The Hit or Miss
About
The Hit or Miss sits proudly on Penn Street, the heart of Amersham’s picturesque village, nestled beside the tranquil Penn Woods. This traditional Buckinghamshire country pub feels like a warm, unpretentious English pub with its timber beams, cosy log fire, and the scent of freshly cooked food. From the opening bell at 12 pm the pub serves a relaxed brunch menu until 3 pm, then switches to full food service until 6 pm. Every evening runs until 9 pm, with bar openings until midnight for those looking for a late‑evening pint. The venue is welcoming to families, dog‑walkers, and anyone who wants a quick bite or a hearty burger – just try the £9.99 burgers served with the classic sides, or sample the homemade veggie options. Bookings via the online “Book‑Now” portal are available and recommended for Sunday lunch, when the place can fill up fast. The pub also hosts functions, ranging from wedding receptions to corporate events, in its spacious, private rooms that cater for 15 to 150 guests, all with free parking and wheelchair access.
