Not so much of a pub, more of a Macdonlds with a license, fast food, fast customer turn over. When food has finished pub empties, not a pub for drinking in ArrysDad - 17 Aug 2013 21:26 |
Unlike most of the pubs in the vicinity, the Manor Farm is a genuine old farmhouse which has been extended and converted into a rather nice pub restaurant. Situated close to the Orbital shopping park, the Manor Farm is a welcome oasis away from the temples of mamon and consumerism on the other side of the road. I sometimes sit quietly here reading the paper while the missus abuses her credit facilities over the road. The MF is a fairly large pub with a main bar area, dining area and some odd little rooms you can lurk in if you want a bit more privacy or (God knows why) want to play a fruit machine. There is a large back garden which is lovely in the summer and als0 a good-sized outside seating area at the front. The pub is just off the main road and has an unnecessarly vast car park. There are normally about 4 real ales available on the pull, and they have always been in good form on my visits. I generally stick to the Wychwood Hobgoblin which is tip-top. The bar service is friendly and efficient and they always seem to have enough staff on to cover when they have an 'event' of any sort. The food is good and reasonably priced for this type of establishment. They sometimes have good deals (e.g. free bottle of wine with two fillet steaks - type of thing). The staff seem to work as a team and you see the same faces - unlike so many pubs where the staff churn endlessly. The Manor Farm is a very good pub indeed and I highly recommend it if you are in the area. griffo59 - 15 Jul 2011 20:01 |
