Now reopened after a small fire, it did not burn down as previous review suggests, it hs been renamed Chalfont Phoenix.
The previous reviews are extreme and inaccurate, the pub is not the drug den of Chalfont St Peter, it is a good sports bar that is used by people who want to watch football, who may be a bit noisy and opinionated but are no different to those in any other sports bar.

just to add, there is a documented story from during World War 2, in which a large group of american G.I.s who were based near the area got into a full scale brawl with a large bunch of locals from chalfont st peter out the front of the Poachers. The article goes on to mention that the brawl continued for ages with a lack of police available.

Just goes to show, the poachers is part of chalfont, and has always represented the same thing in the area. ha ha ha

love cocaine, but hate having to be secretive about it? then come to the poachers and no one will bat an eyelid as you snort the stuff in full view. poachers has had a reputation for years and years, its a wonder its never been closed down.

this place was recently burnt down during a burglary (sums up the poachers) but its going to reopen in a few months apparently.

no idea if it is going to remain as the chavs favourite football pub of the area, or if changes will be made.... i hope it does stay as a football pub, as the atmosphere is cracking for england games.

love it or hate it, poachers is part of chalfont.

These reviews are awful. As someone who lives nearby, let me assure you, you would be hard pressed to find a more wretched hive of scum and villainy in all of buckinghamshire. If you love being stabbed, or stabbing, then the poachers is for you. To be honest I'm glad its there, keeps the charvers away from the other pubs.
Avoid like the bloody plague. Threatening, full of boss-eyes aggro-merchants and just....argh.

Great pub, great atmosphere, great beer, great bands, great people, great fun what more could you ask for? Oh yeah fit women!! There are quite a few. The land lady is worth a trip just on her own! Some good looking lads too for the ladies! 10 out of 10 for The Poachers!
