Exceptional experience in Northampton

“Thank you to Lucy at Carmen Walker for another super cut and big hair blow dry. Having tracked Lucy down to Carmen Walker, I was pleased to get booked in for a long overdue trim and blow dry. I’m really impressed with the Authentic Beauty Concept products used before my blow dry as my hair has stayed smooth and shiny all weekend. I have my next two appointments already confirmed, which is fab. I highly recommend a visit.”

“We have recently had a kitchen refurbishment with Saturn Interiors and Kitchens and we are absolutely delighted with the end result. We had a wall knocked down so opened up the dining room/kitchen area to a larger room. The team at Saturn are very friendly and approachable and really want to do the best job possible for you. We took a long time to plan our project, there was a lot to think about. We did quite a lot of our own research for some aspects, especially the sliding doors and the flooring. Ben and Tony helped at every level and we worked together to come up with the end result. There were changes made, we weren't keen on the initial kitchen design but they embraced our ideas and we were all happy with the end design Everyone that actually came to do the work on site were a delight to have around, very friendly, hard working, any minor issues arising were dealt with by them in a very professional and caring way, I felt totally relaxed during the project. I would have Saturn in to do any more work without hesitation”

“Simply, the best shop! Dmitrij is a super friendly! Best advisor!”

“I was recommended to Nikki at ETWT and have been impressed from start to finish. Very helpful, easy to talk to and almost immediate response to any message. If you need help or advice organising a holiday, I’d strongly recommend using this small company.”

“Used these guys a few times over the years. Nothing is ever too much trouble, always fairly priced.”

“My nan has been at the Hawthornes for 18 months and I can't thank them enough for their warm welcome and continued support. The staff are amazing here and genuinely care about the residents wellbeing. The accommodation and facilities are immaculate. Highly recommend.”

“Fantastic customer service. Very friendly and helpful staff Very reasonable prices too Hoghly recommend Will definitely call again”

“I went here today with a very very slow leak on one tyre. Problem diagnosed and fixed in about 20 minutes. Friendly helpful people. Great price. I'm definitely going back to them for all things tyre related. I recommend booking an appointment though as parking spaces are extremely limited and I get the impression they're always busy.”

“I would like to express my sincere appreciation to the letting agency team for their excellent support throughout my home-search journey. From the very beginning, they took the time to understand my job location, family needs, and housing preferences, ensuring that every property shown matched my requirements. Their communication was always clear and professional, and I felt well-guided at each step of the process. The viewing arrangements were well-organised, with genuine consideration for my family’s convenience and privacy. The team’s efforts made the move-in process extremely smooth and stress-free, and the property survey was conducted with great attention to detail, ensuring we could settle in comfortably without any disturbance. I truly value their patience, professionalism, and customer-focused approach. It has been a pleasant experience, and I would highly recommend this agency to anyone looking for a home with personalised and thoughtful service.”

“Darren is a master at his craft. Have not found better in the 7 years I have been in the area. His only crime is not charging enough for such a professional service!!”

“Amazing agency, extremely friendly and welcoming overall!”

“Food was delicious, great atmosphere and service was simply amazing! Highly recommend.”

“I went in to have my breaks checked. They were very approachable yet professional. They assessed the vehicle as a whole in a timely manner with detailed description of the current situation. I was amazed to know the assessment was absolutely free of charge. I’m obviously not looking forward to having my car break down or deteriorate. But for the level of service provided, I don’t mind going in again soon. Top work! Will definitely recommend.”

“These guys are amazing!! After catastrophically failing my MOT these guys were so friendly and helped break down what was broken, why and how much to fix it. I cannot recommend enough thank you all so much ”

“We had a lovely experience at this restaurant. The atmosphere is cozy and welcoming, with rustic walls, soft lighting, and charming decorations that make the place feel both elegant and relaxed. The table was nicely set with candles and festive confetti, adding a celebratory touch to the evening. The service felt attentive and pleasant — we were able to enjoy our drinks comfortably and take our time. The wine and beer were nicely presented, and the overall vibe made it easy to unwind and enjoy good company. It’s the kind of place that’s perfect for a relaxed dinner, a date night, or celebrating something special. Warm ambiance, nice presentation, and a comfortable setting — we had a great time. This plate makes a strong first impression. The steak looks beautifully seasoned, with a generous crust of cracked pepper and a nice sear that suggests it was cooked on high heat to lock in flavor. The sides are inviting and well-balanced. The roasted potatoes look crisp and golden, while the mixed vegetables — broccoli, cauliflower, and carrots — bring color and a healthier counterpoint to the richness of the steak. They appear roasted rather than steamed, which gives them a more flavorful, caramelized finish. The sauce served in a small metal boat adds an elegant restaurant-style presentation. Its creamy texture hints at a peppercorn based sauce. A glass of beer in the background completes the meal perfectly.”

“Nice little Japorea restaurant with good selection of Japanese and Korean staples; probably best sushi/sashimi in town. Was there during quiet period so can’t comment on atmosphere, but ambience was relaxed.”

“I stumbled across Baloo and I’m so glad I did. This place is an absolute gem. From the outside, it looks amazing and from the moment you walk in, you’re greeted with cozy vibes, friendly faces, and the amazing smell of whatever magic is happening in the kitchen. Let’s talk about the food — because it was amazing. Everything tasted fresh and thoughtfully prepared, and it was hands-down one of the best meals I’ve had in a long time. You know it’s good when you're already planning your next visit before you’ve finished your plate.The staff were super welcoming without being overbearing, and they really made the whole experience feel personal. You can tell they care about the details. Whether you’re looking for a relaxed night out or just want to treat yourself to something delicious, Baloo is 100% worth it. Don’t miss out — go hungry and leave happy.”

“Recently visited a friend down in Sandy as he's mentioned the Ghandi before we ended up going for dinner on Sunday, was seated immediately, we ordered drinks were here straight away, food arrived shortly after ordering the potions sizes were absolutely on the money, and incredibly tasty, I was expecting an expensive bill at the end but I couldn't believe how low costing it was to feed 3 of us! Will visit again on our next visit!”

“This was our first experience at Cromwell Cottage. We enjoyed everything about our time here. Our food was cooked perfectly for us - hot, fresh & the steaks to our preference. Staff were attentive, professional, friendly & nothing was too much trouble. Atmosphere was relaxed & happy. Myself & my husband were able to have a conversation without having to shout across the table to each other. We will definitely visit again in the future.”

“A great education provider that also provides training for apprentices in most work areas. One of the top 15 colleges in the country.”

“I absolutely love this place! The food is beyond delicious—every bite is full of amazing flavors. The service is top-notch; the staff is so friendly and makes you feel truly welcome. It’s one of those places where you feel at home from the moment you walk in. If you’re looking for great food, a cozy atmosphere, and fantastic service, this is the place to be! Can’t wait to come back!”

“Took the train from London to see Confidence Man at this great venue. Friendly security and bar staff.There's a cloakroom - just ask a member of bar staff and they charge £2 a coat in a locked room. Reasonable drink prices. With an 800 capacity I managed to be at the front just 4ft away from the stage.Much better than any big corporate arena as you're so close to the band,especially when Confidence Man are all about the energy,dance and interacting with the audience. For the first time I got sprayed with champagne as Sugar Bones does at every gig ..lol The security staff inside the club were friendly and approachable. Easy access to the toilets and bar. If the journey there and back wasn't so long - I spent more time on that than seeing the 2 bands( support one were good too) - I'd go more regularly as they put on a big variety of different genres. The sort of local venue thats died out all over the country - lucky Northampton to have a thriving local music venue. Also a great crowd - friendly and of all ages and up for a good time.Very enthusiastic joining on with singing and dancing.”

“Katie was absolutely wonderful, so warm and welcoming and the highest quality waitress we’ve ever experienced. She was thoughtful, efficient, and even asked what we were celebrating! Katie then brought a special congratulations dessert out with all the others to celebrate the achievement. Food was delightful, prompt despite it being a really busy period. Highly recommend!”

“Found a great price deal online to replace a front tyre, so booked my car in online. The job was done exactly on time, staff polite, and job done very well. Thank you.”

“Umrah Supermarket was recommended by a friend slightly out of my way but thought I’d try it, and honestly I was surprised how organised everything was and from the product they had everything from different brands from different countries. It was very clean store and staff were helpful. The Butchers section was impressive got served straight away and they had everything I required and honestly I found the store itself slightly cheaper than my regular shop / butchers. Definitely recommending this place even if you pop in for a look if you’re in the area of Northampton.”

“Cam here on a busy Saturday night. Although the restaurant was busy we got served very quickly and order food quickly. Our waitress was lovely. The food came out very quickly and tasted nice. My partner really liked the spaghetti carbonara. We had dessert, sticky toffee pudding and the Nutella doughnuts. Very nice and came out quick too. Would come back again.”

“Very impressed with my takeaway. Just left a review on a different site but couldn’t copy & paste, so feel free to read the screenshot for a more detailed review!”

“Lovely environment and plenty of parking”

“Visit every week, on one occasion was behind two old farts who said to the young lad serving, "Have you worked here long?" He replied yes a few months. To which they replied "well you should be quicker!" For starters, they didn't pack their shopping, he did!!!! The poor lad just took it and didn't react. In all the trips I've done there the young lads on the till who let's be honest are probably only on min wage are polite, helpful and a credit to the store.”

“I can’t thank Dr Richards and Aggie enough for what they have done. I had a breast augmentation and from day one I felt so comfortable with them. They tell you what’s right for you so you don’t make the bad/wrong decision, my surgery went perfectly and my aftercare has been fantastic! All the staff at the Northampton clinic are so friendly and welcoming always reassuring and so confident with answering any questions.”
