Nestled in a little village in MK called Great Brickhill is this cute cosy pub that has some beautiful views from the garden area to enjoy! This place was a perfect way to spend our Sunday with some quite amazing roast dinners Below is what we had: Drinks: • Hot chocolates we cosied up with a hot chocolate that had some delicious homemade shortbread on the side which were very moreish! Food: • Slow braised pork belly roast • Slow roasted beef roast All I can say is WOW, both roasts were pretty damn amazing! The meats were succulent and not chewy at all. Served with root vegetables, roast potatoes steamed veg with red wine gravy to pour which was delicious homemade Yorkshire puddings, the...
Visited the Old Red Lion on a Saturday evening, as close to an AirB&B we stayed at. Great welcome from friendly staff, who were excellent. Down to one chef on our visit, so a small delay, but this was explained before we ordered, which is a welcome change to other places we've been to in the past who give you no info on any issues. Staff were efficient and seemed genuinely interested in us and how we were looked after. Food and drinks were excellent. We liked it so much, that when looking for somewhere for a Sunday lunch, we rebooted here and were lucky to get a cancellation! Food, drink and service were equally as good. Probably worth getting a reservation very busy (Understandable given ho...
Today, I had Sunday lunch at this restaurant (21/01/24). I was somewhat let down by the limited choice of starters (no prawn cocktail as indicated online). The main course was okay but nothing extraordinary, with the roast potatoes being very hard and tough to cut, and the Yorkshire pudding being different. The service was outstanding and the atmosphere was great, but overall it was a bit disappointing considering we were recommended to dine here by close friends. We left feeling like we had paid a high price for a meal that was, at best, average.
We want to support local pubs and went yesterday. We ordered our meals at around 7.15pm and they turned up at 8.45pm! Yes, it was a sunny evening and they were busy but the nice weather wasn't a suprise so it didn't take a genius to know you have to gear up accordingly. I felt sorry for the girls serving who were clearly overstretched and i gathered the kitchen closed early as they couldn't cope. 90 minutes for what turned out to be a very underwhelming plate of food. We had taken friends there and felt very embarrassed for having recommended it.

Authentic pub interior with a large garden looking out to a spectacular view. Some outside covered space in case it’s raining too. Service was polite and attentive. Good selection of drinks. Some zero beers. Food is varied and fairly priced. The burger was a proper decent burger. Very tasty. Soup of the day was also lovely. Only 10 minutes from the centre of Milton Keynes so worth a drive out if you are in the city. Parking is a bit tricky. Usually spaces on the road. Happily return and thoroughly recommend.
I recently visited a charming old pub in Great Brickhill. The service was attentive, the food was delicious, and they had a good selection of drinks. The only downside was that it was fairly quiet for a Thursday night, lacking some atmosphere. Nonetheless, I plan to return and maybe try their tapas night or pizza!
Four of us had an excellent lunch here in glorious sunshine. In a pretty village near Bletchley and Leighton Buzzard. Pub has a large terraced garden with a lovely view over the Ouzel valley. The food was very nice and good value. Puddings are very tempting and delicious. Service was friendly and efficient.
Fantastic pub, great food and service however, when I called and asked about the Vegan menu the staff said we have a lot to choose from. A little disappointed as most options said not available on Sunday and only one option was available suited for vegans. Great pub though.

The staff at this restaurant were very friendly and gave us a warm welcome. The Calamari starter was excellent and the mussels were the biggest and best I have ever had, the sauce was fantastic.
Great food, great view. Welcoming. Can’t rate higher. Please try!!!! Thanks for everything and the kids xx
