The Squirrel at Penn Street occupies a fine position on the village green, with Penn Wood directly opposite and the gentle light of Chilterns beechwood country all around. Leather sofas, log fires, a large beer garden and a children’s playground make it a natural Sunday lunch destination for families in the area, and the kitchen’s handling of the Sunday roast — generous portions, well-sourced ingredients — has built a devoted following. The gluten-free menu is managed carefully, and the landlord’s warmth towards new faces is as genuine as the welcome he extends to regulars.
For a classic Chilterns village pub in a setting of genuine beauty, The Squirrel at Penn Street delivers every time.
