The best restaurants in Harrold Bedford East of England

A huge thank you to Paris and Ben & team for our wonderful Christmas meal at the Royal Oak this evening. Superb food with a warm friendly atmosphere and lots of special xmas feeling. Highly recommended.

I went to the fox today for drinks as I’m now a wheelchair user I was worried about going to pubs but the landlady was very helpful and reassuring the disabled toilets r clean and wheelchair accessible would highly recommend for a place to go with friends or family 💯

Gorgeous chocolate Milk shake with hand made ice cream from nearby. Lovely Apple & Lemon Muffin too!

I recently visited the New Inn Pub and I must say, it was an extraordinary experience! The meal I had was the best I've enjoyed in months. The highlight of my visit was undoubtedly the Apple Plum Crumble Pie – it was, without a doubt, the best I've ever eaten in my life. The flavors were perfectly balanced, with the sweetness of the apples and plums melding harmoniously with the buttery, crumbly topping. Each bite was a delightful journey of taste and texture. The warm, welcoming atmosphere of the pub added to the overall enjoyment of my meal. It's not just a meal, it's a culinary adventure that I highly recommend to all food lovers. The New Inn Pub truly sets the bar high with its exceptional cuisine and charming ambiance.

Been before and was very good, unfortunately this time it was not the best. We ordered drinks and then told that the menu was changing next week so lots of the menu was unavailable. We found a table to accommodate us but it wasn't clean. We ordered our food at the bar, the food was OK. We ordered a pudding at the bar. All the food was OK. But I was surprised that I had to pay 10% service charge. Such a shame to have had a disappointing meal at such a lovely little pub!

Went with family. The food was okay, some stuff was nice other bits not so much. The tika wasn’t the best in my opinion, bright red style! The service from the owner was a little uptight, we tried to make some conversation to lighten the mood but he’s a serious chap and wasn’t interested in a chat. Regardless it was okay, a little on the expensive side. When I visit family in the area i think I would rather try my luck in olney if it’s curry night.

Went for my Birthday with my wife and family We all enjoyed our food and the service was really good The landlord is a really nice guy who works hard and I would recommend the New Inn

Very friendly staff, lovely food and freshly cooked

Both the food and service were excellent! We had the tasting menu of 7 courses all of which were delicious, beautifully presented and a good size. We were in a room on our own but not forgotten, and it was nice to see the chef bring out some of the courses. There have been a couple of previous visits when the service was slow, but not tonight; full marks. It’s so lovely to have a local couple making such a success of this restaurant - in this area of the UK it’s a rarity.

The muntjac is great for two reasons, the Pub and the restaurant. As soon as you enter your greeted with a friendly community in the pub, then in the next room to the side of it you get the restaurant, full of friendly staff and a interesting glass display of a fish tank in old well, the food is decent and the service is moderate, only issue is the toilet hygiene is very neglected, other then that totally go there!

Had fish and chips from here and it was delicious packed with flavour and fresh fish. Batter was great crispy but not too dry and the fish had flavour, chips were tasty and perfectly cooked. I was brought up eating fish and chips from a seaside town so no my food and I was a chef for over 35 years so well experienced in food. Great fish and chips and great value for money go check it out now …..thanks guys

It's too cold in the cafe, you get hot food delivered to your table, within 2/3mins it's gone cold. Everybody sits with their coats on !!!

I’ve been coming to Poddington Garden Centre for over 25 years and remember it fondly as a family-run business with knowledgable staff and a massive range of high quality plants. It’s a bit of a drive to get there for me, but it used to be worth it, as Poddington stood out then, as the premier local garden centre. Sadly it has declined massively no longer deserves that title. The range and quality of the plants and other gardening items have reduced significantly. The inside section seems to have mostly been switched to selling budget items and loads of groceries. It was like a mini B & M homestore. The indoor plants section is a shadow of its former self, in terms of range of plants and quality. I guess it’s handy for the locals and does sell a lot of stuff, but I won’t be coming again.

We stopped here for coffee and a bite as part of our bike ride. It took over an hour to have a coffee and bacon butty. Great location but the service is dreadfully slow.

AVOID!!!!!!! Never Delivered and Never updated me to say the order had been cancelled. I Pre ordered for a delivery at 20:45, the order was accepted, I got notification that the deliver was enroute at 20:40. At this point I understood my delivery would probably be 20 minutes late, I appreciate this being new years eve. By 21:30 my food hadn't arrived, by this time if it had I thought it would be cold so would. Try to call the restaurant who were avoiding all calls. Eventually get through at 21:49 asking for an update of order. To get 'all orders are cancelled and then they hung up. Not even an apology, I mean on new years eve where else do you get a new order for Indian food. Completely ruined my night!!!!! I would have re ordered from here again as the food is nice, if they would have just declined the order, or called my apologising earlier to say they can't keep to their commitment, that wouldn't have been a problem and I could have re ordered from elsewhere and for them not even to apologise. Please, if you want your food on time or even delivered dont order from here!!!!!!!!!!!
