The Hen & Chicken is a landmark pub beside the A31, highly visible on the affluent Surrey/Hampshire border between Alton & Farnham. It is perfectly positioned to attract breakfast and daytime trade, destination dining in the evenings and function business throughout the year.
A classic coaching inn of days gone by where passengers would take refreshment whilst the horses were changed, the building retains much of this history with charm and character preserved in the main areas augmented by modern barns and a great courtyard garden attracting local and passing guests.
There is good parking to the front and side with easy access from the main road. A characterful bar area greets guests with a large inglenook fireplace and traditional style pub furniture. There are two dining areas either side of bar, one with a very popular large carvery, wooden floors and panelling, and to the right a carpeted restaurant area. Recent investment in the kitchen includes a brand new floor, walk in fridge\freezer kitchen extract and dishwasher.
The rear of the pub is a more contemporary space with two large attractive ‘barns’ featuring vaulted ceilings, and brick floors and walls. The versatile light and airy rooms with separate kitchen and bar facilities can be used for hire, dining, or developing the pizza offer. Leading directly onto the well-manicured garden, the rooms make the Hen & Chicken an ideal venue for weddings and functions.
Extensive private accommodation with separate access and a further block with additional team rooms complete the package.
