Harte & Magpies Pub in Chiltern

Very good experience, very friendly and helpful staff, staff kept us informed of food prep time. Food was good food grub, not fancy just what we like

Very friendly staff and excellent food, I regret not taking a photo of the main course but at least I got one of the dessert, one of the best crème brûlées I’ve ever had.

Very friendly staff, thanks to Jamie, and good food served quickly and in decent portions. The drinks menu was plentiful and prices acceptable. Worth a visit and the small play park was a bonus for the kids

A pleasant rural pub. Friendly service. Great food. We didn't use the garden, but it is large and very nice. The only downside is that it is on the roadside.

We got together in a large family group for lunch on a very wet day in May. Lunch was good, the choice of food was very good both for the adults and the children. Staff were pleasant and efficient.

Stopped in for a cheeky swift half of Rebellion, and wound up treating ourselves to the Sunday roast. My oh my it did not disappoint. Generous portions of roast beef, a Yorkshire pudding the size of a small planet, delicious roasted potatoes and three different vegetables. And did I mention the gravy??!!! It had so much flavor!!! I can’t wait to go back again!!

Fantastic pub, my favourite place to go Love the atmosphere and the food is delicious!!! They welcome families Brilliant service

On Sat 27th Jan the H&M pub did a magnificent job of feeding up our walking group of 20 ramblers. We'd supplied an advanced food order and Si and team delivered our main courses very promptly leaving us time for teas/coffees/desserts before we set off again. The staff were also well organised to take our pre-order food payments at the same time we bought our drinks which speeded things along. The meal sizes were very generous and delicious so we were well fuelled up for our post-lunch walking. I can personally vouch for the fish and chips dish with its large portion of fresh cod and light batter. All of the walk group enjoyed their food choices so the H&M comes highly recommended as a great place to eat and drink.

We held my mother's wake at the Harte & Magpies and we were glad we did. We received a warm welcome, the service was excellent and the food was great. They set aside an area in the bar for our use, which was perfect and we were able to congregate and

OMG- went for their Christmas dinner and I can’t say enough good things. The stuffing was incredible, as was the turkey (Yorkshire pudding the size of my face). The hot seafood salad had wonderful flavors. The staff made it a lovely evening. I love coming here and this is now my new Christmas tradition!

Very disappointed with the Goat cheese salad! Supposed to be Goat cheese with roasted vegetables and croutons! None of these but a bed of salad leaves sliced tomatoes and cucumber! Shame the cheese was good though!

We had a very pleasant evening at the Harte & Magpies pub quiz. A really friendly quiz master & very helpful bar staff. Amazing food to boot! Highly recommend for a meal any night, but Wednesdays if you fancy the quiz too!

Had a lovely dinner with family! Starters were incredible: Dough balls, the prawn gambas special did not disappoint! Mains were the classic burger, chicken Caesar Salad, and the Grilled pork chop special (I got the last one!!) and the Beef Stew with Mash. We loved every bite! Went down well with Rebellion and Malbec. We love starting our weekends off here. Pub owner(s) are just the nicest people. Always greet us with a smile and take time to chat.

Arrived last minute, accommodated for us fantsically can’t thank them enough ! Hjjjiiiiiiiuuigyyuuuuuyyuyuuyytyyyttttttttttttfffff

Great atmosphere, friendly service a very good selection of drinks and tasty, reasonably priced food. Thoroughly recommended!!

We were meeting up with friends who travelled from Surrey and we came from Milton Keynes in another pub in Amersham but they had a flood in their kitchen so we decided to try Harte & Magpies pub. So glad we did. We stayed from noon until 6pm. The fish and chips were exceptional both in the size of the fish and taste. In fact all the food was excellent along with great speedy service with a smile. What more could anyone want. The sun came out and we spent all afternoon in the lovely garden. We will meet up here again next time.

Called in for a quick pint on way home from work. Friend ordered a Grolsh. The beer was clearly a bit "off". We mentioned it to the landlord who went on to tell us we dont know what it should taste like. Will not go back there again.

Got in early food was outstanding service was outstanding nice little pub and the prices are reasonable definitely come back

We are regulars here as it’s a lovely walk, the food is always very good and the team always super friendly. Today was no exception and the roast was absolutely superb! Delicious, generous and lots of lovely fresh veggies! We will be back again very soon!

We had lunch in the pub as a walking group of 18. They provided excellent communication when providing them with our pre-order lunch order, and an excellent service this afternoon in providing our food. I would recommend any walking group to visit the pub for their lunch, food was good value for money. Very friendly staff!

The Harte & Magpies continues to serve some of the best food around. The staff are very welcoming and friendly and really appreciate your custom. During the warmer weather, there's a large garden in which families can bring their children to play, the pub is dog-friendly, smokers wishing to eat outside can do so with no problem and all these groups are all easily catered for.

On a very pleasant, sunny Wednesday we took a couple of mile walk through bluebell laden woods to the Harte & Magpies. Although a little breezy, it was warm enough to take a table outside and enjoy the sunshine while it lasted. We haven’t been...

The food here is great but the H&M serves the best fish and chips in Buckinghamshire. Great staff and great beer. Fantastic!!!

The fish and chip option on the menu was clearly labelled as cod, very disappointed to have a poor substitute pollock served. Terrible.

Slightly expensive but big portions and a large out door garden, with a children’s play area. Also a very friendly dog :)

Between Amersham + Beaconsfield this 'country' pub is well worth a visit. Lovely, helpful staff and a decent menu allied to a good 'playwark' for the kids. Thanks to Kim for making this a great meal out. Interesting note the Menu have great options for...

We visited today for lunch for the first time. The staff were very welcoming and friendly, the food was excellent and the portions were very generous. The children's climbing frame was an added bonus. We will definitely be returning, thank you!

A very good pub great food and friendly helpful staff we had a great time and even though you didn’t have Inns and Gunn bitter I wouldn’t hold that against you Thank you

So on Wednesday night (26.8.20), as it was a pleasant evening thought we would give this pub a try. Have not been here for a while used to visit often when children were little.With Covid we aim to eat outside and also this way we can check how we would feel about sitting inside if we should decide to go back.We arrived and car park plenty of spaces and a lot of tables outside. We saw friends who we joined and we then decided to order the ribeye steak and gammon. Well what can I say this meal was exceptional, not many places cook a steak to your requirements this just melted. My husband said the gammon was nice and not salty at all.Generous portions to the point we could not sample the puddings.Would we go back def yes and for the meal we would pay full price. Staff well what can you say friendly accommodating and very helpful.Covid safe - yes I would and will book this month to eat inside. Well done all

We had driven past this pub numerous times but never ventured in - WoW glad we went in Monday evening , Adrian the owner runs a lovely pub offering exceptionally good food. The prawns are a must , as is the Thai green curry!!!! Lovely pub atmosphere with Scrumpy the dog keeping one company as well - we will definitely be back soon!!

Just had a lovely meal here. We had two mains and two starters in total plus 3 drinks. One was a rib eye at £21. Because of the Eat Out to Help Out scheme it only cost £33! Well worth a visit. Dog friendly and a lovely garden when it isnt raining. Should of taken a photo of our plates. Not a morsel left.

We have just got back from a lovely lunch at the Harte and Magpies. We went on my husbands recommendation as he said I wouldn’t be disappointed and I wasn’t! I had the belly pork from the specials board which was delicious and a mouse cake for desert. My husband had a burger followed by coffee. The portions were a good size and everything was perfectly cooked.The staff were friendly and attentive and made every effort to make us feel comfortable and safe.We were able to take advantage of the ‘eat out to help out’ scheme so all in all a lovely afternoon for our Anniversary.Thank you!

We organised our car club meeting at the pub and the owner, Steve and his staff were very welcoming, accommodating and caring. We were very impressed with the delicious food of generous portions which was freshly cooked and well served. Nothing was too much trouble and they coped admirably with the restrictions related to the Covid problem.We were so delighted with the pub that we have boked our next meeting there.Thank you Steve and your staff.

After being in lockdown for so long, we collected our grandchildren from nursery and summer camp, and took them to this pub. The first thing we noticed was that the climbing frame in the garden was out of use. We had a ball with us, so we got by.Went inside to order drinks for adults, Plus one bottle of apple juice, one glass of tap water. The reason we ordered the water was to dilute the apple juice for the children so that they would not get hyper before bedtime. The landlord told us he would not make much profit on us if they shared the juice. I felt so annoyed, I did not respond.We then ordered two meals, one childrens and one adults. Again he commented that we were sharing!Our meal arrived in the garden and the children really enjoyed it.As the landlord was collecting glasses later, I asked if he had a children’s menu for dessert? He replied, ice cream. I asked if it was a cornet or in a dish. He said a dish. I was about to order one dish for them to share (not because we are mean and could not afford it, but again, we did not want them to get hyper on the sugar before bedtime).Again he said he would not make money on us if they shared. The children ended up having two ice lollies instead.After The pub being shut for so long, I was appalled to be treated like this. Customer service was bad.We then discussed this and realised that last year when we visited this pub on two separate occasions, he treated us the same with comments about sharing and his profits.This is out of order. We spent about £32. Were there for about one and a half hours, then left. The pub was empty and there were loads of empty tables in the beer garden.I wonder why???????

Thank you to the amazing staff for providing one of the most memorable and delicious meals for my family. Above and beyond what you expect! Thought, care and attention to detail. Thank you Steven and your team.

The pub itself is quite nice and the staff friendly but the food is expensive for what it is - £7.00 for egg and chips on the kids menu! Overall not bad but I may not rush back

The first thing you notice when walking into this pub is the complete lack of atmosphere which is almost enough on it’s own to make you turn right around and go find somewhere else to eat. It’s a shame, as the staff were friendly, there just seems to be no effort put into the customer experience. Sadly, the food was also lacking as much as the atmosphere. It’s a long time since I’ve eaten anywhere quite so bad. Both myself and my girlfriend agreed it won’t be long until this place closes down. Avoid.

Food was amazing, have the burger and chips, burger freshly homemade, tasted gorgeous. Service was very good too. Will defiantly come back

We went for a meal out on a Saturday night .Its been years since we'd last been here,but after reading the positive reviews about the food thought wed give it another try.We couldnt believe the interior was same old tired furniture . No music,sadly only one other couple dining. We felt obliged to stay as had pre booked. But found it very uncomfortable as there was no soft lighting and felt we could be overheard.you could literally hear a pin drop. The staff/landlord were very pleasant. We both enjoyed our main meals both freshly cooked,but didnt hang around for desserts and drinks. Such a shame. Heres a place with potential, shouting out for a visit from Alex Politzi

Good quality food, plenty of choice and good portions, friendly staff! who want to help. Book early on Sundays

Very welcoming friendly staff. Dog & children friendly. Great space and food. Would definitely recommend

A most enjoyable evening spent with business colleagues in this fine pub, with its superb food, and great range of beers. Service was superb.

Sunday lunch is a no no, though meat, plastic veg, totally tasteless meal. Very expensive for such poor food, would not recommend.

Visited on chance for lunch and wished this pub/restaurant was closer to home. Interesting menu and some good specials on offer, the bar offers interesting ales and good wines. The staff were very friendly and food superb, portions generous and would not recommend trying to eat three courses unless very hungry. Pork belly excellent and sea bass special equally good, along with the sticky toffee pudding which was shared. Highly recommended place to visit.

Stopped in for lunch today. The pub is lovely, plenty of space for kids to play outside, friendly bar/waiting staff. However, the roast dinner let them down. Hardly cooked broccoli, cold veg, tasteless tough lamb.

Visited last night with wife and kids and dogs. The service was excellent, and the food was very tasty. We will definitely return

Great food which is freshly prepared with very good portions! Very good hospitality and awesome service! Definitely recommend you pay them a visit! Thank you to the staff @ The Harte and Magpies! :)

A group of us went for lunch after our Mum’s funeral today. They couldn’t have been more welcoming, helpful and accommodating? Nothing was too much trouble. The food was excellent and we weren’t rushed at all. So grateful to; everyone for making a difficult day, so much easier. Thank you so much.

Great for a casual pub meal! They do food everyday which is unusual for a country pub. Fish & chips is pricey but the fish is huge and amazing, twice what you would get from your local chippy. Gambas pil pil is great too! Lots of pub favourites available. We go regularly on a week day evening for a treat!

Stopped off here for lunch on a hot day. As we had our dog with us I asked is it ok for dog to go in gardens and was told by manager/owner that they are welcome inside as well which was better as it was cooler.

Really lovely place.Great food with lots of choice. Lovely bar staff. Thoroughly recommend it! Will come again if in the area

Went here for the first time in a decade or so. The occasion being a reception with was well organised

Stopped here for lunch, found a pleasant pub with good food selection. The meals were home cooked and came with pleasant service that we enjoyed outside in the bear garden a nice family choice.

I chose the Harte and Magpies for my 40th birthday party, they served food for a 100 of my guests and then we hired the whole pub with a band playing music until midnight, amazing food, great staff, I would highly recommend this establishment to anyone.

Our favourite pub , food always hot tasty and well presented, never disappointed. Staff delightful, Francisco and Simon owner with his brother Steve always make us so welcome. Delightful outdoor area for families ,child and dog friendly. Owners dog Scrumpy (do not feed him) is so loveable and friendly. We love the atmosphere and homely feeling. Always take our friends and visitors there . Can’t wait to go again soon.

A very nice place for dining outdoor in the countryside. The menu could be improved; the sunday roast served was not memorable at all. Worth being tested again.

The food here is always lovely and very reasonably priced. The service is really friendly and I would recommend a visit.

This is a great pub, with a great garden with an awesome play area in a fenced in garden, so you know the kids are safe while you enjoy the great food and the great selection of craft ales and lagers alike, or per chance as I did, a summers Gin and Tonic. One of the best things is the atmosphere, which is uniquely for this Buckinghamshire area, was very non-pretentious, welcoming the muddy booted walker, and your dog, and even the staff seem to actually enjoy their work place and were extremely helpful and friendly. The barmaid I met named Fran went far and above to ensure our visit was beyond pleasant and this is certainly a pub I will visit again! Not to mention the excellent food, with not only a superb menu, but exceptional specials board - anyone who can make red cabbage taste amazing deserves a medal & I can whole heartedly recommend both the belly pork (with said red cabbage accompaniment) and their prawn starter, which we ordered twice!

We visit regularly with our dog - a great walk there and back with lunch in between. Great proper pub food made with locally sourced ingredients - nothing fancy, but very tasty, large portions and good value for money . Highly recommended.

Best food by far in the local area. As always great service and great food. I would definately recommend having the Thai green curry.

My partner and I popped in for a drink. Ended up having lunch which was lovely. APPLE PIE. Yum.

Popped a long to a local Harte and magpie And there was a classic American car meet. Wow some real nice look American cars. They meet once a month. Already looking forward to to next month

I dine every other Sunday at the heart & magpies and have no complaints at all... The food is excellent and the staff franceca and the owner always make us feel at home... Thank you guys.. The cod and chips is to die for. 😁

First time visiting and was pleasantly surprised and impressed with the food, service and welcoming friendly proprietor and staff. Thoroughly enjoyed it, the roast dinner was the best I’ve eaten out in a long time. We all loved it and it’s dog friendly too.

Popped in on the way home for a beer with my wife at 9pm ish..

Thank you to Simon and all your staff for accommodating our large party for Sunday lunch. We pre-ordered and despite our party not all being exactly on time, the service was prompt and so polite, once we were all there! We had a lovely time, the kids too, and hope we weren’t too noisy!

Spur of the moment visit for a late lunch. A friendly and efficient welcome and great pub food. An added bonus was the group of musicians playing traditional folk, and playing it very well! Would definitely eat there again.

The Harte and Magpies doesn’t pretend to be one of these pretentious ‘gastro pub’, that have become so common in the surrounding area. The Harte and Magpie, at its core, is a family friendly, dog friendly pub which produces quality pub food.

Great pub a must visit staff are amazing very friendly great selection on menu if you feeling hungry or just popping in for a coffee.

A very friendly atmospheric Inn which allows dogs. Went for a Sunday lunch. Food mediocre but more than made up for by the friendly quick service and attentive staff. May have been an off day for the Roast Pork.

I am a regular at this pub and have promised for a long time to join TA just to do this so here goes:

Wow, what can I say? What an amazing place. Food was fantastic, atmosphere was perfect, and the staff were really friendly. Was almost sad to leave. Would highly recommend. Can't wait to go again. Thanks guys and well done

Absolutely amazing, staff are super friendly and welcoming.

Pop in here for a meal as I couldn't be bothered to cook. Had a nice gammon steak with pineapple eggs and chips. Very tasty. A little pricey but the food was good

Despite having driven past this pub many many times over the years this was my first visit. It's well set out inside lots of seats but doesn't feel cramped up. We went early Sunday night and it was beginning to fill out.

I thought this place would be good but oh my, it’s so bad. Sunday roast with meat cut on a slicer, just like school or hospital food. Gravy and veg is a joke and for 14 pounds a pop. I had two 1mm slices of ham, two fried eggs and chips that had been cooked hours before, I mean come on, how hard can it be to fry chips to order. 10 pound for 3 quid cafe food. I was shocked at how bad it is. Fish and chips for 14 quid was vile.

We stopped off for lunch at this lovely pub. The staff are so friendly and welcoming and the food was very fresh and filling. The highlight of our visit was meeting scrumpy the dog! What a character, he certainly has the good life! We would definitely recommend this place and wished we lived nearer to visit again!
