"This wasn 't my first time dining at 'The Pantry ' so my expectations were high after previous postive experiences with their service and food, however this is my first review of this friendly and well known Bedford Italian eatery. On arrival we were given a warm welcome by the front of house staff and were shown to our table promptly. There was certainly plenty of space between tables which in my opinion certainly made it covid friendly. The informal, warm and relaxed atmosphere certainly encourages a postive and enjoyable dining experience also. We ordered six tapas dishes off of the tapas menu which were delicious, freshly cooked and vibrant. I would certainly recommend you try the sautéed King Prawns and the Whitebait which were very moreish!! For my main course I ordered the Pasta Cozze which was spaghetti with mussels cooked in a white wine sauce with cherry tomatoes. All my mussels were prepared, and cooked beautifully. The spaghetti was perfectly al-dente which I prefer, and in my opinion is just how it should be cooked. My wife ordered the chicken cutlet with fries and salad which she enjoyed. The bread crumb coating covering the chicken wasn 't soaked in oil but delightfully golden brown and crispy. We also sampled the lobster ravioli which was cooked to perfection along with a homemade pizza which my son really enjoyed. It has been a while since we had previously dined at the pantry, but I can honestly say in my opinion the service and food has remained excellent. Thank you for an excellent lunch, and we will certainly return again soon."

"A quiet, clean pub in the Wetherspoon's chain, Goodman's Field has little or no character, and about as much charm as a variable rate ISA. However, we shouldn't really hold this against it since what it lacks in charm it also lacks in offence. It's a large, quiet, modern pub situated just round the corner from Tower Gateway. Like most Wetherspoons, it has themed kitchen nights, such as a Curry Night on Thursdays. The curry is bland but satisfying par for the course really, and is also very reasonably priced with generous portions. Where this pub does excel itself though, is in the selection of guest beers, ales and bitters. Ranging from an American bitter that weighs in at a hefty 8% abv (which while tasty does resemble a pint of mildly carbonated whisky) to a Dutch beer made with chocolate (which does taste as weird as it sounds), it's worth seeing what's on offer. If you fancy a quiet drink as you pass through the area, possibly as a resting spot before moving on, this large, quiet comfortable pub is probably right up your street. There is a plethora of seating, with a comfy area boasting several large leather armchairs, and two or three flat screen televisions showing sports at a low volume, when there is sport to show. Add to that the fact the pub is open on Sundays in an area of London usually devoid of life, and this pub is ideal when you have a large group of folk looking for a drink, and the company is more important than the venue. Be aware though there are better pubs in the area, such as The Dickens Inn, but Goodman's Field does fill a gap in the pub market, playing to those who don't like the hustle and bustle of a busy, mostly standing room only pub, but would like to sit down with friends, and chat over an inoffensive curry and a pint of beer with something interesting in it."
