Nags Head, Henley In Ardenback to pub details please note - reviews on this site are purely the opinion of site visitors, so don't take them too seriously.
The only pub in the town with a pool table so attracts a younger crowd, good place for watching the footy. I know this pub has had a lot of landlords over recent years so I think previous comments are only relevant to the managers/landlords at that time, the last ones were very welcoming & friendly. The food is nothing to write home about.

Small terraced pub, with black beam and white rendered frontage.
The interior is open plan, with the wood beam look. There is a pool area and side area with old beam partitions to the right of the entrance. The main area is wood panelled, with plain red and walls decorated with a few old pictures. There is a nice stone flagged floor and nice fire place.
Service was functional and the clientele consister of a couple of young uns playing pool and keeping themselves to themselves. TV in main area had Top Gear on and there was music coming from the pool area, though not obtrusive. Whilst i felt it was a locals place, I didnt feel to the extent that other posters have, of unfriendliness.
Beer; usual stuff, with Wells Bombardier (fine) and Deuchars IPA.
The other pubs i visited were better, mainly through beer choice. To me, this is bog standard.

A pub for locals, very quiet and unwelcoming to non-locals. Bar manager can be rude to customers. Plenty of other much more friendly places in Henley, so best to avoid the Nags Head.

Frequented by locals only at the weekend, most of them from "off the High Street". If you are looking to eat/drink at lunchtime then it is worth a go but avoid it on Saturday night if you don't wear a football shirt.

Unfriendly, both locals and staff, proper Slaughtered Lamb type place.
Given the choice nearby I wouldn't bother.

Smokey pub for locals
