Outside Dining at The Greyhound Pub
The Greyhound Pub in Beaconsfield really has become one of my favourite places and based on saturday’s visit it doesn’t take much to understand why.

This turned out to be a lovely lunch with my in laws. I say this because our welcome was not that great. Once we’d arrived and parked the car we headed towards the outside dining marquee. As we approached I was asked if I’d reserved a table and with this he alerted a lady who…… Continue reading Blue Boar Abridge

The Greenman and Courtyard
This was our first visit to the Greenman and I can honestly say that it will not be our last. Set high up in the Ongar countryside on School Road is where you’ll find the Greenman.
