Attractive, rather cosy village pub at the central road junction. It has a popular food trade, but the two real ales vary from week to week and may include beers from small breweries. The village is home to two famous airship sheds, one of which now houses the set for making Batman films. Freshly cooked food is available daily.

Information for this venue is provided by the North Bedfordshire Branch of CAMRA
