Fair average food offer for a gastropub but the service was excellent

Big pub with views of gold hill common. excellent eating with a separate restaurant area. service very good.

It was very welcome. excellent food and excellent service. highly recommended.

Lovely meal for 4 of us with great service. Definitely recommend.

A mixed review. The food was generally good and the staff was cool, but the evening was a bit of a disaster.The fire alarm went off just after our first course....

The Jolly Farmer offers a charming country pub experience, celebrated for its generally exceptional food and friendly staff. Diners rave about the delicious Sunday roasts, particularly the impressive Yorkshire puddings, and appreciate the attentive service. However, recent visits have revealed notable inconsistencies. Issues like overcooked dishes, disappointing roasts, and overcrowded seating have marred some experiences. While the restaurant showcases both delightful flavors and commendable hospitality, diners advise caution during peak times, as service can suffer. Overall, it’s a place with potential, worth a visit—just with the awareness of its recent hiccups.
