Had my wife's birthday here (oct 24) and did the party package. It was fantastic, Claire and the team took care of it all and this made it do strss free. The guests and wife had so much fun. We had guests stay over and they were very happy with the accommodation and breakfast in the morning was great. Really recommended, charming venue, happy staff and great food.

Drove over an hour to meet here with friends for dinner on a Monday night. Called ahead to enquire about vegan options and when we got there, the chef had created a full vegan menu with over 6 mains and starters! Really appreciated this service, they went above and beyond and so unusual to find this in pubs . We had the bean chili, mango salad and burger & chips from the vegan choices which were all amazing. Burger was wholefood, home made and really tasty. We felt very welcome and could enjoy a nice evening with other non-vegans (who's meals were also top notch) and didn't feel like we were a nuisance as it's so often the case. Thank you!

After seeing The Dukes on Hotel Inspector revisited we cancelled our other booking elsewhere and booked The Dukes. We were not disappointed. Checked in here for 3 nights to allow our daughter to play at Woburn golf club, (only an easy 9 minutes drive away) Room was well equipped, tea, coffee, milk, mugs, water, glasses. We requested a mini fridge which was brought to us. We ate dinner in the pub each night and were pleased with the selection of freshly prepared food. Chicken and ham pie and brisket burger well recommended. All of the staff were professional and made us welcome, a very friendly landlady who is passionate about The Dukes. We would not hesitate to stay again. Thank you sarah for making us welcome

Popped into The Dukes every evening from Thursday to Sunday whilst staying locally. The pub area is comfortable, quaint and historical. All the staff encountered were extremely friendly, professional and extremely patient with us and our rescue dog who barks incessantly in new places. We were able to work on his nervousness and he soon settled down.

Ok pub. Very fast table service for drinks during the England game, staff were right on keeping drinks served. But that might be because it was worryingly quiet……should be rammed for an England game!

Went for Sunday Roast. It was absolutely fabulous. More than enough to eat, food was beautifully cooked and presented and hot. Lovely veg to go with and, of course, proper gravy! Service was exceptional we only dealt with a couple of young ones but they were both brilliant. Will return and and bring our friends.

Stayed here 2 nights from a voucher. But had to spend an extra £60 to stay over Saturday. So essentially cost £160, not including breakfast. So not massively cheap considering the quality. Right the room. Number 1. Bed was ridiculously creaky and the pillows lumpy, simply put, they need replacing. The shower was Luke warm at best, and with no shower curtain, the floor was consistently wet. The tatty heater worked but just brought the room down. Just needs some tlc. The pub itself was lovely and tried to book an evening meal, but they had a function on the one night, so went elsewhere. The one morning we had breakfast, which didn't start to 10am. We had a full English and veggy breakfast @ £10 each including tea was very reasonable and cooked very nice.

Popped in for a meal, we were seated, menu was quite limited, I had the special which was a brisket burger and my partner had the sausage and mash, when the food come out we were shocked at the size of the portions , my burger was luke warm as was my chips, we didn't get asked if everything was okay with our meal until we had nearly finished neither did we get asked if we wanted any sauces. Quite dissapointed as I have been told good things about this pub the the burger was extremely overpriced for what it was as £18.50, I myslef work in a pub and was very dissapointed in the service provided

I booked The Dukes after seeing them advertise venue hire. This was perfect for my mums 60th birthday party. All the team were very attentive on arrival. It was decorated brilliantly (I didn't even ask for decorations) and this was done stunningly, with the fairy lights and banners. I ordered the buffet (classic finger buffet, sausages, sausage rolls, chicken skewers, spring rolls) which was amazing. Everyone commented on how much they enjoyed the food, and it was the perfect amount too with hardly any leftovers. The lad behind the bar was lovely, same as the young girl. We kept asking them to put in certain songs and nothing was too much trouble, even though they were serving behind the bar they were really good, and very quick serving us too. Thank you to Sarah for sorting this for us. Everyone had a brilliant evening.

We spent a long weekend at The Dukes for my husbands birthday and had breakfast both mornings as well as Sunday Lunch in the pub. Where do I start .... the pub is only quite small but has real character with a log burner in the middle of the room - we managed to sit on the sofa's near the log burners for drinks and it was so cosy I could have stayed all night. Breakfast is amazing with lots of choice including cereals / yoghurt to start, full english and then croissants as well as coffee/tea throughout perfect to set you up for the day. I'd read reviews before the stay on how good the Sunday Dinners were so booked for that too - and wow it was amazing - I had the beef which just melted in the mouth and my husband had the pork and crackling - the veg all came in side dishes and there was ample and we couldn't fault any of it. The staff are all very friendly and helpful and together with Sarah, the owner, made our stay just perfect!

Came here for Sunday lunch - our waitress was VERY attentive but the waiter looked like he didn’t really want to be there. Sunday dinner was passable ..we were very disappointed. Five small roast potatoes which were very hard.. beef was nice but not enough gravy, cauliflower cheese was good but small bowl containing a few carrot batons, small amount of red cabbage between two people wasn’t enough. Frozen Yorkshire pudding was burnt! . Ginger crumble has very little filling.. It’s rare to leave a pub still hungry after a Sunday roast! Also cutlery very cheap and cheap wine glasses .. sorry we won’t be returning but I wish you well. Unfortunately my own roast dinner is so much better !! We were also overcharged .. desert should have been included in price .£50 for two people is excessive..

Visited for Sunday lunch with my husband and two children. Had arranged to view the function room which we had provisionally booked for my parents anniversary next month. We had 2 adults roasts and 2 children’s, 3 desserts and a bottle of wine and the bill was £85. We’ve paid similar prices before but the portions were much smaller than expected and food pretty average. The service was a bit slow but friendly. As planned after the meal I asked to see the room. I was told they didn’t have time (there were only 3 tables eating). Considering I had made this trip specifically for this purpose I was very disappointed. I felt now they had got my money they weren’t interested. Won’t be going through with the party booking (which incidentally they couldn’t find in the diary despite email confirmation from Sarah the manager - who was also present at the time we were eating but never spared the time to speak to us). They’ve lost out on business, very strange way to treat a customer! Won’t be returning.

Christian and Sarah were fantastic and very helpful as it was a surprise party, they let me bring a Birthday cake in and cut it for us. Christian made me and my friends Pornstar martinis my favourite cocktail even though it was not on the menu.

We visited here last night and had a lovely time. Starters- calamari and pate was great, caprese salad was ok but felt like it was missing something, some more balsamic glaze, rocket (greenery) wouldn’t go amiss. Main courses- steaks were amazing and would come back again just for these. Although one wasn’t cooked as asked this was sorted quite promptly. Sausage and mash- sausages were lovely but could’ve done with a bit more mash and peas as quite a small serving. Lamb was nice but the roast potatoes weren’t cooked the best. All in all, a lovely, reasonable meal and would return although there were a few improvements that could be made hence a 4 star

Were not allowed to sit down inside because "we can push tables closer". There were more free tables than taken.

The deal is not as advertised. We went in as a family of four and the kids had what we thought was bogof on the sweet waffles. As I went to pay I questioned why we had been charged full price to which the young waitress said almost laughing that it is only on adult waffles - not mentioned in the advert? Also as a side the size of the adult gf waffle has decreased in size massively and we waited 20 minutes for our order to be taken. As a positive it is nice to have gf options and the food did arrive fairly quickly once we had managed to place an order. Such a shame as it is in a convenient location.
