We are a local pub with local interests in good quality fresh food, excellent service and friendly faces. Our menu is printed every day so there is always something changing. We have a playground in our garden complete with a refurbished Massy-Ferguson tractor for the children (and adults) to play on. Behind the bar we stock an ever changing selection of cask ales from Berkshire and the surrounding counties along side a unique wine list and an extensive selection of whiskies from all over the world.

We’re absolutely delighted to celebrate Beth, who has achieved a fantastic Distinction in her Level 3 Food & Beverage Apprenticeship!

What a brilliant achievement and a real reflection of the hard work, commitment and enthusiasm Beth has shown throughout her apprenticeship. She has worked incredibly hard alongside her role in the pub, developing her knowledge, skills and confidence within the hospitality industry. We are super proud of you!!

Well done xx 🥳

As summer fades into the background, the festive season will be here before we know it!

Now is the perfect time to start planning those special December get-togethers, because the best tables have a habit of disappearing before the Christmas rush even begins!

Whether you're joining us for a festive family meal, catching up with friends over a few drinks, or bringing the team together for a Christmas celebration, we'd love to welcome you to the pub this December.

Planning a party of more than 8? Give us a call or pop in and speak to a member of our team, and we'll be happy to help you get everything arranged.

For all other bookings, you can reserve your table online!

Get ahead of the festive rush and make sure your Christmas celebrations are booked in. We can't wait to celebrate with you! 🎄

A huge thank you to everyone who joined us for our End of Summer Party on Saturday!

Although the weather wasn't quite on our side, you didn't let it stop you from having a great time, and we loved seeing so many of you enjoying the afternoon with us.

A big thank you also to Joseph James for the amazing live music.

Most of all, thank you to all of you who have supported us throughout the summer, whether you've joined us for a meal, a Sunday roast, or one of our events. You've helped make this summer a special one, and we're so grateful for your continued support.

Here's to many more good times at The Packhorse as Autumn rolls on in!

A new one for us here at The Packhorse - from Monday 5th to Saturday 10th October, we’ll be taking part in National Curry Week.

Ferdie and Prem will be busy in the kitchen creating a changing selection of curries throughout the week, taking inspiration from flavours and dishes from around the world. You can expect everything from a Malaysian Fish curry to a Sweet Potato and Aubergine Katsu curry, with plenty more to choose from along the way.

There’ll be something for different tastes, from rich and comforting curries to lighter dishes, with vegetarian options amongst the selection too. Our Daily Menu will be running alongside the Curry Week menu, so all your usual pub favourites will still be available if curry isn’t quite what you fancy.

Our National Curry Week dishes will be available at lunch and dinner throughout the week, giving you plenty of opportunities to work your way through the menu.

If you fancy seeing what Ferdie and Prem have been cooking up, you can book a table using the link below.

A little reminder that our meal tickets have a November expiry date on them, so it’s a good time right about now to have a root about in old bags, pockets, ‘that drawer’ to see if you have any that might need using up by November 19th.

Six of the meal tickets will get you £12 off a main course or light bite.

Redeemable Monday to Thursday (excluding Bank Holidays, set menus, and ticketed events).

Monthly Dog Walk – Saturday 19th September 🐾

Join us for our next friendly dog walk on Saturday 19th September.

We’ll be meeting at the pub at 10am, where you can enjoy a complimentary bacon sandwich and a cuppa before we head out together. This month we will be doing the walk to raise funds for Macmillan, so please bring some extra change and some tupperware!

From there, we’ll set off on a relaxed 3-mile walk around Mapledurham, perfect for dogs and their humans to stretch their legs, socialise, and enjoy the countryside.

The walk is completely free, but we kindly ask that you book your place in advance.

Book your spot and come along for a great morning out.
