Swan, Flitwick

Food average, entertainment dead, staff take a while to notice you have been standing at the bar for 10 mins and as stated 7th june floor sticky.

Really needs to clean up it's act.

NOT worth the visit.

The Bumble Bee, Flitwick

A lively pub and very freindly, I have been drinking in the Bee for some time now and always find the service good and the pub clean.

Re-post dated 31 May 2006: Check your facts before posting, the landlady you were refering to regarding the assult charges left ages ago, the current land lady was not involved. As for your comment about go to the Swan, Yep well I tried that, my god what a boring place, the most life in that pub was coming out the fruit machine, Ive attended better funerals.
The Landlord was a grumpy old sod and the landlady wasn't any better, the staff were more intrested in chatting to each other behind the bar than serving drinks and the customers were all dead in the seats and looked like they were waiting for the dribble bus. Sorry mate but if your one of them, no wonder you didn't like the Bumble Bee.

Give me a pub with people who want to enjoy a good night anyday.

Mr makinpost - you mention the pub attract Chavs and trouble makers perhaps due to the flag for the world cup. At least this pub went out of it's way to do something for the world cup. As for the the last 2 times you visited you say there were fights, you obviusly don't go very often as I drink in there on a regular basis, including every Friday and Saturday and I can't remember the last time there was a fight, I agree, one time there was fighting in the pub on a regular basis but that was along time ago and under a different Landlady, the new Landlady has put in alot of hard work and effort to change the pub and make it in to a freindly enjoyable place, most of the people who caused fight were kicked out and now go to the Swan and dribble in their pints.

Seeing as you 2 clearly haven't been for a long time why not go back and see how much the pub has changed.
If you still don't like it, go back to the Swan with the dribblers or try the Wheatsheaf you can join the knitting classes down there.
