About This Pub
You know, when I think about The Castle, it just sounds like one of those pubs that hits the mark for a proper good time. From what folks are saying, it's got this warm, welcoming feel where you can pop in, grab a drink, and chat away with the friendly crowd – especially if you're into rock and metal, as they've got live music that really brings the place to life. The staff are dead helpful and the prices won't break the bank, plus it's open late, which is brilliant for those nights that don't want to end early. On the flip side, it doesn't seem like food's a strong point; a few mentions that it's not clear what's on offer, so you might want to grab a bite elsewhere first. And honestly, their website was a bit of a faff when I tried it, which could make planning a visit a tad frustrating. All in all, it's a solid choice if you're after a genuine, down-to-earth pub experience in Luton, but keep those little niggles in mind for a smoother trip.

great pub good atmosphere and friendly staff
Great pub. If you like your rock and metal then this is the place. Locals are very friendly. I'm working down here and got chatting to people. Can't think of a better rock bar in Luton. Don't know if they do food so didn't give a rating
Love this place. Been going for years. Mixed crowds of people, always friendly. Decent for live music. Bar staff are sound. Prices are cheap. Always open later. Long live the castle !
The Castle is one of a few great places left in Luton to have a drink and meet friends, this is our go to place when we meet up, great service, excellent atmosphere
Really great pub with friendly people and lovely staff! I was in Luton alone waiting for flight next day so came here after reading the reviews and felt very welcomed and comfortable, with a very eclectic range of music 😂 great fun 🤩
