Getting in a little late to go to London, we turned our attention to something close to the Gatwick airport. After finally sorting our Uber rides, we were off to The Farmhouse. First impressions were of a traditional British pub experience, which was a good start. Our clumsiness of grabbing a table and figuring out whether we needed to go to the bar to order or wait to be served, surely gave us away as "not locals." Our server was friendly and provided us with our menus and took our drinks order. The one shortfall was that the menu had a number of items not available and with an assist from a customer, two of us needed a rethink on their meal. In all, it was 4 Fish & Chips, One Farmhouse Burger, and a Battered Halloumi burger, plus an order of calamari, and 4 tomato and garlic soups. There were zero plates taken off the table that were not empty! I had the Halloumi burger, which had a great, crispy batter topped with some guacamole mayo with a red sauce on the side. Really good. Then we doubled down and hit the dessert menu! Two warm chocolate brownies with salted caramel ice cream and four plum tarts. We asked for some custard on the side because who doesn't like custard?! Save for the debate about whether it was more a pie than a tart, another set of empty plates were the only evidence left. Would definitely recommend The Farmhouse!

The interior of the pub is fresh and modern, although it has been refurbished in the last couple of years and it seems to be more like a chain pub now, I was still impressed last time I ate there, we have a shared Meze platter and in the sunshine it was just delicious. The menu is varied but a little on the expensive side. Staff were friendly, prices for drinks about average. Toilets are clean and modern.

We booked for Sunday lunch with some friends. A pub that was half way between us. We walked in to a very friendly atmosphere. We noticed that the restaurant was ready laid and apart from the bar. Immediately we sat down drinks order was taken and, what seemed immediately, drinks arrived. Great service, so far. We all ordered their Sunday roast. Choice of four or five meats. The plates of food arrived, the HOT plates. Now that was a nice change. Normally it is on cold plates. Kept the food hot throughout the eating. The plates were overflowing with delicious meats, numerous vegetables, real roast potatoes and a large Yorkshire pud. So much that a few of us never did finish it all. Coffee was delicious, well after that meal we couldn't face a dessert. Service was brilliant and friendly, yet professional. Would I go back again. A definite YES.

The beer is always good and shows that they take care and pride in the maintenance of the beer lines. Food is typical pub food, it's not a gastro pub and doesn't pretend to be. Portions sizes are reasonable as are the prices, food is always served hot and prompt. The real jewel in the crown though is the beer garden, a raised patio gives way to a nice lawned play area perfect for kids and all surrounded by trees that border the fields it sits within. Dogs are allowed but obviously kept on leads. Slightly off the beaten track but worth finding, especially on a hot summers day.
