High Street North

High Street North runs through the centre of Dunstable and has many interesting and listed buildings. Journey through the middle of town and look at the fantastic heritage we have in our town. So, join me on a tour of High Street North

One of the listed buildings along the high street is The Old Sugar Loaf which was listed in 1951. Built in about 1717. It became a fashionable stopping place for horse-drawn carriages. Queen Victoria and Prince Albert stopped there in 1841. Today The Sugar Loaf offers food, drinks and regular entertainment, open from 10 am each day until late.  Also on High Street North is The Nags Head which has just had a major refurbishment and offers an all-day food menu from 10 am and live music each weekend.

Brand new to High Street North is the sports bar Shotz and Potz which is open from 11 am until late.  Make a booking or just walk in for a game of pool.
