Located just off the High Street and almost opposite the bell-turreted and open-arched Market House, this is still a Greene King pub, and internal descriptions in previous reviews remain true, albeit there's a patio 'garden' out back. Of four handpumps, just one was clipped – a good enough Morland Original, at £4.30 for a pint. A cursory tick if visiting PR; it's at least handy by virtue of being next to the local chippy and opposite a very excellent Indian restaurant.

A Greene King town pub on the high street. The interior, a single L-shaped bar with a massive chimney breast, is as described by Steve, below, while a cage full of gin bottles has been added. Basic pub grub is served, eaten either at the dining tables or in the comfy seats. Ales on were Abbott, Moreland Original and Speckled Hen, none of them in good condition and not that enjoyable. I can’t see my rushing back as the beer lets it down.

The Whiteleaf Cross was renovated into a pub in the late 1970′s after being used for some time as a wine merchants in the high street. Comfortable enough internal space which looked like it was multiple rooms in the past but now one wood floored low beamed ceiling open space with a couple of separated areas, one around the large fireplace and one with a dart board built in and then a larger area with wooden bench tables. 3 Screens dotted around for the sport and Rugby is regularly shown as this seems to be the home for Princes Risborough RFC. Then there is a small heated patio area outback primarily for the smokers. A GK house there are three real ale pumps on the bar which included Morlands Original and Abbot Ale but fortunately a proper guest ale in the form of Coach House Brewery Honeypot.
