Cricketers in Milton Keynes - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

Great pub, reasonable price & nice atmosphere. Food is good, very tasty; I still want some of that peri peri sauce though!

The staff r very friendly and the food is very delicious and the drinks r good

Perfect place for a pint and quick food . Also having a pool table and dart board keeps me entertained.

Good pub, nothing to complain about, lovely stuff also

always friendly and welcoming! me and my family/friends always go in for a few games of pool, and it's back down to £1 so very happy.

Food was absolutely delicious Stephanie's service was out of this world will definitely be coming again

Value for money for sure, decent management and good workers especially Steph making me and my partner comfortable and making sure food comes out correctly if you don't like certain things on your plate... Deffo see us back here 👍🏼

Had a few hours to kill after taking granddaughter to interview. Meal was cheap and but tasted good . Gamon steak good wife had scampi good aswell .beer good service excellent.

Nice place, good people and the food is great

Sells gluten-free in bottles. Good local pub in Oldbrook Milton Keynes overlooking the sports field. Nice on a summers day to sit outside.

Low brow clientele. Left quickly when even the barman started swearing at the football.

Stephanie was a great help when picking the gin

Always have the best experience here, can never complain with the food made by the chef Steph and always a service with a smile from Luke at the bar. Absolutely love this pub.

Great wee pub had a blast with the staff, Dave was as mad as a brush when he found out we were from Scotland he started pouring shotts of whisky to see how long we would last needless to say he called a taxi and made sure we all got back to the hotel top bloke

Great pub staff and service always excellent with a good selection of food to choose from

Just dropped off client at end of session

Sports club...Great atmosphere for watching games

Rude staff and the the quality of the food was poor

Returned for another fantastic Meal

Very good! You get what you pay for and more. It is a cheap alternative with good alcohol and food

Brilliant big pub and close to city centre friendly staff free wi-fi live tv sports brilliant pool table and dart board toilets are clean great food and cheap I ain't been here since the pandemic so visited today and played 4 games of pool not great price for £1.50 but still worth it and had a pint of diet coke and prawn crisps probably my favourite Greene King pub in MK

Services are really bad... food are taste bad and drinks are mixt with water

Great pub in the heart of oldbrook, I had a fantastic afternoon today,met up with a friend had a lush lunch (fish & chips mushy peas with a side of tarter sauce & bread & butter followed by a few games of prize bingo :0) would definitely recommend this pub great food & the staft are friendly. Lots of options on the menu to choose from . The toilets are spacious & clean,The outside is lovley & clean. The pub is child friendly & accross the road is a park .

Ok for the football, nice outside area in nice weather

On Sunday 17th December we had a family Christmas lunch at the Cricketers before going to the Panto in MK. We’d booked a table for ten adults and two small children and were very impressed to find that our table had been prepared very well with complimentary Christmas crackers and children’s variety packs. We had pre-ordered the food, which was served promptly and was nicely cooked. Dan and his colleagues were very welcoming and the overall cost for both food and drink was very acceptable. We would have no hesitation in recommending this pub to anyone.

Excellent service and food was excellent value.

beer's good staff very friendly and atmosphere is perfect

ok we arrived mid afternoon,the first two food dishes were gone (fish),the gammon & eggs were very nice,as was the wifes lasagne.drinks were good.nice atmosphere & good lay out.would go back if in the area.

Great pub and owner - felt really welcome

Slow, very slow. Understaffed probably.

Such a nice pub! Amazing food and service! Friendly staff and great beer

Great staff, great atmosphere and every mans fave….beer and football :D

Always good service and at a good price 👍

Went today and the girl working on the bar in the nicest possible way seemed like she didn't have a clue. She seemed very forgetful and confused all the time, she actually forgot to put through a part of an order on our table meaning one of us had to wait for it to be done while everyone else was eating. By the time it arrived everyone had already finished their plates. She then proceeded to walk through the restaurant area with a cigarette hanging out of her mouth... Food was ok-ish. The tables actually felt like they'd not been whipped over at all. The only decent thing was the doggy table with treated and water, that was a fantastic idea and a friendly touch.

Great local pub. The food was tasty and served in good time. 👍

Really friendly place, great staff. Great evening.

A Classic English Pub Experience I recently had the pleasure of visiting the Cricketers in Oldbrook, and I must say, it was a delightful experience. This quaint English pub exudes the charm and warmth you'd expect from a traditional local watering hole. Atmosphere: The ambiance at the Cricketers is quintessentially English. With its dark wooden beams, cozy nooks, and the soft hum of chatter, it's a welcoming place to unwind. The decor, adorned with cricket memorabilia, adds a unique touch to the pub's character. Food: I opted for a classic hamburger during my visit, and I was pleasantly surprised. The burger was juicy, cooked to perfection, and came with a generous serving of crispy, golden fries. It's clear that they take pride in their pub grub. The menu offers a variety of options for all tastes, and the quality certainly shines through. Drinks: I paired my meal with a Jack Daniels and Cola, which was expertly mixed. The drink had just the right balance of flavors, making it a perfect companion to my meal. The Cricketers offers a well-stocked bar with a variety of choices to suit your preferences. Service: The staff at Cricketers were attentive and friendly. They made sure my dining experience was enjoyable, and their knowledge of the menu and drink selections was evident. Overall, the Cricketers in Oldbrook offers a classic English pub experience. Whether you're looking for a hearty meal, a well-poured drink, or a cozy atmosphere to relax in, this pub delivers. I'll be returning to savor more of their offerings in the future. It's a hidden gem in Oldbrook, and I highly recommend it to locals and visitors alike.

Great atmosphere, right next to lish green field in Oldbrook. Outdoor seating is good and inside seating arrangement with traditional pub 🎵 music. Food is kind of ok and this is the bit where I am ranking low. We ordered Chicken wings and it was not quite upto mark, not at all crispy. May be I am comparing it with others but that's what it is. I prefer it to be crispy, crunchy. I didn't try other dishes so it would make sense to try them. Drinks are perfect Overall good place to visit

Came twice and both times the service was terrible. It literally took more than one hour to bring ONE starter (chicken wings) and then nearly another hour for the main. They were understaff i guess and the tables were really dirty. Deffinetly don't recommend.

You are hit by the stench of the men's toilet as you enter. The aggressive local "gangster" brigade guard the door and make for an uncomfortable welcome. Staff are pleasant if not a little abrupt and aggressive. Usual bar offerings, food at best rudimentary and edible. Best avoided

This place is situated in such a beautiful area.there's a beautiful playground right next to it.lovely atmosphere

Huge change since new manager taken over. Old & New faces returning. Lovely clean, really friendly staff. Food is much better, and entertainment nights are back on. Just what this pub needed, furniture, all been reupholstered looks much better.

Fairly mediocre pub, but with a lovely terrace overlooking the former cricket green. Definitely a fair weather venue.

Was told it was a dog friendly pub , but clearly not human friendly. if you wont to feel safe and have a drink, don't go there!!!

The food is great,,and affordable had a lovely time there.. 😋

I did not go in, I picked up my children from their fathers day meal. So cannot comment on anything except the car park.

Food OK, staff friendly but pub needs an update and clean. Toilets need a good deep clean scrub top to bottom.

Very nice clean pub....spotless. Bar staff and manager great... faultless. Well kept house. . Community pub with many locals in it, obviously their life line to life. We and they need theses places... Don't know about the food never tried it, but I am sure it suits the locals requirements.

Only a 10 minute walk from corporate MK centre here is a propper pub I ordered a burger and got to choose chili poppers curry sauce and egg on my burger I ordered an extra portion of chips ( as did not read the description that my burger came with fries ) bit was not disappointed the chips were fluffy and mopped up the rest of the curry sauce. Would get 5* but green king only sell certain beers but if you can get over that well worth a visit

Friendly and welcoming staff, lovely food ... a nice time had by us.

Great food and staff. Well worth a visit.

Went with Friends after having dinner somewhere else and they rang the bell just as we were walking in, 11pm, so early, We end up in Brewdog.

Great attitude to customers with kids

Went here for an impromptu meal and was pleasantly surprised, we both had Gammon served with egg,chips and peas. The meal came up nice and hot and very well cooked, the eggs were perfect and whole not broken. The server was very polite, and came back to ensure all was well with our meal. Would recommend good quality and very good price.

OK local pub, walking distance from The Hub. Greene King beers, so can't go too far wrong there. I love the Chicago Sloppy burger - worth a visit just for that. The burger itself has a nice "home made" coarse texture to it and it is accompanied by a little pot of beef dripping gravy you can dip your chips in. Nice. Edit: Upgraded to 4 star after the pub changed its policy to allow dogs inside. 👍

Bar service is poor and some of the staff are not helpful

Great Manager and friendly helpful staff, Great food and the regulars make you feel welcome.

The food was typical pub food but the staff were very good.

8 people 8 meals 8 drinks £60 on a Sunday as well very good value. Will definitely be back ***** Photos taken after starting to eat....

Fantastic food. Large portions. Friendly. 2nd time this week. Had the chicken nan and the gammon. Both beautiful.

A pleasant Greene King pub, we only went for a couple of beers and on the Tuesday evening it was reasonably quiet. The food menu looked to be varied and reasonably priced with a number of offers. The pub has a nice outside seating area

Spent Saturday afternoon there watching arsenal game with the kids good pint good for sport New chef tried her hardest took time but food was mint 👌

Good food good beer friendly staff parking area bit dangerous with large potholes

Wow! This place has turned around so much since Dan took over. He’s got a decent team and can keep a great pint! I’ll be back for sure

This pub is really starting to turn around. The new manager Dan appears to be making a real impact

A lovely Christmas Day meal...awesome.

Nothing changes in this place. Same people, just different faces. Good to catch up with some of the old crowd and have a drink to say goodbye Bob. Shame about the singer - even the upbeat songs were depressing. Suspect we'll be leaving it another few years before going in there again. A shame really as we spent so much of our 20s in there and it was a great pub back then.

regular english food, friendly service

Love this place very nice very down-to-earth great people great atmosphere

Lovely bar staff warm and welcoming recommended

Shows all football, does food , and Tia's a good host , all needs met

Took the Neices as its their favourite place to go. Either that or they know there are toys in those machines??

I only had a drink here. Very good customer service

Good pub, food is excellent quality for the price. The manager Dan is friendly and approachable. Would recommend

Cheap food for a reason, chef mic-rowave. Food isn't great, service isn't great, food comes at different times and long wait. Pub is decorated lovely and very clean. Such a shame.

Stopped coming here but have recently returned here the new assistant manager is a great host and makes everyone feel very welcome and has introduced great music. The new kitchen manager / manager seems polite and fod is of a OK standard

Nice pub been there for years Friendly staff could have done with a bit more atmosphere when we were there but it was quite

Depends on the day food not always available

Really good venue, friendly staff and patrons! Would recommend!

Cricketers is one place where you can relax. It's a nice quiet bar and provides a serene ambience - both outside and inside. The food is also excellent and a good value for money.

Got to see F1 and the girl working was amazingly helpful with everything 👍

Filthy. Garden ashtrays didn't look like they'd been emptied this decade, sticky chairs and tables. Ubiquitous unparented child running around annoying the rest of the customers whilst Daddy pondered getting another neck tattoo. Greene King, so too few staff and no motivation to actually serve. Company looks like it's going under

Good pub to watch football with a lot TVs around.

Not enough stuff in this place.empy glasses all around.

Food was great value and tasty quick service and staff were friendly will be going back

Nice clean pub, very courteous staff and service

Spacious pub, good range of beer and overlooks Oldbrook green.

Not been there for a while. Have to say it needs a complete refurbishment. The Staff spent more time outside or in the kitchen out back. Always waitjng to be served. Just as well it was quite.

Love going there for food and drinks!! Awesome bar staff.

Totally disappointed, i received my order in around 40 min and the stake was could and not well done how i was asked, i wasn't informed that i have only salat ,no sausage for salat. Desert was tasty( cheesecake with icecream). The employers didnt asked me why i didn't eat...sorry guys for one star but you don't deserve more Regards from Switzerland 🇨🇭

I don’t always judge a place on other peoples reviews as I like to experience places for myself so popped in on Saturday for a crafty pint. All in all I found this pub to be very friendly, busy and well run, staff were only to happy to help. Great atmosphere and family friendly, nice beer garden. I will definitely return with no hesitations.

Fish was burnt and tasteless never again

Came in for the champions League final, although busy service was still speedy and somehow with a smile. Tegan was absolutely brilliant and was able to attend to all of my needs. Could not recommend this pub more if you enjoy your sports

Very friendly service and really tasty food, will definitely return A1

I really do hate to leave bad reviews, this place is in a lovely spot and the garden area is great but waiting 45 minutes for 2 pies, mash and peas when there was only 1 other customer in the whole pub that had ordered food is enough for me to leave some bad feedback. Earlier in the day it had been warned there was a 30 minute wait on food, this was when the pub was full for football but now empty I don't think that level of wait is good for anyone. To be also told at 35 minutes that the pies were ready, and that the chef was doing the other bits and it then taking a further 10 minutes indicates the mash and peas had not even be prepped at all. No mention of the time waited when served the food which may have avoided this overall sour experience just for a simple pub pie and mash! Check your tickets and time of order when taking food out!

Great place to have family day, staff amazing

Local hub, good folk, nice setting and all salt of the earth 🙏✨💛

Great Sunday roast and a pint as always

Came in for a family meal, food cooked well ordered the googly pizza it was cooked to perfection, great service from Tom on the bar when we went up for drinks, will definitely be returning !

Great Greene King pub, friendly staff, a good pint and decent cheap food that does the job! Also brilliant for watching live sport.
