Jan is also a keen gardener and forager and he be setting up his own mole and chicken allotment where we can grow and source our own vegetables to provide field to fork ingredients for our dishes.
A well chosen wine list accompanies the a la carte menus. We are a totally dog friendly establishment, come and meet our resident pub dog Buddy, in the winter months you can relax in front of the roaring open log fire or in warmer weather come and sit on our new terrace area, pop in to enjoy a quick drink or settle in for a relaxing time in the sun and lap up the stunning views, and let our amazing staff take care of you.
“I can scarcely think of a better place for al fresco eating. Tables command a wonderful view over miles of Buckinghamshire and Oxfordshire countryside spread beneath the ridge on which this splendid pub stands. But this cheerily rustic establishment, near Long Crendon, has special appeal too in the winter: its antique furnishings, mellow lighting and – above all – huge open fire make for country comfort at its best.”
