I'm at a drum and base festival a very bad one since 11am. I didn't buy tickets or officially attend. Thing is tho I'm sitting in the garden where I live and some peanut wannabe old packet head thinks he's running Glastonbury at the pub opposite and he's actually embarrassing. The windows are even shaking. Can this day get any better.Big up The Alexandra pub. Packet city who gives no consideration to its neighbours

Wanted a small Sunday snack and had tried 2 other pub's in the area who both said that they weren't serving food. Bought a Guinness and vodka and lemonade as the DoomBar wasn't on, and ordered a prawns starter. We waited over 30 minutes for the food and it was so so salty we couldn't taste the prawns which were served in a very oily batter and not breadcrumbs as advertised. On the plus side we did get a refund for the food after complaining.

This is a good old fashioned boozer with a modern feel so it's for everyone who likes pubs. It's smart and has great events, TV screens and lovely beer garden in the heart of Farnborough. And it's very competitively price. Plus the staff are amazing. So come here instead of the Tilly.

The quality and portions were phenomenal. I had the Pork Tomahawk Steak with a beautiful silky cheese sauce and it was delicious. Now under new management and ownership I was shocked at quality and presentation of the plate. The ambiance of the pub and dining area plus the frienliness of the staff was incredable. The food was highly recommend by my daughter and I highly recommend it to anyone reading this review. You will not be dissapointed. Ps I would like to say thanks for the nice Scottish Tablet and Macaroon Bar and also for a very nice family night out x

My partner went to order drinks and was harassed by two drunk guys. Ended up having to run back to me as no one else in the bar batted an eyelid. It's disgusting that a female should be made to feel that uncomfortable in this day and age, and even the staff do nothing to stop the behaviour.

Booked a Valentines Dinner as Advertised. Turned up did get asked what my name was. Stated there was a Wake taken place so choose a Table. The Deal what was Advertised was not on display. I challenged the Landlord, who was rude and stated you choose of the Menu. Even tough there was a Set menu Advertised for £21.95. Absolutely disgusting, so went to Wetherspoons and got a better service and ambiance.

Me and my friend walked in we had had nothing to drink, it was full of just men that went silent as soon as me and my friend (both young girls) walked in and the bartender said my friend has drank too much and gave us one drink and then told us to leave she said she hasn't drank that night at all but he didn't care and the atmosphere was very unsettling as the men (including staff) were talking about topics such as sexual assault in not a good way very loudly which made us very uncomfortable. Only good thing about it was the dog . Don't recommend this bar for women

Fish and chips were excellent as were the sausages and mash and cheese and bacon burger. We were all happily stuffed. Great new landlady was really helpful. Three of the five dishes were kids or small servings with two full meals. We had four ciders and three juices and all for a fraction over fifty quid. Marvellous. Stacks of games too. See you again.

The Atmosphere was ok as it was on the Octoberfest day, however the food and the service were just awful.. the sausage and roll were cold and tasteless accompanied by very few small pieces of potatoes chips. The lady at the counter could not take our order for a long time as she was confused and did not know what’s available and which menu to use ( regular or Octoberfest one). We made our selection using the regular menu and she took our order, then turned around and said that she cannot take our order without any explanation. I had to find out from another bar tender that we can only order the Octoberfest option (“German” sausage and chips) which was way below average. Will never go back .

The food was fantastic! I had the lunch fish fingers and chips and it was so good. The beer batter on the fish was so light, the homemade tartar sauce was on point, and the chips were the perfect amount of crispy. Everyone there - employees and patrons - were so friendly, too. I will definitely be coming back!

I visited this pub on 11th May 2023. A lively local pub with BT sport on the tv, there is a dart board and plenty of outside seating at the rear of the pub. There is parking but limited. The pub has just reopened, so the garden is a work in progress. The venue does food and is very, very good. I tried the pork tomahawk steak, and this has to be tried . If you are in the area, put this on your list. Will I go again, yes.

Without doubt the worst Sunday lunch I've ever had and I've had hundreds. I've been eating sunday lunches out for over 25 years so this is quite an achievement! Could not eat it. Also no offer of a refund even though they acknowledged it was poor. Feel bad for the guy serving as he was nice, but clearly stretched. Several people left early as food didn't arrived - they have no idea how lucky they were.

When you look over the menu in The Alexandra you realise instantly this isn't typical pub grub. It's full of culinary delights which overwhelm the palette with flavours and textures beyond belief. I have personally in the pub on numerous occasions and cannot believe the quality of the food from the vegetables to the meat. The Sunday Roast is exceptional and the cooks expertise in timing/ quality of produce cannot be surpased. The welcome by the landlord/ landlady ( Mike & Tegan ) is warm and friendly with a great atmosphere throughout the pub.

Decided to try lunch here. A rare occasion for me to find time, so important that it hit the mark. Had the steak and red onion baguette, and it did just that. Cooked to perfection and the sun was breaking through too, which whilst I understand the manager didn't organise, it certainly added to a great hours lunch break.

Popped in for a Sunday roast with no booking. Warm friendly service greeted us both. The quality of the meat was really good. My beef was juicy and succulent and so too was my partner's belly of pork. There was no cracking, as promised in the menu, but it was so good that she did not complain. I found out later, after winning a crown in the meat raffle, that they use Woods Butchers( a highly reputable local butcher). The cauliflower cheese was very good. Very cheesy. However, despite the great presentation of the veg, it did let the meal down. Parsnips were a bit hard and the green beans were a bit rough. Roast potatoes were ok. Without the friendly service and quality of the meat, it would have been a 4 star. I'd like to try it again and hopefully they will up their game with the veg.

The Alex is a great place to pop in for a drink. The local folks are welcoming and the staff are all very nice people. The landlady is one of the most wonderful people I've ever met and can help sort anything that's needed. Beers are average priced for a proper pub. Trivia nights and poker nights are always a fun time. The rooms are fairly basic with a bed, bathroom, and a TV, but the value for money is exceptional. A breakfast basket is dropped every morning. If visiting Farnborough, I definitely recommend a visit.

Not been in this pub since leaving the Army over 20 years ago. Not much changed on the outside, can't comment on the inside due to Covid. We sat in the beer garden and ordered our drinks via the app and they were promptly delivered to our table by a cheerful member of staff. They have obviously invested in some outdoor gazebos and are not bad at all. There is even a TV in the large one. We only popped in whilst travelling through Farnborough, so not my local and I can't comment on what it is like in the evenings or when it is busy. But it was fine on a Saturday at about 3pm. There was one guy sitting on the veranda drinking and every second word out of his mouth was the "F" word, it would have been nice to see the staff requesting for less swearing, so would not be good to have children at that particular time. Dropped one star because of this.

I threw my partner a Surprise 30th here and everything was fantastic! The pub were so helpful in the build up, so accommodating and quick to respond to any questions I had. I was able to use and decorate one side of the pub and the pub put on a buffet. The food was excellent, with big portions, lots of variety and so accommodating of dietary requirements! Everyone who came had the best time and said they would be coming in again, my partner absolutely loved it! Big shout out to all the staff who were so friendly and helpful throughout the night too. Looking forward to our next trip - just a bit of a toned down visit this time! Thank you to all!
