The location in Amersham is no different. Individuals tend to gather after a day at work or after getting off the tube to meet up before heading home. While not exactly a traditional pub, they offer a wide selection of beers, along with a recent addition of small batch spirits and wine. I haven't sampled the pizza myself, but it smells fantastic. The atmosphere is wonderful, and with ample communal tables both inside and outside, it's easy to strike up a conversation with fellow patrons. I highly recommend this spot.

This new pub chain offers fantastic beers and delicious pizza. The staff is friendly and provides excellent service in a great location. read more This new pub chain offers fantastic beers and delicious pizza. The staff is friendly and provides excellent service in a great location.

Nothing better than strolling up the hill on a Saturday lunchtime to enjoy a bit of shopping followed by a pint of beer from an excellent selection and a crispy pizza. The choice of beers and ciders, to drink in or takeaway, is mind-boggling. I had the Ruby Tuesday cider on our last visit. There is a great selection of gins too.The food selection is limited to pizzas (and garlic bread). Mr M always has Roadchilli (tomato sauce, cheese, chorizo, sweet pickled onions, jalapenos). I love the Sumo (tomato sauce, cheese, chicken, roasted peppers, mushrooms, pine nuts and rocket with peri-peri or jerk sauce). This was very spicy, with good quality chicken, and a fine crispy pizza base. Mad Squirrel is a great addition to the Amersham food scene and well worth a visit for a relaxing couple of hours. If the sun's shining sit outside with the locals and enjoy the sizzling atmosphere. Even better if there's live music.
