Ideally situated, just across the road from Beaconsfield station, this is a spacious, shop converted micropub/craft beer bar. The interior comprises a bare boarded room with large shop style windows to the front bearing the pub's logo. There's a good amount of seating filling this space, mainly in the shape of upturned barrels with large round tops served by very comfy high stools. A couple of large Chesterfield sofas in the front left corner offer comfy alternatives beneath a series of modern art prints and a feature wall covered in fake plants where the pub's name has been spelt out in neon lights. The servery is in the rear right corner and has a timber fronted counter with a modern metal top and a bar back dominated by the taps. Seating is rounded out by a drinking ledge with high stools opposite the bar. Decor is pretty minimal, with a sticker covered guitar to one side of the bar, a TV screen to the front showing muted live football and another opposite the bar listing the beer range, which is very useful as the taps have no signage. A chilled soundtrack was playing in the background and a modest Saturday early afternoon crowd was steadily building throughout the course of my stay.
According to the TV screen by the bar, Stardust Optic and Windsor & Eton Last Drop were available on cask, although both were being dispensed from taps on the bar back, so I'm not sure how I would know that without asking. Eight craft keg options from a mix of local and well respected breweries rounded out the draught selection. The barman was very friendly and had a good long chat with me whilst serving up a perfect pint of the Optic.
I'm no expert on Beaconsfield's pub scene, but this feels like a good addition, offering something a bit different in a friendly and welcoming environment. The beer was in great shape and the keg range was interesting and varied, making this an ideal spot for a quick pre-train pint or as a base from which to explore the rest of the town's pubs.

New 'sister' bar to the original Gerrards Cross incarnation, just off the main High Street. A shop conversion, now all light, bright and woody. The bar is against the right-hand wall, with tall tables and stools the window side, some comfy seating as you enter, and some shelf seating opposite the bar itself. Some modern art on the wall as you enter and some framed vinyl opposite the bar. Behind the jump are ten taps, all unmarked, but two large screens show the current offerings, on my weeknight visit comprised of Windsor & Eton Republika, Disruption Is Brewing The Devil Wears Lager, The Kernel Bière de Saison, Great Beyond Hoxton Fresh, DEYA Makes You Think, Gravity Well Tidal Disruption Event, Verdant 40 Watt Moon, Anspach & Hobday London Black, Stardust Red Rocket and Stardust Optic. All pints north of £5 (the Kernel, only served as 2/3 was £8. Nine of the taps are keg, with a tenth (the Stardust Optic) being cask. Plumping for this (and have £5.40 removed from my person for the privilege), I was presented with a watery offering, but eventually tucked into something that was fruitly earthy, with a hop or two bubbling to the surface. There's a narrow fridge next to the bar with some crafty cans and bottles available to imbibe in-store or takeaway, plus the odd bottle of gin and 'selected wines from independent vineyards'. A smattering of tables and chairs on the pavement out front are available for al fresco drinkers.
