Here’s hoping for sunshine-filled weeks this August so we can savour the last of summer on the riverside 🌤️
Here’s our perfect way to spend a sunny day in Bedford:
🌿 Head to Priory Park and take a stroll along the River Great Ouse
🍻Thirsty work calls for a pit-stop pint or two here at @thekingfisherbedford (soaking up those riverside views)
⚓️ Grab your friends, hop on our electric boat and cruise down the river - don’t forget to take a few drinks aboard!
🍴Spend the evening tucking into our seasonal menu as the sun sets on the river and finish off with your favourite tipple
See you soon…

Dreaming of sunny lunches on the riverside terrace 💭
Even when the sun doesn’t come out to play, the good news is that you can still feast on your favourites inside the pub!
