Just a quick pint, then I'm off left this review about The Market
Apparently my last visit to this eye-catching old pub overlooking one of the marketplaces was back in 2008 when it had already been 'done up' in the corporate idea of an old-fashioned 'ale house' style (with lots of wood) and was quite food-led, and little seems to have changed since then. This time we found all but one of the nine handpumps in use, with six cask ales - including Landlord, Abbot, Oakham JHB and Acorn's Talus IPA - and a couple of ciders.

I remember coming here about 20 years ago with some of my Luton Town mates when there wasn't a game on. It was a Marstons pub then, I believe but it's quite different now. It seems almost fashionable, to judge by the Friday evening crowd, but it's a real ale pub with seven cask ales on the bar (see photos for six, plus Gorlovka which was out of reach because of bar hangers). My half of Acorn Talus was good (NBSS 3.5) but very similar to several other beers from this brewery - not a criticism, just an observation. Quite busy at 6pm on Friday, but the background music was still intrusive. Is it just me? Quite possibly. The door closer on the way to the toilet has failed, so there's a loud clang every 10 seconds, but I still like it here. I may have had too many beers, I'm becoming tolerant. (PS The Gorlovka was very good too.)

A good pub on the market square, as might be guessed. The fairly dark interior has a stone floor and is comfortable enough. It had a good range of ales, seemingly well-kept, but it felt a bit bistro-ish on the front. On the pumps were Little Critters Blonde Bear, Bradfield Farmers Pale, Titanic Plum Porter, Abbot, TT Landlord and Jaipur, plus some ciders.
