| Made a return visit after only a year and as other reports suggest, it has changed. The local ales are still present and a new menu in place but the main alterations are to the decor - there is a new sleekness to the presentation and window sills have been finished off in a fetching shade of dark green. Definitely more clinical now and the garden has been levelled by some Inigo Jones wannabe - someone who clearly wasn't impressed with its undulations. No sign of a barbecue but still a good stop off amid great walking country. BoehmBawerk - 15 Jul 2012 18:48 |
| It has reopened, but I am yet to sample it in its new guise. I'll write a brief report once I do. pubsampler - 7 Jun 2012 10:31 |
| "Closed for refurbishments until May 2012" according to its website. pubsampler - 16 Oct 2011 17:36 |
| Having walked from Henley via Aston, we were looking forward to lunchtime refreshments at this pub. Sadly it had CLOSED FOR BUSINESS last Sunday, 4 September. The lady at the pleasant little store advised that the pub is owned by the Hambleden Estate and is being redeveloped to provide more bedrooms, amongst other improvements. She hoped it wouldn�t end up too much the modern gastro pub. Fortunately the store sold freshly filled rolls, pies, soft drinks, tea, coffee and canned beer, offering a welcome alternative. We dined al fresco on the stores picnic benches, watching the world pass by. Hellskitchen - 10 Sep 2011 10:43 |
| A classic country pub in a quite beatiful village near the border of three counties; perhaps the only pain is the mile + walk from the river (difficult, however, to blame those who presumably founded the place prior to the publication of the Domesday Book). The ales are good and nod to local tastes - Oxfordshire's Brakspear and Buckinghamshire's Rebellion are both on tap and the food is superior pub grub, but not pretending to "gastro" - the haddock and chips was mammoth and succulent. On the summer afternoon of our visit, an excellent barbecue was also in operation and pleasingly, for an area infested with hoorays, a full range of classes was represented, including not a few ramblers.
