House Of Chicken

Verified
4.8(693 reviews)
96/100
House Of Chicken in Milton Keynes is a hidden gem for authentic Portuguese fare, with top-notch food and a welcoming feel that keeps people coming back for more.
Pros and Cons
What's Great
  • The food is absolutely spot-on – think delicious, authentic Portuguese dishes with standout chicken that's crispy outside and juicy inside, plus amazing rice that folks rave about.
  • The owners are a delight; they're passionate about what they do and make everyone feel right at home, which really adds to the warm, family-like vibe.
Areas for Improvement
  • It seems like the place might be closed at the moment, which is a real pity given all the positive buzz – do check before you head over.
  • There's no website listed, so it's a bit tricky to look up the menu or get more details online, which could put a dampener on planning a visit.

The Chequers

Verified
4.7(235 reviews)
93/100
The Chequers is a gem of a pub in Milton Keynes, offering a brilliant vibe and affordable drinks, though it's more focused on pints and snacks than a full dining experience.
Pros and Cons
What's Great
  • The atmosphere is absolutely spot on – it's warm, welcoming, and feels like a proper local hangout where you can relax and unwind.
  • They've got a cracking selection of beers, including local ales, craft options, and even some fantastic Milton Keynes-sourced rums like that pineapple one, all at really reasonable prices with pints under £4.
Areas for Improvement
  • It's a bit limited on the food front, with no proper meals on offer – just those pork pies and snacks, so if you're after a hearty dinner, you might need to look elsewhere.
  • The cask ale selection can be on the slim side at times, like only having a couple on tap, which might disappoint if you're a real ale enthusiast seeking more variety.

The Dolphin Pub in Milton Keynes is a cracking little spot with top-notch food and a cosy vibe, though it can get a tad crowded at peak times.
Pros and Cons

  • The atmosphere is warm and welcoming, with a light, airy feel inside and plenty of space that makes you want to linger over a drink.
Areas for Improvement
  • The bar seating operates on a first-come, first-served basis, so you might end up waiting if it's a busy evening.
  • Food service wraps up relatively early on weekdays, like 9pm, which could be a bit of a downer if you're out late.

The Old Swan's a friendly local pub in Milton Keynes with solid grub and great service most of the time, but it's not without its off days when food falls short.
Pros and Cons

  • The staff are brilliant, always friendly and on point with service, making you feel welcome from the get-go.
Areas for Improvement
  • Food quality can be hit or miss – some dishes turn up lukewarm or with processed ingredients that don't quite hit the mark.
  • Portions might feel a bit stingy, like being told exactly how many roast potatoes you're getting, which can leave you wanting more.

The Dolphin's a cracking little pub in Milton Keynes, with a friendly atmosphere, top-notch carvery, and plenty of options for events – it's got that cosy, welcoming charm that'll make you want to return.
Pros and Cons
What's Great
  • The Dolphin has a really warm, family-run vibe that's perfect for a relaxed get-together with mates or the whole family, and they're even dog-friendly which is brilliant for us pet owners.
  • Their traditional English food is spot on, especially that Sunday carvery – reviewers rave about it being the best in Milton Keynes, with delicious, hot meals and plenty of choices.
Areas for Improvement
  • There aren't any specific operating hours listed, which could make it a bit of a faff to plan a visit and might mean missing out if it's unexpectedly closed.
  • It's tucked away in Bletchley, so if you're not local to Milton Keynes, it might not be the easiest place to pop into for a quick one.

Areas for Improvement
  • There have been a few slip-ups with service, like getting a drink in a dirty glass or a flat lager, which can really put a dampener on things.
  • The garden area's been described as a bit of a mess in some visits, so it's not ideal if you're hoping for a tidy outdoor spot to relax.

Not far way from the Milton Keynes centre you can find this classic pub. It's everything you can expect from a independent and traditional British pub. A bar with the draft beers and fridges with wine...

I visited this pub whilst enjoying a canal boating holiday. The staff were pleasant, the food was great, very accommodating the only blemish was the lack of a disabled-accessible toilet.

  • The atmosphere is spot on for a sports bar, with a lively vibe, dart boards, and a pool table, perfect for a fun night out with mates.

The Swan Hotel is a welcoming spot in Milton Keynes for a casual drink, sports action, or a comfy budget stay – it's reliable and friendly without the frills.
Pros and Cons
What's Great
  • The atmosphere is spot on for a relaxed pint and catching the footy on one of their eight large screens – it's a proper sports bar vibe.
  • Rooms are clean, comfortable, and offer great value, especially if you're after a simple overnight stay near Bletchley Park or other local spots.
Areas for Improvement
  • It's a bit no-frills, so if you're hoping for something more upscale, it might feel a tad basic and underwhelming.
  • No clear operating hours listed, which could leave you scratching your head if you're planning a visit and it turns out to be shut.

Clocktower is a welcoming pub in Milton Keynes offering solid, affordable grub and a friendly vibe, great for live sports and casual meet-ups, though it has a few quirks like early food service.
Pros and Cons
What's Great
  • The food is consistently tasty and hits the spot, with standouts like the chicken katsu, wings, and build-your-own burgers that keep you coming back for more.
  • It's brilliant value for money – affordable prices mean you get a proper meal without breaking the bank, making it ideal for a casual night out.
Areas for Improvement
  • They finish serving food quite early, which can put a dampener on things if you're planning a late evening meal.
  • While the food's good, it might not be the most memorable or top-tier experience you've ever had, more reliable than extraordinary.

  • The quality can feel inconsistent, as it's not always hitting the high notes like it used to based on what I've heard.

Pros and Cons
What's Great

  • It's a great spot for small gatherings, like up to 40 mates, especially with that BBQ option on sunny days.
Areas for Improvement
