Chesham: Queens Head pub reopens after refurbishment

The Queens Head pub in Chesham has reopened after a nine-day makeover and change of management.

The traditional pub on Church Street welcomed punters back on Monday September 4 with around 200 customers coming in on the first day alone.

The pub’s new director and tenant Paul Marsh said: “First days have been great with some cracking feedback from the regulars loving the fact that we have kept the character but provided the face lift it deserves.”

A sneak peek inside the Fullers-owned pub revealed fresh paint and wallpapers, the outdoor seating area and freshly painted sign with the hanging flower baskets.

Other additions to the dog-friendly pub include “a couple of extra discreet TV screens and SONOS [soundsystem] throughout,” Paul said.

With a heatwave upon Buckinghamshire, the Queens Head was ready for a “great weekend even though historically it hasn’t been a summer pub,” Paul added.

The pub is still looking to fill job vacancies left empty by staff returning to university.
