Reopened Friday 3rd April 2026 having closed late December 2025.

Opening hours and website updated.

Further updates to follow.

A traditional country pub serving 1 or 2 cask ales, it retains a small snug bar at the centre of the pub which is flanked by two rooms predominantly used for dining.

Reopened on 29 July 2024 having been closed on 4 May 2024 while the Brakspear Pub Co sought new tenants.

The new tenants have renovated the garden to make an extensive, but lovely and inviting outdoor space. In addition to the main kitchen, a shepherd's hut has been installed in the garden to provide street food such as pizzas, tacos, burgers and fish and chips to customers and for takeaways, during the summer months. There is also a newly refurbished and very welcoming courtyard space, with lots of attractive planters and outdoor decoration.

Situated next door to the church, the Maltsters Arms was formerly known as the Shovel and Broom and dates from at least 1779. Ideally located for nearby National Trust Greys Court and walks in hills and woodland.
