This is an attractive, white-washed pub in the heart of this small village just outside Buckingham. There are quite a few picnic benches at the front of the pub, and on a recent visit there was plenty of bunting strung around, presumably in respect of the jubilee celebrations. Inside, the main room is a cosy affair, with a low beamed ceiling and mustard paintwork, numerous pictures and mirrors on the walls and a mixture of tables, chairs, bench seating and high chairs at the wood panelled bar. Paintwork is a mixture of terracotta tiles and carpet. There is an old brick fire-place to the left and a small TV perched up in the corner, although this was not in use. There are various nic-nacs dotted around such as a selection of copper jugs hanging from the ceiling, an old horn gramophone and even a guitar tucked away in one corner. The jubilee theme continues inside with more flags and even a life-size cardboard cut-out of Her Majesty. To the right is an open, dual aspect chimney breast, and beyond this a small room that looks to be more geared up for dining, all the tables being laid up with red and white chequered table cloths. The menu itself is a decent enough selection of �pub grub� dishes such as Scampi & Chips, Ham, Egg & Chips, Beef & Guinness Pie, etc, with most of the main courses priced around the �9 - �10 mark. There was also a small specials menu. Staff all seemed friendly and helpful. Beers on tap were Old Hooky, 6X and Black Sheep. The solitary cider was Stowford Press which makes a very pleasant change from the ubiquitous Strongbow you seem to get around these parts. All in all this seems a great pub and is no doubt the heart of village life. Blackthorn - 14 Jun 2012 20:13 |
Nice friendly pub. Just been in once, but first impressions are of a friendly clean pub with good service and beer. woggler - 10 Apr 2008 10:56 |
Every village should have a pub like this - nothing fancy, just good beer, reasonable food and outdoor seating front and back. rpadam - 28 Nov 2007 23:01 |
