There is a tendency among bar staff here to place unsold glasses and carafes of white wine in the fridge and pass them off to unsuspecting customers.
Even though refrigerated if in contact with the air, white wine will soon lose its flavour and taste.
This has happened to us on a number of occasions and the wine has had to be changed by defensive and surly staff.
It seems an unneccessarily mean practice for an establishment that sets out to be upmarket and trendy with prices to match -even though it is part of a pub chain. The advice is always make sure your wine comes from a bottle or one of the casks they use.There is a tendency among bar staff here to place unsold glasses and carafes of white wine in the fridge and pass them off to unsuspecting customers.

Kings Head Harvester - Combine Harvester by teddybear

Rating: 3.00Above average premises for a harvester. The decor is nice, the layout is comfortable and seating plentiful. Good sized car park too.

Although the latest harvester menu has a number of dishes removed it still offers a good variety and very good value for money - especially the early bird menu which is now available all week.

Look to the sky as the area around Wycombe is the home to the Red Kite (bird of prey).

Service was good and friendly.

The Red Lion Knotty Green is a delightful village pub which has been at the heart of the hamlet of Knotty Green since at least 1753. Offering a warm welcome to locals and visitors alike and situated at the hub of many well-trodden ramblers' walks through the Chilterns, it's the perfect spot for a well-earned drink, superb home-cooked food, a chat and much more.

The food here is simply excellent and a visit to the pub's Enid Blyton Room - with its gallery of prints and library of books donated by the Enid Blyton Society - is a must-see. The famous children's author lived for most of her life at a house called Green Hedges nearby.
