Beautiful restaurant. Staff are experience and great at what they do. Good selection of wines, varying in prices. Pea and lettuce soup is really tasty and the lamb also very good. I’ve been here quite a few times and I’m never disappointed

Great food with an interesting selection. Attentive and professional staff. The restaurant has a subtle ambience and in this day and age, tablecloths add to the quality. Ranka and Dritan offer a quality experience. The best food for miles around.

The cocktails were very moreish and the service was personal and relaxed!Thank you so much we will be back!

The Artichoke Restaurant

An award winning dining destination in the centre of beautiful old Amersham, the Artichoke restaurant has been tipped for the top by critics, chefs (including Raymond Blanc) and, rather impressively, the Michelin Guide 2011. The traditional setting of Art

This was our fourteenth visit in the last three years to the Artichoke and in that time have become good friends with owners Laurie , Jackie and head chef Ben. So therefore when the announcement came on Monday 7th October that they they had finally earned the distinctive honour of holding a Michelin Star ⭐️ I couldn't have been more pleased. The food here has been so consistent and we've even noticed that on our last three or four visits this has definitely risen to the next level. The imagination and creativity using excellent local produce in order to put these fabulous dishes in front of their customers is amazing. Their front of house team has also been very good over the years which is now under the leadership of manager Jerek. Once we heard the exciting news we really couldn't wait to pay another visit and luckily that happened to be yesterday. So on a nice bright saturday we headed from east to west and enjoy another nice afternoon in the lovely little town of Amersham. As soon as we entered the restaurant you could still clearly see that everyone was still on a high from receiving the fantastic news. So after our nice friendly welcome we was escorted to our table in front of the fabulous wine rack which obviously used to be a fireplace. While we were given the menus to look through they poured us a glass of complimentary champagne as part of them celebrating the achievement with their customers. There are five menus to choose from the Lunch , A la Carte , Lunch Tasting Menu and a short six course and long eight course Tasting Menus. We decided to choose the eight course tasting menu as since it had been a few months since our last visit all the dishes were new.
We started with the fabulous Chiltern Black Ale Bread which this time came with a Bee Pollen Butter. This was followed by a delightful little Amuse Bouche of Taramasalata , Cucumber & Kohlrabi to cleanse the palate before we moved onto our first course a Seafood Ravioli with Pumpkin Veloute & Sea Herbs. The next course was definitely one of the highlights a Truffle Choux Bun with Lincolnshire Poacher , Cep Ketchup & Salsify and with the mixture of hot and cold this dish was stunning. We then moved on to our next course of Pan Fried Duck Liver which together with Poached Quince & Spiced Bread was a little taste sensation. This was followed by the Atlantic Halibut with Squid , Mussels , Seaweed and a beautiful Shellfish Miso Now it was time for the main course to which their is a choice of two a Venison Saddle smoked with Douglas Fir and served alongside Venison Salami , Beef Dripping Potato , Red Cabbage & Beetroot and the other a Chalgrove Estate Partridge with a Black Pudding Tartlet , Morteau Sausage & Golden Raisins. Both dishes were amazing but I have to say my choice of the Partridge was without doubt the highlight of the day. During our little rest before we moved onto the next course it was nice of Laurie & Ben to come over for a quick chat and therefore gave us the opportunity to personally congratulate them on their prestigious award. Now we moved onto the cheese course a delightful little combination a Panna Cotta of Blue Murder with Roasted Walnuts , Black Figs , Apple & Celery. This led us onto a delicious palate cleanser of Poire William Sorbet with Poached & Pressed Pear a mixed seed Tuille & Vanilla Cream Cheese. Now it was time for dessert which was a very good Blackberry Baba with Somerset Apple , Brandy Ice Cream & Sorrel. This was paired with a Familia Castano Dulce Monastrell sweet wine with flavours of Plum Jam & Dried Figs which was nice & light and therefore a perfect match. We then finished with a coffee & Petit Fours to end a fantastic lunch. So another fabulous lunch at the Artichoke is brought to and one in which I'm looking forward to repeating again in the near future. It really is worth making the the trip to this great little town of Amersham and enjoy for yourself a fantastic dining experience at this amazing restaurant. Even if you can't make it for lunch you could stay overnight in one of the hotels on the opposite side of the road.
Congratulations once again to all the team at the Artichoke on receiving a Michelin Star

Hit or Miss

300-year old traditional Country Pub / Restaurant in beautiful picturesque olde worlde English village. Wisteria round the door, wooden and carpetted floors, real log fires, original beams. Private areas available for functions.

Reviewed By Badgerisimus

Have been here quite a few times over the years and always found it to be excellent. It's a proper pub that does good food. It's also a Hall & Woodhouse pub which lends its credentials to both the beer and the standard of the place.Good choice of pub food(including a roast of the day sandwich) with a wider a la carte choice as well.Quite a popular pub so worth booking for an evening meal. The only slight downside is its reputation as a very good place to hold a wake as i Amersham Crem's only a couple of miles away. This means that lunchtime tables can be hard to find if there's a wake on.However, the staff are always very helpful and we've never had a problem. In the summer, there's always outside as well.Thanks for taking the time to review your experience at The Hit or Miss, glad to know you feel we are a "proper pub"! We're also glad you think we have a good choice of food and you find the staff helpful. As you noted we are a popular pub so definitely worth booking a table day or evening. We are also a popular venue for wakes with the crematorium being nearby, these are usually held midweek and do not usually impair enjoyment for other diners as they are held in our private function area and although busy, we can always accommodate our regular diners. Thanks once again and please visit again soon…

La Petite Auberge

Reviewed By 1Row

Having read the reviews our expectations were relatively high. However, we suffered disappointment on every front (save that the wine list was OK). We visited on a Saturday night with friends. The place was full (although it has a very small number of covers) which ought to be a good sign. The premises are gloomy and dated and are devoid of any character. It would take so little effort to give it a lick of paint, put some interesting pictures on the walls and replace the dreadful net curtain at the front window. The food was distinctly average and poorly presented for the most part. The service was about as charmless as it is possible to get. No warmth, no feeling of welcome and I don't think we saw a smile all evening. I get that some people (quite a lot in fact) seem to find this place charming but I just didn't get it. I am surprised that in today's environment this place has survived ...

Night out with sister and the most amazing tapas. Their cocktails were pretty fab too - my Mojito was beautiful! We had flatbread to start followed by halloumi, patatas bravas, scallops and tempura vegetables. All beautifully cooked to perfection and all had their own flavour which complimented each other. Lovely waiting staff and a great atmosphere even for a Monday night. Would highly recommend.
