You would be wrong. Within the boundaries of the village's limits lies a diamond in the rough. The local bar aspect mixed with the random, in my case I was a foreigner, was the perfect combination of curiosity and laughter! Can't wait to go back!

Staff are very friendly and even worth tipping! However I do recommend avoiding it during busy hours, as there can be a few kids running round yelling, but that's not something that can be helped. They've got a new play area for them anyway. Definitely worth a visit if your hungry or fancy a pint.

This pub will get good reviews on here, but it's distinctly formulaic (like EVERY Hungry Horse in…read morethe UK) and so distinctly average. Nothing wrong with that, and the staff do make an impact on the atmosphere, but last time I was in there, the kids were running riot and there was not much peace in the back section. Maybe it's changed very recently, but I'd rather have some peace with my Sunday Lunch, as well as the peas! It's easy to find, being right off of the Houghton Regis roundabout - enough car parking space and always people both in the sports bar and the family bar. A good night out is guaranteed if you go with the right attitude and a smile!

Beer well looked after, food well presented and tasty, and excellent friendly service. Only minor quibble would be the menu is not very inventive - but then it does not claim gastro-pub status. And if you have small people to entertain, there's (a) a children's play area in the rear of the beer garden and (b) the Fancott Miniature Railway, described as the "last pub railway in Britain".

Be prepared to duck when going from room to room -- the ceilings are quite low! The service is awesome and the food is delicious. I've gotten the steak and ale pie with chips, the mezze plate, and fish & chips. The food all tastes very high quality and almost anything you could order will be delicious. They have a big event tent in the back that they use for either extra restaurant seating or to rent out. Our family hosted a wedding celebration for us back there and they let us bring our own food, cake, and decorations, but had a bar window open so everyone could still order drinks from them. It was the perfect space and we enjoyed every second. The owners rock!

This is a traditional local pub, threatened with becoming yet another block of flats, but reopened…read moreas an independent free house in 2014 by regulars who couldn't see it resigned to this fate. It is welcoming, well run and clean. A wide selection of beers, spirits and real ales (with many guest ales) are kept in stock. There is a popular pool table. Live music is a regular feature as is televised sport and on cold days there is a blazing log fire. The regular crowd are a very mixed, down to earth and friendly bunch too. If you've never set foot in the place before and are looking for a proper, old-fashioned, back street pub, this is for you and you'll be back!

First things first. This is a Wetherspoon so expect a uniform menu and price range to any other…read moreWetherspoon-owned pub. The atmosphere is hip and fun, though definitely not very cozy which is why it loses a star there. Also because the wi-fi was extremely dodgy so I gave up on it. Those complaints aside, the food was cheap and good (curry and a beer for less than 5 pounds)! Great selection of drinks too. There's a statue of Gary Cooper atop a horse near the stairs. I found it pretty amusing that apparently the Hollywood star went to grammar school right there in Dunstable. Overall, affordable and pleasant stop if you're in Dunstable and want some tasty food and refreshing drink without breaking the bank.

We were told the pub is 500 years old, which is kind of amazing. We only had a limited selection of entrees since we were on a tight schedule. The fish & chips and the burger were the popular choices. I ended up ordering the burger, which was really good, but I must say the fish really looked yummy too. The burger was perfectly cooked, with cheese and bacon with fries on the side. Of course we also had to have a nice cold beer with our food, so we got a big one :-) This is definitely a place I would like to come back to and try something else from their menu, and I'm guessing it's a really nice place in the summer as well, as they have a lot of outdoor seating as well.
