| This is an awful pub. It took over 15 minutes to get served at lunchtime with only one till working, one credit card machine and three overworked staff trying to do food and drink orders, wait tables (one had to ask where table 9 was!), clear away empties and wash up. When asked for a "dry cider" the barstaff hadn't a clue what was meant. OK, it's a Beefeater which generally means low standards and poor service but the H&B is bad even by Beefeater's standards.

| For such a large building it seems strangly cramped inside. Beer poor service worse. Even with the two nearest pubs (the Tumbledown & the Alex.)temporarily closed, it doesn't seem to have picked up much new trade. The punters voting with their feet? Dan137 - 18 May 2008 01:13 |
| Less atmosphere than the Moon and the food can be terrible. Give it a miss. makemineapint - 19 Apr 2008 17:12 |
| The food here is sub-standard. Not sure why they are allowed to have a Cask Marque - I don't think there was any real ale when I was there. Probably they get the rail crowd and office drinkers from across the road & from the town centre. Now that the Tumbledown Dick is closed (temporarily) there aren't many alternatives in the area. But there aren't many above average pub alternatives in Farnborough anyway... gypsygrrl - 26 Mar 2008 16:14 |
| No real ale, no ambience in the bar area. Closes at 11 o'clock on a Saturday. Nuff said!!!! GazzaTheBeerMan - 21 Jan 2008 14:47 |
