Outside the restaurant offers a lovely scenic view of a wooded area. This also means that the pub is super for having a quick bite to eat off their reasonably priced menu, before heading onto a countryside walk into the woods for an afternoon. Aside from the nature outside, inside the building offers a warm, mature and characteristic atmosphere which would be well suited for all couples, business meals, families, or the occasional visit with your grandparents for a Sunday lunch. I would certainly recommend for others to visit this pub restaurant.

I normally don't say much, but the review which says the food is expensive is wrong. Expensive is…read morewhen you pay lots and get small low quality cheap cuts of meat and little veg. Main coarses are about £11.50, which I consider fantastic value. If you compare this to other pubs where we have paid £8.95 and had a couple of slices of fatty meat and hard nearly uncooked veg, I would rather pay the little extra and have a superior meal in excellent surrounds, try it for yourself, but remeber to book as it is very popular, must be the good food

It's got a good range of real ales available, including some guest beers that were new to me. They serve food at lunchtimes and evenings. Meals are typical. There are some nice walks to be had from this pub: use the large car park in back and do loops of varying sizes - I've done a 1-hr loop, and a 3-hr loop along the Chiltern ridgeway from here. There's also an old steam train that runs nearby: you can hear it approach if you're sitting outside. Very friendly staff.

We took a chance . Wow we're glad we did. It is tucked away in Chinnor, along a very narrow country lane that brings you to the High Street and then the pub. It is stunning from outside and the ambiance and decor inside envelopes you in the years gone by country pub of legend. Only locals here , except us. As soon as we arrived, complete strangers greeted us warmly. We stepped through the door and Coco the owners friendly dog came up to us and said "hello". Lots of local English Bitter on tap and the usual lagers. The menu is compact but it all looked good. The nachos as an appetizer were huge and scrumptious. We both had the steak burger. The photo says a lot, but the taste ! It should be called "wow" Burger. Delicious, The fries ? Best we've had in Britain! Like Gin ? There is a huge list to choose from. The owner and the chef are Polish. This influenced the menu - we had the Polish Apple Cake with vanilla ice cream and did not disappoint. The Shepherds Crook is off the beaten track but is a definite "destination pub" . 5 stars all the way.
