About The Tilly Shilling
The Tilly Shilling is a pub at Units 2-5 in Farnborough, decorated with a propeller, blueprints, and wartime memorabilia, with door handles styled as old Spitfire controls and tables set out in a regimental layout. Breakfast runs alongside a menu of twenty dishes, including a Traditional Breakfast, Fish and Chips and Peas, a Mixed Grill, and Burger and Chips, with Cider, Punk IPA, and DoomBar on tap. Alcohol service doesn't start until 9am, though unlimited tea and coffee are offered before then. The pub opens daily and takes walk-ins, with orders also placed through an app. It stays open late, and the menu covers breakfast through to evening food in one sitting.

Customer Review Summary
Reviewers most often single out the breakfast, with the unlimited tea and coffee mentioned alongside it. The Spitfire theme, with a propeller, blueprint and wartime memorabilia, draws praise, as do the friendly staff and cheap drinks. One regular returns for a pint of Doom Bar. Ordering through the app is called quick. Criticism is mild: one says the food lacks flavour, another that the regimental table layout diminishes the atmosphere.

“Quick easy ordering from app and reasonably quick delivery. Cost effective option for drinks and food, though it's regimental layout of tables diminishes the atmosphere, but you get what you pay for... Wetherspoons have sussed out the budget end of the market well.”

“Pretty decent Wetherspoons. Drinks are nice and cheap and the pub has a lovely, clean interior. Food is alright, but lacking in some flavourl. Nonetheless, it's open late and inexpensive! Great place to grab a pint and hang out!”

“Beautifully Spoon's in homage to the great Spitfire....... propeller, blueprint, wartime memorabilia (even the door handles are old Spitfire controls!) Make it on your list to come see this place and savour! Lovely staff and great breakfast to boot!!”

“This place offers incredible value without compromising on quality. You'll find delicious meals, tasty ales, and fine wines at prices that will amaze you. I'm a regular here, drawn by their excellent breakfast. The food is always cooked to perfection, and the service is consistently friendly and efficient. For added convenience, you can order your meal through the app. The Tilly Shilling doesn't start serving alcohol until 9am. Personally, I prefer to wait until the sun is high in the sky before indulging (unless I'm at the airport). One of the best perks is the unlimited tea and coffee. It's a fantastic deal that makes this place even more appealing. I wholeheartedly recommend it!”

“Tillys is my Home Wetherspoon after I moved to UK. 7+ years now. Though I moved recently to Guildford I felt to have at least 1 pint of DoomBar on the Christmas eve here. And I had that just 1 pint😍😎 …”
