Nags Head

Lovely old pub; nice and clean friendly staff and excellent food

Characterful inn in lovely location.

Lovely pub in great setting with clean rooms. Lovely to sit in garden and have a drink. Did not eat an evening meal so can’t comment on food then but breakfast was lovely. Staff all very friendly and helpful. Would stay again

Parking good , restaurant very good, room reasonable but annoying kitchen extractor fan quite noisy and distracting late evening and early morning!

Really nice building and setting. Staff friendly and helpful,

Lovely traditional country pub with great rooms. You had the experience of a building with history, with modern rooms and comfort. There was an amazing yurt outside for al fresco dining too! Very cosy.

Unable to make tea in the room, fantastic nespresso machine but not generating water hot enough to brew tea. Food was excellent and ambience in bar/restaurant is good. En-suite needs some attention, water temperature in shower varied. Very convenient for our needs Overall, some minor improvements/ maintenance would vastly improve the experience.

Nice inn with lovely garden

Cosy character filled pub/restaurant/b &b. Stayed there a number of times. Always a warm welcome. Lovely breakfast. A particular mention for Helen who serves breakfast on a Friday morning. She is so friendly and cheerful.

Room and bathroom both compact, but generally very comfortable with useful additions such as water in the room. Bed was excellent. Shower was slightly annoying as it ran cold for one second every 10 seconds. Nice and quiet when we stayed midweek in October but I would be concerned about potential noise from any events in the teepee just outside our room in the summer. Dinner was excellent the Roast Cauliflower was awesome -so good i had it again the 2nd night. Breakfast was great and included fresh warm croissants!

We were in Great Missenden for a friends 50th and decided to stay here instead of the conference centre at Missenden Abbey and I'm so glad we did. I can't speak for the dinner as unfortunately, we arrived a bit later than we were expecting so didn't have time, which was a disappointment as the menu looked fabulous and if the breakfast is anything to go by I'm sure the quality of the food would have been amazing. Both my wife and I commented that it was the best breakfast we've ever had in a hotel, high quality ingredients cooked to perfection. The only note for improvement would be that perhaps they could have some vegetarian sausages on standby for people who don't eat meat (like my wife) However she did have the rest and they put some wilted spinach on her plate which she said was absolutely delicious. The room was a good size, the bed was comfy and everything including the bathroom was scrupulously clean. If I'm ever remotely near the area again I will definitely be staying there.

Food was exceptional. Manager was attentive and welcoming. Unfortunately room cleaning left a lot of questions. Shower glass not clean smoking debris in drawers and when using plug by bedside light carpet wall and skirtings are filthy. When mentioned to manager he seemed genuinely shocked. But I have now checked other reviews and this is previously mentioned. Shower was so difficult to turn off I nearly had to call for assistance.

The pub was very nice, with friendly staff. The meal was also very good. The room was quite basic, but comfortable specially the bed. However the bathroom tiles around the sink, and inside the mirrored cupboard where not clean splatters of toothpaste from a previous guest maybe! The sink didn’t have a plug for it, and the tap was quite loose. Our room was also above the kitchen, so the noise from the extractor was quite loud, and obviously had cooking smells in the room. Other than these minor things we had a pleasant stay.

Friendly staff lovely old building clean room

The room, and venue itself, was very clean and the bed was comfortable. There was plenty of room for our weekend bags and hanging space for our clothes. The bathroom was also very clean and the shower pressure was good. The staff were incredibly friendly and helpful, particularly the young lady who served our breakfast, and the kitchen staff kindly catered for my slightly awkward breakfast request. They were also quick to check whether I was fully vegan when I requested no meat or eggs, as the other items were to be cooked in butter. I really appreciated this attention to detail. The downstairs door (below our room) clanged heavily as other guests came upstairs, but in such an old building, I'm not sure there is much that could be done to mitigate this. But because the rest of our stay was so comfortable, we felt it was not that much of a problem, especially as it didn't continue for long. The cost is higher than we'd usually like to spend, but it felt worth the money for such a pleasant stay.

Nice location. Issues with bathroom not being cleaned and no cups for drinks, but staff were receptive when notified so this was a positive. The bins being emptied outside of room at 5am was noisy though. Breakfast was excellent

Honest reviews. Carpet was overdue a vacuum. Toilet locks broken, overflowing paper bin and hand wash dispensers strewn around and not refined to the wall mountings. Very quiet in the pub at 5pm on a bank holiday easter weekend. Meal on the evening took over an hour to be served and when it arrived it was lack-lustre and bland. A whole fish which was watery and wasn’t given any proper serving cutlery - very poor. Meal was refunded and we were given an apology. We went to room number 7 and on entering came across 2 dirty cups and saucers - not the best first impression you want on entering your room. Manager apologised and took them away but also took out spoons away so we had nothing to use for our drink the next morning. Bathroom was tiny but it was clean and had a good shower. Bed and pillows were extremely comfortable. Breakfast was over cooked (and that’s being generous). Mushrooms and scrambled eggs were overdone with butter and the bacon was cooked within an inch of its life so much so my knife wouldn’t cut through it - I thought it was jerky! Coffee was so milky I could t taste coffee - sorry team but this place has gone down in our estimation. It used to be a destination for great food which was what our weekend was about but to then be told you weren’t serving lamb on Easter Sunday, we left and didn’t stay the 2ns night we had planned. You had a lot to live up to as for some years we’d visited for the food but were sadly let down this trip

A very nice historic pub, with spacious and clean rooms. The bathroom was large and nice, as well as the breakfast being very good. I was disappointed for the price I was paying, for the TV I was provided in my room, hence the lower review

Beautiful building and really friendly staff. Our room was over the restaurant so very noisy but didn’t go on till late so didn’t really bother us. The bathroom could do with a tidy up. Black limescale in the toilet and bath and carpet a bit grubby. Breakfast was really good with a good choice and as much coffee and tea as you want. Overall a good visit.

Very convenient for bisiting our family that live locally. Breakfast was great. Comfy bed.

I stayed one night, a Tuesday, in room 5, the room itself was okay however it was located above the kitchen and smells from the kitchen found their way into the room, there was a hint of it when I checked in at about 17:00 but when I returned to the room about 21:00 the smell was quite over powering. The windows were shut so this came up through the floor, it was worse in the shower room where a section of pipe casing was missing which could have contributed to the problem. The bathroom extractor fan did not work so no chance of that helping to pull the small out. In addition, the kitchen extractor fan was noisy and ran until about 21:45, when that went off the music from the kitchen was audible and continued until about 22:15. The fan started up again about 07:30. I did report the problem of the small however they were fully booked so couldn’t relocate me. On the plus side the staff were very welcoming and the breakfast, scrambled egg and smoked salmon on toast, was very good, just as well otherwise the rating would have been lower. I think problems like this should be known about and identified by the hotel offering the accommodation, had I known in advance I would have looked elsewhere, needless to say I will not be returning.

The meals in the pub were wonderful! The bed was very comfortable. Everything was great, I wish we stayed longer.

The room was located above the bar area, overlooking the road and car park. It was unbelievably noisy. When in your room it sounds like there are twenty people standing beside the bed all have separate conversations. Once the bar closes you can then hear other guests talking in their rooms. Noise from the car park and the road can be heard very clearly even with windows closed. We didn’t sleep and checked out at 7.30. Terrible value for money at £189. Staff are incredible and can’t fault the service. Redcat need to refurbish the dated tired rooms. The shower in the bathroom goes from hot to freezing cold every 6 seconds so rendered unusable. Won’t be returning.

We were in room 1. Although, the radiators were not on , the room was far too warm. We opened the window and then had to put up with traffic noise. We discovered next morning that the boiler is in a cupboard in the bathroom which was why the room was so hot. The bed was small and uncomfortable and the pillows very hard. We had a really bad nights sleep because of the above.

We stayed in a double room (room 4). The bed was comfortable. There is only a shower in this unit. We found the heat of the shower water fluctuated, which was not ideal. The food in the restaurant was excellent. We had supper and breakfast there. The breakfast was immense! The staff were all very friendly.

Room and bathroom both compact, but generally very comfortable with useful additions such as water in the room. Bed was excellent. Shower was slightly annoying as it ran cold for one second every 10 seconds.

Great service from the very start. Made a mistake with booking, when contacting the the Inn Molly and Peter were more than kind and accommodating to correct things. Food was first rate both dinner and breakfast were delicious. One major niggle was the constant loss in water pressure in the shower causing it to go cold and then warm again and second bed was not prepared. Minor issues bathroom bin broken and bath had some damage. Service was excellent especially staff at dinner service.

Really nice building and setting. Staff friendly and helpful,

Double booked me

The Staff were on hand and nothing was too much trouble. The food was excellent . I will definitely be again.

Check in was great and very friendly staff, the room was quite noisy and there was a lot of banging late in the evening from below. The breakfast was nice but the waitress got the order incorrect. Checkout was easy using the app.

Nice location. Issues with bathroom not being cleaned and no cups for drinks, but staff were receptive when notified so this was a positive. The bins being emptied outside of room at 5am was noisy though. Breakfast was excellent

Great venue, the staff were so friendly and professional they really made our stay special.

Characterful inn in lovely location.

I can’t say enough how much we enjoyed our stay at the Nags Head. We had a wonderful time exploring Great Missenden (very easy to walk to from the Inn) & the countryside. The train into London was so easy. Our room was peaceful and a great place to come back to after a long day. The room was quiet and a a haven to get away from it all. And the breakfasts! We tried the Full English which is certainly a treat. Definitely try the fish & chips for dinner…so good!! If you want to have a true English countryside experience, check out the Nags Head.

Lovely pub in great setting with clean rooms. Lovely to sit in garden and have a drink. Did not eat an evening meal so can’t comment on food then but breakfast was lovely. Staff all very friendly and helpful. Would stay again

Really nice building and setting. Staff friendly and helpful,

Brilliant as always. Very handy base for visiting family

Nice inn with lovely garden

Perfect location to explore the South Bucks Way. Good food and excellent service

We stayed on a Sunday. I wasn’t aware that the restaurant wasn’t open in the evening due to the fact Sunday lunch is served. Not a real problem but just to make you aware. We traveled the short distance to Great Missenden and found a very nice Indian restaurant. Breakfast was really nice and couldn’t fault it.

Amazing stay, lovely staff, well appointed room, etc. Our only gripes were that it was very hot in the room - which was easily remedied by opening the window - and that there was only one vegetarian option on the menu. But it is a lovely place, and an amazing location for walks, and mooching in the town.

Fantastic breakfast. Very comfortable bed and pillows. Helen wad warm and welcoming

One of the best nights stay I have had in the Uk. The food was absolutely delicious, restaurant standard and service. The room was comfortable, clean, modern fixtures, but with country charm. The staff were excellent, friendly and helpful. I would highly recommend the Nags head and hope to go there again soon
