What User likes about The Lock Stock Barrel:
Our first attempt to eat here was doomed to failure : no food available on Tuesdays . Such a shame ; our taxi driver had given it a good write up . However on the following night were able to enjoy some interesting bar snacks , and drinks , not unfortunately outside on the river bank . It wasn't the weather for that . However we did enjoy their ways of producing hummus , and avocado , and found the staff friendly and... View all feedback. What User doesn't like about The Lock Stock Barrel:
clean and modern bar however extremely over priced for £7 a pint! The bar staff were so great and friendly (joe was amazing and so great). Sadly I am unlikely to come here again as there are very similar pubs in Newbury at half the price for the same quality. View all feedback.

Great service from an attentive barman. The food was lovely, and the setting was fabulous.

Lock Stock and Barrel in Newbury offers a nice canal-side setting with lovely outdoor seating. While some diners praised the quality of the steak and the beautiful location, others complained about overpriced drinks and slow service. The limited children's menu and lack of dessert options were also disappointing to some. The pub's atmosphere was described as noisy by some, but others appreciated the dog-friendly policy. Overall, opinions on Lock Stock and Barrel are mixed, with some finding it a gem worth visiting and others feeling it falls short of expectations.
