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.
