The Hunt Hotel, Linslade

As someone who used to work at this establishment, I can vouch for all the derogatory comments listed here, especially when trying to get food/drinks outside of the normal hours/menu, the landlord is adamant that this does not happen, all he does is leave the staff to apologise and cover for his miserable attitude.
He will usually size up any customer who walks in and if he does not approve, then you are generally treated in such a bad way that you never want to come back.
He makes most of his money from the rooms and restaurant so he doesn't care whether the bar makes money or not.
The few people who do go there regularly go there because they want a quiet miserable pub to drown their sorrows in.

The Dukes Head, Heath and Reach

A nice old village pub with a log burner and nice regulars and staff.
They also have a large French Briard sheepdog called Duke who is a big gentle giant.
