The Embankment, Bedford

The Embankment, Bedford Beautiful riverside pub and hotel 🥂
Restored to its late-Victorian heyday ✨
Set on the Great River Ouse in the heart of Bedford 🍃
(2956)

The Embankment has been a Peach Pub since 2008 since when it has become one of the premier spots in the heart of Bedford. The clue to our location is in the name! Bedford’s beautifully-landscaped Embankment has wonderful views out over the River Great Ouse, the boathouses and all the hustle and bustle of life on the river. The Embankment Hotel was built in 1891 and we renovated it to reflect its l

ate-Victorian heyday, but with all the modern comforts & facilities of a great pub. The atmosphere is relaxed and hospitable. There is no stuffy hotel lobby or residents’ lounge, just a team of friendly faces to look after you.

Both sides of the Ouse 🎣

💭 Make the most of Bedford's Embankment & visit the pub named after it - it just makes sense!

From coffee dates or a glass of Tattinger, to Sunday roasts or a selection of nibbles, we really do it all 🍸
