Probably the best Sunday lunch that I have had in many a year. Meat was excellent (cooked in 2 ways) and the vegetables were also delightfully cooked with evident effort to provide a range of very clear tastes. Well served too by the staff!

This was our first visit , and we’re already planning our next one! Before we even stepped inside, we were warmly greeted and welcomed. My husband was recovering from recent surgery ( which I had mentioned when confirming our booking), and a suitable table was prepared for us, with cushions to enable him to sit comfortably. This attention to detail was much appreciated. The young, friendly staff were extremely knowledgeable when discussing drinks, and especially cocktails. We were there for Sunday lunch, and although the restaurant was very busy, the service was impeccable, the food delicious, and at no time did we feel rushed . A thoroughly enjoyable experience.

Ate here as a family of 6 as we were in Old Amersham and was going to visit a coffee shop. The service was excellent and attentive. We all had the varying roasts which although at £27-28 is more on the expensive side the sides tasted absolutely gorgeous. Would say this restaurant is more of a treat. Thanks for the wonderful service. We also loved the decor and seating.

Have visited several times now with my husband and again with friends. Both food and service are exceptional. Welcomed by charming staff who communicate well and appear always available and ready to assist. Sunday lunch in particular is great with an unusual twist on vegetables which elevates from the usual Sunday fare. Gorgeous interior design/artwork and lovely ambience. Always made to feel very welcome whilst waiting for my usually late friends. Local residents are very lucky to have the Griffin on their doorstep.

I had lunch with a friend and we both had the smoked beef burger, which is not generous given that burger ingredients are in themselves not expensive...... The burgers each came on a tea-plate sized plate with a minuscule bowl of shoestring fries on the side with a small portion of mayonnaise, when the waitress brought the burger over we locked eyes and had a bit of an 'is that it?' moment. I couldn't taste any smoke on the burger and the patty itself was small and not very thick, everything was rather under-seasoned, on reflection they seem to have taken portion control to the ultimate degree which leaves you feeling like the point has been missed. The problem is that the Griffin presents itself as rather upmarket and many of the other options on the lunch menu are quite pretentious, if you are going to do a premium burger you have to do it properly, at one point I felt like checking the menu to see if they had left something off by mistake.

We had a fantastic lunch at The Griffin with delicious, well considered flavour combinations as well as warm and personable service. We had seen the lunch set menu online and they honoured this despite having stopped offering this on Saturdays a couple of weeks ago. The maitre d’ was excellent; perfectly balancing attentive service with knowledge of the menu and humour. Overall, we had a lovely leisurely meal and would happily return.

We went for valentines. The food tasted lovely but we were given a tiny amount for what we paid. We had a valentines meal there last year and had a wonderful meal so we were dissapointed by the small portions this year. It wasn’t a cheap meal. Such a shame as the place has a lovely atmosphere

Had an amazing dinner here after trying to find a table in Amersham on a Saturday night, they managed to squeeze us in at 6pm. We were absolutely blown away by the food, not expecting very much we were overwhelmed by the flavours and carefully balanced dishes that arrived, smoked trout and sea bream to start, followed by chicken kiev and halibut, the food was so good I ordered a desert (which doesn't happen often) and had the rhubarb and dark chocolate crumble. Staff were brilliant as was the wine selection. I would make a special trip to come back here and hope to do so soon - thank you Griffin for a great unexpected food experience

A friendly welcome. Ambience was nice - busy but not noisy, happy atmosphere, good background music. Lamb & beef. Two different cuts for each meat. Well-cooked, a little pink as both should be, tender & juicy meats. Veg cooked just right, tasty Hispi cabbage. Roast potatoes were phenomenal - very crispy with fluffy potato inside, skins not greasy or soft. Light & crispy Yorkshire pudding. I asked for the gravy to be served separately. Good easy-drinking carafe of red house wine (bit steep at £22?) Puds - sticky toffee pudding and choc sundae both very light, pleasing! What’s not to like?!

Behind an old facade lies a buzzing bar and restaurant that I had been wanting to visit for some time. The staff were welcoming and attentive and the ambience was just fine but the well cooked food was disappointing. Starters were fine, although the broth was too spicy, but the main course left three of us wishing we had chosen something else. The food combinations are different, the ducks leg was ok, but too big, the monkfish tail was ordinary and the thyme Kiev was not as good as one stuffed with garlic butter. We are back there soon and will choose more carefully. The restaurant deserves to thrive but I think the menu needs some thought.

Firstly the five stars are for the service, food and ambiance once we were sat at our table. The initial impression was sadly lacking. No meet and greet, no welcome .We entered via a small bar which seemed to be the reception. There was a group being served drinks in the corner and another group who said they were waiting. Eventually we were asked whether we had a reservation and were told our table was not quite ready. Not a problem except we were left to just ….wait, we could have been asked if we wanted to order drinks or peruse the menu. We felt it was an inauspicious start. Thank goodness the Sunday lunch was superb and our waitress both friendly and efficient. Please employ an engaging and approachable person to welcome guests it would make a huge difference.

Superb service, lovely atmosphere with no distracting background music, just as it should be, lovely food, current 2 courses for £18.50 is great value. looking forward to returning with our car club in March.

Our family decided they wanted a takeaway from the ‘new place’ in Great Missenden. With that they meant the Fish Bar and Mangal 😃. We can highly recommend if you are looking for friendly and fast service and delicious food prepared right in front of you. We will most certainly go back. Oh and ‘mangal’ means a Middle Eastern barbecue used to grill a variety of succulent meat and roast vegetables. Their decision to combine this with the more traditional fish and chips is really clever! So please give them a try - you will not be disappointed. We tried the chicken shish kebab, wings, spicy lamb skewer and fish and chips. Everything very yummy and decent quantity also.

Cycled past many times looked v nice so decided to pop in for a drink 2 weeks ago. Barmaid v chatty good feel about the place lighting perfect candles on nice background music. You could tell the lady working cared about the business! After this visit we decided to go back last night for a meal. So different no smile or hello when walked in 2 team working just didn’t look happy actually looked like they had fallen out. Sat at table one of them brought menu then we chose a bottle of wine which was nice and came quick. We then sat there 15 mins before getting up and asking if we ordered at the bar or were they coming over.one if them came over and took the order, food came around 30 mins later. The food was ok but pies could have been bigger with more filling. After finishing nobody came and asked if we would like a dessert in the end I had to get up and ask for the bill. We then left feeling v disappointed all round. Such a nice first visit what happened why such a let down. With prices high and pub in a small village out of the way it needs to be good every time not every other for it to survive in this tough environment. Not sure if will come back again 🤔
