Harden's survey result
Summary
This “gem in the Bedfordshire countryside” – a whitewashed gastropub with sixteenth-century origins – is “an oasis of consistency in a sea of mediocrity” under “brilliant” owners Martin & Jayne Lee. “We’ve been going regularly for over 15 years and have yet to eat a meal that was below their high standards”. Top Tip – “always leave room for the soufflé”.
Summary
A “great place in the middle of nowhere”, Martin Lee’s “wonderful gastropub” – with rooms dating back to the Tudor era – serves “light and flavourful dishes” and service is “so accommodating” too.
Summary
A “wonderful gastropub in the depths of rural Bedfordshire”, dating back to Tudor times, and full of “beams and interesting nooks and crannies” – plus a “cosy bar for winter” and “gorgeous garden for summer”; the “short but interesting seasonal menu” results in “assured” cooking, with “some stand-out dishes”.

For 32 years we've been curating reviews of the UK's most notable restaurant. In a typical year, diners submit over 50,000 reviews to create the most authoritative restaurant guide in the UK. Each year, the guide is re-written from scratch based on this survey (although for the 2021 edition, reviews are little changed from 2020 as no survey could run for that year).
