Why Visit
The Kingfisher is a popular riverside pub and restaurant on Cardington Road, set directly beside the River Great Ouse. Its waterside setting makes it a lovely place to enjoy breakfast, lunch, dinner or drinks, with outdoor seating on The Jetty overlooking the river.
Food focuses on fresh, seasonal ingredients and modern British pub favourites, with a children’s menu, Sunday roasts, afternoon tea and plenty of options for a relaxed meal. The riverside terrace is particularly appealing in warmer weather, with live music and other events taking place on The Jetty throughout the year.
One of the biggest attractions is Badger, The Kingfisher’s fully electric open-top boat. Visitors can hire the boat and head out onto the River Great Ouse, making it possible to combine a meal or drink with a proper boating experience. Boat trips are available seasonally and make The Kingfisher particularly appealing for families and anyone wanting to experience Bedford from the water.
With its combination of riverside dining, outdoor space, live entertainment and boat trips, The Kingfisher feels more like a day-out destination than simply a pub. It is a great place to slow down, enjoy the river and make the most of Bedford’s waterside setting.
