    £15 for a burger with no fries ?

    Hello Greeno, thoughts for your grandads. We shouldn't forget the bravery shown by the boys of the past. Important question. Did you find the defibrillator near the cook shack?? Cos at those prices my heart skipped a beat💓and I'm only watching a video of the robbery 🤠😵‍💫The sausage roll, pre-cooked sausages. Then split and slapped on the hot-plate to reheat. Hence the speedy service. When you're told the cost of the burger. Can you phone a friend? Ask the audience? It's OK to make a profit, but that comes close to profittering. As you said the name above the door, is the big draw. Carry on Allan&Family

      Much better off finding a farm shop and cafe closer to where they live, without the celebrity association

    You don't get a lot of food for £21. Just what is the premium tax for the name Jeremy Clarkson. Too much in my eyes. Not worth the money in my opinion.

      Yep, certainly a celebrity tax at play with the pricing. I know it’s on the telly, but to queue 90 mins to get into a farm shop is madness in my opinion!

    I enjoy the TV show, but don't feel the need to visit the farm shop. I don't like queueing and crowds, and overpriced average food.

      There are a lot better options for most people a lot closer to their homes!

      Yes, better to support your local farm shop I would say!

      Disgustingly overpriced. Very distasteful and disappointing.

      It's actually not. ​@@R3s0n4te farmers are being mauled by this government and clarkson is actually trying to pay them fairly. If you want kebab garbage go buy that. It's cheap for a reason.

      You certainly pay a premium having a name attached

    So £3 of produce for £20 🥴 I’ll be taking a packed lunch if I visit 🫣

      Pricing certainly at the top end of acceptability… but I would have to say it’s not a place worth visiting unless you’re gonna try the food, because aside from that it’s just a small farmshop. Better to visit a farmshop in your local area and support your local farmers.

    The worlds gone bonkers come to middlesbro you'll get a full parmo chips salad mayo for £11 . To die for . Typical Clarkson woke heads.

      Not sure I have ever seen Clarkson and woke in the same sentence before ha ha! I must make a trip up to the North East at some point - in which case a parmo would certainly be on the agenda!

      It's top end price wise I think, especially with no real seating options to boot.
