Well, as we near the end of Lockdown 3.0 and a year that most will be happy to forget, let’s be thankful for the good things! We re-opened outside on Monday 12th April (Hurrah!).

We have heated, comfy outside tables on the terrace that are now bookable for up to six people from different households or more if from no more than 2 households. (just go to the booking widget or call us on 01442 86 44 80 to reserve). You can also book the garden tables under our brollies and, whilst they don’t come with heaters, they do come with lovely warm blankets instead. Please come dressed appropriately for the lovely, but unpredictable Spring weather!

Please also be aware that everyone in your party will now be asked to complete Track & Trace, so to speed things up, don’t forget to download the NHS App to your phone before coming!

Our team is still the friendliest around … by a country mile … and we have a fab new menu, brimming with seasonal, local treats. As always, we are showcasing the very best of our local suppliers, so what better way to enjoy kickstarting your social life than in your favourite pub.

We want you (it’s essential) to feel relaxed about coming to the Alford Arms, we want you to feel safe and we definitely want you to have a very good time, so we have a full Covid-19 Risk Assessment and you are very welcome to read the overview by clicking …HERE.

We think we have done a rather good job(!) Let us know what you think.

Frithsden! Where the heck is Frithsden? Find Frithsden and you’ll find the award-winning Alford Arms: a pubby gem nestling in a secluded wooded valley. The great Ashridge Forest lies bustling on its doorstep and the broad sweep of the Chiltern Hills is its backdrop. Ramblers drop wearily out of the woods and swear they have chanced upon Brigadoon while locals and regulars swap a knowing glance.

Find The Alford Arms and you’ll never utter the term ‘gastro-pub’ ever again.
