Great food and service at very affordable prices. The venue is lovingly restored and maintained, and is a joy to visit with a warm and friendly atmosphere and staff.
Excellent food and friendly efficient staff. Hope to return next visit to London.
Very attentive staff. Two lovely main courses. Meal only let down by not using correct Guinness glasses(yes it effects the taste)
Lovely Christmas lunch, our booked table was in the main bar area we thought we would of been in the restaurant area but luckily it was positioned in front of the fire so it felt quite cosy.
Lots of new staff who were not trained in making cocktails or general hospitality etiquette... bit of a shame as the three cheers pub have such a good reputation.
Found our stay a little disappointing as unlike a previous reviewer, you definitely could hear the music in the room coming from downstairs. Also the train station across the road provided a fair amount noise throughout the whole night. I guess the giveaway was the set of earplugs left on each pillow when we arrived! Unfortunately the corridor and our room smelled of what I could only describe as a sort of stale cabbage and the toilet handle was faulty and stayed on permanent flush unless fiddled with. The staff were friendly though and the check-in process quick and easy. Location was excellent. Would we stay there again... probably not!
Great refurb, really impressed by the restaurant decor and the food!
Didn't even eat here the service was so poor from the beginning
I booked a table 2 days ahead as I was taking my staff out for dinner. It was a busy Friday night and I was disappointed to find we had a table in the busy bar area. I didn’t want to eat dinner with people standing around the table talking over us and after some discussion and waiting we were given an excellent table in the restaurant. The food, beer, service and atmosphere were fantastic. Amazing since they were so busy. Definitely coming back.
Early dinner before the comedy which was excellent quality and reasonable value for money. Shame we were charged for 4 bottles of wine rather than 4 glasses but going to assume it was an honest mistake and it was quickly rectified. The pub was buzzing, great atmosphere and beautiful decor. Great venue. Would definitely go back.
Lovely food and service, waitress was helpful and great place to stay.
This was our first visit to The Bedford. We were struck by the warm welcome we got from all the staff. They were very polite and professional and made our night extra special. The decor and ambience had a classy young vibrant style. Loved it. The god was faultless, tasty and well presented and hot. Loved it
Delicious Sunday roast, good service and not noisy - a great lunch.
Lovely food good value suitable portions nice decor friendly staff
Food was great, very pleased with my roast dinner. Will be going again soon.
Poor service, late dealing with us, inexperienced and loud music from adjacent bar was really annoying. Food was good, Cocktails terrible
We all had a great time enjoying the food and atmosphere.
Great food and great service. Will definitely return soon :)
Food was ok but service was terrible. All orders were a mess, we ate food we didn’t order, all of us at different times. The tables around us experienced exactly the same. There seemed to be a lot of new staff, who couldn’t cope with the weekend’s crowds. Very disappointing...
comfortable, pleasant place to be, good food and prompt service
Lovely welcoming bar staff and waitress. Food delish and good value. Great decor, fab vibe.
Always a great night to be had at the bedford music nights!
great food as always great service as always just great
Great Sunday lunch . Perfectly cooked veg . Fab pork and crackling . Huge portion . Friendly efficient service.
Friendly service and good food. Bar very busy so quite tricky to get through
Good service. Had a burger and fish and chips. Large portions but could have had more salad in burger and peas with fish and chips.
Outstanding service, nothing was too much trouble - loved the Sea Bass xx
Tasty food and good atmosphere! We had burgers, and a few small plates which were all good.
A great meal in a great pub, the traditional fish and chips were super delicious and will be back for a pizza...they loop EPIC! Thank you!
Great food, very attentive and friendly service, couldn’t have felt more welcome. Well done!
Lovely food and atmosphere, very impressed that the kids meals came out first
Great food and good customer service which catered for our dog!
2 really great staff made our night! Very patient and friendly- good food advice and the sharing food was delicious - the wine was very good too! A quiet oasis to the side of the busy pub.
A buzzy relaxed meal, good food, friendly service ... recommend
Loved our visit here! We honestly visited because The Bedford was a place that Ed Sheeran performed at and we wanted to see where he started. The place is very nicely decorated and the food was excellent. Staff was nice as well. Try the baked Camembert, you won’t regret it!
We had the Sunday roast beef. Very tasty but a bit tough. Could do without the music in the dining room, too.
Friendly staff. Good quality food and catered well to children.
Food was awful, service was awful. Worst restaurant experience to date
Delicious food and lovely friendly staff. This pub has a trendy interior and good atmosphere. The small plates were particularly good. Helped we had 50% off in August deal :)
We went to the Bedford as we had the 50% summer voucher. The steaks and squid were both good, but not great. We were sat in the bar rather than the restaurant so the atmosphere wasn’t great and the table service was slow. They need to update the menu and add bernaise sauce as an option for steaks. I’m glad I didn’t pay full price
