Social cafe in Northampton

“So I was passing through Rushden and wanted a full English breakfast. Well I am so glad I stumbled across this place. Robert and Kirstie run a wonderful cafe. They also do a fish Tuesday special. Great service, fantastic food and very fairly priced. Highly recommended. It is up Hamblin Court off the High Street. Give it a try!”

“Great place to go for a bike meet, always busy and the food is lush! However they have started to implement a members only thing and have clearly said its not a bike meet. So suggest signing up if you want to go regularly. It's around a fiver for the year.”

“Honestly there’s just one word for coco. Amazing. You step in and are greeted by the excellent crew and they make you feel welcome. I ordered the chicken and bacon sandwich and it’s the best spot for everything cafe in Northampton. I would highly recommend”

“Nice food, great customer service and very friendly atmosphere ☺️”

“If you are looking for a nice place to enjoy a drink, you can't go far wrong with this place. Plenty of outside seating, very friendly service and locals. Ticks a lot of boxes for me.”

“Never had a bad meal ... great value, yummy food and Harlow, outer GR always gets a sausage ... so lovely to have a dog friendly cafe close by x”

“What a fantastic venue. Great tasting food, Polite staff as well as bowling,darts and crazy golf. The interior is designed like an American street and looks very good. Only thing that I would advise is that it can be quite loud and if you have a child with autism ect I'd suggest ear defenders if they are triggered by loud noises. Can't wait to return for a third visit soon.”

“We have had the best time. And why do you ask? Because the service has been top notch. If you want a boozy brunch where you drinks are served frequently and endlessly, The Mail Coach is the place to be. The food was great. We all ordered burgers!! The drinks ❤️❤️❤️ amazing!!!! Thank you. We’ll be back!!”

“Fantastic private venue for our sports club end of season awards. The team were really helpful in organising the event beforehand with communicating the options and plan. Then on the night superb service and food and very helpful staff, we thoroughly enjoyed our evening and are delighted to have found Brooklyn Social as a venue!! Thank you team!”

“What a saviour, open on a Sunday. Friendly service with a smile. Many thanks”

“We ordered our breakfast through the JustEat app and New Corby Cafe delivered, they made sure they gave us not only everything but kept everything hot, I liked the individual sections meaning I could assemble them on my plate when I got home. Including the eggs, which were very fresh and well-seasoned. We loved it and if we're ever in need of a good English fry up, this is the place.”

“Very friendly . Atmosphere very relax and calm. It's a tea and coffee plus cake. Very yummy cake not to sweets”

“after living here for 2 years i can honestly say that we had a wonderful experience renting from richard. if we had any issues he was very quick to resolve them and provided ample time for letting us know when anything would be being done to the house. as students we were very cautious with things surrounding renting property and such but richard eased these worries and looked out for us while we were under his lease. the house its self is amazing, it felt more like a home than student accomodation which i think lead the group we were with becoming closer and gave us a more chilled out atmosphere. the property is good all year round however in the summer was where it really shined with ample space for our group to spend time together while also being close to large parks for activities. overall i think myself and the rest of our group had a great time living hear and i hope that i can find a place in the future that can feel just as homely. :)”

“Nice pint and friendly to kids. Always have stuff going on. Would definatly recommend the beer festival where their is a wide veriaty of beers and ciders. Happy drinking!”

“Fantastic little community / local pub. Friendly customers, lovely staff. Recommended.”

“I recently visited this hidden gem of a vegan cafe located on a boat near the skate park, and it was an absolute delight. Despite not knowing about its existence until a friend's recommendation, I'm so glad I discovered it. The entire menu is vegan-friendly, catering perfectly to our party's dietary preferences. The service was exceptional; the lady serving us was incredibly polite and friendly, making our first visit feel warm and welcoming. We appreciated how accommodating they were to our requests, happily making changes to our orders without any fuss. Even when they ran out of nuggets, they went above and beyond by deducting it from the bill, a gesture that truly impressed us. The food arrived promptly and exceeded our expectations in taste and presentation. The atmosphere was cozy and inviting, adding to the overall wonderful experience. Despite being initially quiet, the cafe gradually filled up, creating a lively ambiance. Overall, it was a memorable dining experience that left us all thoroughly satisfied and eager to return.”

“Visited for the first time this Sunday afternoon after having spied the Lilacs whilst out for a walk a couple of weeks previously. What a lovely place, a bit TARDIS like, it's bigger on the inside than it looks this is a really nice pub, with a big open airy restaurant and multiple outside spaces. The Sunday menu is good, not a wide selection, but everything on the menu appears to be well balanced and from our experience is done well. We had starters, carvery and dessert and all were lovely. The carvery was one of the best I've had, veg wasn't overcooked or dried out from being sat on the hot plate too long, the meat was juicy, tender and cooked nicely and the cauliflower cheese I could have eaten by the gallon. A delightful selection of desserts were on display in the cabinet, and the chocolate and cheesy mousse dessert I selected was beautiful, a rich deep flavour whilst still being light enough after a big meal. Topped it all off with a latte with Bailey's in and I was a happy man. The staff were all really friendly, and very attentive and helpful, service was quick and came with smiles and personality. We're already looking at when we can return to try the regular evening menu and another of the cakes from the cabinet.”

“Great little proper pub that has thankfully stood the test of time. Not changed since I last visited 20 years ago and that is a highly positive thing. Good prices for great beers. Since returned 3 times in past 2 months. Why did I wait so long???!!! More fool me...”

“Been here several times. Tonight we were served by the phenomenal Denisa. She was brilliant! Polite, attentive, good sense of humour and professional! The food as always beautifully presented and absolutely yummy. We brought our friends with us tonight and we were not disappointed! Everyone left happy and full.”

“A great place to come and try what's available in the world of beer. An excellent range if craft beers bottled, canned or on draught. The selection on offer is well thought out, offering a range across the varieties. From Spurs to DIPAs to shouts and everything in between. There are spirits and cocktails on offer for those not keen on beer, and nibbles are available for the peckish. The decor is clean and welcoming. With nice little touches with the lighting etc. Would highly recommend for the knowledgeable friendly staff, and the amazing range to go at. Worth several visits to make your way through them all.”

“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.”

“Excellent fish restaurant in Hitchin. All dishes ordered on our table were really good. Also does meat and veggie options. Hake is recommended. Good service and atmosphere. Mains around £20 and worth it. Parking available within short distance.”

“Nice little pub, walked in and was surprised at the selection of unusual beers on offer as I always like to try something new and normally disappointed but not at the lamplighter. Nice ambience in the bar and the barman was very helpful and polite. Good choice of beers. Would definitely come back!”

“Went for the first time with friends was nice and cool inside lots to see in the walls. We had some drinks and then played darts great time. Be back again soon. Good times”

“Cool little local pub in the heart of the country, Staff were really friendly as were all the locals and the food (although I didn't have any) looked really good. They had a decent sized back garden and seemed like a meeting place for all of the local villagers but I didn't feel out of place or like an outsider, of your in the vicinity it's well worth popping in for a drink or a bite to eat, will deffo stop by if in the area, they do take card payments but prefer cash ❤️”

“Top tier staff. My wife and I left with a smile on our faces. We were well taken care of.”

“Can get very busy at the weekend. Check the facebook page for different themed events. Saturday 10-2pm typically is Pokémon time, where an army of kids trade and buy cards. They have a good selection of drinks and custom milkshakes. Aswell as food menu items. Good for kids and adults of all ages. Ps: they also have a free board game area with a wide selection of board games to play for free. (But also buy).”

“Great food, great staff, good beer and a great friendly atmosphere.”

“The décor is refreshing, modern, the coffee is superior to the standard high street chains, the staff extremely friendly and welcoming! A bit unusual to have it closed at weekends, but there must be a reason!”
