The Nags Head

Apr 26th, 2023

Due to last minute changes to my travel plans I ended up staying over night in Dunstable. Rather than sitting in my room bored and alone on a Friday night I decided to leave my hotel and venture out to see what was happening on the Dunstable High Street. It seemed very quiet, probably because it was the middle of the month and the weather was miserable! However I decided to keep walking hoping to find some sort of night life going on. eventually after a 5min walk I saw a pub called the Nags Head, there were a few ppl outside and I could hear the music blaring inside, (old school garage tunes) that I instantly knew and took me back to my younger days, I was hooked, and was straight away drawn in. The bouncer on the door treated me warmly and was cool to exchange some lighthearted banter. Walking through the doors I saw the pub wasnt huge, but the 80 / 90 so people were clearly having a great time, which meant I instantly felt comfortable in my surroundings, everyone was friendly and there was an inviting vibe present. The bar area wasnt crowded with loads of people waiting to order drinks, but rather everyone was having a great time dancing to the music or chatting to one another. Not being a local or a regular here , I thought i would feel awkward just randomly going into a pub and talking to people, but straight away I got chatting and everyone seemed cool, non judgemental or hostile but just all out to have a great time and were happy to exchange a few friendly words, or to have a little banter or to have a brief, light hearted silly dance off with me. The DJ that night was the daughter of the owners, which gave it even more the feeling this was a family run pub, and well managed so all guests felt comfortable enough to let loose and have a great night. I could not fault anything at all. Deciding to go for a walk was a good decision in itself, but finding the Nags Head and walking through the doors meant I had the best Friday night this year! The bouncers were friendly and respectful and I had a real laugh with them as well as meaningful heart to heart chats. The DJ was open to requests and played tracks that kept everyone dancing and having a great time. This is a long review, hopefully Ive articulated my opinion and made my point clear as I have only just come out of the Nags head at closing time (3am Friday night) and am writing this review at 4am if you live in Dunstable, passing through, or stopping over, get yourself to the Nags head asap, otherwise you have missed out! On the main corner and crossroads in the heart of Dunstable, you cant miss it! I hope you get the chance to have a night out at the Nags head and your enjoy yourself as much as I did!
