“Fancied a Sunday dinner after long drive and didn't want to stop at a large plastic chain pub. The Plough was exactly what we were looking for and very pleased we stopped. Nice atmosphere, good food and friendly service. We will be stopping off again and would highly recommend.”

“Been here a few times in the last few weeks and in this time I've had fish & chips, a roast and a chicken burger. All of those dishes were very nice but the true standout is the garlic mushroom starter. Something about it is just spectacular... Prices on food and drink are all very reasonable. We took advantage of the £20 for three courses (including Sunday roast) on a Sunday and I think that is great value. Beer garden is nice too.”

“I recently organised to come to Zapato Lounge with my work colleagues last Friday. The atmosphere, food, staff and the overall organisation for a Christmas booking was fantastic. There was someone who is Gluten Free and also a couple of people who are vegetarians and all requests were taken very seriously which was reassuring. Myself and the rest of my colleagues all commented how the food was lovely and we really enjoyed ourselves. I just wanted to say thank you for the lovely service & experience!”

“A wonderful little Bed & Breakfast in a quaint little town! The service is fantastic, the staff are super friendly and extremely helpful. The food is delicious and it has a great pub and patio as well. Highly recommend the Full English Breakfast, the Sausage & Mash, and the Sunday Roast! Breakfast is included when you stay at the B&B. It’s very convenient that they also offer a take away breakfast box if you don’t want to have a sit down breakfast. The rooms are also very comfortable. Awesome place for a meal, drinks, or to stay a few nights!”

“Sunday lunch was Devine hubby had the sirloin beef & chicken he said beef melted in his mouth I had d veggie option which was lush both came with all d trimming, new chef has done a sterling job. Service was impeccable, we will be back”

“Great food at very reasonable prices. We had the Giggle special, American and Scottish. All were fantastic options. Friendly staff. Like the decor. Seating outside... for the warmer months. Definitely recommend!!”

“We hired Yellow Bus Catering for our American themed corporate event. They were so helpful, great to deal with and provided an excellent service. They arrived on time, worked around our event timing and most importantly the burgers were delicious! Would highly recommend and look forward to having them back again... maybe to try the pizzas next time!”

“Super diner with American theme. Cute train travelling around the perimeter. Food was great, we had eggs benedict. Service was good, lovely server.”

“A day trip up from Kent today looking around the area, a lovely pub staff very welcoming & friendly . The Food was excellent & nicely presented, a lovely garden on a beautiful sunny day. We will be back on our next visit , thanks again.”

“Stayed overnight and ate in the restaurant. Amazing service, warm and friendly but also efficient. The food was also great I hear it got new owners 5 months ago and then took it from the highbrow place it was before back to a top notch, still elevated, local. I honestly think the new owners got EVERYTHING right. The rooms were also clean, inviting and comfortable beds. Well recommend”

“I had never been to Althorp Coaching Inn until I was recommended their brilliant open mic event, that happens once a month in the barn. George is a brilliant and welcoming host who delivers excellent sound quality, making performing an absolute joy. It is the best of any I have been too. The staff at the bar are brilliant and the decor and atmosphere is superb. Thanks to visiting the open mic last Tuesday, I became aware of Liane Carroll performing on the Thursday and bought a ticket. I was delighted to see more events planned. I wold not have found this delightful venue were it not for the highly recommended open mic. I am looking forward to eating there next time.”

“Absolutely amazing experience at Wama’s Lounge in Kettering! The food was incredible - full of flavour and beautifully presented. Every dish we tried was a hit! The staff were super friendly, welcoming, and professional, which made the experience even better. The ambience was spot on - stylish, comfortable, and perfect for a chill night out or a special occasion. Deffo recommend this place to anyone looking for quality food and great vibes. I’ll definitely be coming back!”

“One of my most favourite hotels in the whole of England! We make a pilgrimage to this hotel every year due to the most peaceful experience. One year we did the 3 days Christmas stay too! It’s just a beautiful 15th century oak panel building. The great dinning hall is out of this world, as is the service. If you want to feel like a king or queen head here! A fabulous weekend away, beautiful grounds to walk in. Can’t recommend enough.”

“Superb customer service, very friendly staff and one of the only places left that cooks food fresh! I would highly recommend to anyone that wants something fresh and affordable!”

“Hidden gem, nestled at the rear of an industrial estate. Offers incredible value for money on great tasting east asian cuisine. There was a 15 min wait time which was spent walking around the adjacent oriental food store. Highly recommend.”

“Lovely canal side pub. We moored up outside and came with our dogs. Tried the vegan pasty, chicken and bacon lasagna, ham, egg and chips and the beef burger. I was pleasantly surprised with the amount of vegetarian and vegan options! Such cute gardens and a beautiful view of the canal. Thank you!”

“Awesome food & delivered on time by a wonderful friendly guy! Chicken was fabulous and flavours were all amazing we throughly enjoyed it ! Will definitely order again Thank you x”

“Wow, what a lovely place!!! Delicious food and really cosy interior. Tomato soup was sooo good and pizza second to none. Pork belly ideal and Yorkshire pudding great. I would only made gravy a little less bitter but that was me. Great place!!!”

“i would like to praise Julie Whaley at Waitrose Towcester, she goes above and beyond to help anyone in the store and even more the community. She works hard to help support local groups and chairties. Thank you Julie.”

“Visited today for the first time, and used their take out menu. The 3 toasted ciabattas we had were amazing, with good quality sausages. Their service was great too. I will definitely go back.”

“Perfect evening dinner. Lovely staff who made sure we had a lovely evening and the food was incredible”

“Great takeaway experience! I picked up our order and it was ready quickly and piping hot, which I really appreciated. The curry was a bit spicier than I expected (even though I asked for medium), but still packed with flavour and very enjoyable. The naan bread was absolutely huge – a nice surprise! Staff were super friendly and efficient. Will definitely be back, just going for a milder option next time!”

“We had a really good Indian meal here, the food was spot on and it was really buzzing. Service could have been a little faster but that's a really minor issue as everything else was absolutely spot on. My mate is a local and he reckons it is the best around.”

“Had a top-notch weeknight dinner here with friends. Well worth the drive! Service was very attentive, the manager is super friendly and accommodating, the pub is cosy and we all thought the food was prepared beautifully. I recommend the steak w/ red wine jus and the berry crumble.”

“It’s such a nice place. The service was a bit cold but it’s still alright. But the kebabs…… THEY WERE SOOO GOOD. Highly recommended place.”

“1st time for a takeaway here,definitely will be ordering again, food arrived piping hot and was delicious,even my 13 who is fussy said it was the best takeaway he's had! Well done Midwest a definite thumbs up from us”

“Lovely and tasty food. Fresh chillies, not pickled! High end decor, the chefs take time over cooking your food and it was worth it. Nice atmosphere, unhurried and I felt relaxed while eating. My first trip and was very pleased. Will revisit.”

“We came to Mumtaz at Merlin’s for a friend’s birthday,.. the restaurant has a cosy authentic feel, the food was great and the staff were absolutely fantastic and very attentive ! I can’t wait to celebrate my birthday here soon .. highly recommended.”
