Bucks Star Brewery Tap House in Milton Keynes

Visited with friends and ordered a pesto and olive Pizza, it was lovely, but also had sundried tomatoes and capers on it which I was not expecting! Would be great if all the ingredients that are going to be on the pizza were listed? Could do with some salads on the menu and a bit more variety, otherwise a lovely and friendly place to visit.

Scrapes a 5 star because it has a great USP.....unfiltered beer brewed nearby. Similar to a tank bar. Super fresh. Sensible range. Fab service, super- welcoming. Instantly at home. Nice to see decent lager also on tap.

What a lovely place. Staff are cheerful and helpful. The Beers, while a little pricy are excellent. Great atmosphere, really tasty pizza 🍕😋, friendly clientele. Great music. Highly recommended ❤️🎸🌞

In my humble opinion one of the best places to eat and entertain myself in Milton Keynes. Yummy sourdough pizzas, local cider, kombucha and of course house specialities😍 lots of events to satisfy all tastes. Come and try for yourself 😍

Local gem! The pizza is absolutely authentic, with a perfect blend of fresh ingredients and crispy crust. Pair that with their house-made kombucha, which is refreshingly delicious, and you've got a winning combination. The atmosphere is warm and inviting, but what really sets this place apart is the owner. He is incredibly friendly and welcoming, creating a community vibe.

Really enjoyable evening spent at Bucks Star, Live music always a bonus on top of organic red wine and gluten free pizza, Will be going back again, there is lots of regular events,

One on Milton Keynes best kept secrets. The Bucks Star Brewery Tap House is a hidden gem. Super clean beers, delicious pizza and friendly staff. They also have great live music and comedy. It has a great vibe and atmosphere. I love this place

I was there to see a concert. The music was very good, the food and drinks were delicious.

The Tap House is simply fantastic. The staff are first class , the beer is first class and the food is first class.... period!!!

Lovely small brewery in an industrial unit. The owners have worked hard to give the space a warm atmosphere. The pizzas are very good as are the beers.

Much better for a visit than a takeaway beer or six... Worth a visit if you are local and like a craft beer - especially if you are looking to stay for a while!

A fantastic dog friendly brewery with delicious pizza and fantastic staff!

What a little gem.. first time visit yesterday and as soon as I walked in the atmosphere is amazing.. a warm welcome from the lovely lady behind the bar. She allowed me to sample a few beers before making my mind up and bought a Growler full of Steenbrugge, 6 cans and 2 bottles of cider..very reasonable price. Thank you for my first experience. First impressions last and will definitely return for an evening with wifey and dog.. Cheers folks..

I didn't have food, but a good turnout

Amazing beer. Fun place with great and friendly staff. The beer is great .

Nice bar, great cake, excellent live music

Excellent (veggie only) pizzas, excellent beers. They've done a great job of turning a unit in an industrial estate into a comedy club and bar, our group had a great evening

Visitor to Wolverton so first time visit to this venue. Such an unusual place to have a bar/tap room. Situated on an estate of small industrial units there is something slightly incongruous about it but that's the beauty of it; as a venue, it really works. The brewery's own beer, of course. Not a huge selection but how many different beers could you drink in one night? For me, being a real ale drinker, I prefer my beer poured from the barrel at room temperature. The beers on offer here last night were well chilled and in cold glasses. Not everyone's choice but it suited the beer they were serving. Friendly staff and lovely home made pizza/ garlic bread/ salad etc. It was a really nice and unusual evening out in Wolverton with family. Only 3* on the atmosphere I'm afraid as there was some live music on which was too loud for us, made conversation difficult at times but other than that an excellent night out.

First time here at Bucks Star Brewery Tap House, nice venue. The pizza is excellent 10/10. Good range of ales and bottled ciders. It’s not easy to get to as it’s on an industrial estate with no pavements in places but worth the effort

We had a lovely afternoon beer here today. It was family friendly with toys available for our little one and a high chair as well. A really relaxed vibe and good beer as well. We couldn't ask for more!

My first social dance with Olney line dancing group at Brewery Tap on St.Patricks day, a great afternoon with some new friends. Lovely atmosphere and looking forward to more line dancing classes and the next social.

Comedy night had a good laugh nice venue great beer.

Arrived here as part of a 40th birthday celebration by double decker bus. The staff and venue were equally great. So much so that we will be back for a live music event in the near future. A hidden gem amongst the cacophony of bistro pubs and their culture. Inspiring and delivers on all areas.

I love this place. The beer, pizza and service are all very good quality, and the bar feels Alpine and reminds me of being in resort after a day on teh slopes. Highly recommended.

Small brewery and taproom just on the outskirks of wolverton. Brewing their own beer onsite. Good for drinking in or take aways. Free parking outside. They have live music on some nights

Lovely beer in this deceptively Will disguised bar rocked inside an industrial unit. Just had drinks and everyone tried different beers all of which were very good

Top place. Great food, amazing atmosphere and excellent service

Happy to find this place. Decent tap house with a coffee machine. Great snack options too to go with drinks.

1st time visitor nice place to relax.

Enjoyed the food and new 🍺 and smashing music lovely staff clean bathroom s

Just picked up some of their brilliant beer and enjoyed a gorgeous coffee in their tap room. Highly recommend.

Really nice vibe. Really good beer plus delicious fresh pizza! Amazing tap room.

What a cozy place to sit and relax. I wish if there were more places like this. I had to wait around an hour for my alloy wheel to be replaced and I found this place near by, such a lovely staff and cozy inside. Recommend

Went for the African Drumming night. Pizza and garlic bread were amazing. Lovely friendly staff

Great beers but on the pricier side. Definitely worth a visit for a pint and a pizza.

I was pleasantly surprised. The beer is unfiltered and delicious, great pizza too. There is a good atmosphere and the entertainment was good. Proud to say I am a frequent visitor now.

A friend invited me to this place one evening and my interest peaked when I heard that it was an independent brewery-come-venue in MK! Due to some logistical failings on part (you know who you are) we turned up late on a Saturday. Despite this, Datis and the team greeted us with a friendly smile and some expert tasters and suggestions. I then heard FOOD is also available (when you’re not 11th hr stragglers) and so with some degree of confidence I can say I will be returning. A great hidden gem, perhaps slightly hidden in plain site, but has a chill vibe, free parking and of course, a range of independent brews.

Homemade Pizzas were delicious, lovely atmosphere... CANNOT WAIT FOR THE HONKY TONK SUNDAYS!!!

We recently had the pleasure of enjoying a fantastic evening of beer, food, and hospitality, and it's safe to say it exceeded my expectations in every way. The combination of delicious food and a wide selection of beers made for an unforgettable experience. The menu had something for everyone, including vegetarian options. Now, let's talk about the beer selection. It was a beer lover's dream come true! The variety of craft beers on offer was impressive, and the knowledgeable staff was more than happy to help with tasters.

What a hidden gem! I cannot believe there is not more reviews for this great little taproom. Lovely staff, comfortable surroundings, amazing pizza and of course BRILLIANT BEER.

Brilliant night watching Gina sing soul and funk. Chilled, great beer, great food. Our first time there but we'll be back.

Clean bathrooms , good service, good prices, good music, good tap beer

A really nice friendly independent bar. You get real organic unfiltered ales on tap and great pizzas. A bar that one can go in alone and always find someone to chat with. A variety of entertainment most nights of the week. Great to see independent bar, too many chains that all look the same.

Great selection of beer in an atmospheric venue. Well worth a visit.

The beer is spectacular. The food is very good too and all run in a very friendly atmosphere.

A Tap House That Sets the Bar High for Brewery Experiences! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ (5 stars) I recently visited BuckStar brewery and I must say it is by far one of the best tap houses I have ever been to! From the moment I walked in, I was immediately drawn to the warm and inviting atmosphere, which perfectly complemented the brewery's excellent selection of beers. The first thing that struck me was the knowledgeable and friendly staff. The passionate brewmasters were more than happy to guide me through the impressive range of craft beers on offer, patiently addressing all my queries and explaining the unique brewing processes. Their dedication and expertise truly elevated my tasting experience. Speaking of the beers themselves, I was blown away by the immense variety and exceptional quality. From hoppy IPAs to refreshing lagers and rich stouts, there seemed to be a brew to suit every palate. The brewers' commitment to using high-quality ingredients was evident in every sip, resulting in a lineup of well-balanced and flavorful options that left me wanting more. What sets this tap house apart, besides the exceptional beer, is the cozy and spacious interio. The ambiance strikes the perfect balance between rustic and contemporary, combining exposed brick walls, wooden accents, and comfortable seating. Whether enjoying a drink at the bar or relaxing with friends at a table, there was always a vibrant and convivial atmosphere that made me feel right at home. To my delight, the brewery also goes the extra mile by offering a delectable menu of food options to accompany their beers. From tasty appetizers to mouthwatering main courses, everything I tried was prepared with skill and presented beautifully. The staff was even kind enough to recommend beer and food pairings, which enhanced the overall dining experience. Finally, I must mention the outstanding service provided by the attentive staff. Their professionalism and genuine enthusiasm for their craft created a welcoming environment that went above and beyond my expectations. From suggesting new beers to providing timely service, they always ensured everyone had a fantastic time. If you're a beer enthusiast or simply looking for a great place to relax with friends, BuckStar Brewery is a must-visit. It's clear that this establishment is dedicated to delivering an exceptional brewery experience, and they have certainly succeeded. I'll undoubtedly be returning to explore more of their outstanding offerings. Cheers to the team at BUCKSTAR brewery for setting the bar so high!

One of the best places to meet friends with a friendly atmosphere and genuine taste food and beer.

Visited for the first time as we wanted to try a new bar/somewhere to have beer. Entered, were not greeted by any staff members and immediately took a dislike to the atmosphere. It was early on weekend, but there were only 1 other group of people in there. They've made an effort to make the seating/bar area look nice enough however right next to it, in plain view is the rest of the industrial unit which is wholly unappetising to sit next to and see into. I'd expect bar staff to have a good knowledge on the alcohol sold, as the premise is small and they make it themselves. However, when asked a simple question about which has less hops in it they couldn't tell me as they're only a bartender. Again, being a small independent brewery with only a few products I'd expect staff to be knowledgeable. On drinking, the evolve lager was horrible, tasted like drinking perfume or soap. Maybe that's a personal reaction my taste buds have with hops, but yuck. My partner had the Wolverton gin and she told me it tasted of nothing but pure alcohol and wasn't nice.

What a fantastic place! Just wish we found it sooner. Great vibe very friendly staff. Food and beer are very good! The pizza is especially good, we tried an off menu egg pizza and it was delicious! We'll be visiting again for sure!

Great place for an unfiltered beer and hand made pizza. Really friendly staff. No problem parking outside. Great variety of entertainment.

Love your beer then this is the place for you. A great little find.

Didn't try the food , would have loved to , but arrived a little late . Fantastic atmosphere 👏

Great customer service and some really nice food as well

Great pizza, lovely selection of ciders, beers and soft drinks, dog friendly… even provided dog treats too!!

Wonderful craft beer and friendly staff! Can't ask for more. They do a bangin pizza too.

Very friendly staff and great tasting beer. Limited food choice but that's ok, all organic.

Nicely fitted out place. Good selection of drinks. Went to see a band and sound was pretty good!

I’ve been to this venue a few times now. They have music nights, different entertainment and great food and organic drinks. Every time I go to the Brewery Tap, I have 2 experiences (at least); 1, I think wow this place is great, it’s even better than I thought last time and the 2nd is that I learn or experience something new and different. Last week, I went for a bite to eat and although I knew that there were board games, didn’t know that they had Scrabble! There’s such a casual vibe, mixed with the sense of being in a friend's trendy living room, with people who bring you food (even if you have to pay for it). I had pizza. There are 2 on the menu. I chose the one with truffles which was light crispy and tasted so fresh. My partner had chilli sauce added to theirs. It was enough to add a zing, but not too much to take away from the soft mozzarella. What added to the atmosphere is the casual lighting, friendly staff who have a chat, but don’t bug you and at the moment there’s also great art work for sale. I’d definitely recommend it.

Nice tap house style venue. It’s dog friendly. The beer was nice and the selection was interesting. We went for lunch so only tried a couple of beers. The food options were nice but somewhat selective. There’s a couple of pizza options, it might have been nice for one or two other pizza options but it’s been done for a reason. They do accommodate for vegans and gluten intolerances. The service was good. The server went out of his way to check on our dog and fuss on her. That’s always a guaranteed way to keep me happy 😊

Really nice warm tap house with a great beer selection

This venue offers sourdough pizzas and more.The cheesy sweet potato fries are an alternative to a jacket potato. Noted local ice cream is availble, Wash this down with organic beer,made on site,organic wine,ot one of the other drinks available.This bar is cozy,a real fire,board games and art on the walls for sale. Vegan is catered for inthe Pizza world too

Deffinately be going back...Hail 2 Ale.

Really enjoyed my first visit last night very friendly atmosphere fab band and great sax will be back for sure :-)

Discovered this place whilst attending Catrin’s Monthly Yoga workshop. Two varieties of Pizza with sourdough, both super tasty especially with chilli oil. Extras have now been added to the menu such as buffalo cheese and tomato salad and sweet potato loaded fries. Good selection of beer and organic Italian wine, along with the lovely atmosphere and welcome what’s not to like?

Cool and cozy place with great beers, good pizza and coffee.

Amazing, truly a hidden gem worth visiting. Great pizza and beer!

Great place to have a drink or two and a pizza 😀👍🍕🍻

We booked tickets for a Persian Night and it was fabulous. Great, high quality and tasty three course meal, fabulous music and a good range of beer, organic wine (and other drinks). All perfectly hosted by Datis.

I arrived for a unique board game evening: designed for singles to mingle! Great variety of games on offer, letting your inner child out. I thought it was a great idea and glad for events like these in MK. Makes a refreshing change from swiping right! Enjoyed the venue, atmosphere, people and locally brewed drinks. Will return soon for that pizza!

Great beers, very tasty pizza, attentive service, live music and djs, latin dance nights.

I come here once a week usually to buy a growler takeout of Belgian ale, sometimes I stay to listen to a band playing, or attending a networking event. I like the atmosphere and my dog enjoys the nibbles.

Great brewery- lovely owner with nice friendly atmosphere pizzas smelled great good range of drinks 🍸 🍺 🍻 👌 😀 😊

Amazing pizzas, I had mushroom and husband had Margherita. Both excellent. Bitter and Belgian beer very good and went down a treat. Very helpful and friendly staff.

Such a good night with craft beers and live music! Upstairs had a freestyle-type vibe which really hit off, and starred very talented musicians. The pizza was delicious, and the staff were super friendly and seemed to want to chat which is always a plus!

Tried both pizza options and they were amazing, down to the crust. The kombucha has a classic taste. Friendly staff. It’s got everything!

It pains me to put this, but this is an absolute gem of a place in Milton Keynes. The pain is I want to keep this to myself and my family as its a quality establishment!! Highly recommend a visit to buckstar you'll be greeted with a smile from the owner and if he is not about one of the very tenative members of staff. The beers are amazing, must say the Belgium beer is my favourite add a few organic pizza's to your order and sit and relax in the very chilled and comfortable environment. They have a shelf with games on and another shelf with toys to entertain the little ones, also from time to time there is live music on and other events. Get yourself down there and enjoy quality beer :-)

A nice place to stop for a drink while on a walk. Looks like a good selection of beers, wish they had a gluten free option, but the Cider was nice.

Great intimate place with fab atmosphere

Superb place to get freshly brewed beer. Really nice space, a warm welcome and great beer!

Great local microbrewery all made in house with a friendly and welcoming atmosphere! Good selection of beers including a draft alcohol free beer for the drivers as well as wines and a cold sections of bottled drinks both alcoholic and alcohol free so caters for all. Food selection is also great with pizzas made in house and the quality is great. Local art is also displayed and listed for sale which is another great selling point as it encourages local creativity.

Nice set up but beer was expensive. Beer served in jugs with at least 25mm of froth. When we asked for a top up, staff were oblivious to the fact that the pint jugs that they used were not oversized (lined), fortunately after checking they did top up the beers so we did end up with something near a pint of liquid.

Nice atmosphere, 10+ for pizza .....delicious 👏

Cracking place to call in if you're walking the dog across the canal towpath in the area or at any other time (dogs welcome). We'll laid out pub area incorporating the brewery. Tried 3 of the beers, all tasted great. Tried their mushroom and truffle sourdough pizza, very nice. Refreshing filtered beers, tasty food and friendly staff.

Fabulous place, great beers and sourdough Pizzas, also a very welcoming atmosphere, I mean this place Rocks

The sun finally came out and we were looking for somewhere to go close to the canal and saw this place on Google maps. A quick look at the overview and we saw there was a festival on raising money for Harry's Rainbow. Being local, we walked across the road to check it out and were pleasantly surprised. Proper craft beer and cider at reasonable prices, in a fun location with the brewery on site. Highly recommended.

This was a gem of a find. Fresh sourdough pizzas and organic wine. They also brew their beer so for anyone loving beer and pizza, get yourself down there! As an FYI, if you are a Wolverton local and decide to walk in the dark, take a torch as part of the route is very, very dark.

Nice atmosphere, good service, and great beer. Would be good to have a choice of pizza, not just Margarita.

I’ve visited the tap house a few times now and love having an option like this locally in Milton Keynes. The beers are excellent and the pizza’s are a great addition and made properly. A great way to spend an afternoon or evening and will be visiting again soon.

Fantastic atmosphere, friendly and knowledgeable staff. Some of the best pizza's in Milton Keynes.

Tastes like a real beer unlike Carling or Fosters

Great small brewery with a nice range of beers and some bottled ciders, you can do take-home including refillable growlers. They have a surprisingly nice indoor and outdoor cafe area with coffee and cake.

Went there with expectations of having a different taste of beer. Tried their most famous and my God, it was really amazing. Better than big brands. Added freshly made pizza, served with smile by owner himself. Nice music and amazing beer. Had a lovely evening...a must revisit.

Popped in to see what the place was. Friendly bar tender and owner. Interesting ale and a nice lager for home. Well worth it.

Great hidden gem of a place with artisan produce.

Outstanding! Superb beer in the brewery tap, and one of the finest pizzas I have had in years. Dog friendly. Very good young barlady. Will be back!

I have just read the review by "Maya Sfakianaki". You need to be aware that people taking such jobs as you offer are frequently on the bread line. They cannot afford to work (oh sorry I mean train, no sorry I mean observe) for no pay for two days. That week they will go hungry. You really need to look at your business practices and stop exploiting people in this way. No where else could you get away with this. Such businesses as yours really should be boycotted by decent people. I hope you will change your business practice and treat people decently.

Visited the tap room - great fresh beer and friendly, knowledgeable staff. Fantastic sourdough pizza too. Well worth stopping by

Great service, great beer. Not much more to say.

They ask people who apply to work for them to do 2 x 8 hours WITHOUT any payment. No need to try the beer of people that take advantage of the ones in need.

I buy it every weekend at the QP Farmer’s market. Pale Ale and Lager are awesome and love the 0 wast approach.
