A characterful pub, a bit off the beaten track. L-shaped over two rooms. Real fire, low beams, some vaulting, quarry tile flooring, third length tongue and groove wood panelling painted battleship grey (would be better au naturel). Three ales on; West Berks GOB (fine), Cottage Golden Arrow (warm) and Hooky (good). All rather nice and would do again.

This is a pleasant spot well off the beaten track. A traditional two bar village pub that has been refurbished quite sympathetically with a newish looking accommodation block to the rear. They couldn't keep the paintbrush away from the wood panelling but nobody's perfect.
Thankfully none of the gastro pretensions that bedevil so many pubs in this part of the world, it's still obviously a pub with a friendly welcome and most importantly a superb choice of local beers, mainly West Berkshire and a Marlow example too, all perfect condition. My only substantial criticism would be the lack of heat. It was distinctly nippy on the evening we called.
Well worth a visit, you'll need a map or GPS if you don't know the area.
