The Hop Pole Inn is a cracking little pub in Aylesbury with superb real ales and a friendly vibe, though it's not without the odd hiccup here and there.
Pros and Cons
What's Great
  • Fantastic range of real ales that change regularly, making every visit feel fresh and exciting
  • Warm and welcoming atmosphere that's perfect for catching up with friends over a pint

  • A lovely beer garden that's ideal for enjoying a drink outdoors on a sunny day
Areas for Improvement

Camden Hells on draft tasted mouldy, like they hadn't cleaned in months! Nice beer garden, close to town. I left after a few chuggs of my drink because it tasted foul.
Jack Benson
This place has been approved dramatically. Always a good ale on now and the pub has more people inside. The food is great as well.
Benjamin Price
Great pub with a fantastic range of hand pulled beers. The landlord is very passionate about his beers. If you enjoy a good beer then you must visit the Hope Pole.

The King's Head is a delightful historic pub in the heart of Aylesbury, where you can soak up the medieval atmosphere over cracking local beers and tasty grub.
Pros and Cons
What's Great
  • The historic charm of this medieval inn from 1455 is absolutely captivating, making you feel like you've stepped back in time while enjoying a pint.
  • They've got a brilliant selection of local Chiltern beers and ales, with options to try tasters or share jugs – perfect for exploring new favourites.
  • The food is spot on, with hearty dishes like burgers and sandwiches that customers rave about, all served in a welcoming atmosphere.
  • The staff are friendly and proactive, always on hand to explain the drinks or help with recommendations, adding to that cosy pub vibe.
  • It's a great spot for gatherings, with function rooms, a beautiful cobbled courtyard, and even special events that make it ideal for celebrations or a quiet meal.
Areas for Improvement
  • It's tucked away down an alleyway, which can make it a bit tricky to find if you're not familiar with Aylesbury's nooks and crannies.
  • The opening hours seem a touch limited, with only five days a week, so you might have to plan around that if you're hoping for a spontaneous visit.

The Weavers is a lovely family-run pub in Aylesbury that's all about cracking food, a chilled-out atmosphere, and plenty of laughs with friends.
Pros and Cons
What's Great
  • The food here is absolutely spot on – think delicious, freshly prepared meals like those Sunday roasts that everyone raves about, all at a fair price.
  • It's got such a warm and welcoming vibe, whether you're chilling outside in the summer or cosy inside during winter, making it perfect for a relaxed catch-up.
  • The staff are brilliant; they're always friendly and go out of their way to make you feel right at home, like chatting with mates behind the bar.
  • Loads of fun things on offer, from quiz nights and live bands to karaoke and even a pool table, so there's always something to get stuck into.
  • A great range of drinks and big screens for watching the footy, which adds to the lively atmosphere without overwhelming the place.
Areas for Improvement
  • It can get a bit crowded during events or peak times, so you might have to queue for a table or find it a tad noisy if you're after a quiet pint.
  • With closing at 11 PM most nights, it might not be the spot for late-night gatherings, which could be a shame if you're in the mood for an extended evening.

The Old Millwrights Arms in Aylesbury is a cracking little pub with top-notch food, friendly vibes, and a hidden garden gem – ideal for a relaxed day out with mates.
Pros and Cons
What's Great
  • The staff are incredibly friendly and welcoming, always up for a good chat which really makes the place feel like a proper local haunt.
  • The food is spot on, especially the Sunday roasts – reviewers rave about the tasty chicken, beef, and even a scrumptious strawberry pastry, all made with local ingredients where possible.
  • It's got a relaxed and cosy atmosphere with a secret walled garden that's perfect for enjoying a pint or a meal on a sunny day.
  • The vibe is just right for casual meet-ups, whether it's a weekend lunch or a quiet evening, and it's clearly a popular spot based on the glowing feedback.
Areas for Improvement
  • Some of the dishes, like the pub tapas, seem to be ready-prepared rather than freshly made, which might disappoint if you're after something truly homemade.
  • It can be a bit quiet at times, as mentioned in a review, so if you're looking for a buzzing crowd every visit, it might not always hit the mark.
  • With no website listed, it's a tad tricky to check menus or book ahead online, which could be a hassle for planning a trip.

  • The operating hours can be a bit confusing with varying schedules, so you'd want to double-check before heading out to avoid any disappointment.

  • Some dishes have had issues, like cold and soggy chips or raw veggies, which can put a dampener on an otherwise enjoyable meal.
  • Cleanliness and tidiness could do with a bit more attention to make the place feel as polished as its views.
  • There are a few restrictions, such as no outdoor reservations and dogs only allowed in certain areas, which might limit options for some visits.

The Harrow Aylesbury

4.1(463 reviews)
82/100
The Harrow in Aylesbury is a cosy spot with warm staff and a quirky feel, boasting a solid 4.1 rating, but watch out for the occasional letdowns in food and ambiance.
Pros and Cons
What's Great
  • The staff are really friendly and attentive, making you feel welcome right from the off – it's like chatting with mates behind the bar.
  • It's got a quirky, modern interior with a mix of 60s and 70s vibes that adds a fun, nostalgic touch to the atmosphere.
  • They serve up decent beer that's in good form, and some fresh food options like burgers that come out pink and tasty, which is a nice surprise for a pub.
Areas for Improvement
  • Recent refurbishments haven't lived up to the hype, with the place feeling a bit dark and dingy, which might put you off if you're after a brighter spot.
  • Food can be inconsistent – some dishes like the chicken come out oily and lacking in flavour, so it's worth being picky with your order.
  • Service has had a few slip-ups, like getting gin in a wine glass without ice, which just doesn't hit the mark for a proper drink.

The Feathers in Aylesbury is a cracking little pub that's spot on for a relaxed drink, catching the game, or dancing to live DJs – it's got that warm, community feel that'll make you want to come back.
Pros and Cons
What's Great
  • The staff are incredibly friendly and welcoming, always up for a chat and making you feel right at home.
  • It's got a brilliant atmosphere for watching live sports like football and rugby, with HD screens and even live DJs on weekends for a proper party vibe.
  • They've got great-value drink offers, especially in their summer range, making it easy on the wallet for a night out.
  • Family-friendly until about 8 pm, with options for kids, nice food like that chicken pie everyone's raving about, and fun games like pool and darts.
  • Plenty of space outside for a smoke or a breather, and it's got a cosy spot for just relaxing with mates over a pint.
Areas for Improvement
  • It can get pretty packed on busy nights, especially with the live music and sports, so you might have to queue for a drink or struggle for a seat.
  • The music selection, while fun for some, might be a bit too loud or not everyone's cup of tea if you're after a quiet evening.
  • With moderate prices, it could feel a tad pricey if you're just popping in for a quick one, particularly compared to some other local spots.

Egg & Monkey is a charming pub in Aylesbury with some cracking features, but it's had its share of service slip-ups that might put a dampener on things.
Pros and Cons
What's Great
  • It's a lovely little pub tucked away from the hustle and bustle, making it a great spot for a quiet pint or to catch up with mates.
  • They've got TNT sports on offer, which is brilliant if you're into watching the footy or other games while enjoying a drink.
  • The food comes highly recommended from some folks – sounds like it's a real treat when it's on point.
Areas for Improvement
  • There have been a few grumbles about the service, with some saying the staff can come across as a bit rude or pushy, like pressuring for another round.
  • Allergy issues have cropped up, such as not mentioning sweeteners in drinks, which led to some unpleasant experiences and extra costs for those affected.
  • A couple of reviews mentioned feeling unwelcome, like being asked to leave if you're not buying, which doesn't make for the friendliest atmosphere.

The Horse and Jockey is a friendly Aylesbury pub with cracking food and a welcoming vibe, great for a casual meet-up, though it has the odd service slip-up.
Pros and Cons
What's Great
  • The food is generally delicious and well-cooked, with great options for families, including kids' menus and vegetarian choices, making it a top pick for a relaxed meal.
  • Staff are incredibly friendly and attentive, creating a warm, welcoming atmosphere that's perfect for catching up with mates or hosting a gathering.
  • It's got a spacious beer garden that's ideal for enjoying a drink outdoors, especially on nicer days.
  • Good value for money, with fixed-price menus and plenty of tasty dishes that leave you feeling satisfied without breaking the bank.
  • The pub's handy location near Aylesbury's attractions and easy access from the train station makes it a convenient spot for a post-explore pit stop.
Areas for Improvement
  • There can be long waits for food even when it's not too busy, which might put a dampener on your plans for a quick bite.
  • Food quality isn't always consistent, with some reports of undercooked or burnt dishes that could spoil the experience.
  • The bar area feels a bit like a walkway to the restaurant, lacking that cosy pub charm you'd hope for.
  • Low ceilings might be a hassle for taller folks, so it's worth keeping an eye out to avoid any bumps on the head.

The Bell Hotel's a welcoming spot in Aylesbury with friendly service and comfy stays, but watch out for dodgy drinks and no food on offer.
Pros and Cons
What's Great
  • The staff are absolutely lovely and always ready to lend a hand, making you feel right at home
  • Rooms are a real treat with comfy beds, powerful showers, and handy USB charging points for your phone
  • Prices can be quite reasonable, like getting a cheap pint which is a win in Aylesbury
  • Breakfast options are spot on, with tasty continental and cooked choices that start your day nicely
  • The bar has a charming, old-fashioned vibe with comfy chairs and a good selection of drinks
Areas for Improvement
  • Some drinks just don't hit the mark, like that undrinkable Peroni that's put a few off
  • It's a bit misleading as a gastro pub since they don't actually serve food, which is disappointing
  • Certain items feel overpriced, such as pints that cost more than you'd expect elsewhere
  • The place has apparently gone downhill over the years, leading to mixed experiences overall

Emperors Lounge

78/100
Emperors Lounge in Aylesbury is a bar with late-night appeal and a decent rating, but it's let down by inconsistent service and a few maintenance woes that might make you think twice.
Pros and Cons
What's Great
  • It's got late-night hours, opening around 8 PM and staying open until 2 AM most evenings, which is spot on for a relaxed evening out with friends.
  • With an overall rating of 3.9, it seems like a fair few folks still enjoy popping in for a drink and the social vibe, making it a go-to spot in Aylesbury.
Areas for Improvement
  • There are some worrying stories about the staff and security being a bit heavy-handed or dismissive, like ignoring safety concerns or getting physical without much reason.
  • The place sounds like it needs a good spruce-up, with reports of sticky furniture, wobbly tables, and even hazards like wet floors that could spoil your night.
  • Entry policies might feel unfair or inconsistent, with a couple of mentions about being turned away over minor things, which could put a damper on things.

  • The private function room is spot on for parties or celebrations, with a lovely garden area that makes events feel special
Areas for Improvement
  • Food availability can be a bit patchy, like it wasn't on until the end of June in one recent visit, which is a shame if you're after a bite
  • The overall rating hovers around 3.9, suggesting there might be the odd off day with service or consistency that could put you off
  • Opening hours and what's on offer can vary, so you might just miss out on dinner or other perks if you're not timing it right
