The Crooked Billet
About
The Crooked Billet is a 16th‑century, Grade II‑listed village pub located in Newton Longville, Milton Keynes. Set in a historic farmhouse, it combines a warm, welcoming atmosphere with a commitment to sustainability and quality. Patrons can enjoy real ales and a menu that blends traditional pub fare with seasonal, locally sourced ingredients – from a classic Sunday lunch to a modern autumn menu and a festive spread that runs from November. Beyond the bar, the pub is dog‑friendly, welcoming well‑behaved four‑legged friends with water bowls and a dedicated “doggy dish” on the menu. Outside, a spacious beer garden offers al fresco seating, while the interior features a fireplace that creates a cosy winter retreat. The venue hosts regular events such as Disco Bingo, Quiz Night, and weekly Steak Night, each with a small play‑fee or title‑fee. Whether you’re a history enthusiast drawn to the pub’s heritage, a foodie craving fresh, modern‑twist pub classics, or a social butterfly looking to mingle over a night of games and music, the Crooked Billet offers a quintessential English pub experience for families, couples, or solo travellers alike.
