First time here, walked in and thought how pretty and welcoming the bar and restaurant looked. I attended with 2 friends and all went for the Turkey dinner. I have no ther words than SHOCKING! The dinner was served within 5 mins of ordering. The pigs in blankets looked like they had not seen the oven, the Yorkshire was so hard I could not get my teeth through and the whole dinner was stone cold. We did send back, but the second one although was hot was not much better, very dry tasting. I do not usually write reviews but I was so disappointed and have never tasted anything so awful. The waitress was polite and helpful but chef needs some serious training.

We booked a table here last minute after a stressful day following a family death. Found the staff to be very cheerful, friendly and helpful, and everyone though the food was delicious. It was just what we needed to lift our spirits, and would like to thank the whole team for their excellent service.

Packed eating area, so i expected that it must be popular for a dining experiance. While the place looked graet and the service was great, the food was below average compared to similar places. 1 meal was sent back as it was overcooked (burnt), roast potatoes and mash not seasoned, steak and ale pie had the smallest amount of filling i have seen in a long time. I have eaten better food for half the price in most local eateries. It is a shame that the food lets this place down on this day.

At first I was unsure of the booking system ( impersonal ) but all changed as we was greeted by Morgan and Karen showing us a lovely table, Morgan taking our drinks order then giving us time ordering our food not hurrying us at all. All our food came out together and hot, Morgan was attentive but not overpowering. The food was absolutely amazing as was the service we would all be returning again for sure if it means being greeted by Morgan and Karen which made our family dinner more enjoyable. Thank you for looking after us from the start to the end of our meal very much appreciated. Morgan and Karen Thank You 😊 😊😊😊

Went for a meal with friends, From the start, we felt welcomed by the lovely Sue. The atmosphere was cosy and cheerful. The food was also amazing. Different price ranges to suit all pockets and the variety of the menu was simple through to something different. We will be back and hope to be served by the lovely Sue again. She made the visit. So different to other pubs in the area.

Very disapointing. We had held a small function here in March '23 and on the sucess of that plan a repeat in March '24 so, knowing it had changed hands in the meantime, we booked a table for just ourselves to check it out. On arrival we found there was no reservation recorded even though it had been made several days earlier. However a table was available by the door into the kitchen. My wife chose two starters -Asparagas tartlet then Prawns with mixed veg. I chose baked camambert then Beef burgignon with chips. The asparagas tartlet was crisp and very dainty with a minimal amount of asparagas. The prawns were inedible having so much pepper in the sauce that my wife, who is normally happy with spicy, peppery food rejected it . We asked th waitress to inform the chef but there was no response from the kitchen. The waitress did offer to get her something else but there was nothing else on the menu that she wanted. The camambert was fine, being a good portion "Le Rustique" soft and runny and well within the sell by date printed on the case. My beef dish was not as flavoursome as I had expected of Burgignon The chips were nicely cloured but had an oily look and no crispness at all. I suspect they had come from the freezer via a dip in warm oil. I normally wolf down all the chips on the plate but a good half went back to the kitchen..We usually like to look at the desert menu but gave it a miss as we had no expectations. I went to the bar to pay. The barman asked if we had enjoyed the meal so I told him it was not to our taste as the prawns were inedible owing to the amount of pepper and that we had sent that message to the chef. He was happy to take the full amount from my credit card. Such a pity when we had had such a good experience here with Lucile in charge 9 months ago. We are still looking for a venue for our function next March.

I’m not the biggest fan of a Sunday roast, but I certainly am at The Royal Oak, it’s delicious! We visited for Mother’s Day and were made very welcome. Fantastic roast dinners and lots of options for the children too. Service great, as ever. Highly recommend.

I stumbled across the hidden gem whilst walking in Northamptonshire. Quite simply the best food and coffee I have ever tasted at any Cafe. The Chicken Club Baguette was off the scale. Beautifully presented, fresh and delicious 😋 Welcoming, friendly staff, attentive table service, relaxed and calm atmosphere, with views of the riding school and rolling countryside. Very reasonable prices. I fully recommend you give it a try - I know I will be returning very soon. You will not be disappointed 🙂
