Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

What travellers are saying
- Caroline BTring, UK676 contributionsWhat a great venue, we came to see Twist and Shout, fab music by West End performer. Tickets are excellent value for money. Seating is comfortable. Volunteer ushers are really helpful. There’s a bar and seating, and free parkingWritten 6 May 2022This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Richard Richard Esq.London, UK31 contributionsMy first exposure to the products of Mad Squirrel came several years ago at a beer convention in London and I was impressed with both the simplicity of the can designs and the quality of the beer inside. And I often told myself that I would venture into Buckinghamshire and visit one of their barrooms.
That finally happened one chilly, drizzly December day in 2020. My partner wanted to check out the area ahead of possibly moving there - which she did do three months later - and also wanted to pop in to Mad Squirrel so I could try some beers and buy some to take back to London.
We felt immediately at ease there. A relatively snug barroom with a couple of large fridges all bursting with MS cans, we managed to grab a table and proceeded to drink plentifully. Well, I did, anyway. What a terrible hardship to suffer.
Andy, the jefe of the establishment was/is friendly to the locals and to out-of-towners. Very personable and with a good knowledge of craft beers - many a good chat over a cold pint has been had with him subsequently. And it's always a personal pleasure of mine to go back to Chesham and have a pint or two.
I look forward to visiting some time this summer. Cin cin.Written 23 June 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

It was rather difficult to traverse the car park and trail due to the enormous popularity of the landmark, however if you get in early it’s no problem!
I’ll be ensuring I bring my extended list of friends, family, acquaintances and colleagues to the feature, as long as they make sure to wake up early for the trip.
Thanks again to Miriam and Janet for your helpful directions!Written 19 July 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

Everything being both very old, but also clearly in use today by local people, who let you visit their church.Written 29 July 2019This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Peter BLondon, UK17 contributionsWe held a family party there with 60 guests of all ages and we cannot speak to highly of the location, the food and the service. There is plenty of space for people to sit down or move around as they wish and the BBQ lunch was excellent.
We were lucky to have a nice day and it was also possible to sit out on the patio.
The service was good throughout and tables were always cleared as and when necessary.
We'd like to thank Eric and his team for making it such a memorable occasion.Written 3 October 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

Everything from when Chesham made boots to collecting watercress. Good to see old pictures of the high street, etc so you could compare today. Sensible pricing for gifts .Written 15 July 2016This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

Beautiful building surrounded by a well maintained churchyard in a dominant and picturesque peaceful setting high above quaint Church Street. Sadly, access was unavailable to the interior but this might be possible by calling in advance of any planned visit. It is likely to be worth seeing in view of the remodelling by George Gilbert Scott in the 1860s and again by Robert Potter a century later. It is sad that so many historic church interiors cannot easily be seen. A potential tourist attraction waiting to be exploited in a little-known location?The only certain access option is to parrticipate in a service or scheduled activityWritten 1 October 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Nicholas HLondon, UK20,314 contributionsThis ancient structure dates back to before the Roman occupation of Britain and is designed with multivallate defences, being two concentric rings of earth ramparts with a gap in between, effectively a moat. The two sets of earthworks can clearly still be seen, each one is now lined with magnificent beech trees, providing a stunning view in all weathers. The ramparts still encircle all of the site, except for the southern border, where they were removed to allow houses to be built in modern times. Examples of Iron Age pottery have been found at the site and the remains three iron smelting kilns, as well as other fire hearths and a clay lined oven. There are helpful information boards at various points round the site. An astonishing piece of pre-history, remarkably well preserved for its extreme age.Written 21 April 2019This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

Heard live music and great singing.
When we had a look noticed in the alleyway a great hidden venue.
Great music and live
Good beer
And the menu… lentil curry was amazing.Written 4 November 2021This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

We were quickly besieged with geese and ducks emerging from the surrounding parkland from all directions and the large bag of feed was soon empty! Two large white geese were particularly comical when hand fed, stalking away from the others to digest their food then returning for more. Quite rightly there is a warning sign against feeding bread to wildlife because it is not a natural food, is not good for their health and encourages vermin.Written 11 November 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.
