Nice little pub, friendly staff but could really do with some carpets or rug, the sound just echos in the place and it can be very loud.

Avoid at all costs. The bar was filled with loud pikeys eating shop bought sandwiches and spitting them out on the floor. Not a place to take families. Loud, rude and obnoxious.

Absolutely under no circumstances eat here! Disgusting state of a kitchen! Food is stored in a disgusting manner raw with cooked meat. All frozen food. The landlord hasn't got a clue how to run a restaurant! Also a very rude person. Bar staff are as thick as mud water. No wonder it's 2 stars...... That's a luck

We stayed here after the hotel we booked let us down. Good basic accommodation, no frills but great for a place to rest your head. Landlady and landlord went out of their way to make us welcome and really made up for the fact the brewery has neglected what could be a flagship pub. Breakfast was good and well needed after a night a flying proms. Rooms are dated but clean and functional. Good value, great staff and hope brewery rewards the landlady and landlord for all they are trying to do and spend a bit of money updating the facilities there.

This is very convenient for those staying at RAF Mildenhall. It's only about 100 yards out the back gate. The food was good and great for a large group. Burgers were good and the Fish and Chips wasn't bad either.

El establecimiento de este propriotors sabrosos, hacen lo posible para que esta experiencia sea inolvidable. Hay muchas cosas que pueden ir mal en un pub, cuestiones de personal. Flujo de efectivo, siendo tyed a una cervecería implacable, con ayuda de ellos hasta el lugar. sprooseCreo que lo mejor, lo admito mr ellis podría ser un poco menos activos en la agresión frontal.Pero eso es él y el amor de la comunidad le especialmente su esposa encantadora libby. que podría añadir es precioso.El narcotráfico va en blatent nunca he visto, pero todos sabemos que para preguntar si eso es nuestra preferida, una ginger individuales, im dijo.De cualquier forma me encanta el lugar con su hortera Laurel y Hardy acondraplastic ornamentación tamaño. alfombras raídas, y ventanas, dar la crittal lugar que toque retro.Domingo, bien eso es otra historia, la gente es encantadora, adorable lugar ecléctico,

This has the opprtunity to be a great village pub, yet has never taken it up. Rather walk 2 miles to the next village than drink here. Unfriendly, rowdy atmosphere, with a welcome taken from the Slaughtered Lamb.

Desayuno inglés completo con los champiñones, croquetas de patata o black pudding!! Realmente? El desayuno todo olía como si hubiese sido tirado en la vieja grasa. Nadie de nuestro grupo de ocho podía digerir y dos eran realmente enfermo después de sólo un par de bocados! Realmente horrible comida!La cena la noche anterior de gambas y sobresaliente no estaban mejor.

Walk in on your own and hear the banjos start playing. Rude landlord and poor beer. Just don't bother

Cualquier casa pública con carteles grandes publicidad de una conocida compañía de televisión por satélite de deporte, no es normalmente en mi lista de pubs para visitar algo para comer. Después de cruzar el umbral me di cuenta de que había ignorado uno de mis reglas cardinal. La señora que sirve detrás del bar pasamos varios minutos lidiar con un controlador de la televisión en un intento de satisfacer los lugareños. Después de haber sido terminado (le había dado) que pregunté si la comida estaba disponible, mi cruzando los dedos que funcionaba como ella era lo siento de informar que no había comida en esta noche! Bebida reconciliadora - dije en ese caso debo dejar ya que la comida no era mi alegría prioritario de esa noche.

I'm surprised at the poor reviews for this venue, I thought the choice of drinks was pretty good and I had an ace pizza freshly made. It was pretty busy so some people like it!

Booked this over the phone, very easy to book and pay, was told room was en-suite and breakfast included, room was basic and floor needed hoovering, bathroom was freezing so we decided to shower once we got home, instructions on bedroom door say to leave key in room on day of departure which we did, we took our case to car and returned to go for breakfast which was apparently from 8am, the whole pub was shut, no lights on, we waited around till nearly 9am before giving up and going to Star Express in Letchworth,

Location of the B in H is ideal to stop for a drink or meal & being so close to the RAF base gives a good facility. Food is not up to restaurant standard but it is good value & it is avillage pub, beer is great

I have passed The bird In hand many times and have never been in until today. I won't be going back.I went here with my wife and we went into the restaurant that is ok ( slightly cluttered with tat) and we ordered from the menu , Chilli con Carni ( £7.50) and Gammon & Chips ( £7.50) .The Chilli Con Carni tasted like it had come from a tin and my wife couldn't eat it and the gammon was a tough as old boots. The salad that accompanied it was withered.While we was the there the only other two people in the restaurant send a meal back because it was too tough.The Waitress/Barmaid was very friendly .We wont be coming back.

Went along for a musical extravaganza. Unfortunately the evening was ruined by an irate, inept and foul mouthed landlord.

Stayed at the bird in hand for one night.Single room although the bed linen was clean the room was very basic like something out of the 1940s era.Breakfast was continental if you could call it that down stair in a wee cubbie hole of a room, orange juice from half full carton totally self service as no one about. Luke warm water for tea from a flask and a tea bag mik from a grotty old fridge that should be sent straight to the recycle yard. and crossiants, sorry no chance make your own toast in a small toaster half loaf of bread left lying on table. Oh and nearly forgot the cereal small kids packets no choice either as there were only to packets and one had already been eaten.On the positive side although the bar was empty and quite large, it felt warm and cosy and the beer was good.Will Definately------Not be back.

We entered this restaurant for lunch exactly at lunch time, the busiest time, or so you would think.There was not one person in there, including staff.We stood in the middle of the restaurant like lemons, waiting for someone to come out to us, no-one did. We could have helped ourselves to the bar, they wouldn't even of known.After 10 mins, we gave up and went somewhere else.Can't rate the food, as never got any.

Extensive refurbishment since the business was taken over and restaurant is now more modern and efficient. It is still changing as they learn from experience as to what works best - which is fine and does show they are willing to adapt. We call in occasionally as it is local to us. Good selection of snacks and the cooked food is always very well done and seems cooked to order rather than sitting on hotplates as in some similar venues. What stops us using the place more often is that the coffee is not great, specifically not very strong. I'm aware this is a matter of taste but the coffee (best example is their flat white) often doesn't taste very much of coffee, just hot water and milk - they need to look at the settings they use I think. Four stars for their food but only one or two stars for their coffee (which is at least nice and hot),

Been here a couple of times before but this was the worst. Came here as happened to be in Biggleswade on business Overpriced completely for breakfasts and not allowed any breakfast swaps and wants to charge £1.50 for anything extra… waiter, in between being on his laptop with headphones, was trying to upsell and even at one point congratulated himself on being a great salesman!! You are not :-( Food quality not good and for £7 elsewhere I also get toast and a hot drink and good quality food. So wasted £21 and your milk was on the turn too!

Visited here with friend during october half term week at lunchtime. When we arrived spoke to someone at the bar who said to sit anywhere. After settling ourselves at a table we went up to order a carvery each, which has always been available in the past at lunchtimes during school holidays when we have come. Only to be told no carvery til the evening. For an establishment that is known predominantly for being a carvery to not be serving it at lunchtime especially as it was the school half term and pretty busy made no sense. Also we weren’t informed the carvery was not available when we arrived, neither was there a sign outside to inform customers. We checked on leaving. Just having the roasted meats out for the evening service must be wastful as on a midweek day I can’t imagine the footfall is much more than the daytime was on that day. Although only having the dearer menu options at lunchtime might be better for your business it’s not for the customer. A sandwich or jacket potato & topping nearly the same price as a small plate carvery is not good value at all! I was also disappointed that my email to yourselves was never responded to regarding no carvery available ( & gave you over a week to respond) so I have written a review for all to read instead!

Come here for lunch since it opened, 2 issues to review Only one cashier in the middle, trays with food are too heavy to be in a long queue have a side till open. Clearing up after customer's is too long, I have come in and table up on table has not been cleared. Please maintain a good standard.
