Blimey Mr Wenger! You're a hard task master. 4 real ales on at once, puts a pub towards the top of my estimation. I completely agree with you about the atmosphere in the bar though; very sedate. This does have the affect of keeping the pub free for a somewhat more mature crowd.

on a recent visit to this estabishment I found it to be abit to quiet for my liking, but the chiltern beer that was on offer was ok, would be nice if they had more than just 4 real ales on offer at any one time.

I went in here one lunchtime recently.

Nice old building (of course).

Very nice pint of Chiltern Ale at reasonable price.

Bar staff friendly and efficient - even asked if I wanted a straight glass or handle.

I didn't eat but food looked intersting, don't know about prices.

Yes I will be going again when in Aylesbury, recommended.

A nice tidy bar offering 3 Chiltern and 1 guest beer.

Polite and efficient staff and reasonable prices.

Well worth finding.

Picture the scene if you will; father and 9 year old daughter in Aylesbury town centre having just dropped "the Teenagers" bowling...

9 yr old: Dad can I get a drink?
Dad: I know, lets slip into the Farmers Bar and get a lemonade and a pint of terrific Chiltern Brewery beer.

Two minutes later...

Dad: Can I have a lemonade and a pint of...
Spotty, yet polite Bar Boy: I'm terribly sorry sir, but we don't allow under 18's in the bar.
Dad: Well I'm just buying the drinks and then we'll go outside.
SYPBB: I'm sorry sir we can't allow the child in the bar.
Dad: Where do you suggest I put her while I buy the drinks?
SYPBB: Outside?
Dad: Come on we're going.

All conducted in the best of manners and politeness, but a stupid, stupid rule from the only town centre pub worth visiting.

I suppose Chiltern Brewery want to create a quieter atmosphere for the mature drinker, but it's hardly going to hurt taking a single child into the pub for 30 seconds while you get drinks.

Oh yes and by the way Farmers Bar, if you have such daft rules it would be useful to put signs up outside to prevent the inevitable confrontation at the bar.
