Komakino . left this review about The Dukes
Much-lauded for its resurrection from conversion to an Indian restaurant around ten years ago, the re-conversion hasn't given much back in terms of decor as internally it's still rather Indian restaurant-like with brightly-painted walls, pine flooring, wicker-style chairs and sofas giving off more of a bar vibe. Leighton Buzzard Love Struck was the sole ale on, with one further pump unclipped. By contrast, The Axe & Compass and The Star were a lot busier on a February Tuesday evening

Former Grade II listed public house which was originally made into licenced premises in 1745 when two cottages were knocked together to form a pub.
Ceased being a pub in 2006 and is now an Indian restaurant called Shaanti
