Jeremy Clarkson's pub, the Farmer's Dog, has become a sensation since its appearance in the smash-hit Amazon Prime series Clarkson's Farm. The pub features prominently alongside in season four, which debuted three weeks ago and quickly captured the hearts of viewers.

The on-screen exposure has triggered an influx of visitors to the Oxfordshire spot, all keen to taste the food, enjoy the ambiance, and maybe even rub shoulders with himself. Among those drawn by curiosity was star Henry Southan, who took a Father's Day trip to the venue.

The influencer, who finished third in the reality show and commands a following of 183,000 on TikTok, was eager to see if the buzz about the pub lived up to expectations.

Upon his arrival, Henry exclaimed on TikTok: "I've just got to Jeremy Clarkson's pub, the Farmer's Dog and got a reservation for lunch for my dad for Father's Day - it's like arriving at Glastonbury."

He continued, bewildered: "I feel like I've arrived at like a musical festival, there is just so many people. Where are they all going to go? The pub can't be that big, surely. I'm very confused."

Documenting his experience, he added: "This is the overflow car park, like I'm in a field far away from the pub and now I've got to trek to the pub. Even with a reservation it's absolutely wild."

Henry voiced his concern about potentially missing his booking due to the unexpected hike and was equally surprised to encounter a queue at the entrance.

"I tell you what this better the best roast I have ever eaten to justify the pain and the rigmarole that has gone into parking and everything," he declared.

Yet, when it was time to critique the much-anticipated meal, his verdict was brutally blunt: "Really dry" was how Henry described the meat, with a particular thumbs-down for the pork.

He concluded his succinct video review by stating: "Jeremy Clarkson's pub was... interesting."

He was not the only patron left wanting more.

Echoing the sentiment, an individual commented online: "I loved Clarkson's Farm and I love everything Jezza does for the farming community, but I wont lie when I visited the pub I was SO disappointed!".

Another customer shared their dissatisfaction, saying: "We went on opening weekend and didn't even get to go in the actual pub. Watching the series I understand why now, but seriously sucks being part of the dramatic bits in the show when you've driven three hours and get no food."

Yet some rushed to the pub's defence amidst the critique.

One TikTok user put things into perspective by pointing out: "You booked... on Father's Day. Did you expect it to be dead? Did you expect the food to be like it would be if it wasn't over booked? Work in hospitality for a bit and then you'd actually be in the real ."

Another voiced their thoughts with a dose of reality: "Really, did you think you were off to your local?" And yet another offered a tongue-in-cheek response: "Booked busiest restaurant in Britain right now - angry when busy?".

Some customers have been dishing out advice for those planning a visit, suggesting they keep their hopes in check and make sure they've got plenty of time to spare.

One customer remarked: "It's a pub, it's not Michelin starred, it's not famed for its food or its facilities so why expect it. It's only famous for the guy who owns it and the TV programme it appears on. People need to lower their expectations."

Another visitor, who popped into the pub over the weekend, shared their experience: "I took my dad there for Father's Day. I went in the pub for a drink but didn't book for food, that burger from 'The Farmer's Puppy' burger van was possibly one of the best I've had in my life. 11/10 fantastic day out just get there early!".
