MK Biergarten, Milton Keynes

Milton Keynes' first micropub and bottleshop opened in 2016 in a retail unit in a prestigious residential development alongside the Grand Union Canal close to Wolverton station.

The bottle shop is in front as you enter and the bar to your left toward the far end.

The corner bar has one cask ale, sometimes from a local breweries and six keg fonts for German and British craft beer. Tap ciders, wine and spirits are also served. There is also a wide range of interesting bottled and canned beers and cider from the shelves or chilled cabinets, which can also be consumed in the bar or purchased and taken away.

The bar has rustic furniture with low and standard height tables, wooden chairs with cushions, and three three-seater settees. A bookcase has board games and packs of cards. Outside seating is also available.

Street food is available on most Fridays, with bar nibbles like nuts and crisps available all the time. There is live music at weekends and a monthly quiz.

The Bottleshop (200+ bottles) is arranged into sections for different styles of beer, both from local breweries and from across the UK and the world. There is also a range of ciders, soft drinks and wine. The large fridges keep beers chilled for drinking or take-away.
