Opening and last night
The Halfway House became Table Table in November 2007 and later returned to Beefeater. It was named with the Brache in local reporting about the 10 September 2026 closures. This is a different restaurant from the first Beefeater at Enfield. East Anglia CAMRA ↗ Lutonian ↗
Local record
History of this pub
The Halfway House on Luton Road was a Whitbread pub long before it was a Beefeater, standing by the Halfway House roundabout where Luton Road meets Luton's Dunstable Road. Plans drawn by the brewery's architect in 1960 show a substantial house with an assembly hall and stage, a restaurant, saloon and public bars and a snack bar. In 1981 Whitbread transferred it to its Beefeater Steak Houses company; it later reopened as a Table Table in November 2007, then returned as a Beefeater after a full refurbishment in February 2017, with a 42-room Premier Inn alongside.
The Lutonian reported in August 2026 that public dining would end, while breakfast, evening meals and drinks would continue for Premier Inn guests. This is the Dunstable Halfway House, separate from the original Enfield Beefeater.
