The Farmhouse

You'll find this sprawling spot on Beechwood Avenue doing exactly what Earlsdon folk want - decent food without the pretence. The kitchen takes pub classics seriously, turning out proper Sunday roasts that pack the place at weekends and fish and chips that actually justify the queue on Friday nights. The beer garden is where this place really comes alive, especially when the sun's out and the barbecue fires up. Inside feels more restaurant than boozer, with wooden tables and enough space that you're not elbow-to-elbow with strangers. It's the sort of place that works whether you're after a quick pint and burger on a Tuesday or bringing the parents for a proper Sunday lunch. The staff know their regulars but don't make newcomers feel like outsiders.
