| Good pub. James the manager is good and makes you feel welcome, as do other staff. Food is decent value, ambience is pretty good. I have been there countless times and would have no hesitation in going for a meal. I agree that it may have lost some of its charm over the years but in terms of value for money, it's worth a visit. lexsim - 15 May 2011 23:24 |
| Had lunch in here with a couple of friends yesterday. The food was good. I was driving so not drinking but I'm told the beer was fine. The service was very polite and friendly but a bit slow. The pub was comfortable and clean, except for the stinking toilets which I'm afraid marks it down quite a bit. StudioM - 22 Mar 2011 13:13 |
| The Jolly Farmers is an expansive pub situated in the valley which houses Salmon's Brook on the border of Enfield and Oakwood, in an area known locally as Frog's Bottom, a fact that used to be shown by a name plaque on the frame of the pub sign. I used to live opposite the Farmers a few moons back and although not anything special in the way of décor or beer choice (being a Mcmullens tied house) , Ialways found it a comfortable and functional pub which did the basic things right and the traditional pub grub was usually OK. Had the opportunity to pop in again the other night on route to The Ridgeway. It’s been redecorated since the last time I was in and although the décor is more modern and cleaner than the old lived-in flock wallpaper, I actually didn’t think it was such as bland a job as done in The Robin Hood at Botany Bay. Perhaps that’s because there were quite a few in on the Friday night and as there are still the separate dining and drinking areas, it still retains a bit of the traditional pub atmosphere. Standard McMullen fair and the AK was perfectly fine. And as previously stated by other reviewers, there are bench tables outside and this pub does make an effort with the floral displays in summer.

| A great looking building from the outside as most McMullen pubs of this era..Its a huge pub, though sadly..the new interior is somewhat generic to this brewery and looks more like a huge Starbucks than a cozy pub that it once was! Dining areas again a bit brash and feels like a larger version of the newly refurbished Robin Hood at Botany Bay .... maybe I just like a pub to be just that, a pub! pubmanstu - 10 Apr 2009 21:52 |
| Not bad at all, I'm not a frequent visitor to it but have found it very pleasant every time I've been there. Prices aren't too bad, drinks are good and environment is lovely in a modern but tasteful way. Always seem to end up in here on Christmas Eve for no good reason that I can fathom, but doubtless I'll be back again this year, so it's obviously doing something right. Nice for an occasional evening out when you are bored with your local, but not the kind of place that you'd want to frequent regularly. Mr.Monkfish - 4 Jul 2005 14:02 |
