The Cock Inn, Barnsley

The Cock Inn is situated in the village of Birdwell and has the feel of a rural hostelry, both inside and out, until you hear the roar of the adjacent M1 motorway. We also sat in the main room to the right of the entrance. The barmaid was friendly, but as with the last review 8 years ago, the ale range was not too inspiring. Tetley's Cask is the regular ale. The 2 guest beers were Bradfield Farmer's Blonde & Timothy Taylor Landlord. Real cider is no longer dispensed. A few other elderly locals were also present in the main room, with the pub gearing up for the England football match later that evening. Nice pub, but could be better.
