Strongers . left this review about Midsummer Tap
There was a speed quiz on during a recent Thursday evening visit to the Midsummer Tap, so it was very busy with all tables taken, but thankfully I managed to grab a table by the bar that had been reserved but the people were no shows. The counter with premium keg and Neck Oil runs across the rear wall where it faces a line of high tables and then open plan standard tables and chairs. There are booths up the right-hand wall and televisions throughout were airing muted European football via TNT Sports and Premier League darts via Sky Sports. The service was polite and this was the most pubby place I found this end of town.

Once a Slug & Lettuce, this pub is primarily a sports bar. Although it also seems to serve a wide range of fairly standard craft beers, along with food. Sharp's Doom Bar is the real ale, whilst they also had a real cider in the shape of Sandford Orchards Devon Scrumpy.
TVs showing live sports are everywhere you look. Both a Championship game and a Scottish game were being shown on our visit. Practically every table was reserved for later in the day, presumably for a live Premier League game.
A wide selection of board games were also available to play, with one table possessing a video game console you could play.
Not a bad option if in the centre of Milton Keynes. Although I could imagine that this place would get packed and be too noisy when a popular sporting fixture is being shown.

Popped in to see what ale was on but a little disappointed to find only St Austell Tribute available although it was fine.
