments. After visiting numerous times, we confidently place it in our top 5 choices for a great meal. With a menu that updates monthly, we are always amazed at the creativity and attention to detail. Such fun sitting at the chef's counter and watching just how much attention to presentation is taken. Superb!

    Everything was amazing!! We absolutely love the ribs!!! I ordered the chicken and it was cooked to perfection. We love going here at least once a month. So glad we have something like this in Atascadero.

    I had an incredible experience at Barley and Boar in Atascadero! I started with the bread and butter, which may sound simple, but it’s anything but ordinary here. They serve freshly made, homemade bread daily, paired with local honey and a delicious twist that makes it a standout dish. Then, I had the ribs as an appetizer—wow, they were fantastic! Tender, flavorful, and perfectly cooked, they were the perfect prelude to the main event: the burger. Honestly, it was one of the best burgers I’ve ever had! The flavors were perfectly balanced, and the quality was top-notch. The atmosphere was relaxed, and the service was friendly and attentive. I had such a great time, and I highly recommend checking out Barley and Boar for yourself. Whether you’re a local or just passing through, this place is a must-visit!

    The fried green tomatoes and Bird were both delicious. Friendly, attentive service.
