Este bar cafetería tiene una buena ubicación con vistas a una plaza peatonal en dirección al río. Era un día cálido así que nos sentamos afuera y disfrutamos de dos blancos planos y compartimos un pastel de buena calidad.

Vinimos a desayunar por el aniversario de mis padres y nuestras expectativas fueron superadas. Había estado para una comida previamente con colegas de trabajo y había querido ir de nuevo durante un tiempo. Nuestra camarera (Claire) era muy amable, atento y servicial y la comida era maravillosa. Yo diría que mi desayuno de jardín (versión no vegana) fue el mejor desayuno que he tenido! Sin duda recomendaría y visitar de nuevo 👍

En el lado positivo se puede obtener una pastelería y café lo suficientemente decente, lo que es inusual para Bedford. Está de moda y se siente de lujo, y la ubicación es genial. Sin embargo, es un poco caro para lo que obtienes y un poco exagerado en el aspecto y la sensación de "diseñado para Instagram". Es un poco demasiado difícil. Voy a aparcar las afirmaciones de ser un bar expreso, pero será el primero que he visto donde el personal tiene iPads para pedir un montón.

We headed to Bridges to grab brunch/ lunch having not been for quite a while. We had forgotten how lovely it is in there. A really nice atmosphere and great feeling. After grabbing a smoothie and iced coffee, we went for a Turkish Eggs, a delicious set poached eggs with chorizo and halloumi, and a cheese burger. Both were tasty and plenty big enough. Bridges isn't the cheapest spot in Bedford, but you certainly get what you pay for! Won't leave it as long to visit again this time!

Had a fantastic lunch at Bridges. My son & partner had the Philly Cheese steak which was really good and I had the divine Turkish eggs. The dish was perfectly seasoned and the eggs cooked lovely and runny. My son washed his down with a biscoff milkshake which he loved. Gorgeous food, wonderful staff and lovely atmosphere. It was really busy when we arrived yet the wait time was short. We hadn't booked so we're lucky to get a table!

My first time here and it won’t be my last! Clean, modern cafe area which is a bit echoey. A varied menu offering more than just a sausage or bacon bap. I’d recommend the French toast but will be trying the hash next time. The Biscoff one has a caramel sauce, Biscoff biscuit, strawberry and banana kebab stick and a dollop of cream. It was sweetish but funnily not as sweet as the pistachio toast. The waitress was friendly. I’m hoping the chef does a bacon, maple and toasted pecan nut version….

I just wanted to shout out the great team at Bridges. This past Saturday, i visited for brunch with 3 friends who had never been before. It was a sunny day so it was very busy. We sat at our table and a lovely lady said that due to staffing issues (people calling in sick) service may be a little slower. All I can say is you couldn't tell - the staff were as lovely as they always are, and we were given regular updates r.e when our food would be with us. These updates, when you know a venue is short staffed, are always appreciated. And no surprise, the food and drinks were top notch!!!

Called in for coffee and cake on a busy Saturday morning. Place in good location and was clearly popular. The noise level inside was very high largely due to the acoustics (all hard surfaces including the ceiling) plus an under current of base music. This made it difficult to hold a conversation. We had a nutty flapjack and a blackcurrant shortcake. Both were excellent and probably as good as any we have ever had. Service was good, prices fair for the quality cakes. Unfortunately the whole experience was let down by the coffee. Both had regular black americanos and they were weak and had little flavour. Will not return simply because of the coffee.

Best Bottomless Brunch spot in Bedford, and best bottomless brunch I’ve had in Bedford and London. The food was delicious, it was small plates rather than brunch food which was very welcomed by our group. The service was the best I’ve had in a long time, our glasses were never empty and the staff were kind, attentive and really good fun. I would highly recommend, and will definitely be back!

The atmosphere is great, with the warm lighting combines with more concentrated ceiling lights, the music is punchy and bassy but by no means annoying, soothing if anything, the coffee grinder and espresso machine are both quite quiet too. The espresso here is great: acidic and fruity, slightly floral, decent amount of sweetness with very little bitterness. A nice layer of crema on top and the asymmetrical serving setup make it a treat to the eyes. The double espresso is ordered arrived with a stroopwaffle which i loved, the price of the double eapresso is a bit higher than the competition (£2.75, usually it is around £2.50 for the same coffee) but with everything you get I believe it is more than worth it. Definitely recommend.

Food used to be really nice but I feel the last few times I have been the food has been pretty average. Its almost like it is too busy for the chef so the food standard drops and is not always hot. I also feel they over book and dont have enough staff to cater for the amount of people. My coffee has also never been right, everytime I order a oat caramel latte, either the caramel is missing or regular milk has been used. I used to be a regular, but I dont think I will be dining here anymore. However I will still be there for quiz nights!

The service we received was lovely and I cannot fault it. It is because of this service that I am thankful to not be unwell right now. As someone with coeliac disease and having to be very careful with sticking to a gluten free diet (not even a may contain) I emailed ahead to be greeted with a lovely response explaining how they have separate areas for preparing the food etc and everything suitable was labeled on the menue as either GF (gluten free) or GFA (Gluten Free Available. There weren't many choices but that's not a problem. I ordered the Hash as it was labels GF. Informed the staff of Coeliac and she informed the kitchen. She came back to say that unfortunately the dish was a May Contain, unsafe for coeliacs. The May contain being in the salsa and the pepper. Not a problem, I'll order something else. Jacket potato, can't go wrong right? Wrong, the potatoes are coated in pepper which is unsuitable. Okay fair enough, I also salt and pepper my potatoes when making jacket potatoes, let's try the salmon and avocado benedict (labeled GFA) I can't have this either as there is pepper in the avocado. Confused as to why they can't just not put pepper on my avocado I'm now very deflated and nearly gone though all options labeled on the menue to be told it's unsuitable. The waitress was so lovely and she could see I was getting defeated so was able to tell me what I could have that didn't contain pepper or could be made without. In the end I opted for the bacon benedict without the crispy onions. Don't get me wrong the food was okay, but after having gone through nearly all of the GF or GFA options on the menue, to be told they aren't suitable I was very very disappointed and at this point just wanted to go home. Especially as I had emailed beforehand. Unfortunately I will not be returning to eat here. Drinks maybe. Please please of you are Coeliac, or are allergic to gluten where you cannot have May contains, your only options seem to be bacon benedict without the crispy onions or one of the wraps (GFA for both). Such a shame.

Have been here many times, we love the waffle and pancakes. But this time we encountered the most unwelcoming greeter. They were two small tables available and we are two adults and two toddler, she firstly said no table available, then offered us high table when I pointed out we have toddler who needs high chair and those high table won’t work. She said they prioritize reserved customer, so they get the normal height table even though they might be two adults. Then I said they are two tables of customer are about to leave maybe we can have one of them, which should have been offered by her but she didn’t. She then turned around checked the booking record and told us those table are reserved in two hours time. Not ‘ I need it back in two hours time is that ok’, but they are reserved so you can’t have them. She clearly didn’t want us to be there and didn’t want to try to find a seat for us at all. Just want to leave the review so the manager knows maybe some staff needs more training. At the end I insisted because I promised my kid waffle for lunch, she didn’t come close to our table for anything the whole time and we were served by other friendly staffs which was lovely.

We had the pleasure of attending Bridges Restaurant for their Halloween afternoon tea during the half-term week, and it was an absolute delight. The atmosphere was warm and inviting, making it a great choice for both adults and children. The adults ordered the Croque Monsieur and Reuben sandwiches, and they were simply top-notch. The flavours were outstanding, and the presentation was impeccable. The kids' plates were equally impressive and offered a variety that even the pickiest eaters would enjoy. Lots of thought appeared to be put into the kid's meal and offer for both presentation and variety. What truly stood out for us was the excellent value for money. Bridges Restaurant provided us with a fantastic dining experience without breaking the bank. We left feeling completely satisfied and eager to return for more. Highly recommend Bridges Restaurant to anyone looking for a memorable dining experience in a great atmosphere. This is the place to be for a wonderful meal with your loved ones.

Sadly, I was rather underwhelmed by our experience here. It was our 1st visit, midweek for brunch and coffee. Only 1 member of staff serving the floor, with 2 making coffee. She was working flat out yet was unable to keep up as every table was full. Coffee/tea took about 8-10 mins to arrive, which was tolerable if a little slow. My husbands pastry was brought quickly, but my poached eggs on toast took just over 30 minutes. It arrived on the wrong bread (which I chose to ignore because the wait had been so long). What was most disappointing was I had to send it back anyway because the eggs were overwhelmed by the vinegar taste they were poached in. I appreciate vinegar is often used to help form the eggs, but it was unbelievably strong (to the point I couldn't taste anything but vinegar). I asked for simple toast to replace this order but was further frustrated that it took 20 more mins to arrive. All in all, it was disappointing, and I certainly wouldn't rush back when there are so many other nearby establishments to choose from.

I need to share a bad experience I had on Sunday between 3-4 pm. I bought coffee and sat down, but the table wasn't comfy. So, I wanted to change to a better spot where some tables were pushed together.The issue started when a waitress kept staring at me for no reason, which was annoying. Then, a big group came in and I thought they might want my table. Before I could react, the same waitress rudely started moving my table, with my stuff still on it.I asked her to wait just 2 seconds, but she ignored me and kept being rude. I quickly gathered my things and left the café, deciding not to go back. My point is, moving my table so rudely wasn't necessary. Waiting a bit would've been nicer, so I could change tables without feeling rushed. Even if the table was reserved, a simple and polite approach would have been better. Other staff were okay, but this waitress's behavior was so rude.

Love going to Bridges, whether it’s for an afternoon coffee and mocktail with my children or for a few grown up cocktails with my friends. The place is very family friendly oriented which is wonderful when you have to entertain the children in the holidays. Bridges do a wonderful job coming up with different ideas and ways to spend an evening. I’ve been to a few different events from flower arrangements to quiz nights. Quiz nights is one of my favourites, we have a team of 6, made up of myself, husband and friends. Great way to spend a mid week evening, having a laugh and a guess to some questions. It’s better than sitting in front of the telly. Highly recommend.

I was told this was a great place but when we arrived the service was very slow The food was not cheap most lunch dishes even sandwiches were £15 or more Shocked when we ordered 2 Ploughman lunches, good spread of cheese, ham and pate but 1 small slice of bread - never seen that before We-asked for a couple of slices of extra bread and got charged over £3 for them The other food was Luke warm and we waited over 35 minutes to get the food served I won’t be using this place again based on poor service, rip off prices for what you get

Very poor service, overpriced bland food, I had high hopes going by the reviews but would not recommend, won’t be going back, there’s plenty of other places doing a much better job in bedford.

Good ambience, and food was nice although it was a little pricey! Team and service was ok, just felt a little rushed at times.

I rarely write reviews but for a small town like Bedford this is an absolute gem on your doorstep. I went with 2 friends and we had the bottomless option, 90 minutes of either prosecco, gin or beer with a fabulous selection of food including 2 courses. The staff are super friendly too. It was a lovely way to spend a Saturday but don't take my word for it, try it for yourself. We will be back! :-)

A lovely old-fashioned pub but well up to speed with coeliac needs. The Sunday lunch was delicious and I enjoyed gluten free Yorkshire Puds! What a treat! They even did separate gluten free gravy. Generous portions and good service. This was our second visit and we will definitely be back.

Had an unexpected evening in the Kings Arms whilst visiting Bedford. Lovely friendly staff. They had a live band playing who were great. Lots of dancing. A great atmosphere.

Really super little café. We stopped in for a slap-up breakfast and were not disappointed. Good coffee, great sausages and a friendly atmosphere. I'd definitely go back.
