Jeremy Clarkson flooded with support from fans as he reveals his pub and ‘Diddly Squat 2’ open TODAY
JEREMY Clarkson’s pub is finally open for business.
The former Top Gear star has been flooded with support from fans as he made a grand reveal.
Jeremy, 64, previously decided to embark on a brand new business venture.
After the success of his series Clarkson’s Farm, he bought the £1million Cotswolds public house in June.
The team have been preparing to open up the boozer plus a brand new farm shop at the site, and they seem to be ready to go.
And it seems that the business is already a hit with locals as they were queuing up to enter in droves.
The former The Grand Tour presenter arrived at the pub this morning with a fresh delivery as he carried mushrooms into the premises.
Cameras followed the star as he officially launched the site and welcomed his first customers.
This was after the official Instagram account of The Farmer’s Dog posted a behind-the-scenes video of Jeremy’s partner Lisa Hogan.
On Thursday, she was helping to get the shop ready with all their fresh produce for the grand opening a day later.
It captioned the clip: “Lisa and the team been working hard to get it ready and now Diddly Squat 2 almost ready to roll..come see it in its full glory from tomorrow here at The Farmer’s Dog..”
In the short video she explained: “This is the Diddly Squat puppy pub and it’s basically ready.”
The man filming put questions to the star as they gave fans a special tour around the new food and drink boutique.
She said: “I think we’re pretty much ready to go. I’ve got a bit more serving to do, I’ve got some things to hang up.
“But you know, I’m in my happy place with all my products.”
The camera then panned to show all the food on display, which included bread, fudge, honey, jam, shandy, and even branded mugs.
