Jeremy Clarkson’s Farmer’s Dog Pub Faces Customer Backlash Over Food, Pricing and Service

Reactions have split over pricing paired with slow service at the Cotswolds pub, which relies exclusively on British-grown ingredients.

Overview

  • Since its August 2024 opening and May feature on Amazon Prime’s Clarkson’s Farm, the pub has drawn festival-style crowds and overflow parking in Oxfordshire.
  • Guests praise the lively beer garden and some standout dishes but recent feedback cites dry roasts, lukewarm puddings and delayed orders despite a 4.7-star Google score.
  • Big Brother star Henry Southan’s June TikTok review branded the £26 beef and pork roast “really dry” and criticised the distant overflow car park trek.
  • Staff walkouts during last summer’s frenetic opening—blamed on operational “problems”—have since subsided as the venue stabilises its service team.
  • Clarkson defends steep menu prices by sourcing every ingredient from British farms, a policy he says may lose £10 per customer to support local producers.
