Farmers’ Ordinaries
These market Ordinaries were great institutions in more leisurely times; men were not prepared to stand beside a counter and eat a bun or a sandwich, they wanted a good meal and time to enjoy it, with an hour or two over the wine to digest it in cheerful company.
The market Ordinary at The White Hart, over 60 years ago, always had a choice of thick or clear soup, a choice of fish, joints of beef and mutton or pork, and game when in season. For these meals a chairman was elected, or selected by some natural process and often occupied the chair for many years giving the loyal toast and ensuring a cheerful tone to the proceedings.
The Farmers’ Ordinaries of the pre and post Second World War were not such leisurely or opulent affairs. There were still markets held in the nearby towns; Bromyard, Worcester, Hereford, Leominster, Kidderminster, etc. and the local pubs would offer a set fixed price meal. Each establishment would have its own regular customers.
Although most of these markets have disappeared, we feel that the Farmers’ Ordinary was a good tradition and well worth reviving. For the next couple of months we will be offering a fixed price one, two or three course set lunch on Mondays to Saturdays 12.00 until 2.00. The menu will change daily.
Main Course - £10.00 2 Courses - £12.00 3 Courses - £14.00
DUE TO THE POPULARITY OF THIS IDEA, WE ARE NOW OFFERING A “FARMERS’ ORDINARY DINNER” MENU AT THE SAME PRICE. |
