The Blacksmiths Arms — Restaurant in Milton Keynes

A fantastic place which I always knew from when I was growing up, went in as an adult a few years back and always my favourite pub to go to despite not being able to go often.

The staff are always happy and are very good socially, helping me to come out of my shell on a number of occasions. Even as much as recognising me months later with no meeting. It's clear they care for their patrons.

The drinks selection is vary varied and should cater to most, if not all, types of people. From Beer to gin to whiskey to rum etc etc. Don't be afraid to ask, very accommodating.

There's darts, pool tables and a jukebox for those who enjoy them as well as quieter seating areas for those who prefer to be more secluded. They have multiple T.V screens across the pub allowing for easy viewing no matter where seated.

It's a fantastic place to be that also doesn't rip you off for your custom. Highly highly recommended as they're non judgmental down-to-earth and a very respectful...

This was our second visit to this pub. The first time we were happy, but not this time. We came shortly before the last call and ordered a few drinks. A woman, possibly the owner’s daughter, suddenly poured our drinks into plastic cups for no reason and even took a beer straight from my partner’s mouth, saying she wanted the glass back.

We weren’t drunk or causing any trouble — just enjoying a friendly game of pool. Other customers still had glass pints, so it felt unfair and like we were being singled out.

Very disappointing experience. Definitely not...

This is a lively community pub just over the bridge from the main shopping centre. Has two pool tables in good condition and tv's for the sport. The service was friendly and they even sold warm pies from a hot counter. Worth a visit on a hot day if you're in nearby...
