The Kingfisher Newport Pagnell in Milton Keynes

Just had the chicken wings, Really Good, i would highly reccomend, Staff so professional and welcoleming Great pub esp if you want to watch the Football Get yourself down here you wont regret it.

Having not visited England for sometime and looking to meet up with an old friend, I researched for bars in the Milton Keynes area that was central for us both. I came across the Kingfisher Newton Pagnell. Just a short taxi ride from Wolverton. Our experience was great. Admittedly it was during the week and before the general Rush hour. The staff were courteous and the Guinness and food were good. Being a pretty good cook I can be pretty critical. I was suitably impressed. Would definitely recommend this pub as a causal meeting place. Keep up the good work. Mark G Elie, MB, Canada

The staff were friendly, the food was good, the cocktails were cool, the restaurant and bar areas were generally clean, we will be back.

Wonderful service from Lottie on the bar! Efficient service and smiles all round, would 100% come again because she made our visit so special. Thank you Lottie!

Great place, amazing staff, friendly, efficient service, the staff are helpful and answer any questions immediately. Food is very nice, well cooked and tasty The pub is also Dog friendly which is great and they have water bowls for the dogs too. App don’t can order at the table or you can order at the bar. Easy!

Can’t fault service at all, staff really helpful and polite, portions a bit light but very good. Just wondering why there’s no steak?

Came today for the £5 burger day! Was a really good meal! Really good value, Lottie was very polite and helpful and couldn’t do enough for us, will be coming back! Many thanks again!

Came in for a quick bite but stayed for the rum and band - great night. Staff friendly and helpful. Band was fun and choice of darts and pool available so win all round

Real nice bar meal, it really was the best burger for a while. Excellent value. Beer spot on too. To top it off the staff were friendly and welcoming. Thank you, we will be back again.

Came here a few weeks ago and ordered lasagne, it came burnt black and the knife couldn't even cut into it so I sent it back. Ordered lasagne again today and it was the same, burnt black and again the knife couldn't even cut into it so I sent it back. I was then told by their staff that I'm banned from ordering lasagne again (like a naughty child)! I did mention that if they didn't burn it to a crisp then it wouldn't get sent back. I've been coming here for years but now it's time to find somewhere else

I have been going to the kingfisher quite often and have been served by a lovely lady with blonde hair. She’s kind and makes you feel very welcome!

Wouldn't recommend on our experience , the 3 off us ordered Fish and Chips, took ages, then was all burnt batter and wafer thin burnt fish. When I complained, all she said was sorry about that will pass your comments to the chef. Should have offered refund, it was inedible

I popped in last weekend for some lunch with a couple friends. Lex greeted us with a smile and made us feel welcome instantly. We haven’t been to the Kingfisher before so it was lovely to be made to feel at ease. The team were chatty and served us our drinks quickly, they recommended the Lilleys cider which was delicious! We sat in the pub and it was full of life, you can tell the team look after their guests as i noticed on several occasions that they were pouring drinks for guests who much have been regulars so it was ready for them by time they got to the bar. This is a lovely touch. We grabbed a bite to eat, i had the Mango chicken kebab which was superb! It was well presented and nice and hot. We are so glad we stopped by this gem of a pub and will definitely be returning. I will be recommending to friends and family

We decided to go for a meal at kingfisher , we had not booked but we were met with lovely friendly staff nothing to much trouble, we chose corn beef hash pie with veg and chips , the pie was delicious lovely pastry very tasty filling served quickly and fresh and hot outstanding value for money , because we had enjoyed main so much we had the apple pie and custard again delicious loads of apple plenty of custard , the pub is very family friendly easy to park and I would highly recommended worth trying for meal

While out for a walk I saw this place on Google Maps & tracked it down for Drinkies. Warm welcome & good service & good Strongbow. Menu looked good for another time. Loads of TVs for the Sport. Also a good beer garden.

Came for lunch and was greeted with a friendly smile and welcoming staff. The atmosphere was great and the staff looked like they were enjoying being there. I had great service and fantastic food, great prices too! Enjoyed a delicious cold beer in the garden which looks like it's had some work done to it since my last visit, looks great!

Horrible place wouldn’t recommend to anyone especially families aggressive staff and made to feel uncomfortable by staff in there

Lovley pub very welcoming atmosphere. Food was good Finn and other staff very very friendly defo recommend x

All the staff are super friendly and helpful. Finlay being in front of house, always has a smile on his face. Molly in the kitchen preparing food to a top quality The food was delightful and came within good time.

Came here for a meal with a friend and the food was good. Number one reason I'd come back is because your staff member named Finlay is absolutely lovely. Went above and beyond and does it all with a smile. Thanks again

Came for lunch with my mum as we are new in the area and we wanted to try the local pub. The new menu looks amazing, great range of food at great prices. We ordered lunch and the food was delicious, served hot and didn’t have to wait too long either. The service from Finlay was second to none! Friendly and approachable, nothing was too much bother and he was very knowledgeable too. All in all my mum and I will be returning!

We had a great night with friends at this community pub, nestled in my friends estate. The team were lovely and the prices are really reasonable. Well done to the team.

We booked for breakfast with santa for my son and nephew 2years and 2 months and 2 years and 6 months.When arriving tables were laid out with letters for? the children to write to santa, telling him about themselves and what they would like for Christmas. A cracker was also placed on the table. And this was the first problem arose. The crackers when pulled were obviously not designed for children as several were filled with marbles, or pointed golf tees and other items which were unsafe for small children. This then ment removing the prizes. The second issue which presented itself was the drinks which were offered was given in glasses again not really suitable for small children. It would have been better for plastic cups or even fruit shoots style drinks to be offered. There was a long delay for food to arrive. Which considering was pre ordered should have been prepared in advance. We was told that the adults couldn't order until the kids had all green served. Santa arrived and each child spent time with him and he chatted and provided a present (which was a selection pack.) they were then each given a cup with oats and could select a coloured glitter to make raindeer food. Over all the visit with santa the breakfast making raindeer food and writing their letters was fantastic value at £6 however I would have rather paid a little extra and have crackers which were suitable for the kids. Ie with stickers or drawing items or even suitable sweet packs in. The adults food took far to long at nearly a hour to arrive. By which time the children had completed all their activities and were bored and not able to sit still while the adults ate. And the food was seriously terrible out of 4 adults with 2 eggs on each plate only 2 eggs were not burnt underneath. Not one of the adults could eat the bacon it was tough not even because it was served crispy but tough because it was like rubber. The chips were hard and under cooked the beans were cold. This breakfast has. Made us all realise we would never want to return for food again. We were told the wait was because they were so busy however including our table I believe there was only 6 or 7 tables of families all of which the kids had been pre booked for. And not all adults were eating. Discussing with another table who's adults had also ordered food they said the same as us the food was terrible and wished they hadn't ordered(note I have recently been to a different local pub for a breakfast with...... And the service was so much better and food organised so children and adults came out together. Plus the food was actually delicious and edible) The kingfisher could make it so much better with a little more thought into what is suitable for small children. Being prepared for the pre ordered breakfasts and also with a better cheif that can actually cook.

Lovely to see how the pub has changed! Looked after by all the team on shift, absolutely amazing! Thank you all so much for a lovely trip out for a family meal. Amazing atmosphere and friendly staff! Big extra thanks to Lottie for the gorgeous food too! Be back soon xo

A lovely time yet again at the ‘Fish’ with the amazing staff and crew including Lex the new manager. Staff are amazing and accommodating and go the extra mile to please their customers. Can’t wait for the planned Christmas get together my friends and I have here

Bar staff amazing. Molly is amazing always so helpful with my kids makes the pub so welcoming. Love coming over here with my daughters my favourite pub in Newport

I came down to the kingfisher today for the first time to see what it is like and to get a spot of lunch. When we pulled up I could tell it was a nice small pub and looked lovely from the outside. As we walked in we was greeted by the lovely Hayley who showed us to our table and told us when we are ready we can order at the bar. Once we had a look at the menu we went to the bar and gave our order to yet an other lovely lady called Alexis or was very smiley and friendly. We wasn’t sat down that long until our starter was ready the food was amazing and very hot. Nathan then brought us our mains the burger looked to die for and my partner was very happy with it….. he said it’s nice that you can build your own and add in extras that you like. I couldn’t finish my mains as I was soo full but I couldn’t complain the food was soo good considering they have a new chef but the lovely Lottie did an mazing job, I will definitely be visiting again. It’s worth more than the 5 stars for the staff alone soo friendly and very talkative can’t wait to go back and see what it’s like with Christmas decorations up.

I had a good experience at the kingfisher with my family. Food was amazing and the bar staff were lovely and welcoming and I couldn’t be more thankful for the service they provided to my family. However, there was a lady there I believe is the manager leaning at the end of the bar while all of the bar staff were hard at work, dressed in a unkept tracksuit and sliders, she did not look as though she wanted to be at work. There were many people waiting who were not noticed by her which was disheartening to see at such a lovely family local pub. I have been here for dinner many a times not so much recently as I feel management is no longer taken seriously here. I have seen many reviews on this lady and feel they should be noticed by the company. Keep up the good work bar staff & chefs!

Visiting family in Newport. After feeling like an outsider (even though I’d been to the pub numerous times)by some of the bar staff in the kingfisher, the manager went out of her way to make us feel welcome and also cheered my upset child who had fallen! Thankyou jacky will deffo be back now x

Ordered a kids meal and once finished we went to order kids pudding. They have asked an hour and a half wait for a brownie because there is a table of six to serve. It is not the first time that they hold the kitchen service because they have “big” tables. A table of six. The brownie is ready to put in the microwave and add a scoop of ice cream. The service unfortunately went down since they have changed the management team. We used to come here last summer and the garden was always full. Now it is empty all the time. Big shame

The Kingy has gone to s**t and the sole reason is the poor excuse of a manager!!!!!!!The rest of the staff are trying hard to keep smiling and keep the punters happy but that’s not easy when they have a Bully instead of a managerGreen King have a word and get our Kingy back to being a great pub!!!!!!!!

Great night out with family and friends. Angela stood out as a fantastic member of staff who gave service with a smile and was great at keeping on top of keeping our table clear of glasses ( a hefty feat as a lot was consumed !). Thank you Kingfisher and Angela. See you soon x

Great family pub with a park close for the kids. meals are reasonable priced and good variety of choices

Came in last week with the family. Kids loved having a park opposite, and I loved having a beer! Great staff! Great food! Very competitive prices! We will definitely be returning!

A beautiful place to visit in the sunshine and great food at a reasonable price. This is my second visit and the staff are still as amazingly friendly as the first visit and the kids love the staff as they are always making them smile and laugh! this is my first choice to come on a night out with the girls. highly recommended, a family friendly place x

Went yesterday evening, food was great the staff were helpful,tables cleaned,lovely garden out side,jacky who served us cant be more helpful.

Great all round pub! loads of tv screens, good food and most importantly a brilliant team of staff running it! Highly recommend!

This is the best pub for me and my family. I have 2 daughters 7 and 9 and my 7 year old has autism. The staff are amazing. And this is the only pub she copes at. The staff are amazing as is the manager Jackie

Me and My kids and My friends all met at this pub for food and drinks. It has a brilliant outdoor space, friendly staff, and a great atmosphere. The food was nice and we really enjoyed our visit. Would definitely recommend this as a family friendly pub. (There is also a park next door for the kids)

Just been to watch the football it is well managed by all the staff, So friendly and so so welcoming considering It was the first time I had been in, Highly recommended all rounder fantastic place and will 100% be returning and look forward to all the fun stuff the manager has planned for the place and guests

Had a great time in this pub Friday, have adapted well in covid times with use of the app and still very speedy service. The manageress Jacky cannot do enough for you very helpful and friendly. Food fantastic , prices decent, an all round enjoyable evening.

Many thanks to lottie, Louise, Nathan, Haley all did a great job under high pressure today! Will be back soon

Popped in for a light lunch with my partner, sun was shining so decided to sit in the garden which was nice and tidy, served by hayley who was polite and bubbly, both had the chicken and bacon salad that was very tasty, looking forward to bringing out son next time as right next to a huge field with a basket ball court and a play park, great work hayley and team, see you very soon x

Great place to have a drink with friends and family , lovely sun trap, great value on drinks and food ,staff are amazing and friendly, well done to The new land lady and her team .

Spacious pub with a great outdoors, park at the back for kids. The staff are friendly and efficient. The food was amazing! I can see us spending alot of time here this summer.

I visited the kingfisher pub yesterday with a couple of friends. First thing I noticed was how clean and tidy it was. We sat outside in the garden area and my kids played in the park situated right next to pub. Perfect. Really enjoyed it and will certainly be going back . Great place and helpful friendly staff.

My friends and I visited the Kingfisher pub on Friday night. We were warmly greeted by Jacky, the manager, who led us to our table. The atmosphere was lovely- the pub was clean and it was a really nice relaxed vibe.Lisa took our order and nothing was too much trouble. She was attentive and friendly. The food arrived promptly and was fresh and hot. It was delicious and excellent value. It was a superb visit and I would encourage people to come and visit. It’s under new management and the standard of service was very impressive.

Stopped off for a quick drink and bit to eat with my partner. We had a chat with a very helpful young man called Adam who told us how to do the food and drink ordering by the app. The food was amazing so thank you Adam It is a nice little pub will definitely be popping back .

This was our first visit out to the pub since covid lock down. We was over the moon with everything the service and safety was amazing and we will be looking forward to our next visit

Me and my friends went to the kingfisher for lunch, as we got there the door host was very friendly, showed us to our table, talked us through the pub safe. Had our own waitress which was fab. The manager came over to make sure everything was okay. All the staff made us feel very welcome, food was delicious. Couldn't fault a thing.

absolutely amazing atmosphere for family and friends absolute covid safe environment awesome staff that always keep distanced from each other also very friendly and helpful.

I went to the kingfisher with my son for something to eat, the service was wonderful, everyone was following the covid rules and I felt very safe, we was served by Ocean, a very friendly and polite young lady,who was very friendly and welcoming, we'd definitely go there again,would definitely recommend

Had an amazing meal, service and food was amazing. The manager greeted us. (I think his name was Glen). Who put us at ease with the new pub rules. Well done kingfisher for a amazing meal and a friendly relaxing atmosphere In the current climate we’re living in

Lovely family place to take the family, friendly staff made us feel safe under the new Covid-19 rules! Food was yummy arrived hot! Would recommend this pub to anyone!

we went here on saturday for lunch, it was busy but we felt very safe and was greeted at the door by the manager who sat us at table and explained the rules and told us what they are doing to keep us safe. we ordered from the 2 meals for £9.99 menu not expecting a massive dinner for that price, but it was too much for us to eat. the food it self was served hot and was full of flavour. we will be returning very soon we couldnt fault the service and the food. very friendly thank you.

Came in with family. Got food was great service. Very strong team all looked happy and very good atmosphere! Very clean!! would highly recommend

Came down and had the best evening, Sunday quiz was brilliant, me and my team felt very welcome, lottie helped with accessing the kwizbit website, and hosted a good night!, by far one off the best pub quizzes I’ve attended! Bar staff were polite and atmosphere was warming! Good job all! And great quiz!!

went here for the Quiz and something to eat amazing service and the quiz was great fun i will be returning every time the quiz is on and the food was served hot and was full of flavour

Nice food, polite staff, easy to use app for ordering and paying. Would have been 5 stars but for the "epic" desert at £4.49 which was nothing more than a thimble of ice cream in a tiny sundae glass, not what was expected.

I would like to write this review on the chef who cooked my food today. Food was outstanding and service was brilliant. Good came out on time and was cooked to a very Hugh standard! Shout out to Adam!

Fantastic pub and staff considering the current situation, they are all doing an amazing job. Service is perfect, quick and efficient. Food is always to a Hugh standard and served quickly and hot. Would 100% recommend

Amazing transformation since the new management have taken over. Very welcoming staff. Lovely food and feels very safe for the family.

amazing service, new management is an asset to the pub and the community. Fantastic service from start to finish. Host was excellent, food was delicious and the manager took the time to come over and talk to us. we was made very welcome and will definitely be going back.

Great food, perfectly cooked, beers were cheap. Good comfy atmosphere, and huge TVs to watch the footy on. Best pub in Newport Pagnell

the main bar staff are disrespectful, screamed at to finish our drinks and then told by their mother they’d rip my face off.

Local pub really. But the food is not great and arrives quite slowly. Burnt offering. Good chips. Inside the pub is decent and beer selection ok.

Good amount of TV screens. Good Food , Good Beer. Good Bar Staff. A great atmosphere to watch a footie game on the box.

Made contact with the manager in the weeks prior very helpful and receptive so we planned to go on a bus with 53 people (twitter @AndysBus )Another mini bus joined us and loads of car loads. We had an excellent day most people had food which was to a high standard. The pub was packed but the service was excellent and still managed to keep the meals coming out within 30 mins. Local customers were superb and it made for a memorable day. The pub had sports on the TV and a good sized beer garden. We will 100% return here. Can’t thank staff enough.Andy

Had a great night with friends celebrating a mates birthday. This is why I choose here ahead of other boozers. There is always a friendly face and they now also put on a birthday spread.

We had a very nice meal and enjoyed our evening. They show all the key football matches and we were told they hold special themed events such as Halloween. The staff were happy and pleased to serve us. We will visit again.

The pub is great, good beer, good atmosphere. The staff are lovely and make the pub the friendly place that it is

Good basic pub food, live football and a park outside so possible to have a drink and watch the kids play if you sit in the garden. Parking may get a bit tricky when Tesco reopen.

The pub is a nice pub but there tvs to watch football are old, not in HD and in stupid positions. I walked in here and literally walked out and went to the dove.

I visited with a friend who lives local and he took me to his local pub. This is a real gem. The lady behind the bar managed to get me to try violet gin! To go with my signature stack burger. When the food came out it put 5 guys to shame! The burger was loaded with cheese bacon onion rings and bbq sauce, and it was taller than my phone standing up! Don’t pay silly prices anywhere else! 2 of these burgers cost me £9.99. This pub I will definitely visit again

Always a good welcome and friendly staff. Nice food and we'll kept beer good family atmosphere and children catered for

My friend and I love the different gins we can try at the bar. We were served by Gemma who pours the best gins and always knows what goes well with the flavours, she asked us to write a review so here I am! We are regulars of the Kingfisher and have seen such an improvement with the new managers too, we love going there now

My local is finally getting looked after. Seen the new gaffer a few times. I told him about the glasses always being dirty. He has sorted it. Now always clean. Beer tastes much better and I've now even started eating here. Food is good honest grub and it looks great. The garden is looking better. He even had the young chef out gardening.

Came in with friends and the football was on. It was really busy so sat outside as not a big football fan. When I ordered I got served by the new landlord. He was serving everyone but never looked stressed and still had time to chat when taking my order. We had food here before so wasn't expecting much. 2 steams we had and they were the best meals we have had here in a long time. I had heard good things about the new owners and I have to agree. I told him this today and he asked me to put my review public so here you are. Will be coming again. Thanks Jon and all the best

Came to the kingfisher for meal with my mates had a Chicago sloppy burger. Was phenomenal really really good thank you kingfisher for another awesome meal really looking forward to bring my parents in a couple of weeks to show them how awesome the burgers are.

Me and my partner frequent here for lunch and drinks with and without the kids but after our recent service, we will never eat here ever again.

We live locally and occasionally we come to the pub to have lunch. My partner is a chef in a pub and I have been working in restaurants myself for ten years. I can confirm this is the worse experience ever. Lunch for Father’s Day, only one member of the staff serving the bar and the “restaurant”, bless her, and nothing of our choice was available on the menu, no steak, so no roasted dinner or mix grill or anything else with meat other than chicken, no ice cream and the food we finally got (1 hour 15 min waiting) was soggy and fried with old oil. At the end we asked for our daughter fruit pot... open the pot and first spoon out, the item was expired 2 months earlier, on the 20/04?? This really put us off and we do not recommend to come over for anything else than a pint.

It's a great family environment, we live near by and bring the kids in all the time. It's also a great place to visit for nightlife visits like on weekends due to the atmosphere and the music.

Good choice of beers and wines but food was disappointing in the sense that it was bland and overcooked. Fish was so overcooked it was too crunchy to eat as were chips. Burger was ok- cheap prices though so I guess you get what you pay for!

Excellent staff serving a good selection of food and drinks at a very competitive price in a very friendly family orientated pub.The pub is located next to a kids play area and park close enough for parents to keep an eye on them while having a drink.

Enjoyed lunch today with friends at this welcoming restaurant. Good food and very good service. We'll be back!

Great food, amazing service and the staff here are just so friendly, I'd recommend this pub to everyone

A well supported, current landlady Anna runs a popular local with good family food deals (Greene King) fayre. Frequent live music and events....look out for her May bank holiday 'Mega Fun Day' this year. I'll certainly be back for a pint and chat with the friendly regulars, one of which was the very first customer back in the early 80's when the pub first opened its doors!

I was with my friend, like always crew extremely nice, food so amazing (we botch order Big Daddy Burger) and to be fair ... I hate onion rings cos they sucks in all pubs/restaurants... Up here first time in my life I eat so good onion rings!!!

My first course was still frozen in the middle and the same with my second course. Coffee looked and tasted like dish water

We came here for a nice catch up with the family, and after an hours wait the children's food came, with the wrong food, which is a mistake easily made, however their was no apology for the mistake which I found really rude. The man who served the incorrect food tried to force us to eat the food instead of going and correcting it. Not only that, but 45 minutes later the adults food finally came, but only some of the customers food came. By the time the people who had received their food had eaten the two others who had not were starving and were wondering when their food would come. They went in to ask where it was, and were told it wasn't even being cooked. Those people were offered a refund but the staff were very rude and inconsiderate.

The third time I've had a meal at the kingfisher ordered a steak service was good the steak the same as before cooked perfect but the same has the last two times no mustard was told have none in stock and can't buy any from tesco witch is next door the same has the last twice wy do a steak on your menu

Mi marido y yo acabamos de comido en nuestro pub local, el Kingfisher. Pedimos un pollo al curry y New Yorker, después de un rato esperando para un miembro de personal vino a decirnos que se habían quedado sin guisantes! ! ! ! También he...

Mientras se aloja casi fui para un bocado rápido para comer. El servicio era bastante bueno y la comida estuvo bien. Los precios son muy razonables y un ambiente acogedor. Sin duda, volveremos como im debido a estar en la zona por un par de...

Este pub está en una zona de tiendas y a lo que se podría esperar de un suburbano local, pero quizás por encima de la media. Decoración limpia y agradable, con cómodos asientos. El personal era atento y el servicio estaba resbaladiza. El menú es...

Pub local bajo una nueva administración que están muy bien, como a la gestión anterior de renombre que sin duda no eran. Bebidas asequible y agradable personal. La comida es genérico-pub.

Avoid with family, not really a family pub . Too many chavs shouting and swearing can smell drugs being smoked as well outside.

What can I say? There are far much better places in Newport and Milton Keynes than the Kingfisher! Flat pints, cold reheated food that takes hours to appear on the table! Rude management and staff! Won't be going back.

Reservé una mesa en el Kingfisher, como me he mudado recientemente a la zona. Llevé a mi suegro por una comida, ya que era el Día del Padre con la familia y decidí sorprenderlo con un festín de carne enorme. Fue precioso, el bistec de cómo él quería, que era de tamaño, y él también dijo que estaba bien y juicey. Un montón de comida todo bien cocinado y aspecto apetitoso. Él quería postre que era un millonario diabólico, pero sus ojos eran más grandes que su vientre, pero que parecía bueno.

Had to wait for over one hour and thirty minutes for our food not advised of long wait when ordering and no apology given when enquired what was going on the manager became very rude and belligerent when we complained and asked for a refund. Refund only given when I approached staff and asked for Greene kings head office number.food was also of very poor quality ie burnt sausages and very oily burger.completely ruined father's day meal.would deeply advise potential customers to steer clear of this establishment,better food outlets near by in Milton Keynes ie kfc,macdonalds.better quality restaurants also nearby.

Visited the pub for a drink one sunny spring day. Garden was Full of people smoking heavily, talking in a really chav way and swearing.Took ages to get served. Drinks were reasonable price not too much but didn't like the atmosphere.
