The pub was originally two farm labourers cottages. They were brought by Charlie Bowyer and family who were builders by trade and they converted the two cottages into one. The family built a lot of houses in the area including the one next door to the pub, called the Poplar Cottage. In the 1970's the family decided they wanted to run a pub and converted their home into the Poplar Farm inn. A little while later they extended by purchasing a barn from Fyfield, dismantling it and reassembling it adjoining the pub. This area became known as the barn bar. Following a fire in 2005, the building has undergone a careful restoration. Hopefully our pub ghosts approved of our efforts and will enjoy the new building with the rest of us!
A country pub oozing rural charm and rustic character, our picturesque surroundings provide the perfect backdrop for savouring the hearty, seasonal pub-food on our menu, and the carefully nurtured cask ales and fine wines gracing our bar.

It wasn't a planned visit. We just turned up, the staff were friendly and helpful, the food was well cooked and presented,i had the smoked haddock and spinach fishcakes ( delicious) we also enjoyed a cocktail, everything was reasonably priced i think we spent around £35 each including drinks. A lovely place to enjoy a catch up with friends. Will visit again
Had a meal here on new years eve. Food was delicious and loved the live band that was playing. Will return.
Popped in here for lunch and it was wonderful from start to finish. The food and atmosphere was really good and we loved the board games and the open fire. Michael was quite possibly the best waiter we've ever experienced. Nothing was too much bother, and he was really attentive without being over the top. Thank you for an enjoyable afternoon out! Would definitely recommend
Such a lovely place! Me and my partner came here to try out their food properly as we had booked it for Christmas day...And WOW! we are so glad we booked it for Christmas day. The food was delicious! We both had the Lasagne and it was amazing. I had mine with Salad and Garlic bread and my partner had his with chips and garlic bread. The Lasagne was so lovely, you could actually taste the cheese sauce.. It was just beautiful! My salad was so fresh and crispy and the chips my partner had were chunky and just overall fab. The garlic bread was cooked and tasted perfect. We had the Apple crumble for pudding and it was lovely. We did find it a little bit too sweet and we think it could of done with more crumble to fruit ratio but still amazing. We were served by Andrew. He was great. The whole time we were there he was working the room and he was so efficient and quite impressive. Definitely an asset to the team. Overall, atmosphere was lovely, chairs were comfortable. Definitely a 10/10. If we didn't have to get there by taxi we would come so much more often. A credit to Andover.
Popped in for dinner as we passed it while away for a few days and glad we did. Tracy checked us in who was welcoming, friendly and showed us to our table. We sat in the dog friendly area as we had our rescue dog Ruby with us, they even serve up a little furry friends menu. Massive open fire which i bet is just amazing as the weather gets cooler. Although in a dog friendly area, we didn't feel separated from the rest of the pub either, The food and service were amazing thank you. They also have a little snug area for just drinks and somewhere to relax after your meal. Very cosy pub and 100% recommended if you are in the area. Thank you very much, Ben you have a great team well done everyone 👍
