Beer Guerrilla in Northampton

Friendly and knowledgeable staff with lots of great beers❤🍺 And now they have great coffee,smoothies and milkshakes along with some awesome food for meat eaters and vegetarians alike 😋 🍻

Back today after long absence living with a vulnerable person as defined by Covid. Really well Covid organised and excellent beers as usual. I've really missed it. Still the top Craft beer place to go in Northampton... with a new sign 😁

TLDR - rude staff. Won't be back. I write this somewhat reluctantly, and held off a week doing so - it is a considered reflection. The food in Beer Guerrilla is fantastic. The pizzas are second to none in Northampton, and they're reasonably priced. The beer is incredible - keg & cask changes frequently for the explorative, enthusiast types. If you find something you like, you can keep buying it in cans. I have lived in Northampton for about four years and, as someone who loves craft beer and IPA, it was a great find. The service is another story. Two of the three owners/partners in the business are incredibly awkward and difficult to deal with. I don't think they realise how poorly they come across. Almost everyone I have brought to BG (colleagues, friends, family visiting N'ton) has remarked on it. The response - every time - to asking to try (half a shot glass) of a beer before committing to a circa £10 pint is uncomfortable and embarrassing. I'd understand if I wanted to try every beer, every time. But I've only ever asked to try one or two. Last week I was in to catch the end of a football game - I had my dog with me, he's friendly & dosile. Most of the handful of people in the bar had approached him to stroke/fuss over him as I was ordering my drink. Once sat, two or so people had gone to the toilet over a 15 min period, and I'd told them to push past the dog which they had done, also whilst stroking him and smiling. I was subsequently asked by one of the owners to move him out of the way "because he was making people feel uncomfortable". I was sat on my own, in the corner. Nobody was uncomfortable. Having a preference about where dogs stand or lie is totally fine - tell me it's your preference, as the manager. Don't blame it on one of half a dozen customers who - to a normal person - were clearly, worst case, absolutely fine and best case, loved the dog. I was prepared to overlook the generally rude and abrasive approach, but I'll take my business elsewhere - thanks.

I love this place and always try to pop here whenever I visit Northampton. They have a great selection of craft beers. Friendly and knowledgeable staff. They also do great pizzas as well as a large range of other drinks and coffees - what’s not to like?

Nice pizza and brewed on site beer.

My favourite bar in Northampton, seemingly have great drinks on tap but only get the bottled cider so not too certain, pizzas are also great.

Great beer. Great pizza. Great music. Great staff

Excellent selection of beers and always a great service.

Tried coffee and I loved it.. 😍😍

A great beer selection. Perhaps the best bar on the Wellingborough Road. Well recommended.

Awesome taproom and bottle shop, 8 beers on tap and 3/4 fridges full of beers and ciders. They make some nice pizza's onsite. Friendly staff, not to expensive

If you’re a beer nut this is the place to be. Try the sour, best I’ve ever had

A great selection of beers, excellent and friendly staff that can recommend and advise on your beer choice. Coffee is also available. Highly recommended for a gift whether that be for someone else, or a treat for yourself or popping in for a beer or coffee.

I decided to pop in for a coffee today as I seen a sign for Yellow Bourbon Coffee. I had a Chai Latte and my mum had a Cappuccino, both absolutely delicious! The shop is full of character and very clean. I look forward to trying their pizzas next. If you you’re ever a long the welly road and fancy good craft beer, Pizza, Coffee or cocktails ect look no further than beer guerrilla!

I absolutely love Beer Guerilla. There's a huge range of beers wines and ciders and the pizzas are amazing too.

Recently had our engagement party at Beer Guerrilla and we couldn’t of asked for better hosts. All the team are welcoming and efficient. Pizzas were great 🍕 and they made the whole day easy for us to just enjoy being with our friends, can’t recommend them enough for private hire!

Awesome place. Fantastic selection of drinks and a really friendly atmosphere

Fantastic independent beer shop and bar. Very knowledgeable and friendly staff. Fantastic range of different beers- there really is something for everyone. Also very tasty cocktails for the non beer drinkers. I have attended several events here also such as beer school and Belgium beer tasting and both of these were very enjoyable and educational

Great service, lovely staff, and really tasty chai latte.

I alway get overwhelmed by all the choice (it's great to have so many options!). The wonderful staff are always happy to help with great recommendations, which always comes in handy for my very particular partner!

Popped in for coffee and wish I could have stayed for the awesome-looking beers and pizza. Feels like my kind of place.

Great place to get hard to find IPAs, on tap and in cans. The guys working there are awesome.

A great independent local business with a nice intimate setting and a great choice of beers. I only went for a drink but I saw some of their pizza being served which looked delicious. I'll definitely be back.

What a little gem of a place Great atmosphere, with the friendliest people serving.

Second time I went, yesterday and loved the beer I tried, again. Strawberry sundae sour was very special. Awesome selection of beers and other alcohol. Prices are just right as you get what you pay for and it's all been quality. The cans I've taken home on the first occasion were a real treat. Would go more if I could. Has a very cosy feel, good atmosphere and music was good. It is small and I like that. It means everyone can have interaction if they want it, like pubs used to be. Was friendly and I did see two dogs in there that were very well behaved. We'll take ours next time. Staff are very knowledgeable, as you'd expect from a diamond place like this. Go. Go now.

A little place to have a beer and friendly chat. Fab guys that run the place.

Amazing beers. Great place! Best in Northampton for craftys without a shadow of a doubt

Huge variety of craft beers, draught and cans/bottles. Pizza available on Thursday/Friday/Saturday, tasty but very tiny.

Favourite local taproom. Good range of beers on tap and in the fridges, as well as other alcoholic and soft drinks. The new added pizzas are a great addition and tasted fantastic!

Great beer and great atmosphere and service

Went with my Dad who is disabled. Excellent and respectful service from the bar staff, good disabled access, friendly welcome and a truly brilliant selection of ales.

Excellent tap selection, great fridge and superb staff. A beer nerd paradise

Delicious interesting beers available on tap for a cosy bottle shop. A great range also available in the fridges. Would have liked to see some cask beers available though.

This was the best stop we made in Northampton. Such a good selection it almost got me drinking again.

Friendly place, wide choice of beers. Relaxed and quiet. Has a dart board in the back.

Intimate setting to enjoy a whole range of superb beers. Several cask lines and a wide range of cans and bottles. They stock a wide range of Polly's and Deya and there is something for everyone on the shelves.

Great selection of beer/IPA. Top bloke behind the bar too!!

Great Little bar/bottle shop had a decent selection of Gluten Free beers for me.

The best craft beer bar in the Midlands. Simple as that.

If you like craft beers, you will love it here. Very quirky place, but a large selection of drinks. Lovely friendly atmosphere. Well worth a visit. They also do takeaways if you prefer drinking at home.

The best place for craft beer in the Midlands. Friendly, attentive staff. Always a good choice of amazing beer.

Really friendly and knowledgeable staff, by far the best selection and variety of local/craft beers that I've found in Northampton. Their growlers seem like a really good deal as well.

Always a great selection of beer. Staff are top notch, atmosphere is great. It's a Northampton treasure. Offer local and national delivery. I ordered my beer last night and it arrived less than 12 hours later (local delivery). Still dream about Festival Cry-teria, so tasty.

Made my first order from Beer Guerilla yesterday, and my order arrived this morning! Website is easy to navigate. The selection of great craft beer is top notch. Delivery arrived safely and the beer was well packaged. Even had some pork scratchings chucked in. Excellent service and will definitely be ordering again. Cheers to Matt for being in touch as well 👍🏻

Great place to buy craft ales. Friendly staff and a welcoming, well-stocked shop also offering draft ales.

Awesome place, awesome beer and the staff are awesome too

Lovely place, great Beers and atmosphere.

Great place for a beer, plenty of other drinks to choose from too, and they've expanded slightly to be able to take in more people.

A truly delightful hidden gem, a revelation and a great selection of Beers 😃👍🍻

Great beers.....friendly service!

Friendly staff. Good selection of beer on tap and in bottles/cans. The go-to place in Northampton for anyone serious about their beer.

Amazing selection, knowledge of all aspects of beer, stout, porters and ciders of all types will direct you to other retails if needed and great staff who will go above and beyond to help you.

One of the very few places in Northampton to get craft beer on tap. Friendly and helpful staff.

Worth a visit to see what guest beers are on tap

Excellent venue. Top staff, great selection and a cosy atmosphere.

A basically furnished beer house with very good range of interesting beers, well worth a visit (my second). Try some of the canned beers not available elsewhere. Good opportunity to split brews with friend or friends. A 5 star pleasure without taking overmuch alcohol!

Good beer selection but can be pricey staff very friendly and helpful

Fantastic beer selection and a lovely laid-back place for a drink.

When it first opened it was a shop selling beer where you could taste the wares. Now its more of a venue to go and taste the beers. It has a rather cool vibe for it. Good place to meet before going on to more traditional pubs...

Great place to relax with friends, chat and of course drink!

Love this place, they've got some really good beers on tap and a good selection of cans/growlers to take home. It can be expensive for a single visit but the more you go the cheaper it gets. A fantastic local business that should be supported.

Good place for beer lovers. Even the toilets are beer kegs. Nice.

I myself do not visit here but my parents do and I go along with them, my father says the beer there is lovely and personally I like the old playstation.

Love this place, great beer and lots of choice, great staff.

Great place if you like to try new beers and ales.

Great selection of beer, friendly staff, not a big tap but it always has nice stuff.

Great atmosphere and staff, amazing choice of beers whilst also maintaining a wine and gin list that would make many places jealous. Great place to chill or to buy a great gift for the beer drinker in your life! 😀😀🍻🍻

Great little place. Interesting beer selection

Great little bottle shop/tap room situated on Wellingborough rd. Fantastic atmosphere very friendly, knowledgeable staff and of course that AMAZING range of craft beers on offer! Thoroughly recommended!!

It's OK+ Limited range of beer. But it is close, and convenient.

Great Wines , Friendly Staff , Friendly Owner , Good Variety off Beers and Bar Snacks

Great choice, reasonable prices, good atmosphere 😁

Love this place. Great beers, great staff and lovely atmosphere

Lovely place, good beer and great atmosphere, very knowledgeable staff

Something different. And as previous people have said you for what you want. Great little place

Amazing choice of beers. Superb

Excellent beer selection. Growlers filled. Nice bar snacks too. Very friendly service. Nice Gins too.

Who's place with smashing very friendly staff and all different types beer you could dream of

Fantastic little bar/tap room. Great selection on draft, 6 taps of craft, always a couple of local ciders on. If you don’t fancy anything draft, there’s a massive selection in the fridges. Great friendly bar that’s well worth s visit.

I'm from Scotland and like craft beer the shop is small/ quant very. Nice beers

Absolutely amazing place. Full with load of amazing looking beer. Will hopefully going back again for a visit soon. Among other had to get a bottle of Broken Dreams as it was voted a the best beer at the Great British Beer festival this year.

First time here, will make sure I come back. Nice environment and a crazy range of beers. A bit of a niche place, I hope it keeps going well

We love this new place in Northampton. It's different, it's modern, it's welcoming, it's creative and it has a really nice atmosphere.

Great little shop selling a huge range of craft beer, including lots of locally brewed beers

This place is great. Awesome selection of beers.

Good selection of craft beer and cider to drink in or takeaway. Rustic vibe. Dogs allowed.

Love this place! Quirky, great atmosphere, superb range of beers and cider.

Great place to drink - loads of different beers - well worth a stop

Great little micro pub. Friendly crowd and a good selection of craft ales. A little expensive but worth a visit to sample one or two delights. Knowledgeable staff

Friendly Folk. Very decent bottle selection. Ever changing taps. Dog friendly. Loyalty points too. Just needs a shuttle bus to the station 🤣🤣

Great place to enjoy a great selection of craft ales on draught as well in cans and bottles. This bar/tap house has a great atmosphere and very friendly and knowledgeable staff.

I am giving them 5 stars despite the fact that I myself don't drink beer! Because they don't just do beer, (although the beer they do is extensive and constantly evolving!) No, they get 5 stars from me for their great selection of interesting spirits and friendliness!

Incredible selection of beers, very friendly, helpful and knowledgeable staff.

Great selection of beers. Really informative staff who know their stuff, and beer

I might decide to live here one day

With it's many selection of unique beers available, Beer Guerrilla is the place to go for an experience totally different and above your normal 'run of the mill' bars.

Staff are friendly, the shop is clean and welcoming. They offer a good variety of craft beers, both refrigerated, or shelved around the shop, plus they have half a dozen or so beers on tap. So you can have a draught half or whatever whilst you browse their stock. They're always happy to help and provide tips on what to try. The parking outside can be hit and miss. But otherwise this is a welcome addition to Northampton and the best place (perhaps the only place) to visit to stock up on a variety of decent craft beers.

Friendly with a great selection always on

Good beer, great atmosphere, and don't forget to take a growler home!

Great selection of beers and a few ciders. Great that you can drink in or take away. One of our favourite places for a drink. Staff are really good at recommending new things to.
