"Not the best experience. Joined for lunch and what we wanted to order was unavailable. We order a chicken toasted sandwich and ham, egg and chips. It took about 45 mins to an hour to come out. The sandwich come out first and it looked as if it had been thrown together and didn't look appetising. Had to wait another 10 minutes for the ham egg and chips to come. I still hadn't eaten the toasted hot sandwich as I wasn't given any cutlery or sauces (it was meant to come with mayo in the sandwich but it didn't and was dry I had to call another waitress over to ask for them and the other dish to come out. 5 minutes later the cutlery and sauces came, and so did the ham egg and chipa and the salt was in packets (ok fine! but then they were all empty (people had used them and put the empty pockets back in the tray . Couldn't be bothered to ask for more again. Ketchup was in a heinz bottle and as well as hellmans mayo... the ketchup defo wasn't heinz as it was watery and vinegary. I don't mind cheaper ketchup but it was more the principle of stating it was the premium stuff when it wasn't- this wouldn't be any good for people with potential allergies. Not sure if the mayo was actually hellmans (again more of allergy purposes . The waitress didnt ask if we had any allergies which i believe is now a legal requirement. A lot of other people also weren't getting the food they were wanting as it wasn't available and the waitresses didn't know what table was what and asking people what they had ordered. I still paid for the meals as I can see they are trying to run it as best as possible and I mentioned at the till this wasn't a good experience but before I return this does need to be rectified."

The King William IV is a cosy little pub situated at the bottom end of Kempston in Bedford. It has a homely feel with wide beams and comfortable seating

Unfortunately the cook was having a meltdown when we arrived, and couldn't get any food, the staff gave us a complementary drink as way of an apology and we left.

Bar staff very friendly. Didn't have any real ale on tap, which was bit of a shock. Surprised at the high price of lagers. I'd not been there for quite a while. Probably a long time before I go again.

Visit to see my good friend, and interim manager, Mark on Xmas Eve. A lovely old pub, full of corners and nooks, allegedly haunted too...beers good, food looked great...needs more local support but it's in good hands to get there

The restaurant provided poor and slow service, despite having pre-ordered our meals. The pork was overcooked and inedible, the vegetables were cold, and there was no custard available for the apple pie. Unfortunately, this experience spoiled Mother's Day for my 94-year-old mum.
