Now is the perfect time to take the reins at The Barley Mow!

We’re planning an exciting investment to elevate this already incredible pub. Subject to full approval and planning permission, our proposal includes adding a stylish external serving hatch and pizza bar to the garden. Perfect for meeting summer demand and creating a vibrant alfresco experience for guests.

Pub and location

The Barley Mow is a 400-year-old gem full of character, with cosy trade areas, low beams, and a quirky compact bar decorated with global banknotes and beer mats. There’s a small dining space for 16–20 covers and a comfortable seating area for groups.

Outside, the pub boasts a fantastic beer garden with stunning views across Penn Common, plus a covered area with a stretch tent—perfect for live music and events. Known for its homecooked food and diverse cask ales, The Barley Mow is a favourite for locals, walkers, golfers, and their dogs. Behind the scenes, you’ll have a small catering kitchen and spacious storage.

Located on the edge of Penn Common, next to Penn Golf Club with a shared access driveway, you’ll enjoy countryside charm with easy access to Walsall, Dudley, Stafford, Birmingham, and Telford. The area is affluent, family-friendly, and close to attractions like The Black Country Museum and Baggeridge Country Park.

Ideal operator

We’re looking for a local, experienced operator with energy, passion, and a proven track record in food operations. You’ll deliver a quality food offer that stands out in the area, lead from the front, and become the face of the business—building strong community ties and hosting memorable events.

You’ll be dynamic, creative, and adaptable, ready to flex your offer to suit the season, the weather, and local demand. With excellent hospitality skills and a perfectionist’s eye for detail, you’ll put guests and your team at the heart of everything you do. Strong social media presence and marketing know-how will be key to driving success.

Private accommodation

This exciting business opportunity provides two-bed private accommodation for the operators, including a private kitchen and a lounge.
