Now 'Longs' as opposed to Magpies. Beers on tap were Speckled Hen and Adnams (tried latter and was perfect). Voting taking place on next guest between Deuchars, Timothy Taylor Golden Best and Youngs Bitter. Friendly service - trying to make a good go of it. Would return as one of the few GK free options in the village.

Very pleasant family owned pub/hotel in Woburn high street. Through the main entrance the bar is to the left. Small with traditional low beams. Bishop's Finger & Black Sheep on draught which was a relief from the other pubs which are all Greene King in Woburn. Restaurant is through the main entrance to the right & is slightly more contemporary & very tasteful. Beer garden is through the courtyard to the left & is long & narrow with ivy covered trellises - Great on a warm day. Best pub in Woburn as far as I'm concerned.

Excellent beer and sausage festival a couple of months back and good beers served on tap.

Much more like a traditional village pub than the other hotel bars in Woburn High Street.

Seems a nice enough pub, although the large barman underfilled my pint of Guinness twice - he really should learn how to pour a pint properly.
Did feel a bit like a hotel bar though.

Hotel with pub downstairs that feels like a pub, not an hotel-bar. Once spotted BBC weatherman Rob McElwee checking in and hiring a car (though not a convertible). Gorgeous gastro food in a dining-room that's sometimes sparsely populated. Abbot on draft and, of course, a glass of dry white wine for the ladies.
