hey i know not many peoplelook at this site but for those that do if you look at the greene king site it has a vacancy for a manager at the blackbirds. does that mean that the ill equipped woman who some may know as the land lady is going?. lets hope she takes most of her bar staff with her. maybe there is hope for this pub if shes gone maybe food will be better and it can be called a local again at that is needed after she is gone is to get rid of the suits in the early evning that think they own the pub and can be loud n abusive because they spend money. then we might get back a nice local pub that people enjoyed like many did around here some 10 years ago ut justa thought though THANK GOD SHE IS GOING she could not have made a pub worse

i quite agree with bedsred. since my last visit have tried again and it gets no better. spoke to few people in here and yes previous comment is correct, the land lady whos name is joe doesnt really give a damm about the pub and is only concerned with getting her salary and accomadation. i was told she couldnt care less about the customers who she thinks are all below her and just wants to make her money at this pub. it was of interest to note that these views were expressed to me and my friend by a member of bar staff on a weekday night so if they think this it says it all. perhaps thats why they cant pull a decent pint they are to busy moaning. god alone knows why greene king employ this land lady as she is ruining a pub that was in the past good. perhaps people should contact greene king and start a petition to get her out b4 the pub goes so far down hill it is past being rescued

have been in this pub a few times since moving to flitwick and have to say it is very hit and miss.sometimes empty and on other times jam packed. the only consistent thing is always 2 bar staff on. it is very poor at service when busy and not that much better when quiet as it seems staff prefer to be the other side of the door that is in the middle of the bar leading to i presume the kitchen. talking of the kitchen have eaten here a few times and not bad food for the price but you need to find out who is cooking before ordering.if it is the man then its ok but if it ia the women dont bother as far inferior to the mans cooking. overall worth a visit but not brilliant by any stretch

The Blackbirds, Flitwick
this pub has so much potential have to say had a very enjoyable evening in here the other weekend.maybe its the relief of knowing the landlady is going as there did seem to be a different atmosphere.hopefully a sign for the future.
as a note to realalerules 102 please dont try to be personal as it is the pub and its representatives we are commenting on not trying to insult individuals who post comments but for your information i have neither been thrown out of the pub nor am i am a competitor and i do have a life,and as for your comment about the number of posts i guess you must have been drinking your real ale as this post included makes my total 4 out of to date 25 posts hardly all but one .next time im in the pub with check the abv on some of those real ales perhaps you should stick the nice pint of flowers.
