The Garrison Concerts 2025

This was a brilliant pub for drinking, incorporating a modern feel with its vintage origins! The seating is comfortable especially sofas and the area next to the former disco bar is greatly constructed, counter is well-presented too. I had a well-priced pint of Blue Moon, appreciating the cleanliness of the area!

Great place for live music and entertainment in Barnsley. Loads of bands, djs and performances there on a regular basis. With a great bar and food, it's a recommended stop on a night out around Barnsley Town centre. Day or night.

Visited the disco room and the outside seating area so I cannot comment on the inside of the main part. However, there were plenty of bouncers that were polite, friendly and good at their job. No real issues with antisocial behaviour which is a worry sometimes with pubs. Music in the disco room was a playlist by the party hosts but the equipment used etc was very good and the venue itself was lovely. Service was great for drinks but cannot comment on any food as this was provided by the party hosts. Prices of drinks were about what you expect these days which is good and the option of fishbowl cocktails was great. Staff inside were lovely and friendly with great knowledge and bar skills. Overall, was a lovely experience.

One of the best venues I've ever visited for a gig night. Went to see the local band "Farhan" and was not disappointed. Seeing a tight cool band that graces the stage at "Download and Bloodstock" is a surprise to savor and especially as it was a "free gig". (Not sure how or why but whose complaining! make hay while the sun shines) and "thank you" The venue is very clean and well maintained (in fact, one of the cleanest I've seen). Also the bathrooms are the best designed and maintained I've ever used and that makes a big difference to the quality of your experience. Also the theme with it's classical architecture blended into modern neo 70's style decor with cast iron balustrades and stone floors gives it that chic ambience that plays perfect in terms of allure. Also of note was the Pizza kitchen that served us a delicious ten inch for about £8 right there in the auditorium. The staff at the bar were welcoming and friendly and the security staff appeared to be"present but not aloof" and on departing were friendly and reassuring and not intimidating. In all what can be said? In that coming from Nottingham this would be a high bar to compete against. Well done and I look forward to a return in the near future. JJ.

Great night out for a family birthday. We had the private room. It was all we needed. Food was good, the room was plenty big enough for us all. In all a good night.
