Nice old time pub ambience, service quick and polite. Menu gave enough options and they can deal with food allergies. Not rushed either to clear the tables. Well done. View all feedback.
What User dislikes about The Travellers Rest Dunstable:
we were advised when we arrived that they had delivery problems and therefore had only one frying available, or steak or chicken cake. we decided to stay, the starter was not bad, my slowly cooked pork was the worst fried I had. it was served with a whole carrot cut length! the black bauch was made with a fat layer that was not even made, the meat and fat measured about 4 in’s by 3 ins and was about 3/4 inches thick....

We were advised when we arrived that they had delivery problems and therefore had only one frying available, or steak or chicken cake. we decided to stay, the starter was not bad, my slowly cooked pork was the worst fried I had. it was served with a whole carrot cut length! the black bauch was made with a fat layer that was not even made, the meat and fat measured about 4 in’s by 3 ins and was about 3/4 inches thick. I couldn't eat it! like a cook that allowed to leave the kitchen, I can only say he or she should change her job. the waitress was apologetic and actually pulled her off the bill, bless her.
Large menu, wonderful staff, good eating, huge portions. we were a table of 7 with very different taste, but we found all the meal choices to enjoy.
We turned up at the pub for our meal which we were really looking forward to it : As we parked up all the lights went out and there was total darkness. I rang the pub several times from the car park and got no answer. I really couldn't work out what was going off. I ended up booking another table somewhere else so my husband and I could eat. I left a message at The Travellers Rest to say if they were having problems I thought it a bit rude that they hadn't taken the time to call their customers that had booked a table to let them know what was happening. We arrived at the next place where we managed to get a table, whilst we were waiting I got a phone call from The Travellers Rest to let me know that the reason the pub was in darkness was that they'd had a power cut and the only reason I got a phone call to let me know was because I had left the voicemail asking what was going on. Unfortunately it also meant that the voucher I had for that night expired before I can get over that way again.
The Travellers Rest has undergone a stylish renovation, transforming it into an inviting venue for diners. While many patrons enjoyed their meals, experiences varied significantly. Some highlighted service excellence and delightful desserts, while others faced challenges, including menu limitations and disappointing dishes, such as poorly cooked pork belly and gristly roast beef. Additionally, a power outage led to communication issues, prompting concerns about customer service. However, the friendly staff made efforts to rectify mistakes. Overall, the restaurant combines charm and potential but requires consistency in food quality to ensure a satisfying dining experience for all customers.

The food was good, but we had a long wait for it to appear. The restaurant was very busy so advise going early or later than 1.00pm for lunch. The refurbishment is attractive and welcoming and the staff were very cheerful and helpfu;i.
Fantastic food and great service. Highly recommend a visit. Can't believe how good it was. Can't fault them at all. Top marks all around.
We went out for a birthday dinner with family and friends and had a great time. The seating area was lovely and the staff provided excellent service. The food selection was fantastic and the desserts were amazing.
Lovely atmosphere attentive staff good food to celebrate my mums birthday .
The first time I’ve been since the refurbishment, it’s really lovely and the food was delicious, I’d definitely recommend
