3rd visit of the outing to Maidenhead and its environs: Met up mid-afternoon with a visiting branch of CAMRA and busy with locals. Prompt friendly service and heard from one of them that this community-run pub will be celebrating its 10th anniversary this September and so no doubt secured in the run-up to buying it in 2017. Four real ales to choose from and from Rebellion in Marlow, Buckinghamshire, and Stardust Brewery an independent, family-owned craft microbrewery located in White Waltham, near and south-west of Maidenhead, Berkshire. Established in 2016, the brewery focuses on producing a variety of beers ranging from traditional bitters to modern hazy IPAs and stouts.

About The Craufurd Arms

Website.

The pub is found in Maidenhead, Berkshire, SL6 7LY.

This 19th century community-run and owned pub was purchased in 2017 from the Wellington Pub Company so becoming the UK’s 50th community-owned pub in the country. This followed an application by local people for it to be registered an Asset of Community Value by the local council’s planning department. It boasts a single bar and a partially covered beer garden. It hosts activities such as cribbage, men and women's darts, a weekly quiz night and live music. On a visit in March 2026, daily lunchtime meal deals and four real ales on, and recognised by local CAMRA for consistently well-kept real ales, and in their Good Beer Guide and has been local CAMRA Pub of the Year.
