I have been to this restaurant so many times and never realised I had not done a review. I think the fact that I have been so many times over many years tells you it's own story. The food is fantastic there is also a great selection of wines and they also make some fab cocktails. The staff are brilliant and so friendly they are there when you need them but do not fuss around you which makes for a perfect balance all set in a lovely restaurant. Totally recommend especially if your a meat lover. See you soon.

Completed a perfect day. Steak tartare was deliciously (started eating before photographed!), as was the barbecued meat with freshly prepared salads (didn't photograph as we were too eager to attack our plates)! The rhubarb, hibiscus and gin parfait with lemon sorbet was the best dessert I have had in a long time. We chanced upon this restaurant after a day at Goodwoof and so pleased we did. Thank you for making us and our two dogs so welcome.

I am so pleased that we chose to eat at Farmer Butcher Chef. We went there 1 year ago and it was great, but today was outstanding and was told that Ollie is now the top chef. We have eaten in some top places worldwide and we found the food to exceptional. All the food was perfectly seasoned and cooked with thought and passion. All the staff were absolutely lovely and the ambience was relaxing. I would totally recommend this restaurant.

We’ve eaten at The Goodwood Hotel before but this was our first experience of Farmer,Butcher,Chef. The restaurant was relaxed with quirky, mainly farming themed decorations. Staff were very helpful & not pushy at all. We both had the steak & chips which was delicious. A bottle of Rioja & a cheesecake to finish all made for a wonderful experience of locally produced food. Highly recommended.

Another fabulous meal at Farmer, Butcher, Chef. Our first time for an evening meal, and for a special birthday occasion. Lots of special little touches, and oh the cheese selection is stupendous, with a little bit of theatre.

Exceptionally good food and exceptionally good service. This dessert was the winning dish, it was exquisite! We were also told it was made by the apprentice chef who is only 18!! Not sure of their name but well done you!!
