Old No 7
A short 8 minute walk from Barnsley Station to Old No 7 located at Market Hill, Barnsley S70 2PX – Google Maps
Old No 7 boasts a rich history dating back to the 19th century. Originally known as the Lord Nelson Vaults, it was acquired in 1878 by Henry Carter, a wine and spirit merchant. Under the Carter family’s ownership, it became known as Carter’s No. 7 and remained in the family until 1936. In recent years, the pub has served as the brewery tap for Acorn Brewery and has been recognised for its real ale offerings. More recently the pub has been taken over and reopened on 16th May 2025 with the focus still being on quality real ales.
Inside it’s warm and welcoming with a mix of old-school charm and modern touches. You’ve got exposed brick walls, wooden beams, and a relaxed, rustic feel throughout. There’s plenty of seating, a choice of booths, high tables, and quiet corners—so it works for groups or just a chilled visit. The lighting’s low and warming, and the feel is friendly without feeling too busy. It’s the kind of place where you can settle in and chat for hours, with a steady mix of locals and new faces.
