the General Havelock in Wycombe

Great little pub. A proper locals pub with decent home cooked food (super yummy) and friendly service.

A traditional suburban pub. Well kept beer. Proud of CAMRA heritage. Interesting internal decoration. Darts board. Really enjoyed my visit.

Went on Sunday for a roast, very quaint english pub, roast was good, great price, big portions and great service!

delicious food and very friendly staff. will be returning!

Nice beer good Thai food nice big beer garden

Best place to be! Come for yourself and see it😊 Great atmosphere, amazing staff and lovely old school pub.

Good, freshly cooked food. Not overly expensive. This pub is more of a 'local' pub, with a fairly friendly atmosphere. Food order took a while, but it was cooked to order so hardly surprising.

Did not eat this time drinks only, nice atmosphere but a bit noisy at times with a couple of groups of people. Overall a nice evening with a large selection of beers on offer.

Great really friendly local keeping good condition ales 👍✨ large beer garden 🏡 and a good Sunday roast

Very lovely atmosphere, I went there for a meeting only, hopefully next time will stop for food too. Friendly staff.

We found this pub as a stop mid way on a long journey, so it was our first visit. There was a good choice of tap ales and other drinks. Our main purpose was lunch and the menu had a good selection of home made snacks and dinners. Two of our group had the steak and kidney pudding and said it was excellent, and they especially mentioned the mash that was creamy and lovely. Two of us had the fish finger baguette that was huge and also came with rustic fries. This was very nice and was too much for either of us to finish. Overall, this was a great find, far better than the services! The service was excellent, the lady behind the bar was friendly, chatty and couldn’t do enough for us. A great little pub for lunch.

Consistency is the key word here. Yes, there are better restaurants but the minted lamb shank Sunday roast at The General Havelock is ALWAYS good

No food on a Tuesday, other than that a good old traditional pub

Nice people, good beer, dog friendly don't need much else.

Good old time Pub nice food and friendly

Absolutely fantastic food. Will definitely be back. Good service and good drinks.

A lovely pub! Went in for a few leavers drinks for a colleague andt6he décor was nice, easy to park up, polite staff and dog friendly!

Busy very traditional English pub. Great atmosphere. Roast was the best, absolutely delicious and large portions. Good value for money. We will definitely be back 🤩

Went here after another local pub was closed on new year's eve, and boy was it worth it, a big shout out to the staff and regulars who made us feel very welcome. Staff were fantastic, and the music and dancing that followed were epic. Fantastic night at a welcoming pub. We'll be back.

New years eve, totally brill loved it

Great local pub with decent beers and pub food - Sunday lunch is outstanding value for quality and quantity

Bad pub food I ordered a plain burger with nothing and gave me it with cheese then sent it back and gave me the same thing again it went back and forth about 4 times not very happy I do not recommend save your money and go somewhere else

Lovely local traditional pub - very welcoming atmosphere

Stopped here for lunch on the way to Lymington. Glad I did a bit of research looking for a proper pub with good food and friendly service. Proper steak and kidney pud here.

Good tasting beer just a shame there were kids in there fairly late running about

Sunday lunch was very good. Tables sticky and could do with a good cleaning. It was a bit noisy by loud men at the bar.

Very nice pub, great atmosphere, felt very welcome, the food was just right for us, love all the Deco so many interesting things and kids and dog friendly. Would defo recommend

Lovely Sunday lunch lots of fresh veg roasties were good and lots of gravy, my only criticism was the beef was overcooked i like mine pink but there was lots of it and very good value for money

We came for a meal tonight to try the new menu and support our local, omg it was amazing the presentation was second to none, we would recommend it to anyone.

Hadn't been there for years. Still a very nice pub.

Love coming here great local and great Thai food Thursday to Saturday, spent lots of time down here during the summer as has a great garden too, landlord is decent

Stumbled across this place looking for something to eat at 4pm, a tricky time. We got lucky, big time. It was a Thursday and that meant Thai-day at the generals. We had the duck tamarind and the green curry. Wow! I know it's a cliche but it was the best Thai food outside of Thailand. Have to go back and bring friends. Shame it's limited to Thursdays and Saturdays. Great selection of beers on tap too. Maybe the food on other days ain't so bad either?

A party of 4 enjoyed a great get together on Monday lunchtime. Ribs all round, well priced and so tasty

Great local pub great food and all the staff are so friendly and great food

Beautiful historic pub with a lovely garden .The staff are all very friendly with excellent customer service .The roasts are excellent and plentiful ,I have had the beef and then the last time the lamb shank .Looking forward to trying the Thai as have heard this is delicious too .

Great friendly and dog friendly local. Thai food on Thursday and Saturday is excellent. Smashing team and a good pint. Worth supporting a good local.

A go to for their Sunday roasts!

Awesome Sunday lunch at an awesome price! Service and atmosphere were great! We will be back! Make reservations ahead of time if you don't mind hanging at the bar or giant garden while waiting for a table

Love this place. As a new local my Husband and I thoroughly enjoy coming here and now more often.

Fabulous pub but there’s some random weird stuff on the walls and a lot of stuffed animals.

Best pub in town, good garden, good beers, good food, good people

Been in for our first and unfortunately last roast the service was brilliant shame about the meal my roast beef came out with a slab of well over cooked beef that was as tough as boot leather on the top almost covering the veg. A very small amount of gravy.

Went for a roast dinner with 6 other family members. Booked for 3pm and pre ordered ahead. Our food came out at 3.45pm. All of our veg was Luce warm. Not once did we get asked if everything was ok. Had ro ask for dessert menu then to get told sorry but there are no desserts today. You have thought this would have been mentioned when I had booked and pre ordered. Very disappointed

Great pub and lovely food. On Thursday and Saturday they have Thai food. It is amazing. The service is always great, they have a beer garden and car park. Attached is my duck thai curry takeway from there - last Saturday. 10/10.

It's a lovely oldy woldy inside the pub which is lovely, not too many parking spaces, benches / chairs and tables outside is a bit tatty. Staff lovely

A quaint, quirky establishment that embodied the "local pub" vibe. Inside there were several taxidermy features, vegans may not be keen, and friendly patrons sat at the bar making conversation with us and each other while drinking their drinks. Despite the crowd at the bar not needing to be served, the staff were quick to notice us though and we were never left waiting. They were serving Thai food while there, had the Pad Thai whilst my friends had small plates, the quantity to cost ratio was definitely in my favour as I spent less and left full, whilst they fought over the last spring roll. Would recommend giving the pub a go if you enjoy supporting local business.

This is our lunchtime pub, very friendly staff, food is good and a nice choice of beers. Resonable prices.

They did an amazing authentic Thai cuisine on the night we went, and I just want to say that it was amazing :). Coming from a British pub it was such an amazing day and experience

Lovely chill in beer garden of a friendly pub

Good old style pub. Staff welcoming, had Thai meal, very nice

Really friendly owners and staff, we felt well looked after the whole time. Classic pub food, perfect as a stop on our long drive.

Beautiful old Pub. Thai food seemed a bit out of character but was cooked to perfection.

Great Sunday lunch, would highly recommend their roast dinners. Roast and mashed potatoes, 6 different veg, Yorkshire pud, meat of your choice and gravy. Delicious food and great service what more could you want!

Gorgeous staff great atmosphere

For a Sunday lunch with the family the Havelock is a big hit. Traditional pub offering a Sunday roast menu. Great value, generous portions, friendly service from all the team who genuinely care. All plates cleared and supplemented with a good selection of beers and well kept ales.

Great pub with nice vintage interior and lovely garden for a sunny day.

Went to the havelock after a chairboys win and had some lovely Thai food, only served Saturdays and Thursdays. Wonderful food and great atmosphere, go to this pub!

In for Friday lunch, first time since covid. Staff friendly and efficient. Beer as good as ever. Had the steak and kidney pud, absolutely gorgeous. Be back soon. Yeti.

Gorgeous minted lamb shank sunday roast

Lovely,Friendly atmosphere nice pint .Went for Sunday lunch ,Proper food, Real roasties, none of the fake deep fried one's. The veg was cooked to perfection, My wife had the Beef and I had the Chicken,plenty of both,can not find fault .DEFINITELY RECOMMEND. Thanks for a lovely experience.

Friendly welcome, great landlord,staff,. Ales , customers,. And food

More than a 'local' pub. Great family run pub with awesome food and great staff. Could not reccomend it more for a pint after a walk in the Chilterns or a family gathering for a Sunday roast. Try it, you won't be disappointed.

Brilliant, this is an excellent pub with very helpful staff. We went there as a group of 8, popped the money behind the bar and sat back and relaxed. We gave a nod when we were ready for the next round and it was ready to collect each time without fail. Some of us ordered food, it arrived lovely and hot and delicious. This is one of those rare pubs where they take care of you and the banter is good. Highly recommended.

Nice quiet place to drink. Friendly clientele and Landlord.

Love this place. Friendly staff and great decor

So this is thr first birthday outside of loxkdown. You served a seriously good Sunday lunch. The portion size was out of this world. Then I am not surprised. The food 8 get has always been good Lovely local with great food

After not visiting here for a few years for a Sunday roast ,we remembered how good it used to be so thought we would visit . The service was very slow ,the roasts were ok but certainly not the high standard of how we remembered . We would of ordered dessert but with almost an hour passing with us looking at the remains of our dinners sat there we all lost our appetite ,we had to ask for the bill otherwise we could of been sat there waiting even longer ..We were all disappointed such a shame

Went with some colleagues to Pub on 5/11/2021 for meal as we thought we wanted to try some where half way between all of us. Staff were very friendly but when it came to food. one of my colleagues asked us all how is the fish fingers in his baguette were burnt on the inside as well as out! The starters that we had were ok but that apart from the drinks was the best part.

This is a gem of a pub! The food is plentiful and they serve a delicious Sunday lunch with a generous portion of meat and vegetables for a very reasonable price. There's also an extensive range of Fullers ales on draught. Full marks from me. 👍

Friendly family run pub. Cosy and efficient service. Nice happy staff. Nice place to go to for a casual drink after work

Good old fashioned pub. Not many left. Fun bar person, great pint of Guinness. 💚

Local pub, if you like drink or two will be fine. Stay away from food, cheap quality burgers, not worth your time and money.

The pub is slightly off the beaten track but it is certainly worth a visit. General Havelock helped quell the Indian Mutiny, and he was a great hero in Victorian Times. Ryan served us and we were happy with the real ale, our service and we were delighted to be able to sit outside, where there was plenty of seating and a covered area as well. The main roast dinners were priced from £9.50 to £12. Chicken, Nut Roast, Pork, Beef and Lamb Shank in mint of a Red wine sauce. Extras were Cauliflower cheese, Yorkshire Puddings and Roast Potatoes. Children’s meals were priced at £4.75 for nuggets or fish fingers, or £5.50 for a roast. The pint or two of Seafarers Ale that I had, slid down a treat. We decided not eat a desert but the apple crumble and custard looked very good.

Great local family pub, staff & management. Well kept beer and good pub grub.

Really unique old fashioned pub, friendly, great range of traditional ales(Fullers), good food and fascinating decoration. Nice sized garden with marquee and comfortable indoor seating. Car park to rear and on street parking.

Had a lovely Sunday lunch with the family, food was amazing and the service was excellent. I would definitely recommend.

Great staff, good beer and nice beer garden

Proper local pub with a good beer selection

Very friendy welcome from the staff and really good food and beers served. A good old proper pub.

Started coming here in my lunch hour with my friend from work it is our once a week treat Tasty pub grub.

Had a lovely lunch, extremely reasonable, very friendly & attentive staff, will be visiting again.

Absolutely love this little pub, it’s just down the road from my workplace so we come here often for lunches and drinks after work. The staff are always so friendly and welcoming and there’s a good atmosphere. The garden is lovely in the summer and definitely worth a visit. Drinks are reasonably priced and their food is great value for money and always really tasty. They currently have salt and pepper chicken in bbq sauce on their specials which I would definitely recommend. Overall a lovely little local pub which I love to visit regularly and would recommend to anyone in the area!

Friendly welcoming staff who provided an efficient lunchtime service. Nice calm atmosphere and food was lovely

A very nice place to drink Marc the landlord is very nice and helpful x

First time I every been there and landlord I believe called Mark welcomed us both explained the app and told us how to set it up. Very friendly pub. People were friendly to landlord was talking to his customers like they were his best mates. Toilets and garden was very clean and tidy glasses were cleared away as soon as staff saw them empty highly recommended for a local community pub well done to the landlord and his staff

OK. Real ale, good food, close to work 😁

Nice old style pub with plenty to look at and a friendly feel

Lovely, best Sunday Lunch Around

Nice pun with lots of parking and lovely beer garden.

Great pub, good selection of beers, relaxed atmosphere, good Sunday lunch👍👍

Really thoroughly impressed with this pub. Seated, ordered via the app. Drinks arrived quickly and food followed soon afterwards. Great value for money. We will definitely be back!!

Friendly staff and lovely garden

Lovely country pub ,great food,great garden.

Staff are very friendly, it's a beautiful place to visit.great covid measures in place, very peaceful and tranquil. Excited to come back.

Marc was very accommodating to our request for a last minute takeaway Sunday roast, even though we were a bit late thinking about it! We had one beef, one chicken and one minted lamb shank (undoubtedly the star of the show). Very much enjoyed by all (including two small children), obviously home cooked, top quality, value for money and delicious. Upon collection, my wife was greeted outside to save her having to leave kids in the car (and for Covid-safe reasons, of course). Would definitely recommend and will return.
