Travelled all the way here to enjoy a pint of Hook Norton beer - 20 or more years since the last pint when I lived in the Cotswolds. This is a true village pub in the truest of senses - no bells or whistles. Not even sure if they do food.

Fantastic country pub just down the road from a certain atmosphere-less hotel. 2 fires on the go... good selection of drinks including ales too and one of the best pizzas I have had in a LONG time. Would definitely recommend the walk down to visit this absolute gem.

One of dying breed. Nice country pub, firebin wintwr, lovely beer garden in summer, free house choice of beers and ales with standard favourites plus some nice rotations... and without the usual chain dross. Nice quirk of having a wood fired pizza oven in the garden offering really tasty 'made to order' rather than 'hauled from freezer' pizzas.

This is a gem. A 600 year old pub located by the village church, the friendly staff serve good beer and really excellent pizza. It is a proper pub with character which has not been turned into a restaurant or gastro pub. The pizza is from a van in the lovely garden - a really good pub. Highly recommended.

A fantastic local - the real heart of the village. This pub has been through a lot in the last decade - the previous landlord ran it into the ground trying to turn it into a London style organic pizzetta restaurant with ridiculous prices and offensive service. Lewis and Tia have been absolute life savers and along with the help of the village have transformed the pub into something very special. There is a great atmosphere, along with a varied selection of beers and spirits. Ales and Gin’s in particular. ‘Luigi’s pizza’ has been a great hit and will tempt you whenever one is delivered to another table! I’ve been coming here for 10 years - and it’s the best it’s ever been!

What a great little pub. So many pubs now have been refurbished and end up feeling sterile. This place is well looked after but still feels like a traditional pub. The selection of beer was good and there was a nice friendly atmosphere. I went on a Wednesday evening and they got the dart board out so looks like there are activities some days as well. There is an outdoor space which looks great but I went on a cold February evening so can't say too much about it. A great place if you are looking for a drink in a traditional setting. It looks like they do pizza some times but there isn't food so don't turn up for dinner. Also it's seems to shut at 10pm.

Popped in on a Saturday evening for a couple of drinks as a couple, and also ordered from the Pizza menu at the bar. The staff were really friendly and inviting, the drinks were good, and the pizza was freshly made so tastes great. It’s a relatively small pub with a local but welcoming feel in an old building with lots of character. Definitely worth popping in for a drink.

This is my local pub. I think the atmosphere is great largely due to the fact that it is not a restaurant pub. The pop up pizza is simple and really good eating and the fish and chip van also visits. It is a real pub where people mix mingle and chat without having to ‘be seated’ restaurant style.

What a lovely pub! Being disappointed with our hotel dining up the road we took a taxi here. We were aware that the only food available was pizza but that was fine. As soon as we walked in we felt welcomed everyone was so cheery and friendly. We had reserved a table but it was not necessary The beers and drinks were varied and lovely. We were served at the table by attentive staff. The pizzas were the best ever. Freshly made in a wagon in the garden. Very reasonable price too. We had a fair few drinks over the few hours we were there. We called a taxi ( Skyline Cabs) and was informed it would be 30-45 mins. The lady at the pub said she would have taken us back to the hotel! How nice was that. We got our drinks and imediately got a Whatsapp informing us the taxi was due in 1 min! No mater we cancelled him and rebooked in order to finish our drinks. Again it came swiftly and with a Whatsapp message and map of its progress. No complaints with Skyline. All in all a lovely evening was had. Recommended.

Although it's over twenty years since i left the village, i still have family and close friends there, so get to visit frequently. The transformation of this delightful pub by the villagers, after it's brief ruination, is nothing short of remarkable. It has since been taken on by very competent landlords who recognised it's potential and have been busy turning it into a little gem. The food's varied and tasty, the beer's great and the atmosphere friendly and inviting. Wouldn't it be great if every village had one of these!

Having known this particular pub for many years I was excited to visit again after the recent renovations, sadly I was very disappointed with the layout and poor furnishings. The small bar area is towards the rear of the pub, which easily becomes crowded with people sat or stood at the bar, instantly you feel uncomfortable having to ask for space to get served. The furniture was very basic kitchen wooden chairs, painted in various pastel colours and plain pine tables, the general paint scheme to the walls was white and grey leading to a cold unfriendly feeling. Features like old beams had been painted over and a small electric fire placed in what was once a welcoming fire place. In short an old pub full of character has been turned into a clinical room with no atmosphere. The whole decor is more suited to a contemporary coffee shop than an old listed building public house.

Our wonderful village pub is back and better than ever! Thanks to a fantastic community effort, the pub reopened in the autumn with a stylish interior. An instant success, Lewis and Tia have now taken over the long term management, bringing some of their own tweaks and a range of fantastic plans for the next couple of months. In the meantime, the fish and chip van comes every Friday evening from about 7pm and there are street vans most Saturdays. A warm welcome from the new team, a lovely fire and atmosphere. A real destination, English pub with new thatch and oozing with charm!

After being basically closed for a few years, now (2020) it is bustling while run by village volunteers - great atmosphere while they do an enormous amount of rebuilding. While waiting for kitchen to be opened, they are bringing in food from outside - you can sense the willingness to give you a great evening and rebuild a community pub. Highly recommended.

Our waitress (think here name was Emily), was great fun and couldn’t do enough for us. Recommend eats, try the baked Camembert for starters, also try their amazing pizza (they have a pizza oven).

These guys happily hosted my daughter's "baby shower" ( don't even ask my opinions on that concept..!!) and did not demand the ridiculous minimum spend that so many other places had..The atmosphere is indeed funky and the whole set up a bit "unstructured" ( if you want structured go to one of those chain pizza restaurants in MK ) but look past that at the amazing pizza - veggie and non veggie options all excellent. Really different and tasty. My only suggestion would be to source beers / wines that are not so readily available at any large supermarket - eg beers from local Bucks breweries. I agree its a shame not to see this classic old building used as a traditional British pub with great ales / food etc but that's not an issue for here.

We are staying at the local de vere hotel and the menu looked standard and we felt like we were in the middle of 6 business meetings in the bar, we passed the shoulder on the way and went to have a look.We went in and were greeted by Ann who was super friendly and chatty. Once we ordered she quickly delivered some freshly made sourdough bread to the table. The bread was absolutely out of this world and was a little taster of what was to come!We had a margerita and the horwood hoo, both pizzas were delivered quickly and loaded with tasty organic toppings. The bases were thin and crispy, typical of those from a proper pizza oven....the BEST kind!Lee came over and had a chat with us after our meal and was most welcoming.The decor is minimalistic and fresh.Don't be guided by the tainted views of the locals, this is a hidden gem!Would definitely go back if visiting the area again.

Ignore the negative reviews, this is no longer your usual pub but a great, organic pizzeria with vegan and veg options.
