Life on the river… send your worries down stream, watch every sunset, let the current give you strength, have lazy days, take walks and make many memories
Prioritising the right things in life…
Sunshine, nature, good food and even better company.
We can’t wait to welcome you for all of the above this year 😆
A perfect weekend 💌
A bit of winter sun and hearty food goes a long way around here

Here at The Kingfisher, we are so lucky to be situated in such a beautiful setting.
Come and visit us this year, you might just see some of our regulars! (🦢🦆🐦⬛)
Delicious dining, fast service and kind people. The things that make a pub great.
But what about a riverside pub?
A beautiful river, a cool boat for hire, and plenty of outdoor seating to enjoy the views 🚤
What better way to spend your free time than surrounded by nature and beautiful scenery?
And what could make that even better? A pub, ideally located in a picture-perfect spot on the River Great Ouse 🦦
As the year draws to a close, we’ve been taking a look back at the year we’ve, and what a success it’s been!
From Badger the Boat making his appearance, and spending hours in the sun on The Jetty, to winning ‘Bedford’s Business of The Year 2025’ and launching our brand new dining experience Après at The Jetty, this year has certainly been one to remember 🏆
From us to you, we want to wish you and the people you love a very Merry Christmas 🎄
We’d also like to take this opportunity to thank everyone who has visited us this year. Whether just for a tipple on the Jetty, a riverside stay or a whole meal, you have made this year absolutely unforgettable for us and our whole team.
Save yourself the faff of cooking, let us do the work for you. You stay, we’ll take care of the rest.
Spending Christmas at the pub is one of our highlights of the year 🎄
Christmas in the pub might just be the best way to unwind and spend time with the people that mean the most 😊

Our fondue pots will be retiring soon…
But don’t fear - we still have a few dates left! This weekend is our last full weekend of Après at The Jetty (Friday, Saturday and Sunday) and next Sunday (28th December) is our final day!
It’s definitely no too late to get those last minute bookings in - we’d love to see some more new and returning faces to enjoy all that our fondue dining experience has to offer 🥳
