Will Larter left this review about Morning Star

Only a quick visit at the end of a long day on my bike, but I'd been here before with a Luton Town friend and not written a review. I must admit to being encouraged to return because the late Alan Winfield listed it among his favourite five pubs. As described by others, there are six hand pumps on the fairly small bar counter, with a mix of nationally recognised brands (Doom Bar, Proper Job and Boltmaker) and a selection from three regionally popular breweries (Castle Rock, Welbeck Abbey and Milestone). I went for Welbeck Abbey Red Feather which was in very good nick (NBSS 3.5). Even just this short distance away from the cathedral it's clear that this is a pub for locals and beer drinkers rather than tourists.

The Morning Star is a locals boozer where the entrance opens straight onto the L-shaped bar counter that supports standard and premium keg alongside six hand pumps that were drawing Sharp’s Doom Bar, At Austell’s Proper Job, TT Boltmaker, Milestone’s Shine On, Brew York’s Calmer Chameleon and Welbeck’s Red Feathers. The seating to the left, right and rear was fairly busy during my recent Thursday evening visit. The air was full of friendly chatter, no music or televisions. The service was polite and I liked it in here so I’d return without fuss.

A proper locals local. The bar is straight in front of you as you enter with seating areas to the left and right. A fairly pedestrian range of beers on the 6 handpumps, but my pint was in good nick. Full description of the inside by Soup Dragon below.
