This has been a popular pub in higham ferrers for as long as I can remember. Good mix of space with a pool table upstairs, darts, plenty of TV screens for football. Often busy, pretty good parking. Great big garden which is great in the summer. Regular events in which is nice. Beer selection is a bit lousy with mostly lager and cider. Not great for proper beers but still worth a visit.

The hotel is a lovely, great setting with its beautiful gardens and grounds. There is plenty of space for people to enjoy a days wedding, especially on the lawns. Staff are friendly and polite, they are very helpful where they can be. Rooms could be improved with facilities that they provide in them. Breakfast is good at what they offer food wise, but the short hours the dining room is open are terrible, with everyone trying to get breakfast at the same time. Maybe a consideration of opening it 1/2hr early for people with young families who have to be awake early with youngsters wanting food. Bar is standard for price if drinks for a venue like this, you're always going to play a little more than you would in your local. Please change your in-house DJ. Its terrible, he can't mix songs and loops them and doesn't interact with the guest, and their request

Basic room, but clean and sufficient to lay your head. Linda and staff made us feel like locals! Very welcoming and super customer service, room wasn’t ready so she gave us a discount voluntarily!which was so lovely , busy pub full of well behaved young people having fun…… but by midnight not a sound . We are hoping to stay agsin for the famous beer festival later this year, Kate and Brian Thomson 23/5/23

Ordered over an hour ago and been told we have another hour to wait. This was always our go to place but will caution anyone from ordering as all they were interested in was cancelling out order even though it has paid for ???? No idea why it has deteriorated so much that they no longer value their regular customers. I will not order from here again. Anyone ordering from here unless you order at least two hours prior and get food that was cooked a long time beforehand please be careful.

We went to the Axe and Compass on Friday the 28th of February. The pub was busy but not over crowded. As I was driving I tried the Thatcher's Zero alcohol cider And found it to be very good. There were a selection of crusty roll sandwiches available and they were excellent. The pub is divided into two halves and in the other half a band was playing. The band room was great with a stage a couple of feet high so every one could see. All in all a brilliant Friday night out, in a highly recommended pub.
