Overview

• The Farmer’s Dog pub opened in August 2024 in Asthall, Oxfordshire, after Clarkson purchased and renovated the former Windmill.
• Clarkson built the menu around locally sourced British produce, stocking his own Hawkstone lager and meat from neighbouring farms.
• Patrons have given mixed feedback, praising the food and service but questioning costs such as a £24 steak pie with mash and vegetables.
• In early June, Clarkson responded to online criticism by banning customers who complained about menu prices on social media.
• Series four of Clarkson’s Farm, with its finale released on June 6, documented the pub’s last-minute opening challenges and local community impact.
