The best restaurants serving British food in Toddington Central Bedfordshire East of England

We threw my mums surprise 60th birthday party at the Oddfellows Arms. Jamie made it so easy and stress free to arrange and the bar staff were amazing the whole night. It’s such a great venue. Thanks Jamie and team!

Lovely food, very reasonable and plentiful portions. Great selection on menu. Highly recommend. Friendly staff. Have returned several times.

Amazing food. Starters were devine (bang bang chicken and baked camembert, yummy) For mains I had steak and it was THE BEST steak I've had!! Wonderful people. Warm and friendly environment. A new favourite, we will definitely be back ☺️

Terrible over cooked and over priced food. The only nice thing was the chips and kids pasta which although all gloopy where it had been over cooked and looked rotten the flavour was quite nice. The restaurant is dirty on floor tables cutlery and window ledges The service was awful. When we pointed out to the young girl all the inadequacies she went off somewhere and said the chef and manager had ‘noted’ our concerns but no apology

We are regular customers at the restaurant and big fans of their scones ......until recently. I'm not sure whether they have changed the recipe or whether the staff who usually cook these have changed but on the last few occasions the scones have been disappointing. Cheese scones no longer very cheesy (now appears to be a plain scone with a tiny sprinkling of cheese on the top), fruit scones much less fruit - cost saving? Who knows.......but please get back to the previous versions. Otherwise a great restaurant with very good coffee and a great selection of food and cakes - the staff are a particular high point, always very friendly, welcoming and efficient.

We visited on a Saturday evening with a reservation for six. Initially, we were seated in the bar area, which was quite noisy due to a live act — something we weren’t informed about beforehand. After about 45 minutes, we requested to be moved, as we had come primarily for dinner rather than a lively bar atmosphere. Fortunately, there was plenty of seating available in quieter sections, so it was unclear why we were placed in the bar area to begin with. Unfortunately, the food didn’t meet expectations. It took well over an hour to come out and all of our meats were ordered medium but arrived well done, with the chicken noticeably burnt. Interestingly, the only dishes we enjoyed were likely pre-prepared items like the pie and lasagne. Considering the prices, the overall value was disappointing. I can't knock the staff though they were polite and attentive. All in all, not the best experience and probably one to avoid if you’re after a relaxed dinner with quality food.

My auntie and I went here today for the first time,11/05/25. We had an excellent roast dinner,very good value and big portion, I couldn't finish it! Friendly service will definitely go back.
