Queen's Head - Chesham's Premier Heritage Pub & Restaurant
Queen's Head was founded by Paul, a hospitality professional with over 30 years of industry experience, alongside Manuel, our Operations Director. Our journey began with a vision to revive The Queens Head, a historic Grade II listed pub in Chesham dating back to 1746. Following its acquisition in August 2023, we undertook a sympathetic refurbishment to restore its character while introducing modern amenities. Today, the pub combines heritage charm with contemporary offerings, including our award-winning Thai Kitchen, premium spirits selection, and versatile event spaces.We prioritise preserving the pub's legacy while serving as a community hub for locals and visitors alike. Our commitment to quality extends to every aspect, from curated real ales to exceptional customer service. As we expand our team and explore new opportunities, our focus remains on delivering memorable experiences rooted in tradition and innovation.
