Had dinner here for the last 3 nights. The biggest impression were 2 staff members Jenna and Siobhan. So eager to make you feel welcome and always so friendly. The chef prepared the best sirloin steak I have had in ages. Give a raise to the chef!!!!

Booked a table for 6 at 6:30. Unfortunately 4 couldn’t make it as car had broken down on way. We explained that there would just be 2 of us. Straight after ordering our meal the rest of our party who were broken down called to ask if we could pick them up as they had 2 children with them. Thankfully the person behind the bar gratefully refunded our money as nothing had been cooked so far. My husband asked what time they stopped serving as once we had picked the others up we would be back. We were told 9pm for last food orders. I then arrived at around 8:25 with another adult plus 2 children. Firstly we were ignored whilst standing at the “please wait to be seated” sign. I then approached someone to be told they’d stopped serving. I explained that we were in just a couple of hours ago and were told by staff that the last orders were 9pm for food. I was then told “don’t know who told you that but they shouldn’t have” she then proceeded to say “it might say 9pm on the website also but it’s not right” oddly enough you can book a table online for 9pm in the restaurant for food!!! So they happily turned 2 children away without being fed after a stressful journey which the staff were informed about. Despite what their website says they clearly just make it up as they go along. My advice, go to the Maypole farm across the road. Really lovely people in there, very accommodating and even came over to our table before the food orders closed to see if we wanted to order meals for the other 2 people we were waiting on. Very different attitudes on how to serve customers, brewers fayre needs to take some lessons. We have been since told by Premier inn that they get a lot of complaints about the Brewers fayre even people with meal vouchers getting turned away so I’d just avoid.

On our way home from elsewhere, we decided to stop off here for our Sunday lunch. Admittedly we hadn't booked but thought we would see if they could fit two of us in. We were greeted by a member of staff who asked if we'd booked, which we hadn't, she explained that they were booked up and wouldn't have space until about 2pm (the time we went in was around 12.20pm). There were a lot of empty tables but we understood they were waiting for people to arrive. Once back in the car, I had the idea of looking on their website to see if I could book a table and sure enough, there was room for me to book a table for two for 12.45pm, so, back in we went. Asked if we'd booked, I gave my name, we were shown to a table, I'm still puzzled now as to why we were turned away the first time, during the whole time we were there, there were many empty tables. It did seem as though they were short staffed. When we ordered, we opted for the two course Festive Menu, choosing a starter and main. Our mains, we chose the Festive Turkey, which on the menu said 'with all the trimmings'. Our starters came, we ate, we waited and waited and waited, after 45 minutes no sign of our main courses. Eventually I went to find a member of staff to let them know we were still waiting for our main. She came back a few minutes later and told us we needed to get it from the carvery, so basically, our 'Festive Turkey' was just the regular Sunday roast, no trimmings. When we ordered, nobody told us we were to get the main course from the carvery, nor were we given a ticket for getting it as is the case with the carvery. I'm assuming this was implemented for today given that it was a busy Sunday which I do understand, however it would have been nice if we'd been informed of this when ordering. Take-away tip, if you haven't booked in advance and are turned away as a walk-in, go onto their website and quickly book a table as we did. Secondly, if it's a busy Sunday and you opt for the Festive Turkey, ask when you order if this is brought out to you or if you need to get it yourselves, it will save you an awful lot of time. I don't know how long we'd have been sitting there if I hadn't gone and asked.

Sofia was incredible however the main manager, 'ethan' was absolutely awful and gave us out if date food and flat beers, Sofia was the only one that saved it and got a 6 star overall. The main manager said you should just eat the out if date crisps because he would and then said he was too busy to talk.. then we told him how Sofia was great at customer service.. he told us " well I taught her... " and then states that its not possible her customer service is better because he taught her.. HE IS AWFUL.... Sofia is incredible.....

Awful. Toilets were full out filth, floor full of paper and a tap that never switched off. Customer service was poor and general politeness lacking with most staff. The food was ok, but a festive menu with items that weren’t available yet. Atmosphere was dead and some internal spaces looked very tired. I have always wondered why this was the quiet cousin of Maypole Farm (across the car park) and today I learnt why. I wouldn’t waste your time or money coming here. Far better places nearby. The best thing about this place is there is plenty of parking and you won’t struggle to get a table!!

We called for lunch today, in our party is a person with a walnut allergy, who was given a check sheet,which was very helpful. We then placed our order, the waitress came over and informed us the next table over had ordered a meal with peanuts in it. We informed the waitress the allergy was with walnuts and thanked her. When the meal came out for our guest we were told it had been made free off contamination and also brought out freshly sterilised utensils. In this we felt the staff had made an proper effort in making sure the guests meal was contamination free. Well done to all.

A terribly organised and badly run affair which I didn’t even get to sample the food in. Early on a Sunday evening there was only a handful of tables occupied but we gave up waiting at the entrance to be seated, and resorted to wandering around to find a member of staff to allocate a table. Despite them laying out cutlery around the restaurant, the table itself was dirty and sticky with the menus in desperate need of replacement. We ended up moving tables, but the cleanliness situation didn’t get any better. Overhearing the apologies for long waits as food was served to other tables didn’t instil any more confidence in the service improving, but after waiting a further fifteen minutes with no attention from the staff we gave up, calling a nearby member over. Shockingly a ‘debate’ then ensued amongst the staff as to whether we’d been told it was bar service, we were told to order at the bar, then they all walked off. Clearly a complete lack of organisation and management so we decided to give up and leave. Terrible attitudes, terrible service and terrible cleanliness - won’t be giving it another go and certainly can’t recommend.

We stayed in the hotel next door so visited the restaurant for breakfast and dinner. Both times were equally as good! We are a family of 6 so at breakfast all of the children ate for free which was a massive bonus. The evening meal was lovely and the service we received was great. If we are in the area again then we would definitely return here.

Food was tasty and staff behind the bar taking orders were really lovely. It was out first time going to a brewers Fayre and nobody told us we had to order at the bar. My biggest grievance which ruined the whole experience was despite there being ample empty seats in a pretty much empty restaurant they sat one guy right next to us who wouldn't stop coughing without even a hand over his mouth.

Menu is smaller than similar size chain restaurants. A bonus for us though others may see it as limited. I saw this as a positive as food could be prepared and served more easily. In the interest of making an informed choice if want things such as steak, this isn’t the place. Limited selection in that regard but other options are still good value. Chicken burger was good and meaty, coleslaw packed with veg and starters/kids options good value too. Refillable soft drinks including water as well as fizzys a winner for children and drivers alike. Staff friendly and welcoming, clean and well maintained. Drawbacks - Entrance is on opposite side of restaurant to the car park. You do need to walk 180 degrees around the building to get in. Bear this in mind if you need wheel chair or pram/pushchair access. It’s all level and wide enough but poorly positioned. Toilets are a bit of a trek up creaking stairs, with only disabled radar key operated on the ground floor but next to the staircase. Reminiscent of another well known chain! Down to Bedford Borough Council, not the venue but access difficult from main roads. Can be confusing as there’s a bus lane sign warning of fines on the road in so it’s unclear if you can actually use that road at first. You can as it goes into a residential area and you turn into the car park within 150 metres.

Revolting. Went for breakfast this morning after a stay locally. Every single table apart from one had dirty plates and cups on it. Nothing had been cleared all morning. The serving area had food everywhere, spilt liquids. We had to ask for knives and forks, two bags, coffee sachets. These were handed over begrudgingly. The coffee machine was broken but there was no sign to tell us this. Next to the tea and coffee was a disgusting bin with no lid on full of rubbish, that had not been cleaned in weeks - this is a breach of the food safety standards ( this is my area of work), the machines and hot water boiler were dirty as was the walls. The whole area had flies. There were two staff, a supervisor and a young waitress who couldn’t have cared less. The waitress was rude and uninterested stating ‘ I can’t be arsed today’ and stood behind the server area eating sausages out of the pan and looking at her phone. Meanwhile the dirty tables remained…… I will be contacting head office with concerns.

This one is a very mixed bag, if you are only there having breakfast it's not so bad, they do have staffing issues so if your not hotel guest you may be disappointed. When going in for breakfast it does always make you wonder about the cleaning else where in the building when there are glasses on the tables outside from the night before. This place on an evening had a strange vibe, maybe the staff are just done in after a long shift but it isn't particularly welcoming, one night was warmer outside than in due to the air con. I ate here once having the mixed grill was the usual pub portion size, steak wasn't tough that's a good point! I stood at an empty bar, full of glasses whilst the bar staff tapped away on a till only after a couple of minutes to be told it is cash only. Speaking to locals I heard this is often a problem! Take cash if want service. Not much they can do about this but the entrance seems like it's down the side rather than on the elevation facing the hotel or the carpark maybe that adds to the strange vibe?!

People waiting for over an hour for food. Tables were asking for a refund and leaving. Diabolical! Queue to order was 4 people but we gave up waiting after 20 minutes, picked up our stuff and left. Didn't even order drinks. This was our second time at this brewers fayre, and our last. First time in October wasn't much better. This branch must have a problem. If I could give it a - 1 review i would. My opinion, avoid this one, just keep driving.

Had breakfast here on two days. First day - greeted at the door, after a very long wait, by a girl who gave the impression of not really wanting to be there. Coffee machine broken, so only instant coffee. Food average. Second day - better staff, but even the instant coffee had run out, only decaf available. Food still only average. Tried to have dinner here too, but we were turned away at the door because we hadn’t booked, even though the place was half dead at 7pm on a Saturday. One of the young waiters thought he could find us a table, but his female colleague blatantly told him that he wasn’t allowed to do that! So we went across the carpark to Maypole Farm instead, where we were welcomed very warmly.

Well it was quite busy & the young girl on duty who was on her own was rushed off her feet! Taking payment, showing to tables, taking orders, bringing out food & wiping tables.

The food was nice but the portions were very small for the price. I was disappointed the pie was hiding the mash potato, only to be told that was a normal portion. My 5 year old nieces dinner was bigger than an adult meal. I am not surprised a lot of brewers fayre restaurant's are closing if they are all like this one and don't give value for money. We went to this one because unfortunately the Hatfield brewers fayre had closed down which did give value for money and the staff bent over backwards to make sure everything was perfect, unlike Bedford south. Won't be going there again. Also we was not happy with the new menu as there wasn't such a variety as the old menu.

Really poor experience!! All week!! I booked food here all week after booking at premier inn. It's a pretty soleless place. After being greeted with a disgusting entrance way littered with cigarette buts and litter strewn around I usually had a lengthy wait fir a table even though the restraunt was pretty empty. In the evenings the three staff were hanging around the bar area discussing social media posts. The chairs and tables were in a poor state and the ceiling had large brown staining where there's obviously been a water leak. Breakfast - really poor contintal choice. Bread stale and curling over, no bananas the fruit bowl was empty most days. I heared a customer ask "Is the England being shown here tomorrow?" Staff - " Don't know" as they walked passed, didn't find out or get back to the customer The food was a reasnable quality unfortunately the venue wasn't upto scratch neither week the staff. It screems of poor management and disinterest. WOULD NOT RECOMMEND.

Decided to give this place a go due to 40% off meals over £25. Wish we hadn't, very basic food, didn't look or taste particularly appetizing. When asked if food was ok, I said the coleslaw was so awful I could not eat it and asked for this to be passed onto the chef. I asked what the response was, I was told some customers like and some don't it's down to personal preference. Not the response I wanted from the cook, my personal preference was it tasted awful, in fact the worst coleslaw I have ever tasted so chefs attitude was a nonsense. We have decided we will never visit again, a first and a last today, so ne warned.

The pub itself is a beautiful location and I have used this pub when I visit Bedford quarterly a year. However visiting this pub today was very disappointing. Very disappointed with the approach to serve customers when entering, and poor performance of how the business works. When we decided to order, the chap behind the bar was great and had no issues with how he handled the customers. While we waited the cooking time was correct, however she only brought two meals out of five, she then disappeared and served another table then served behind the bar without serving the rest of the dishes for us. We had to ask another guy to ask why we only had two serves of dishes and no one was bringing out the other dishes at the same time. We also asked for sauces but she didn't serve that so the guy also did this. When our dinner turned up, unfortunately I was saddened to say the dinner was a little warm to cold and really was tired of complaining and just ate. We also had disabled person with us and sadly the toilet was out of order which can caused problems. Apart from the two guys we got served by it was fantastic I just had to mark down big time due to lack of simple one woman failure services and lack of time between 1st serve to 2nd serve and service collecting dirty plates nor checking if everything ok etc. Such shame There is an outside seating area and there is a children's playground

This place has really gone downhill. There was only one staff member who was taking orders, cleaning tables. And serving food. The restaurant was a mess. They should have atheist 3 or 4 staff members to help customers and help run the business correctly. The food was horrible eggs and has browns over done. Bacon under done and a tiny portion of beans. The continental counter was bare. And whatever they had as in toast of pancakes was stale. There was juice spilt all over the floor and continental bar. And the coffee machine was out of order.

Poor. Had to wait for 10 minutes to be seated. Issues with the till resulted in another delay and a very grumpy server. IT issues happen but to not give any eye contact or update with the people waiting and getting more frustrated was more than annoying.

Had a voucher for 40% off mains. Food was lovely, girl behind bar didn't look like she wanted to be there, Atmosphere was your typical Brewers Fayre. Service sucks the general manager couldn't organise a P155 up in a pub. 1 member of staff serving while the General Manager is being rude to customers and organising tables, while the queue at the bar gets bigger. The carvery looks like it was set up last week, with dry looking vegetables.

Awful place. Marketing offer deals to get people in but restaurant fails to deliver and customer service dept and senior management cannot give a fig, even if you complain. Best just avoid. Captive market with premiere inn there but the Maypole nearby is much better. Food is reasonable - if they have it. Long queues to order at busy times. No App. Filthy loos. Might as well serve yourself as the place is not built for service or happiness. Shame really as it could be really nice.

The meal (smothered meat) was OK, though the bacon was a bit minimal. My wife had the smothered chicken, which she enjoyed. Any inexpensive meal, though not so sure about the price.

Waited a while to be seated, had to order the food at the bar, which had a 5 person queue, staff were uninterested, then my food arrived and it was raw!! Ordered a burger and as you can see in the picture, it’s raw! Felt sorry for the nice young lad who I explained to that my food was raw, he apologised even though it’s obviously not his fault. I’d already paid as was staying in the premier inn next door and on their meal deal, so I couldn’t get a refund, was offered a replacement burger, however I had no faith in them cooking it properly.

Felt sorry for the 2 members of staff, as it was quite busy and they needed help. Food isn't the greatest, but saying that, for a cheaper, quick meal out, it ticks the boxes.

Excellent service, friendly staff and greta family atmosphere. Food was served quickly and tasted great. Great value for money. The staff were amazing, the owners need to add more staff on to the shift though so everyone gets their lunch uninterrupted.

All good apart from staffing issues? NEED MORE STAFF! The staff worked their socks off but found it hard to get to everyone? Which causes frustration to the customer's. The Guinness is very good.

Came here for breakfast. Everything was pretty disappointing. The bacon was soggy, there were no eggs, and everything was a bit cold.

Friday 22/12 evening as part of the premiere Inn deal we had a meal here. The girl at the restaurant was miserable. Definitely not 'happy to help.' The food was good and Oliver was lovely. He definitely was 'happy too help.' Breakfast was ok but not much on offer. Angel was lovely. We felt sorry for her as a family that thought they were more important than anyone else wouldn't leave the table even though they arrived 45 minutes late. Other people were waiting for that table but they didn't care. Angel did her best to explain the situation as professionally as she could but they were far too proud too be thinking of anyone else but themselves. Good food and reasonably priced.

Very slow service, waited ages to be served. Barista was banging every cup and jug like there's no tomorrow (as a barista myself, if you're steaming your milk correctly, there's no need AT ALL for incessant banging to get rid of air bubbles!!!!) Made the atmosphere awful, noise really goes through you!

Oh Dear, another Pub totally unaware of the current disability regulations. There isn't a ramp, there are even any same level flooring, upon enquiring with one of the staff regarding access to the premises, by one in a wheelchair, we were curtly reminded that this was a traditional Public House, who don#t cater for those with mobility issues! Such a shame as my friend had his legs blown off in Afghanistan, and is a hero.

A lovely and very well decorated restaurant with very poor customer service. All the standard duties of a restaurant just missed. Drinks were not offered through out our meal, no one around to ask for more drinks or to take our dishes when finished. Food was very average for the price. When we finally got someone’s attention and asked for dessert we thought we had been forgotten as the waiting time was far too long, they informed us that our ticket did not go through to the kitchen and gave us extra scoops of ice cream. Very unfortunate that a lack of customer service has let down a very beautiful setting.
