“This store has a wide and varied selection of whiskies (my personal favourite) and other drinks. The staff are excellent and knowledgeable too. You may find the odd whisky slightly cheaper at a supermarket, but those places cannot match the range J Wadsworth has. Highly recommended!”

“Really nice restaurant, interestingly decorated making it a cosy atmosphere. Food really nice, good selection.”

“Country Properties have been amazing and sponsored our Christmas fair at the school for several years. Jamie has been really helpful and the boards always help with raising awareness for our little village school fair and the money they donate makes a massive difference to the children at the school. It’s really nice to see a local company supporting the community like this and I hope the tradition carries on for many more years! Very professional and an asset to our community.”

“Amazing food. The pulled beef lasagne was the best I've had. Rich, succulent, so indulgent. Utterly delicious. Lovely staff and atmosphere, with a cosy real fire”

“This is the best restaurant I have ever eaten at. The service was amazing, and every course tasted so good. It was honestly the best meal I’ve ever had. You really need to try this place. I highly recommend it!”

“I have been going to Evolution for many years now, both for MOT’s and general repairs, services etc. Simon and team are absolutely fantastic. I always recommend to friends and family. I would not go anywhere else. I have been rescued a couple of times when I’ve broken down too. Amazing in every way. Always put my mind at ease, and fairly priced. This is the best garage I have ever taken any of my vehicles to. My only regret, not finding them sooner! Thank you Simon, and everybody at Evolution.”

“We had a lovely dinner last night at DNA Steak and Grill in Towcester. We were a table of four and everything was spot on — the food was delicious, especially the steaks, cooked perfectly and full of flavour. The atmosphere was relaxed and welcoming, and the service made it even better. Huge thanks to Elena, Zuza, Ella and Alys ❤️ — all of them were amazing, so friendly and attentive the whole evening. One of the best spots in town — we’ll definitely be back soon!”

“Incredible.... Big smile on arrival from the lovely young lady that seated us. Meatballs and risotto for mains and tiramisu and cheesecake for dessert, everything was perfect, portion size was brilliant and the wine we had just made it all even better. Service was very fast, all the staff were very friendly and it was all at a very reasonable price as well, will definitely be coming back here for more!”

“I only recently discovered Ryan’s cafe and have loved it since. The staff are all so friendly ! The food is wonderful. I’ve only been for breakfasts so far, and they’re always ready quickly, great price, hot and delicious !! In the summer it’s lovely that you have the option to sit outside too! 10/10”

“We absolutely love coming here. I Wish we found it sooner. We always used the Thai in olney. At first the restaurant isn’t the most pleasing to the eye as it’s shared with a shop but the food is what we go for and it’s delicious every time. The service is great. Every single dish and starter has always been piping hot. Fresh and soooo tasty. Also it’s great value for money. The pad Thai is our favourite and much cheaper than the olney Thai so I do hope they keep the prices how they are as we wouldn’t be able to come as often. We treated my nan this weekend. We’ve only eaten in but will try a takeaway one time but it’s hard to travel food and keep the quality the same. I have requested they add duck dishes or duck pancakes would be lush. Thanks so much imchai and keep up the good work. It’s a hidden gem. You need to try it and you’ll see why everyone gives 5*. I can only imagine anyone moaning has been really unlucky or just trying to get money off”

“A lovely little cafe with the nicest owners you could hope to meet. Charming to all the customers who arrived while we were there and impressively supportive to a customer with additional needs. The cake we had was delicious and the prices quoted on the menu were extremely reasonable. Do not be put off because this is not the most stylishly appointed venue and note that there are more tables to the rear.”

“I thought I did a review but clearly not . Alert this is the place to go . Service excellent on the phone in person the lady is lovely to talk to . Food out of this world well compared to any other in irthlingborough Rushden or higham we have tried The crispy shredded beef is amazing every time it's the best Highly recommended if you want to be full and have flavour . The waiting time never had a issue either maybe when busy busy 30 minutes wait . None of this 1 hour wait . Just ordering now as we speak lots of love to the family run business cheers to many more years of great food ordered by many And if your worried where to park there is a car park at the back behind the public toilets near the church if you aren't a local person and want to try . For 3 of us we spend around 30 in total and get quite a bit remember card payers order has to be 20pounds of more anything under its cash only .”

“I had the pleasure of experiencing Moo Hatch at our recent Sales meeting, where they provided lunch for all the staff and it was an absolute hit! The burgers they served were nothing short of amazing, leading to rave reviews from everyone in attendance. The quality of food, combined with their efficient service and the convenience of their mobile setup, made our event even more special. It’s not every day you come across a burger that can genuinely impress a diverse group of people but Moo Hatch pulled it off with ease. Highly recommend for any event or gathering where you want your guests delighted and satisfied!”

“I have had Fratelli's a few times now and can honestly say that they are my favourite restaurant! The food is insane!! The best burgers I've ever had by far!!!! the people are amazing!!! Very friendly & inviting atmosphere! I would highly recommend! Milton Keynes' new gem!”

“Tried them for the first time on Thursday where they were located at the MK Village Pavillion. Lovely bunch of people and great food! Got the XL Chicken Gyros Box and it did not disappoint. The tzatziki was delicious too, will definitely go back again.”

“We got married at Kilworth House in October. The staff were absolutely amazing, Caroline was so helpful from start to finish and we felt so well looked after. We were able to put all of our trust into the staff at Kilworth, and our wedding day was beyond perfect. The food was amazing and everyone commented on how much they loved the rooms and enjoyed their stay. The staff were all so accommodating and we are very grateful to everyone for making our day so special. Thank you!”

“Forget skimpy fillings—this is an epic handful of quality ingredients. The stars, as you'd hope, are the sausages. They're juicy, perfectly seasoned, and clearly a cut above the average cafe fare. Paired with thick-cut, well-cooked bacon, a satisfying fried egg, and a slice of punchy black pudding, it’s a full English crammed into a soft, generously sized white bap. It's everything a proper British breakfast should be: hearty, flavourful, and utterly unpretentious. If you're looking for an honest, top-tier bap that will genuinely set you up for the day (or cure last night's sins), the Super Sausage has perfected the formula.”

“Visited French Affaire for a birthday breakfast and it was my first visit. The dishes were delivered to our table quickly and were really tasty. I had an oat flat white which was also very nice! I’d definitely recommend a visit.”

“Don't know the area at all, walked round looked at a few coffee shops seemed pricey for a brew, and was all prepacked heat up behind the counter jobs. Saw a road worker by his van, asked him if he new any decent places for a fry up, he suggested hitchin lol. As I was walking away he said hang on there a place down there called star.. So ended up in here, very clean, nice and pleasant staff at counter waiting. Food prices on par with similar styled cafes. Good selection, food and tea came out piping hot and fresh. Can't fault anything. Will use again if in the area. Was eating on my own as only in area as motorbike having work done in the area. Felt welcome and didn't feel uncomfortable at all like you can eating in some places when on your tod. Thanks guys”

“A beautiful tea room with a vintage feel. The owners are attentive without being intrusive and the food is beautiful. The afternoon tea does need to be pre-booked as it is all made fresh; the scones were still warm from the oven! Highly recommended and we will definitely be returning.”

“What an absolute gem of a place The food is fantastic i have eaten in the restaurant in the past Brilliant staff This time I had a takeaway as we were staying nearby and had our little dog with us We had Alleppey mango and coriander chicken Coorgi coconut lamb Lemon and cashew nut rice Peshwari naan The food was absolutely lovely as always Next time we will come to the restaurant It gets very busy best to book a table”

“Oh my! This is THE best Italian restaurant I have ever been to! The staff are so lovely! Service is fast! But the food….. oh my absolutely amazing and massive portions! Come here if you can! It won’t disappoint!”

“This was my very first visit to Chez Jerome, I visited with a friend and we were made very welcome. We sat at table no 1 in the window, which looked very Christmasy. We had a extensive menu to choose from. We both chose the festive 3 course menu. I had smoked kipper for starter, my friend chose melon and prawn cocktail. Both were absolutely delicious. We were also served fresh baked small baguette type slices So tasty we finished the lot off! For our mains I chose salmon with seasonal vegetables, my friend chose duck also with seasonal vegetables. The size of the meal was deceiving, there was plenty and we both struggled to get through it, again both were cooked to perfection. Dessert was an amaretto espresso coffee dessert followed by a lovely liquor coffee,I had TIA Maria and my friends had baileys. We also had a glass of water and I had a glass of rosé wine and my friend had a soft drink. The price of the whole meal was very reasonable for what we had. We both thoroughly enjoyed it. My experience here for the first time was really good, I thoroughly enjoyed the atmosphere and we were made very welcomed. Thank you to the chef and owners of Chez Jerome and waitress for a great experience.”

“Absolutely loved our experience at Oblique! The food was simply amazing — every dish was full of flavor and beautifully presented. The hospitality was top-notch; the staff were attentive, friendly, and made us feel right at home. Special shoutout to the owner for being so welcoming and ensuring everything was perfect. Quick responses and genuine care made our visit truly memorable. Highly recommend this place to anyone looking for great food and exceptional service!”

“Moved to the area and heard nothing but great things about this place, visited twice now and you simply must try it. It’s hidden away but some of the best Mexican food I’ve ever had. The customer service is exceptional, the manager is extremely friendly and chatty and provides such a warm, welcoming atmosphere, we have chatted both times and he’s lovely. And the food.. 10/10. The nachos are incredible, mains are huge and absolutely delicious. Great variety and plenty of GF/Vegan options. Don’t miss this place, it’s the full package and such a reasonable price. Great Saturday evening atmosphere too. I will absolutely be going back again and again.”

“This is an excellent place for seasonal vegetables. They sell all sorts of foods in the shop, including pies and cheeses. The plants are excellent and are a lot cheaper than a garden centre and the staff are helpful and friendly.”

“Staff Friendly, food ok, drink only can order as bottle instead of glasses, but everything still alright. Some people will celebrate their birthday here, birthday songs provided.”

“Just came in for a quick pint before a wedding. Went for the American IPA. Good service. Lovely pint. Even though it was busy, it was lovely and peaceful sat in the beer garden.”

“We called in lunchtime on an awful day( pouring rain and windy) needless to say we were the only diners. Vijay our waiter was excellent: helpful, polite, friendly and attentive. The food was absolutely amazing. We had a selection of starters as we like to have a ‘tapas’ type lunch. You get an idea of the standard of food that way. There is complimentary bread and dips and a very good choice of wine. Definitely coming back with friends and family for an evening slap up!!!”

“Beautiful food… I had Bacalhau com natas and it was better than in Portugal itself. Good size portions and nice kids food too! Drove 45 minutes for lunch but was definitely worth it! Will be booking again soon! Thank you”
