Harden's survey result
Summary
Chef-owner Dritan and maître d’ Ranka (husband and wife) took over this country pub in the Bucks countryside in 2010. It inspired limited feedback this year, but all upbeat regarding its fairly traditional fare whose high level of aspiration makes this more a ‘restaurant in a pub’ than a gastropub.
Summary
“A lovely destination pub in the country with a high-end restaurant serving super food that’s great value, making it a fantastic find!". Chef-owner Dritan and maître d' Ranka (husband and wife) took it over in 2010 and have turned it into something of a landmark locally.
Summary
Flagstone floors, beams and an open fire ensure this sixteenth-century pub still looks the part. Run by a husband-and-wife team – chef Dritan and maître d’ Ranka – it inspires limited but all-positive feedback for its fairly traditional British menu.
For 33 years we've been curating reviews of the UK's most notable restaurant. In a typical year, diners submit over 50,000 reviews to create the most authoritative restaurant guide in the UK. Each year, the guide is re-written from scratch based on this survey (although for the 2021 edition, reviews are little changed from 2020 as no survey could run for that year).
