Came in for a Friday night 8pm reservation and ordered a little of everything to share with my fiance. Might be my new favorite date night, a great wine and cocktail list. We ordered pork belly, shaved brussels, an unreal wedge salad, elevated taco-bell style crispy tacos and probably the most memorable dish of the evening, The Pasta. Our taste palettes were a little all over the place but our server gave such great recommendations we just had to try it all.

We arrived ~30min before the kitchen closed. No one was eating by the time our group arrived. We stumbled into this place, unfamiliar with the area, and let me tell you: this was the BEST food experience we've ever had!
We sat front-row seat from the kitchen + the cooks. It felt like I was a judge for a televised chef show. And the food(!), it was amazing. Pictures don't do this food justice; you must try it, enjoy the ambience, and chat with the cooks!
10/10 will come back again and sit in the same seats.
I cannot recommend this place enough. If you're by the area, make sure it's on your to-do/visit/eat list!

This place is fantastic!! My husband and I live in Atascadero and I have no idea why it took us this long to go try, but we are so glad we finally did! Excellent service and the food and cocktails were exceptional. It’s definitely one of our new favorites.

My wife and I recently enjoyed a terrific dining experience at Barley & Boar. We were given friendly and near perfect service by Emmarie, our server. We also sat at the counter with views into the kitchen where we were able to see the cooks perform their magic. Our appetizer, the lamb belly was beautifully braised and delicious. My entrée, the white sea bass was cooked perfectly, with the wild mushrooms and pommes puree a perfect compliment. This was the best dining experience in our week long visit to Atascadero. You folks rock!

Everytime I visit this spot, it's an awesome experience! Fabulous food, even better staff, and a laid-back, romantic atmosphere that feels fancy without the pressure.
I can't recommend this place highly enough. Also, a piece of advice: Try the dishes the way the chefs intended. They do things for a reason!

This place is excelling in all areas - a must visit!
We walked in here on a Friday night with no reservations and 4 people. They accommodated us at the bar and assured us we could order the full menu.
We were immediately greeted by the bartender and offered waters. She took our drink order, and even made a custom cherry limeade mocktail for a young person in our party.
We browsed the menu and placed our orders. Someone who appeared to be a manager (or in management) joined the two ladies behind the bar and made sure that everyone was taken care of. The manager were present but not invasive, attentive but not annoying - so it was perfect!
We started the evening with an amuse-bouche that was perfectly executed. My mocktail was fantastic.
I opted to have a salad and a starter since I wasn't super hungry. Both were beautifully plated and served at the exact temperature.
We were too full to order dessert, but we were offered chocolates from the house. 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽 THIS is how dining should be.
The vibe inside was cozy and cool, but not trying too hard. I just really enjoyed our meal, our service and the whole experience. So much so that we're planning another trip back to Atascadero, MAINLY just to dine here.
I will make reservations next time though!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Experienced traveler here, Barley and Boar has top tier elevated food and cocktails. The vibe is something akin to the big names of Napa, Los Olivos and Santa Barbara. I don’t eat a lot of meat and find the vegetarian options to be really well done. If you’re casual go for a seat at the bar, if you’re into something special go for a seat at the chef’s counter. 🙏

Really great. Really friendly staff. Quinn at the bar was very sweet and helped recommend dishes and drinks. Didn’t sit at the kitchen counter, but it looked like great place to dine as well.
