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

The staff are so friendly and the Guinness is sweet

This is a real hidden gem and well worth the trip! We have dined at this pub a few times now and you really can’t beat it! The food is absolutely excellent - both in terms of quality and presentation. The atmosphere is lovely and the staff very friendly. We will definitely be returning in the very near future. Highly recommended!

Efficient and friendly service. Tasty and clean tasting food. Reasonably priced. Great vegetarian. options! Fabulous quintessentially English tea room. Very good job for table of 8. Would definitely go again.

We had our Wedding at Priory House September 2023. It was an amazing day. We had started the planning with the wedding coordinator back in June 2023. Jackie and her team were amazing. Our ceremony took place in the Jacobean room which was perfectly decorated to match our colour theme. While we enjoyed taking photos out in the Priory gardens they turned this lovely little room into a flawless cosy setting to have our afternoon tea. The food was delicious, prepared and served with the utmost care, catering for the dietary needs of some of ours guests. We've given them Five stars, but they deserve a million.

Sadly shut forever unless someone comes up with extortionate price Fullers want. Could be such a great destination pub with right chef

This is a beautiful vintage tea shop. Food is lovely and tasty as for their home made cakes WOW. You definitely need to visit its set in a pretty small village with lots of independent shops.

It started well with a good selection on the menu. When we came to order our breakfast sandwiches my friend asked how much it would be to add an egg to her bacon sandwich, at which point the waitress advised that the prices on the menu had increased so weren't correct & could only say they had gone up by about 50p. On asking for a sparkling water she advised that had also gone up by 20p maybe 30p, these increases were due to the cost of living increase. When we questioned why the menus hadn't been updated she advised there were new owners & it hadn't been done yet but that there was a sign on the wall inside the shop advising of the price increase, we were sat outside but to be honest anyone entering the shop wouldn't have seen it as it would have been behind them. She then brought out the A4 sign. She also tried to find an updated menu which she couldn't find. Firstly I am sure this must be illegal to advertise one price & charge another & secondly a hand written note could have been added to the menu or a copy of the price increase attached to the menu which everyone would have seen. Maybe the new owners should hold fire on the price increase until new menus are available as it may save their reputation. The breakfast sandwiches were very tasty, however the 'glass' that accompanied the sparkling water was in fact a jar with a thread for a screw top. Some might call it funky but not to everyone's taste. Needless to say it wasn't used. There are standards which have to be met & the clear advertising of correct pricing is one of them. We are all effected by the cost of living crisis & on occasions when we do our bit to support local businesses we might be watching the pennies too.

Had the loveliest roast dinner with the family this afternoon- was delicious 😊 and highly recommend the sticky toffee pudding for dessert too!

Always a pleasure when my wife and l visit Room no9. Firstly the staff are always pleasant and engaging. Secondly the food is always hot and fresh. A credit to Leighton Buzzard. Tip: Advise booking as it can get very busy. My wife and i went on the off chance and were unable to get in. We went to another nearby eatablishment and met completely the opposite to service and food delivered at Room no 9.

Would highly recommend The Crown. 6 of us had a meal and was very pleased great portions and delicious. Friendly staff. Great family friendly pub with a nice big garden. Thanks the Crown

Expensive and poor quality of the food. Cold food and unfriendly boss. Not recommended Don't waste your time and your money Go away

I went to the duchess tea rooms with my sister, niece and my daughter. Right from the helpful lady on the gate we were greeted by smiling helpful staff. The manager of the shop directed us to the tearooms. Our waitress Megan was helpful and...

Definitely worth a visit nice warm and cosy fire to add to the atmosphere a hidden gem

We had a great experience on Sunday. Having booked a table it was seamlessly moved outside due to the fabulous weather. From the start, the staff were great. While the restaurant manager was seeing to the arrivals before us we had two separate members of staff saying we wouldn't be kept long; this is often overlooked at places, and it was noted that this is clearly something people are trained on and also that they know the manager is present enough that they can make this promise with confidence. The food was fabulous - even the roast passed my husband's high standards! Portions were either very decent, or huge so there is no scrimping here! And, thank you for the personal touch of a card for our anniversary - it was incredibly thoughtful!

I went for a wake and could not have been more impressed with the care and attention shown, food was delicious, hot and freshly made, dining area was clean and tidy, I will be returning with friends
