The team at John Barleycorn’s were incredibly accommodating for our group, who needed a venue to watch our team’s Ice hockey game live-streamed on YouTube. Vanessa was absolutely lovely, she helped with the booking and made sure everything ran seamlessly. We will definitely be coming back! The food and drinks were also fantastic.
