Best pub in all of Ampthill! This is where all the locals go for a pint after work or for a long…read moreafternoon on the weekend. Perhaps I am biased as my best friend owns it but, their is no other place quite like it and it is where I feel most at home. They have a vast selection of lovely beers, spirits and now, even a lovely gluten free beer! Although, that may have been purchased especially for me. If you ever have a chance to come to this beautiful market town of Ampthill, be sure to stop in. You will meet the loveliest and most welcoming bunch of people!

We drove awhile out of the way to come here, as our friends had been raving about the food. The pub…read morewas beautiful and classy, and we got an awesome, huge table in the corner for our group of eight. There was a cozy fireplace and dim lighting to set the mood. Everyone at the table ordered a starter for themselves, which I'm not used to coming from the USA. I always forget that their portions are smaller. If everyone at the table each ordered both a starter and a main at home, it would be an insane amount of food (LOL). I tried the hummus and pita, as well as the baby chorizo with the creamy dipping sauce which were both pretty good. My main was the best part of the night. I got the chilli, which had beans, quinoa, avocado, and other healthy ingredients. It was much appreciated, as it can be hard to find food that's not heavy in English pubs (a girl can only eat so many pies and fish & chips). It filled me up and I loved every bite, as well as the fact that it came with pita. I tried my husband's margarita pizza and the crust was good too. Cheers to a fun spot with good food! PS: They also had non-alcoholic beer which was nice!

Great old English pub feel with plenty of amazing beers on draft…read more I also loved the food menu, we got the baby chorizo to start which was absolutely delicious, it comes in this sauce that I would have on everything I ever eat moving forward ;). I then got a pizza for my main, and it was incredible. HIGHLY RECOMMEND.

Had some excellent cask ales here. It's a nice little pub in the middle of tiny Ampthill and had a…read morecozy little feel. The ales again were good, and the food was pretty good as well. I had a lamb curry over rice and my dad had the chili rice. Both were very good; I've found British lamb to be slightly less gamey than, say, France, so the curry gave it a nice little kick that I very much enjoyed (slightly spicy too). The bartender was very friendly, and helped us to choose the right ale and even gave us a taste of each one before were decided what we wanted to drink. They had a deflated bouncy castle in the back as well as a little wooden structure with "FERRET RACES" written on it, so not quite sure what else they do here, but I wish I could find out!

If I could give zero rating I would. What awful and rude service. Very unwelcoming place . Food…read morewas nothing special and server was eating and rude while at our table. Place was almost empty when we arrived yet they still gave us a hard time about seating us. A shockingly bad place I honestly can't understand any of the good reviews. Maybe they just don't like anyone out of town.
