Shame this live music venue is being refurbished as a themed modern pub

Best pub in bedford, great pool table and jukebox and the pub is full of the friendliest metalheads and rock fans.
Would be a shame if someone ever tried to destroy it and make it mainstream like every other pub on the high street 🙄

Popped in before the Ferocious Dog gig & had a couple of ales, with my partner enjoying a JD or 2. Played pool 🎱 & offered our condolences to the landlady for the loss of another great live music venue....RIP THE BEAR

The home of alternative culture in Bedford.
Live music, dj nights, sensibly priced drinks, pool, great atmosphere.
At least until the corporate owners (Admiral/Proper Pubs) turn it into yet another faceless Wetherspoons clone.

We were doing a stag night. My view it was probably the best pub we crawled to around the high street. Great music.

Bit of a strange entrance to this pub, but once inside it’s friendly enough and for rock music fans a must visit. There’s loads of seating at the bar and it’s nice admiring the decorations surrounding the bottles on display! Staff are friendly, there’s a pool table and jukebox with a pleasant communal feel throughout. It might not be the cosiest of pubs in the area but it’s well worth checking out.

Great atmosphere, friendly staff. As designated driver, good range of non-alcoholic options. Loved the beer garden and excellent live music.
