Sunday lunch was a solid 8/10 for the chicken which came with decent roast potatoes (not too crispy on the outside), excellent vegetables (beautifully cooked carrots, green beans, cabbage), a good amount of chicken on and off the bone. Let down by the lack of a Yorkshire pudding, ordinarily I’d be insulted by that, but the super pork (?) crackling on top of the chicken and the weirdly square and thin slab of slightly toasty stuffing, I think that’s what it was. It was good.
Beers on tap all decent. Nice atmosphere, lovely service, little garden out back, dog-friendly - look forward to coming back some time.

Lovely pub in the village of Penn Street, Amersham - in the heart of the Chilterns AONB. The food and service were excellent. This is a great place to have bite to eat before a day of walking in the surrounding woods and trails. Highly recommended.

Recently reopened - refurbished sympathetically inside and tidied up outside. Still has the children's play area in the garden.
Menu is more comprehensive than before, our mains all arrived hot and cooked well just felt slightly lacking. Will be back as its not been open long so would like to try more of the food, it's much improved over all

This is the second time I've visited the pub. The food is lovely, decor cosy and staff are friendly. It is pretty disorganised though and could do with someone getting the ship in order a bit more. When you walk in you have to ask for a menu,
it's not clear whether you have to order at the bar or not.Staff need to be more assertive and lead customers to where they should be or where they need to sit etc. During both visits, our order came to the table with dishes missing. Aside from that, very nice. Leaving this review to try an help improve things as it is a shame...

Really nice first visit. They warned us of a wait for food on entry but it was worth the wait. Pork tomahawk was a highlight!

We were a bit hesitant to visit this pub after reading some of the reviews but it turned out to be a great place that we will definitely be visiting again very soon! The food was excellent and very flavourful and all of the staff were lovely and very attentive. The service was pretty slow throughout our meal but the food was definitely worth the wait ☺️

A great place to sit down after hiking all day as it has a great climbing frame for kids to keep them busy.

Great pub with a massive garden, food is good quality and atmosphere is great. Accepts (slightly) muddy boots and dogs which is useful as it's opposite the cricket pitch and some woodlands.
In the summer the garden is a real bonus with plenty of seating, a good climbing frame/playset for kids and cover as well.
There is some parking onsite and there is some onstreet parking around although it gets busy as this is white a popular spot - but no worries if it's full try your luck at the Hit and Miss around the corner!
Accessibility wise there are some steps inside, do get to the 'restaurant' and to get to the loos. The carpark is gravelly and prone to puddles and there is limited pavement if you park on the road, which has some significant potholes.

Epic Discovery alert - first time here since it was refurbished last year , welcoming cosy pub with roaring fires, good selection of beers . Very good wine list
Starting with excellent olive, bresoala, pine nuts , leaves and mustard dressing, on to lamb short ribs with slaw and spiced aubergine salad . Cherry meringue dessert
All executed perfectly.
Go before everyone finds this quintessential pub
Add to all this an eclectic curated mix of music .
Reasonable for the high standard of food

Nice staff and a great kids play area, sadly the food is normal frozen food fried or reheated, nothing bad but nothing special. They looked to have a good selection of beer and ale though which would have liked to try.

Nice secluded country pub. Good range of beer and cask ales. Food menu has a lot of options including gluten free. The place has a few fireplaces and a play area at the back with outdoor seating as well. Family friendly and dog friendly too.
