The best restaurants in Kempston Rural Bedford East of England

What a lovely place. Held a Golden Wedding Party here. Staff couldn’t have been any more helpful. Nothing was too much trouble. We will definitely be back for the next party.

Xmas lunch with our walking group - food was excellent, particularly as the restaurant was very busy. Great venue and as always, very friendly and helpful employees. Well done.

Small room with mm any people, difficult to hear your friends talking. Parking is very limited

A lovely old-fashioned pub but well up to speed with coeliac needs. The Sunday lunch was delicious and I enjoyed gluten free Yorkshire Puds! What a treat! They even did separate gluten free gravy. Generous portions and good service. This was our second visit and we will definitely be back.

Lovely cafe in this nice neighborhood. Very friendly staff and nice vibe. Latte a bit too hot by my standard.

I ate lunch here with a dozen people in a walking group. We pre-ordered and service was excellent. Food was tasty and priced reasonably.

Convenient for park runs on a Saturday. However was miffed when charged an extortionate amount for my grandson's lollypop. Bit of a rip off!

A group of friends met up at the Three Cranes for lunch - on my recommendation as I have eaten here before on a number of occasions. Three in the party had fish and chips underwhelming. I had the corn fed chicken. This is quite the worst meal I have had in a long time. The chicken was tough and tasteless and it was swimming in watery butter. There were vegetables on top including some sort of mushroom which, frankly, was tough and inedible. Mixed in with the buttery liquid were some leeks which just didn’t complement the meal at all. The waitress then brought more vegetables in a separate dish but far, far too many for one person. She didn’t come to check how the meal was so I ploughed on. I must have left half the food and, eventually, I expressed my disappointment to the waitress who informed me that she would tell the chef. I am wondering if there has been a change in the chef in recent months? We shall not be returning to the Three Cranes any time soon.

Came down this evening with my partner just for drink, the drink quality is amazing I can’t remember the last time I had pint taste so delicious, I had the birra moretti and my partner had the inch’s, the bar service was incredible by the gentleman who I didn’t catch his name. Local village pub great atmosphere will definitely be returning soon, thank you

Bland food. Chicken was so dry it was inedible. We will not be returning. The menu is too large for the chefs to make everything fresh. Obvious when the food comes too fast and is poorly executed.
