Jeremy Clarkson’s £1 million pub has finally opened to the public as fans of the former Top Gear man rush to check out his latest business venture.
The pub, called The Farmer’s Dog, has swung open its doors to the general public today (23 August) following on from weeks of intense labour to get the 15th century building in decent shape after being left somewhat dilapidated.
Clarkson took over the pub earlier this year after it had shut down following decades of serving customers in the local area.
As of midday today – just in time for the August bank holiday weekend – people can now visit the pub for a drink or a bite to eat.
Ahead of opening, the cost of a pint was revealed by LADbible across all different varieties of Hawkstone lager and cider options.
And with a farm shop and butchers on site too, punters can get their hands on their fair share of Diddly Squat merchandise while buying local produce at the same time.
The pub had a soft opening on Thursday night for loyal customers of Hawkstone as well as family and friends, with all the main cast from Clarkson’s Farm in attendance including Kaleb Cooper, Lisa Hogan, Gerald Cooper, and of course Jeremy himself.
Aside from the cost of a pint, LADbible has seen the menu and how much you can expect to pay for a bite to eat at The Farmer’s Dog. This ranges from bar snacks to large plates and desserts.
