Welcome to The Engineer
Built in 1862/1865, The Engineer was originally called “The Bird in Hand” but has since been known as The Engineer when the railway from London to Bedford was built in 1868.
With a lively and sociable atmosphere, The Engineer boasts a main bar area, dining room, family room suitable for children and dogs, sports bar and large covered garden, garden pods and covered smoking area.
We have a wide range of lagers, cask ales, ciders and craft beers on draught. With an extensive wine, gin and spirit list too, we’re sure you’ll find something just for you here at The Engineer.
Our menu is full of classic pub dishes and we serve a traditional roast with homemade Yorkshires every Sunday.
Children are not permitted in the Main Bar and Sports Bar. Please book a table in the restaurant or garden if your booking includes children. Please note dogs are welcome in our garden but not permitted inside the restaurant.

This is the first league meeting between the North East rivals since the 2015/16 season, and the Black Cats will hope to emulate their performance in that clash having triumphed 3-0.

Coverage of the Premier League match at Gtech Community Stadium. The Bees were comfortable 5-2 winners when they last hosted the Whites here in the 2022/23 season, but both teams have seen a huge amount of changes to their squads since then, with all five goalscorers from that clash having moved to new clubs.
Coverage of the Premier League match at Old Trafford, featuring two teams who will hope to qualify for Europe this season. The Cherries have claimed successive 3-0 victories here in the last two campaigns, with Dean Huijsen, Justin Kluivert, and Antoine Semenyo all on the scoresheet last time out.
