Lovely evening meal with friends. All the dishes we had tasted delicious. I enjoyed the Brie & pancetta croquettes for starter. The venison dish for main was so tasty. A bit more side veg would have been nice. Finished off with a yummy sticky toffee pudding. Thank you

Being a local, two of us popped in on the off chance to eat on a Saturday afternoon. It's the first time we have eaten there. The pub itself is lovely and famed for its connections to Princess Diana and the Spencer family. It's very close to Althorp house. I had chicken supreme, which was quite nice, but the amount wasn't great. The other person I was with had fish and chips, the fish was fine but the chips were really bad. They were hard/overcooked or looked like they had been refried. We had soft drinks with it. I wouldn't recommend the food there based on my own experience for the price we paid. Sadly, we won't be eating there again to eat, but we will still visit during the summer months as it has two lovely outside areas with seating.

Been here for a pint and a bite to eat many times over the last 15 years. The pub is a lovely old country inn with tons of character and cosy nooks and crannies to sit in on a winters day or night. The staff are really friendly and helpful too. However, the food I got, whilst very nice was in the most ungenerous portions I have ever had in any pub. I opted for soup to start which was delicious, but in a very small bowl which itself was only filled with about one ladle measure of soup. The main course again was really good but served up in a really mean portion. I'm not a huge eater but come on Althorp coaching inn , be a little more generous with the food you serve ...

We both had the beef dish, and it certainly was divine. The meat was cooked to perfection. The whole plate was so tasty. Afterwards, we both had plum tart my god the lightest sponge iv ever had. All the dishes are cooked on the premises. Well done to all of you kitchen and serving staff .

I wish the food was better, it’s a nice little place with a fire, set in a lovely little Northamptonshire village. The food though leaves a lot to be desired unfortunately. It’s not the menu, that’s often quite good, just the quality of the food.

Unfortunately we now come to the but. It's really disappointing when the food fails to match an otherwise very pleasing standard. We had to return one of our meals because quality of the meat , likewise all of our other mains were underwhelming.

We’ve been here twice now in the space of a week and both times the food and service have been of a very high quality. The menu choice is excellent and offers a wide range of gluten free options which was welcomed by my wife. I couldn’t give it less than 5 stars, however I think there are a couple of things that could make it better still. The pizza options could be improved by an offering of build your own at a sensible price option. We have an 11 year old daughter who has almost outgrown the child’s menu and we’ve struggled to find good options for her. A simpler pizza option and perhaps a simplified burger option that isn’t laced with mustard would be most welcome for those seeking something simpler or for children who don’t yet have the taste buds for something a little more ‘fancy’. Overall though the food is excellent and we were well looked after in the bar and restaurant in our previous visit. Highly recommended!

This is a really lovely pub. We stayed overnight in our camper in the car park (by appointment). The food was excellent, the service was attentive but not obtrusive and the gorgeous olde worlde bar was very atmospheric. The menu is broad and varied, covering vegetarian and vegan requirements with thoughtful meals; the drinks list is also very comprehensive. Dogs are welcome, with water bowls and snacks provided in the bar. The pub is a very short walk from Althorp Hall, the home of Princess Diana, should anyone be interested. The countryside is lovely rolling farmland and woodland, with multiple footpaths heading off in all directions. We didn't see enough so we'll be going again to split a long journey from York to the South coast. Recommended in BritStops, a camper & motorhome app for overnight stopovers.

Try ACI or another venue … Delighted to have gone back to the ACI - it was great. Booking on line was easy, the people were very friendly and the food was plentiful and great. A cosy celebratory meal for five of us at practically no notice. We will doubtless be returning soon!

Offers a Korean style burger with kimchi . The batter on the burger was badly burned and a sliver of chicken remained ,. the kimchi was a carrot salad with raw onion . Very disappointing especially as prices are high. Response To the owner: I asked the waitress about the kimchi she said it was the Asian slaw which was also tasteless and the onion was too raw and overpowering, I am very familiar with kimchi I was not confused and it was not in the bun either. your waitress said she will inform the kitchen but she never acted on it.

Everything about this beautiful historic village pub ouses class. We visited for lunch yesterday and booked a table whilst sat outside in our car and were both fitted in immediately. On entry, it was evident just how homely and cozy this public house was with character in abundance, beams and old brickwork everywhere as well as a few well behaved dogs! The staff were very accommodating and quickly sat us taking our orders also in quick fashion. We both had mains only with a drink each, my wife had the fish and chips and I had the lamb shank, both were exceptionally tasty, my wife sliced me off a large piece of her cod which was better than any chip shop I had visited..... Perfect. My Lambshank was delicious 10/10, but the highlights of the pub were the staff. We were served by a very young lady who was superb, helpful and friendly and a huge asset to the pub. Everywhere, even the toilets, were so clean and tidy and full of character..... I have visited hundreds of Northamptonshire pubs and this tops the lot characterwise. A beautiful pub in a stunning village...... We will return. Visited 23rd March 2024

Over the week this grew to 20 plus guests, Jack and the team were unfazed and kept adding to the order and we all had a wonderful night, baked Camemberts, charcuterie boards, nibbles and amazing home cooked pizzas kept everyone fed and happy This is a gem of a pub that serves great food and has an attitude of what can we do to help make your day or night better rather than just say no. Well worth a visit, you will not be disappointed

Starters were lovely however one was forgotten, for mains we ordered the steak burgers which was the only nice main we recieved the other mains were the beef however staff didn't think to mention the beef was served rare but 2 of the dishes were pretty much still beating and cold 😅 aswell as we asked for a steak knife and was left waiting for about 10 minutes before we had to ask a second member of staff for it. We Ordered a side of pigs and blankets if you can even call them that it was 2 uncooked sausages on a plate of horseradish. And to top it all off a member of staff with blonde hair would not stop giving our table dirty looks which made us quite uncomfortable neither did she give out a daffodil to my mother which was made very clear that they were being given out to all mothers once paid 😠. Ridiculous!! However a staff member with dark hair working within the barn was very nice and helpful this was the only nice thing out of the experience. Found the whole meal quite disappointing which is sad as all I've heard is good reviews.

Such a lovely, warm and ambient setting especially with log fire blazing away. Our starters of soup and ham terrine with gluten free crosstini were delicious. Blade beef was divine, unfortunately the fish (and chips) was too oily for one of our liking. Both toffee pudding and pannacotta were a bit disappointing as they were either dry and on the bland side. Otherwise had a lovely evening.

Really want to give a 5 star as the lunch we had previously, was amazing and greatly bigged it up to friends. Our Friday night dinner with them though fell short. If I could offer advice instead of complaining? 1. Bring new cutlery after starters 2. If mains are delayed, offer a free round of drinks and bring bread or nibbles 3. If one person in the party isn’t having a starter, bring bread or nibbles, especially if mains are delayed 4. Updates on the food are always appreciated Food was great, once we got it. We will be back as we hope this was just a one off.

My visit to Althorp Coaching Inn was a delightful experience that combined charming surroundings, a welcoming atmosphere, and delicious cuisine. The inn's beautiful building exudes character, creating a cosy backdrop that enhances the overall dining ambience. The friendly atmosphere at Althorp Coaching Inn is truly noteworthy, making guests feel not just customers but welcomed visitors. The menu boasts an array of tempting options, and my choice of the Philly Steak was a culinary highlight. The pink bavette steak, sautéed peppers & onions, chilli, gratinated cheese, and paprika mayonnaise created a flavour symphony that left a lasting impression. While the food was undeniably delicious, there was a slight hiccup as both my meal and those of my associates arrived slightly colder than expected. Despite this, the overall experience was so enjoyable that we didn't feel compelled to raise the matter with the staff, especially considering time constraints. In the grand scheme, Althorp Coaching Inn successfully blends historic charm, friendly service, and tasty cuisine. It's a place where the warmth of the surroundings and the flavours on the plate combine for a memorable dining experience, even if the temperatures were a bit cooler than ideal.

I wouldn’t recommend this place. Although the staff are friendly and polite and the place/decor is cute and atmospheric, the food was disappointing. Considering the prices of this place, we were expecting the food to be lovely, however… the pie was dry, not a lot of meat, and had no taste/flavour and did not come with seasoned vegetables as the menu stated (just broccoli that’s it), and the Camembert did not come with grape chutney as the menu stated (a super sour cranberry sauce instead which wasn’t great). Also had to sit in my coat for the first hour as they must have thought 1 small log on a small log burner would heat up the entire restaurant and didn’t have any heating on? I would actually expect better food from a Greene king chain restaurant or something, very annoyed to have paid all this money for something bland and different to the menu!
