Grill pub in Northampton

“Great Irish pub with lots of locals and very busy and good atmosphere. Was fully packed yesterday due to the rugby but still quick enough to serve. Beers are great here and good value for money. A very nice first time visit and would come again.”

“Had an excellent Christmas Eve breakfast here today, Chels, our server, was exceptionally accommodating. I had many questions about the menu and she answered them all with confidence. I would definitely come here again! Thanks for making our morning special!”

“Food is amazing lovely atmosphere, friendly staff couldn't fault a thing”

“Milena was our server and she was lovely, went in for my 20th with my boyfriend and she kindly gave me such a delicious cake and happy birthday written in chocolate”

“Had a fantastic time taking my Mum there for a 3-course meal on Mother’s Day. Looked after by staff, friendly faces and delicious food! Thank you so much for making the day so special for us!”

“We went for our 1st year wedding anniversary as we had our reception here last year. As always the service was outstanding the atmosphere is so warm and inviting and the food was absolutely lovely. Thank you for making our anniversary so special. We will see you again soon”

“Hired their function room for a private event and it was wonderful. Ordered a buffet and it was absolutely amazing. Catered to GF and DF guests, everything was laid out beautifully and prepared with care. Would highly recommend.”

“Stayed here for about a week recently bed and breakfast. Everyone was very friendly. Tracy very on it with breakfast every morning making my life as easy as possible. The entire place from the room to the toilets were kept extremely clean and welcoming. Would stay again. Thanks.”

“Great lunch. Arrived just as they opened and orderes small plates. Food came fast and hot. Excellent fish cake and calamari. Chorizo was not at all spicy with pleasing flavour. Good BBQ wings and honey whipped feta was great. No pic of the fiash because we ate it before I thought to take a photo. Great lunch sitting outside in the September sunshine”

“Awesome pub with friendly staff. The land-lady laid on a buffet for my wife's birthday party which we held in the lounge area. We had the whole lounge to ourselves and the hire was free (takings at the bar). Highly recommend. They have great bands on there as well. Food is fab too.”

““The Brave Old Oak is everything you want in a classic English pub. The historic building adds so much character, and the atmosphere is warm and inviting. The staff go above and beyond to make you feel welcome, and the food is absolutely delicious—especially the hearty mains that pair perfectly with their excellent selection of ales. It’s no surprise this place is a local favorite. Highly recommend to anyone visiting Towcester!””

“We held my brother’s wedding celebration at The Woolpack Inn this afternoon and couldn’t have been happier with the experience. We wanted a relaxed, family-style buffet for a small wedding gathering, and it was absolutely perfect. The food was far better than we expected, plentiful, beautifully presented, and with a real touch of luxury. The service was outstanding; every member of staff was polite, attentive, and genuinely caring. Nothing was too much trouble, and every little detail was looked after. A small issue arose during the afternoon, and it was dealt with kindly and professionally, a real credit to the team. Special thanks to Dan, the manager, who was a pleasure to deal with throughout the booking process and so helpful on the day itself. We would highly recommend The Woolpack Inn for any small celebration. They helped make our family day truly special, and we’ll definitely be back soon to dine in the restaurant.”

“Amazing food as per.. service was great and attentive and friendly.. was last night of the 50% discount tonight and the place was full to capacity!! But staff were doing their best to deal with the busy night. Service took a little longer than usual but was to be expected.. a few more staff would have helped the workload but was excellent none the less.. the food was cooked to perfection and thoroughly enjoyed it.. will be one of my go to places in future.. thanks for a lovely eve.”

“Absolutely delicious food, with lots of choice, we all went for the roast, many side dishes included which you pay extra for anywhere else. The service by Callum, Amanda and another young lady was spot on, nothing was too much trouble. All in all, great venue, delicious food and great service, I’m proud to call you my local!!”

“The place is nice and clean!! The staff friendly! Very good prices!! Perfect place for studying and or a meeting especially during the weekend!!!”

“Another amazing time had The Sun Inn, Hardingstone 14 of us, which included 6 children attended The Sun on Saturday 13/12/25 for a festive gathering, with all of us opting for the festive menu As is always the case at this venue, we received a very warm welcome & shown to our table by Alice Once our party has all arrived, Alice notified the kitchen & within minutes, we has all been served hot, fresh & delicious meals with absolutely no complaints from anyone in our group Our Waitress's were incredibly efficient, ensuring that our tables were regularly cleared of plates & glasses & they checked in with us every so often to ensure we were happy. Furthemore, at no time did we ever feel pressured to vacate our table, which led to a thoroughly enjoyable & relaxed occasion Suffice to say, it is with confidence that I commend the team at the The Sun, Hardingstone, whom, from the initial booking (some 5 weeks ago) to the time that we left the venue, were nothing but outstanding. A huge cry also goes out to the following staff for making this occasion so special; Grace, Hollie & Chantelle for managing the original booking & for checking in with me on the odd occasion to make sure there were no changes & that everything was ok Sienna, Jess & Sheobe for looking after us on the day I also wish to thank the kitchen team, in particular Mustfa for serving up some incredibly amazing & delicious food for us all. The presentation of the food was superb & above all, we all thoroughly enjoyed it, including the children who all had Burgers! The kitchen team & Chefs are invaribly the unsung hero's of any hospitality establishment & Mustfa is clearly a credit to The Sun & the wider McManus team for preparing & serving up some incredible meals. So on behalf of our party, thank you Mustfa & please keep up the great work, it really is appreciated by me Finally, I also had the opportunity to meet with Gretta, the new General Manager who was incredibly welcoming & warm & someone who clearly brings a breadth of experience to the role, so I wish you well in your new role Gretta, as I sense that The Sun & your fantastic team there is most definitely in safe hands In the meantime, many thanks to you all & best wishes, Kevin H PS If I left any off the roll-call, please pass along my thanks to them too! :)”

“Fabulous menu and service. We had the festive menu and it was delicious. Our waitress Megan was lovely and we were treated so lovely by all the staff. We will definitely be back in soon.”

“Lovely pub.. friendly staff and locals.. good beer selection.. large beer garden.. dog friendly”

“It's the First time I have eaten at this place, the steak was amazing, The service was 10/10, there was one little mistake with our order but it was very quickly rectified, The manager took off the cost of one of the mains to make up for the mistake, which was more than she had to do. And as a bonus I got a free dessert as it was my birthday. So overall service was a 10, the meal was a 10, would definitely go there again.”

“This is a great local Indian. The food is solid and the staff superb. You will not come away feeling disappointed.”

“Highly recommend this venue. The food is absolutely beautiful. Seriously people got to be 1 of the best boozer s in Bedford. Chef deserves a Michelin star. Gentle Man to boot.”

“We had a 40th birthday party here and it was fantastic. Hannah was amazing so helpful and friendly when booking and planning everything. Although we were booked outside on the day it was raining so she moved us inside and was super reassuring. The staff were great there (Brooke in particular looked after us) she was wonderful and helpful. The food was really good aswell!!! I will absolutely be using halleys commet in future for any parties we do.”

“Our go to food establishment for celebrations. Enjoyed a 70th birthday Sunday lunch with a group of visually impaired and disabled friends. The manager was superb and got us seated quickly even though the pub was expecting a hoard of netballers! The food, as always, was superb and served very promptly. We were extremely grateful that the mix up with our discount voucher was speedily rectified. We LOVE the Briars.”

“We had a wonderful dining experience tonight at Harvester! From the moment we arrived, the atmosphere was welcoming and relaxed, and the food was delicious as always.

Thank you, Julia, for making our night so pleasant – we’ll definitely be back!”
