Queens Head

The Queens Head goes back to the sixteenth century, when Chesham's Thomas Harding was put to death 'in the Dell going to Botley' (bottom of White Hill, Chesham). As early as 1506 Thomas Harding was in trouble with the Church 'for speaking against Idolatry and Superstition', along with his wife Alice.

Today the Queens Head is reknowned firstly for its beer (London brewers Fullers, although in 1920 Landlord John William Rock was also referred as having 'kept a bounteous cellar').

The Traditional English menu is limited because their Thai quisine requires specialist equipment and staff.

A formal restaurant is available but to get the best of the atmosphere, eat early in one of the three old bars.

Beware the mid-summer ghost - could it be Alice?
