The Potters Arms in Chiltern

I stayed in the B&B last night and was initially greeted by a very helpful young lady (sorry I didn't get your name) . Room was clean and comfortable with a comfy mattress and good quality clean pillows and bedding. Tea / coffee and biscuits were provided and the bathroom had all of the usual shampoos and both washes. I ate dinner in the bar which was delicious and competitively priced. As a lone traveller I felt safe and comfortable. Waking to the sound of the birds outside was an unexpected positive. Breakfast this morning was again delicious and served by a really friendly young lady. It would have been nice to have either some music or the news on though as it was a bit quiet. A great stay would recommend and will come again. Thank you for your hospitality.

Thank you. We celebrated my Dads passing afterwards at The Potters Arms. We booked the Afternoon Tea for the gathering with some vegan options. Everyone enjoyed the afternoon... and the food, in cosy surroundings. Easy parking, good access and helpful staff. Thank you again for all your help.

I stayed here for one night with my husband and my extended family were in the other 3 rooms, so we took over all the accomodation. We were at a wedding nearby and stayed for bed and breakfast. The rooms were clean and very pleasant with little extras like nice biscuits with the tea and coffee and the staff were lovely and friendly The breakfast was excellent. Would highly recommend. Great value for money.

I had the pleasure of staying overnight here at one of the most welcoming and hospitable places I have been too. All the staff are great and very approachable delivering fantastic customer service. The room was very clean and well presented with the full English breakfast ideal to compliment this stay. I will definitely be returning, though this time hopefully spending more time here and sample some of the other items on the menu.

What fantastic service from start to finish. The young gentleman who took care of us was exceptional! He made a simple Saturday pub dinner out into a great evening with a service and friendliness that was welcoming and perfect. We shall look forward to going there again as the food was excellent and good value as well. Thank you.

Our walking group of 9 walkers had lunch at the Potters Arms on Wednesday 7 August 2024. Food was selected from the Brunch, Sourdough and Main menu. The quality and presentation of food was excellent and proportions were generous. All enjoyed their food. This is the third walk we have led from the Potters Arms and all have worked well.

The location is lovely but the food was very disappointing. My husband’s burger was passable but my roasted veg tart with vegan feta was not good. The feta turned out to be a runny sauce covering the tart which made the pastry soggy and looked very unappetising. I could only eat a few mouthfuls. When I complained to the waitress the response was ‘ok, I’ll let the chef know’. We paid for the food in advance at the bar and there was no offer of a refund. We won’t be eating here again I’m afraid

Bit of a let down. Booked for fathers day but it was not a good experience. Had to wait to be eventually acknowledged at the door and shown to our table. Had to wait 20 minutes to have our order taken, followed by 55 minutes for starters to arrive. The mains took a further half an hour to arrive and both the roast beef and roast pork were cold and missing trimmings. The banoffee dessert didn't really taste of anything at all. Not cheap and not good. We will not be returning, sorry.

We had our wedding reception at the potters arms and everything from start to finish was excellent. Richard was always available with all planning queries and the staff did a fantastic job setting everything up, as expected. All our guests had a fantastic time, many mentioned how good the meal was. We were a small group of 26 day guests and then an extra 40 in the evening. Everyone enjoyed themselves and Richard made sure playlists were on, champagne poured and the DJ had everything he needed to get everyone dancing. The bacon rolls were also a huge hit with our evening guests. The staff was very kind and attentive. We stayed overnight, in a lovely, clean room and the included breakfast the next day was delicious and again served by lovely, caring staff. I can highly recommend to book the potters arms for celebrating a special day.

Got to be the worst roast dinner I have ever had. £30 for a roast and drink is scandalous. Carrots still had mud on them from when they was plucked last year. Gravy was about as runny as a drought. £4.50 for a pint of coke!!!!! The pub itself felt like we was in the middle of an auction. I honestly rate Aldi microwave roast dinners better! Staff had the manners of an alley cat. Won’t ever be coming back!

Myself and guest had the pie, steak and ale. There was a lot of it, had an impressive puff pastry top, but tasted fab. . Would book to eat there again. Thank you.

Disappointing meal. Meat in the pies was tough. Chicken was dry. The duck was good. We had good service, and menus quickly changed when we realised that we had different prices in different menus! We wouldn't have had a pudding but we were on a Travelzoo meal deal and decided it would be rude not to. Poached pears turned out to be soggy pears in boiling liquid, alongside a quickly melting blob of ice cream. Overall the quality of food was not good enough to temp us back, what a shame.

I ordered blackened cajun chicken. It was not blackened at all, the chicken was a rolled piece of breast with no flavour at all and quite tough. It had a splodge of rather unpleasant-tasting sauce (seemed like cheap BBQ sauce) on top. Having said that, the chips were very good, and the salad OK. The service was very poor.

We purchased a two course Travelzoo offer last year the food and service were so good we bought another two and have just returned home after and excellent lunch using our second voucher. We had the same Trio of sausages and duck leg with sticky toffee pudding to follow. Couldn't fault the food delirious and hot and even though they were really busy we didn't have to wait long. The gentleman showing us to our table and the lovely lady serving the food were welcoming and polite. We have another voucher and looking forward to returning next month for more of the same .

Leisurely Saturday lunch for 4, friendly service, everyone enjoyed their 3 courses, generous portions, we came for a Travelzoo deal but will definitely be back.

Lovely little village pub serving great, reasonably priced food. Portion sizes are great and overall the ambiance of the property is satisfactory. This was our second visit and we will be back again,

Well what a welcome at the Potters Arms, there wasn’t one. We arrived and stood at the bar waiting for someone to acknowledge us but I eventually had to attract someone’s attention. We were on a Travelzoo deal. We were eventually shown to a table in the “restaurant” and served our Prosecco. I asked if I could exchange mine for a half of beer but was told no. Starters were ok, but it all went Pete Tong with the mains. I had Steak and Ale pie which looked lovely but was stone cold, and I mean straight out of the fridge! It was quickly reheated and wasn’t that bad but how on earth can a “chef” send out a stone cold meal in the first place. My wife’s fish again was ok, what there was of it hidden in the batter. The waitresses were lovely and tried there best, and offered us a free dessert, but the damage was done. There was absolutely no atmosphere in the place and the Manager never showed his face. I can see why they use deals to get people in there.

We were a party of 6 and we all had the most enjoyable first time at The Potters Arms. The food from the starters through to desserts were all incredibly tasty and the service was wonderfully polite and friendly. We will definitely be coming back again and again.

We were a table of 7. Everyone of us thoroughly enjoyed our Sunday roasts. A big thank you to you all. Looking forward to our next visit in May. ( We live on the Isle of Wight)

One of the best pub lunches I’ve had in a long time . Staff lovely food outstanding . Cant wait to try their Sunday lunch

Mediocre and slow service sadly. The food was either far too strong in flavour (chicken wings were ridiculously spicy) or completely bland. The desserts were good.

Fantastic stay overnight the food was excellent and super breakfast

Really nice. We made a last minute booking for Sunday lunch and were really pleased with our choice. The staff were lovely and food was good. Roast potatoes were a highpoint - usually this is where pub lunches aren't as good as at home but these were very good.

We had a lovely lunch at The Potters on Sunday. The curry of the day never disappoints and yesterday’s Pork Katsu curry was no exception. The staff are always so friendly and welcoming too and they were very attentive.

Very friendly welcoming pub, we have visited several times and have never been disappointed. We had the Sunday Roast which was very good plenty of meat, veg and potatoes. Would highly recommend.

Lovely food and staff very attentive. A little bit noisy at times but maybe it was the time of day. Would visit again.

Good quality pub grub, served by friendly staff. Nice atmosphere

Great village pub! Good food, good staff, good value.

Ambience and food choice good,. Pork cracking excellent, but strange taste musty with the broccoli.

Been number of times to eat but the Christmas main course was not that good

Have visited before in the evening. Service has been good and food good. Would recommend visiting.

Had a starter and a side as mains were expensive. Had fish cake, which was altered to crab cake, looked deep fried and was tiny, for £10 with sad looking salad. Had a portion of vegetables which were virtually inedible as so hard. Friend had a panini, which was “5 out of ten”.

Lovely old pub with modern, spacious interior in a beautiful village setting. Great food, attentive staff - all in all a very enjoyable lunch.

This is the third time we have visited The Potters Arms in the last couple of months. Each time we have all been very pleased with the food, service and ambience.

Lovely food and service. Would recommend for a brunch

The welcome and service were excellent and the Sunday roasts were delicious and plentiful at a fair price. The only slight downside was that the dining room was cold on a very miserable and cold day. Would definitely recommend this pub and we shall go again.

Welcoming, ambience good, lovely food just a little expensive.

Had a meal whilst we’d hired out half of bar & outside area for son’s 18th birthday. Food delicious, service great. Would definitely recommend. If you’re looking to hire somewhere for an event / birthday etc, this is the perfect place.

Food good. Service friendly and efficient. Would recommend

The food was really good, and good value for money. The waitresses were charming and helpful. We will be back on Monday!

This is a really nice pub, would definitely go again

We have been to the Potters Arms several times in the last decade and went there on the spur of the moment on Sunday 19/11/23 expecting ( as every time previously) good food . Unfortunately, for some reason, it was so poor it bordered on inedible. My wife managed to slowly eat hers but I am afraid I just left mine ( the "Sunday Lunch") on the plate having only eaten about 10% of it. Despite that, when the plate was collected I was not asked for any feedback (mainly I guess because it was obvious what my response would be ) . Needless to say that will be our last visit to the Potters Arms.

First time at The Potters Arms and we weren't disappointed. A lovely pub/restaurant with a welcoming/friendly team and an an excellent choice of food, especially for a Sunday lunchtime. The food was plentiful and of an excellent standard, and service was spot on - overall very good value and would highly recommend. Thanks to all of the team at The Potters Arms for an enjoyable Sunday lunch, we'll definitely be returning at some point soon.

Excerllent choice on menu. Friendly staff who were very timely in their attention. A great venue!

We visited Monday lunchtime, so the pub was pretty quiet. Modern, clean, and pleasant environment. Staff were very helpful and pleasant. Food was ery good quality, as usual. Menu is NOT the frequent dull, unimaginative fare you get in "chain pubs". Instead, there is a good variety of dishes, with a more "local" hint. One of my favourite pubs !!

As a local resident the best roast lunch ever! Amazing.

Very peasant place to stay. Easy check in. Very comfortable room with everything required Food good, with plenty of choices. Friendly helpful staff. Would use again

We were a group of ten cycling friends who arrived at 1.15 on a Sunday lunchtime. The staff were very friendly and worked quickly and effectively to serve us during a busy session. They were aisles well set up to allow us to split the bill and pay separately!

We were at The Potters Arms on an evening when there was a power cut. Despite this, every effort was made to produce food which turned out to be excellent. We would love to go back on an evening when things are more normal, but full marks to the staff for coping so well.

The service was excellent. The food was delicious. We had two children in our party and they were well catered for. We had never been to The Potter’s Arms before but I’m sure it won’t be long until our next visit.

We had Sunday lunch there me and my fiance. The meal we couldn't fault it was lovely . Friendly staff ,atmosphere was great. Would defo go back .

Good food and choice of drinks in a nice busy pub.

Really good food freshly prepared and preset by a chef who knows very well what he/ she is doing. Friendly and welcoming place. Which is why we go back .

All went well at dinner. Food very good and sevice very good. Robin

The three of us were most impressed with the Potters and not for the first time. The food was excellent and we were unhurried during the three hours over lunch. It is a gem.

We have visited the Potter's Arms several times and have always had a very positive experience: Great food and drink at reasonable prices and very genuinely helpful staff, who seem to gel very well together as a team. We look forward to our next visit!

Celebrated my Dad’s 80th with a delicious lunch. Food was great - nice and spicy Thai red curry and an impressive vegan wellington (refreshing to have something different as a vegan option). The staff were very friendly, service was excellent and they made a fuss of my Dad for his birthday - will definitely return. Thank you!

Had a Sunday roast for 14 people on Sunday. Food was excellent as usual, smiling and happy staff all around. Keep up the great food and service.

Myself and wife visited the Potter's Arms for a Sunday roast. Online they are advertising a deal for 2 or 3 course meal, when I enquired with the waiter I was informed that it was no longer the case. We both opted for beef, which was beautifully cooked. The roast potatoes were nice as was the parsnip. We like our veg to have a little bite but the small accompanying bowl of cabbage, green beans were really quite under cooked. The huge Yorkshire pudding looked the business but was very over cooked making it rock hard and inedible, gutted! The staff were very polite and attentive, but the food was disappointing.

Service and staff very good along with excellent food and beer.

We came for my husband’s birthday. Lovely food. Helpful, friendly bar staff. Everyone enjoyed their food.

Good food and nice staff, nice village pub very peaceful

The Potters Arms is a local gem. The staff is friendly and attentive. The remodelled out door seating, landscaping and farm shop are fantastic. The pub comes highly recommended by the locals with delicious food and a menu that caters for a variety of diets. You must experience the pub and local walks. You won’t be disappointed.

Lovely food, lovely atmosphere. Thoroughly recommend The Potters Arms.

Good meal, excellent value, lovely place to go to. Recommend

Nice food and great staff. There were 10.of us and it was really enjoyable.

Great food, service, nothing is too much, my only complaint would be I’d like to put my own gravy on my roast, which I will remember for next time, puddings are huge so easily shareable so great value, highly recommended.

Really great service and a fantastic roast dinner! We will definitely be returning soon. Polite, friendly and courteous staff really do make this a lovely afternoon to eat and drink out at.

Very quiet but food was excellent and simple dishes well cooked and served. Steamed veg was lovely and even catered for a very fussy eater. Puddings were good and generous. Good beers on tap and great ambience of a traditional pub.

Amazing roast dinner, was a big portion, couldn't even manage dessert afterwards. But a bit too much gravy, would have preferred it in a gravy jug on the side.

Great food, clean pub, we went for breakfast really good selection on the menu, service as always friendly but not intrusive, all arrived in good time piping hot and absolutely 😋

The food was excellent, steaks cooked as ordered. Attentive friendly service with a smile. Good atmosphere. Looking forward to going back.

We go there quite a lot but prices have rocketed. Small portion of Fush and Chips which used to be £7.95 is now £14!!!! So not impressed. Apparently the normal sized F&C is £18 - shocking.

Excellent value, friendly service and will return again.

Food was very average. Small portions for starters, big portions for mains but not enjoyable. Veg cold, mash cold, gravy was like water (literally running off the plate)

A nice pub but the food and service were very average . Just didn't seem very friendly or welcoming . Also a very loud unruly group were in the small restaurant for Saturday lunch . So we moved out into the main bar area . Shouting a swearing is not a good ambience for eating . Shame the weather was not better as the outside area looks quite nice .

The food was excellent. The supper club menu was very good value. The server could not have been more helpful and friendly. Best meal out we have had for ages! We will be going back.

We booked a table outside for lunch, but on arrival the weather was a bit cooler than expected so we asked to change for a table inside and the staff quickly accommodated and made up a table for us. Service was attentive and friendly, and food was very nice (everyone cleared their plate). Will come again.

Apart from being ignored on arrival the server, who was overworked, did an excellent job. There appeared to be no management around and would not travel there again.

Had a lovely lunch at the Potters,Manager and Lauren were excellent in there service.😎

The Sunday roast was disappointing this time. Less meat than in the past and standard of vegetables was not what it was.

Great selection on the menu, something for everyone and all delicious! we were a table of 7 and I can't fault the service. The pub is in a lovely setting with a large outdoor space and a shop. Would definitely visit again

The food was good and plentiful. My pork crackling would have broken the strongest teeth. I would also suggest that Yorkshire puddings are optional. The service was excellent and friendly. When my glass was knocked over by the menu, due to windy conditions, the young waiter was there immediately with a cloth and replacement wine. I was most impressed.

Delicious food in a lovely atmosphere. The vegetarian Wellington was particularly excellent, as was the asparagus starter. Very highly recommended

Fabulous gastronomy pub. Comprehensive menu, really spoilt for choice. We thoroughly enjoyed our dinner and wish we had a local pub equivalent.

The evening was an unexpected pleasure. The service from the bar staff was friendly and efficient. The chef came out of the kitchen to talk to the customers at least three times whilst I was there, including myself. I mentioned the exceptional peas (don’t laugh) he grows them himself! They were fresh. I had the good fortune to chat with the locals who really appreciated their pub and especially their chef!

Never been to the Potters Arms before but looking at the menu there was a good selection of choice. Unfortunately, our starters came to the table nearly after an hour of being seated. We ordered two starters, the king Prawns which unfortunately were over cooked. Calamari was nice. I ordered the Duck for my main course, the veg was served cold and the meat was bland. We had also been forgotten about when it came to cutlery and serviettes, and had to request these. Unfortunately, I had no option but to send my main back as it was not something i was prepared to eat and pay the price for (£19.95). The waitress was lovely and polite and asked if there was anything she could do. I asked if it were possible to have another glass of wine and apologised that I wouldn’t be ordering anything else (I told her I didn’t expect that to be deducted from the bill). 20 mins later she put the bill on the table and walked off. She had forgotten I had ordered a second glass of wine. They had deducted the main course and not included service charge which I was glad about as the overall experience wasn’t great.

I love this pub so was a bit disappointed with our recent visit. Service was slow, we had to ask for drinks instead of being offered when there were lots of staff that looked available. The food came out at different times (we got someone else’s starter by mistake which meant my son finished his starter 10 mins before we got ours), one meal was wrong so got sent back (which meant we were one meal missing for 5 mins when everyone else had theirs). When the Mac n cheese came out it was watery/greasy in the bottom of the dish. All other food was nice and tasty and the staff were friendly as always,

Lovely day and will definitely be back. I’ve told my friends

Lovely setting. Service slow to take drinks order food arrived very average waitress never came back to see if food was ok or if we needed more drinks. Will not hurry back.

Very good meal all round. We had a main course pie which was excellent. Thoroughly enjoyed our visit.

Beautiful pub with lovely views of the green and village. We sat outside and ordered two panini's a couple of drinks each and a starter. It came to £65 and we had to go in to check where our food was. The paninis were very average and not worth the £10 it cost each. Although it's a beautiful pub, I'm not sure we'll be going back in a rush because it was so expensive and the service was so slow.

Big Bbq party on the evening we went, maybe usual chef was busy, but food not upto usual standard, and menu was lacking. 4 different mains delivered...fish cakes were burnt, coq au vin chicken v pink, gammon & chips where gammon was like ham and caesar salad with mayo instead of caesar dressing. Should have complained on the night but they were obviously over busy with the party.

We have been to this pub before and always found the food, ambience and service outstanding. However, this visit proved very different. It was a warm summer's evening and the pub was buzzing with guests and a private party. On entering a child just pushed by me nearly sending me tumbling to the floor. I add here my walking is not to good. On entering the restaurant there was nobody to greet us. One barman did notice me standing there but ignored me. The next time he appeared I asked if I was invisible as he had not offered to help. He then said he would be back to help but then thankfully the tall waitress showed me to our table. The only gripe about the food was that all courses were great apart from my coq au van. The chicken breast was red with blood inside and I was glad my loo was the first door on the right when I got home!! Other diners and us were troubled by the guests of the private party, not the music but the constant screaming of their kids. What happened to parental control? I spent including service £126.00 and left rather disappointed.

Staff were welcoming and friendly, maybe a little short of staff as things took a while. Food was OK, 3 fish and chips (batter was a little weird) 1 Coq au vin (chicken was a little tough, maybe had been frozen and reheated). All edible but nothing Wow. Would definitely try again and order differently. Lovely setting and we sat outside as it was a lovely day.

A spontaneous lunch enjoyed by my teenage daughter, husband and myself. Excellent varied menu to cater for specific tastes. Staff were super friendly. A very warm friendly pub with excellent food. We will come again for sure.

A very enjoyable lunch with friends, lovely food and very friendly staff!

Fantastic food and service -,exactly what a country pub should be like!

Staff were friendly and gracious despite the pub being packed on a bank holiday lunchtime. Service was a little slow as a result but food was good, hearty fare and excellent value. We'll be back!

We have lived in Wycombe for the last 40 years and didn't even know the pub existed. So a search on Google gave us a choice of 4 in the area. So for a monthly outing with friends we tried it. It was beautifully laid out and the food was most enjoyable as was the beer. What a find we will certainly give it another visit.
