Visited before Saints 1 - 0 win over MKD in the JPT. Black Sheep Bitter and Youngs Winter Warmer with Westons Traditional Cider also on handpump. Both beers in goood nick. Main bar has a pool table, dart board in smaller bar to the left. I heard some Genesis and Tull playing, not sure if it was radio, CD or jukebox. Looks like it's the best option for Franchise FC and probably a nice place to be when it's warm.

Two minutes walk from Fenny Stratford station and beside the canal. Reasonable kind of a pub, the Black Sheep was a decent pint and the girl behind the bar served people in order (despite the wishes of certain locals to get priority). It should be the kind of pub that would score highly but it just doesn't have an overall friendly feel to it and I doubt I will be making a return visit.

Much improved since my last visit ,there are now 4 handpumps with GK brewed Ruddles County a regular,a guest (Wadsworth Henry's IPA ) and a second guest at the weekend.The fourth handpump dispenses a traditional cider.Judging by the collection of pump clips,there has been some interesting ale on offer in here and my Henry's IPA was very well kept and quaffable.The main bar has Sky sports TV and a pool table , has been refurbished and is clean while to the side is a quieter area for drinking.Red Lion is popular with the local motor bike club , has a real community feel and a chatty barmaid.Best ale in Fenny by a considerable distance.

Visited this pub before the MK Dons v Leeds match. It is a reasonable place with a small room housing a dartboard and a larger room which includes a pool table. The pub is plain but does have its plus sides.
The landlord was friendly whilst the beer was good, with both Wadworth Henrys IPA and Davenports on hand pulled.
The best part however was its location, tucked down a small lane which leads to a busy lock on the Grand Union canal. The pub has a delightful setting and a small beer garden where you can enjoy your ale while watching the passing barges on the canal.
Definitely worth a visit if you are attending a game at MK Dons.

Still a great place for really well kept beers, with a landlord who knows what he is talking about when it comes to real ale. Last visit he had three ales on and the cider. Changes the beers so often, almost a complete change every visit. Interesting to try all these different beers, but when you find one you particularly like its rather disappointing that it probably wont be on next time!
