A local pub for local people. Not unwelcoming but not welcoming at the same time

Was visiting Bedford and found this pub to watch the England match. It was a very friendly atmosphere, great bbq food. We were made to feel very welcome by all the staff. Would definitely recommend

Came here yesterday for the first time to watch the England game. They had set out the garden with a few gazebos a sofa and a lovely BBQ. I will definitely be back for some more chicken! Great local pub in bedford! #balloonsjerksauce

Nice cosy pub with a lovely warm vibe. In the winter there is a lovely fire and fresh and crisp Guinness and a great selection of premium beers to choose from. Sporting events are always treated with great panache. Friendly and welcoming staff that work within the pub.

Well, I’d love to tell you what the balloon is like these days, but the opening times are wrong hence when we walked there last night after the Bedford Park concert it was as dead as flares at 11 o’clock. Fortunately did find another place open and spent a very pleasant hour awaiting a taxi there instead.

This certainly has more of a ‘locals / regulars’ vibe and the decor could do with updating, but don’t let that put you off as it’s a friendly pub and nice enough for a drink. The open fire is great during the colder months and for catching up with the sport it’s a brilliant option. The bar staff were friendly and quick with the service, there’s a good range of drinks and the prices reasonable enough for the setting. It’s not really in a location you’d stumble upon, but I’d return if I was passing again in the future.

This place was okay, went in for a pint of strongbow dark fruits with a couple mates, service was satisfactory, can’t complain about the strongbow, we went to play a game on the pool table however it was damaged to the point that it wasn’t worth paying for a game, sat outside to catch up with my mates and left after 10 minutes

We are absolutely thrilled with our choice of venue for our reception and overnight stay! From start to finish, the experience was nothing short of exceptional. The reception was beautifully organized, and the setting was perfect—elegant, intimate, and exactly what we had envisioned. The staff went above and beyond to ensure everything ran smoothly, and their attention to detail was impeccable. They were friendly, professional, and truly made us feel special throughout the entire event. Staying overnight in the room overlooking the river was the cherry on top. The view was breathtaking, and the roll-top bath added a touch of luxury that made our stay even more memorable. The room was spacious, beautifully decorated, and spotlessly clean. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience. This venue exceeded all our expectations, and we highly recommend it to anyone looking for a perfect blend of stunning surroundings, outstanding service, and unforgettable moments. Thank you to the entire team for making our day so magical! Highly recommended!

Had lunch after walking with local rambling group. A little wait despite pre-ordering but not complaints about our meals.

We ordered a Chinese last week as we have always used wok Inn, but this time it tasted different, it was literally the best Chinese we have ever had! We found out a few days later that they are new owners, and they are so lovely and had great customer service. Definitely recommend trying them. We even got fortune cookies.

Popular local chippie, good range of food at decent prices. Might be more efficient service, chips sometimes a bit mushy. But I'll keep going there.
