Randomness Guide to London Menu

Pub in Chesham, owned by Punch Taverns.

The building is the original premises of the George Inn, a coaching inn established in 1715, and is Grade II listed by merit of its historic and architectural interest. The interior is traditional, with a low whitewashed ceiling and exposed black-painted beams. The floor is mostly carpeted, and the dark wood of the panelled walls is carried through to the tables and church-pew-style padded banquettes. According to the Morning Advertiser, there's a function/dining room on the first floor and a beer garden and carpark out the back.

Kake visited on a Thursday afternoon in October 2009, just a couple of days after it reopened following refurbishment and change of management. Two of the three handpumps were on, offering London Pride (£1.45/half) and Adnams Bitter.

There were about half a dozen other customers in, all clustered around the bar and engaging in friendly banter. Music was playing (Stevie Wonder etc), though not too loudly.
