Great Sunday roast, nothing fancy just good wholesome, well cooked food with generous portions of meat and veg, what more is wanted? If you're lucky to have Lauro serving you then he'll look after you and show what many establishments miss with amazing service and efficiency.

Went here for lunch and my chicken was nice don’t ask for a steak though as the chief had three attempts at a medium rare and still couldn’t get it right felt so sorry for the waiter who was clearly embarrassed that the chief couldn’t cook he couldn’t apologise enough

Stayed at the Premier Inn next door for 2 nights. Had breakfast both days. Mark the host/waiter was first class. He was very welcoming and efficient taking orders. Despite a full restaurant he was super organised and handled it in an exemplary way. I travel the UK a lot and use many different Premier Inns. This is not always the case, so hats off to him for a great service. The food arrived quickly, cooked to order as requested. This Premier Inn and restaurant next door is *highly recommended*

Went out for a family birthday meal. Big disappointment, service super slow with no communication as to why we had to wait so long for food. We also observed one of the staff behind the food counter picking chips up with his fingers moving them on to other plates!

Hard review as unsure 5 or 4 star, but to be fair, the food was on the whole excellent. Why thought drop a star... schnitzel said, served with rocket, but came with iceberg lettuce. Beans in kids meal had no sauce and lookd withered. Dad's meal came with chips, not crushed potatoes. Schnitzel had nongrated parmesan. Why 5 star. Best halloumi fries tasted. Best pizza cheesy garlic bread ever tasted. Food of high standard that was cooked. Service was definitely 5 star. Now to squeeze in a desert

Very disappointed with the mother day offer. We were booked in at 4 pm with my son, daughter in law and their two young children. We ordered garlic flatbreads for starters and it came out at 5 pm - except it was a slice of bloomer bread - we literally waited an hour for a slice of bread!!!! The main meals came out an hour later and the children were restless and starving. Absolutely awful. I felt sorry for the waitresses who were embarrassed. We didn’t wait for our desserts and to be honest no-one came to ask if we wanted any. Probably the worst meal ever, hugely disappointed

Don't bother. Clearly can't handle busy days. Waited forever for food. Our garlic flatbread starter came out as a slice of bread with garlic butter on it. They had clearly ran out of some food but did not communicate this and just gave out poor replacements and expected to charge original prices. Won't go back.

Lunchtime birthday treat - we all ordered from the main menu (confirmed by server when ordering) I had the smothered chicken melt @ £15.49 but it was more like a covered budgie! Such a tiny portion of chicken. I think my plate must have been mixed up with the neighbouring table who had ordered the same but from the light lunch menu @ £7.99 - theirs appeared much larger than what I had been served :( Was so disappointed as I left still feeling hungry! Should have queried and complained but as it was a 91st birthday celebration I did not want to make a fuss and spoil the day. Not sure I will rush back for another meal and if I do I'll certainly be complaining if not acceptable!

Booked a table for 12, and after we had ordered, they told us they had supply issues . The meals all looked like they had been made smaller, yet they still charged full price when they shouldn't even be doing food if they can't supply the correct meals. Over £300 spent when it was only worth half that amount.

Went here tonight with my family, my mum is gluten intolerant severely. When ordering we made absolute sure that the waitress was aware that gluten is an absolute no for my mums meal. We were all served pretty quick however, missing sauces and general presentation wasn’t great. After eating out main meal, my mum was double checking what she had eaten on the menu vs what she had just eaten. There was a sausage included in her meal that wasn’t on the menu. The sheer panic and upset caused by this as usually most sausages contain gluten, I spoke to the waitress where she said she would go and ask the chef. We were sat not far from the kitchen and saw that the chef went into absolute panic when asked if the sausages were GF. They found the packet for the sausages and LUCKILY they were GF but, this goes to Show that the staff are NOT trained properly on allergens. Would not recommend for people with allergens atall.

We booked a table for seven, (3 children) on 27/12/24. No pancakes, one crumpet, no berries, no muffins. A very disappointing visit for the children. On the positive side the waiter, Jonathan, was incredible. He was greeting people, taking orders, delivering orders, filling up the buffet and clearing tables, whilst still being cheerful. Only one member of staff doing this was unfair to him. Large parties having booked in with families made his job even harder. We have been in other Beefeaters for breakfast with more staff on, fewer patrons and tables still left dirty. Jonathan deserves a raise or a bonus.

Waiting time was dire, food quality was substandard. I have eaten at Beefeater in Worksop many times with absolutely no issues. This was my first and last visit to Northampton Beefeater, I only went there because I live in Wellingborough and we don’t have one anymore. Just very very poor.

Arrived to be told limited menu due to a flood in the warehouse , when we seen the menu they seemed to have all the more expensive items?! Ordered a fillet steak and mixed grill , fillet steak was tough and more rare than medium , mixed grill had 2 eggs one of them you wouldn’t of served as broken so asked for another one , which they did , the triple cooked chips where not the usual ones , a cheaper version, food wasn’t particularly hot , order 2 mint sundaes , which were ok however the chocolate sauce was caramel sauce! When we queried this, waitress said yes we have ran out! What a shambles in the run up to Christmas , won’t bother again , waste of time and money .

Beefeater are having supply issues with food. We were given an extremely reduced menu with less than a quarter of the usual items actually available. The extremely young staff didn't seem to care. It was a take it or leave it attitude. They gave us some mumbled excuse about a gas issue at the warehouse causing the problems. Quite honestly they didn't seem to believe it either. I am concerned that I have Christmas Day Lunch booked with them and there may not be any food available by then. Not recommended until they get themselves sorted out.

The place was busy and the staff were having to work under difficult conditions. Unfortunately, the restaurant had been flooded just a couple of days before our visit so a large portion of the restaurant was taped off. Despite the circumstances, the staff did a good job of providing an efficient service and all that I came across, did their upmost to provide a friendly service and welcoming atmosphere. The standard of food wasn't effected by the difficult working conditions. Four of us all thoroughly enjoyed our 'cooked to perfection' meals and our evening at The Turnpike! Thank you to the manager and staff that made this possible and shame on those customers that moaned and complained about things that were out of the manager's control. He and his staff did everything they could to provide a decent experience but regardless of how well they do their part, they can not control the weather! Maybe some people should show more empathy and be grateful the manager had bothered to open and provide meals/drinks etc for the many that chose to eat there. Well done guys. I hope things improve for you very soon!!

Part of our order was wrong, their solution was to try and cut corners to rectify the issue, which did eventually happen, the portion sizes for the the prices were in my opinion rediculous. My meal ( picture attached ) was £17.50! The only upside was that the onion rings as a side were brilliant. Not sure it’s right to pay £70 for a meal for myself and partner, to still leave hungry. Will be avoiding beefeaters for a while now

A very nice welcome, we hadn't booked, but they weren't busy so we were seated quickly. Drinks were ordered and soon arrived and starters and mains ordered. Hubby had the mushrooms to start and I had prawn cocktail, his was fine but my prawn cocktail was three quarters salad, our server said it was the new normal, nothing to be done about it! However the small amount of prawns and tiny bread tasted ok. On a more positive note our mains were really good, hubby had the chicken and rib combo and I went for rib eye steak which was the best steak I've eaten in years, so on the whole a nice meal.😀

Had breakfast here after staying at The Premier Inn. One of us had a full English breakfast and one the Continental, both of which were very good. But the best part was the service. A guy called Marc served us. He greeted us at the start, explained everything, and served us. He was absolutely run off of his feet as it was so busy, but nothing was too much trouble and he was so cheerful too! He was very helpful. I was stuck at the coffee machine and he noticed and helped even though he was so busy. He was the only person serving and no one had to wait for anything and the tables were kept clean and tidy. What a credit to company! Excellent!

We got our drinks then our food when we told a manager we were leaving as it was inedible he was nice and said don’t pay for your drinks and I don’t know what has happened it was fine earlier, it was only 3pm ?!!!!!! as we left he went and told another member of staff who didn’t care she just shrugged her shoulders.

Fabulous pub with amazing accomodation. We stayed for only one night as we were attending a wedding at Crockwell Farm. We arrived early and Nathan was very accommodating for early check in. We were hoping to book a taxi from the pub to the venue, but unfortunately the taxis were only available from Banbury, and so Ben the barman offered to give us a lift and was very polite and courteous. We were unable to try the breakfast as we had to leave early for work the next morning.

I rarely give a bad review but really, this place should probably just give up and shut down. Massively over priced for portion size and quality, seemed very surprised to have our one table of 4 arrive on a Friday night, had to clarify drinks order and errors on food order with some vague excuse about the chef getting confused but served it anyway. Faulty Towers II. Food quite bland and basic compared to expectations from menu description and price. Only positive was the Asian chap who turned up after we'd ordered and tried his best. And even for other staff, not their fault. Lack of management and training and it appears, customers. Nearly £70 for 3 adults and one child burger and kids treat a complete let down.
