This was originally a Courage pub called the Flint Cottage. The interior has been more than well described below. It was quiet on my early Friday afternoon visit. The bar has ten hand pumps with a bank of fourteen (I think) "craft" keg taps behind which I didn't delve into. I had a train to catch so I didn't get to note all the beers but did see three from Rebellion, a house beer, Tring Ravensdell, Saltaire #256 and Dancing Duck Ay Up. I had a swift pint of Rebellion Jolly Roger (£3.90) which was in first class condition and happily the barman asked if I wanted a jug or a straight, I wish more of these "trendy" sort of places would do that. My only issue with this pub was the price, £3.90 for a local 4.2% beer is way too expensive. The local beers in the Falcon JDW were just as well kept at almost half the price and they have just increased them. Despite that I have no doubt that it has the widest beer selection in High Wycombe and is the only pub in town listed in the 2016 GBG.
