Welcome to the Bedford Arms

Tucked away in the Chilterns, the Bedford Arms is made for slow afternoons, great food and drinks that turn into evenings. Think seasonal dishes, rosé in the sunshine and a place to pause, unwind and stay a little longer.

Food & Drink

Our seasonal, classic dishes change as much as the British weather and are inspired by our wonderful Hertfordshire countryside setting.

Our Menus
Stay a Little Longer

Summer Spritz

Sunshine, spritz, and space to settle in. Our seriously-sippable menu is full of summer flavours - from rosé and raspberry to citrus-packed picantes. Find your spot in the garden and let the afternoon drift by (we won’t judge).

A traditional pub with bedrooms in the Chilterns

Nestled in the heart of the Chilterns, straddling the border of Buckinghamshire and Hertfordshire, we’re not just a pub – we’re a part of the Chenies village history, dating back to the 15th-century.

A cherished spot for locals celebrating everything from birthdays to a celebration of life, we are more than a pub – we are a place for everyone to come together. And with 15 cosy bedrooms, you won’t have to venture far for a good nights kip.

Our chefs have crafted a menu of delectable dishes, showcasing the best of British seasonal ingredients. Pair them with a decadent wine from our extensive list or your favourite pint for the perfect experience.

Long Lunches & Light Sips

Summers just work here, find your spot (sun if you’re lucky, shade if you’re sensible), and settle in with something chilled in hand. Our spritzes are made for exactly that – fresh, vibrant, and quietly indulgent, with fruity little numbers and citrusy favourites that are very easy to go back to.

Out in the garden, under the trees or stretched out in the sunshine, it’s the kind of place you lose a few hours without really noticing (as it should be).
