| This pub is now fantastic. The garden is great and the play area very,very good. We shared fish and chips ( fish was cooked extremely well), the £5 cheese board-4/5 different types of cheese with biscuits and grapes and apple, lovely fresh home made onion rings and a small salad. Really enjoyed it and was very happy as it all came in at slightly over £20! And we were stuffed. Got to say the have really brought this place up to a very good level and is now probably our favourite local pub by quite a way. chapchap - 1 Sep 2011 21:59 |
| THIS PLACE IS FANTASTIC. We had the pleasure of Saturday lunch with friends and our young kids at Easter here. The staff and ambience is wonderful, the food was excellent and the landlady really went out of her way to make us feel home from home, the Easter Egg hunt was very, very generous and the skittle alley is a very warm, welcoming room that's an excellent space for a private hire. Add to all this is one of the best outside play areas for the kids. A quality, quality pub! scottdee - 8 Apr 2010 15:16 |
| This pub is quite a way out in the country. We dropped in for lunch, and drank London Pride and Shiraz by the glass, both very good. The beer was clear and seemed to have been cellared properly. This pub is operated by Fullers, so most of their products are available on hand pump. The staff are friendly and helpful, the loos clean, and the decor appealing. We ate scallops with a dipping sauce, rare steak and rabbit, apple pie and cheese. The cooking was superb, right up to London restaurant standards, the service efficient, and the price quite reasonable. I get the impression that this pub has changed hands recently, or at least changed management, and that standards have improved as a result. It's definitely worth a visit. astropolis - 3 Apr 2010 11:05 |
| If you're thinking about visiting, please don't use the June and August 2008 reviews as a reference. Something must have changed because the food I tried at the weekend was superb. A truely pleasurable experience. Yes, perhaps it may be a little pricey, but it's well worth it. Decent ales on tap - HSB, London Pride, Chiswick plus one other. My HSB was faultless. Staff are friendly too. triumph - 7 Jun 2009 12:05 |
| We have visited the Jolly Farmer a number of times over the last few months, the staff are friendly and courteous the food has been consistently good my only complaint would be that the ‘Jolly Burger’ at lunch is served on a small wooden plate which is very unpractical. We will be returning again in the near future. NikkiNoo - 22 Apr 2009 23:22 |
