Lumbertubs in Northampton

Lovely pub. Had gluten free options, could have used some more. Good service. Nice staff, very helpful. Great prices, 30 quid to feed 5 (2 adult children) Then 20 for dessert

When my and family arrived we was greeted by Gemma who clearly hates her job and her life. She was rude and dismissive made us feel very unwelcome and gave off a bad energy. Felt like she was gunning for me from the start I clearly am old enough To drink yet refused me my wine when I had a picture ID and my children in my arms. She is nothing but a Karen and a miserable middle aged women who clearly needs to go customer service course or get a job at maccies if they would even take her. Thankyou Gemma for ruining my day and my lumber-tubs experience .

Glasses were dirty even after dishwashing.

We went early in the afternoon so it wasn't too busy in there. Being a dedicated driver is expensive in there. Buying a soda and lime in there was close to £2. Most places offer that for free or very cheap. The staff were nice and polite. The table and menus were sticky.

We like this pub, they do good quality food reasonably priced. The new outdoor seating area is great.

Nice family food and polite servers

Good food great service staff helpful and friendly.place is quite comfortable with a nice atmosphere.well catered for disabled people with parking and access.

Really good meal.Took advantage of the 2 mains for £12.99.very impressed.will probably make it a weekly occurrence.thankyou

Came in without a booking, but no problem for the colleagues at Lumbertubs. 4 adults and 1 highchair. Staff were brilliant, accommodating us happily. Food was superb and plentiful and hot, desserts were to die for 😛😛. You HAVE to try the Epic Chocolate Sundae it is just perfect. Very decent prices and great quality, the steaks cooked to perfection. Greene King have a terrific pub here, and we'll definitely be back again.

Another long trip today through heavy rain and opted to eat at Lumbertub’s. On arrival, although we hadn’t booked ( and it was a busy Friday night) we were found a table very quickly. Order made and found arrived in excellent time. Three adults and a 6 year old-excellent value, I couldn’t believe how reasonable our meal and drinks was, lunch of sandwiches and drinks was double this in London today. A great end to a great day. Our food was “ top notch “.

I recently had the misfortune of visiting this pub after making a reservation 12 hours in advance. Despite our booking being accepted, the entire experience left a bitter taste in our mouths. Upon arrival, the staff seemed disinterested and annoyed that we were there. No warm welcome, just a cold and indifferent attitude. When we finally managed to track down a member of the bar staff, we were curtly informed of our seat number and left to find it ourselves. Not exactly the customer service you'd expect. To make matters worse, despite specifically booking a table for food and receiving confirmation, we were informed that the kitchen was inexplicably closed when we sat down. It's mind-boggling how a pub can accept a reservation for a dining table and then casually inform guests that they won't be serving food. The lack of communication and professionalism demonstrated by the staff is truly disappointing. It's evident that the management of this establishment needs to address serious issues with customer service and organizational skills. Save yourself the frustration and disappointment – I would strongly advise against wasting your time and money at this poorly managed pub. There are plenty of other establishments in the area that value their customers and know how to run a business effectively.

Good cheap place to eat. Food could be better, just fried stuff but you get what you pay for. The building needs a few repairs. Staff are always excellent,

Absolutely useless bar staff. Empty pub and 40 minutes to receive drinks from app ordering. Asked the bar staff if they’d received our order. He looked at the receipt and said yes.. another 15 minutes pass and we eventually get half our order. Lack luster is an understatement. Save yourself the hassle and go somewhere else

Ordered low & slow beef rib skillet. 7 hr slow cook. This was a mess so much fat that there was 2oz of meat . The were cold chips over cooked peas like bullets. My son had burger yuk grandadson steak which was ok again peas like bullet s. Nobody ask if everything was OK.

The waffle fries are to die for and come quickly but the service doesn't come with a smile and staff at the bar are grumpy. Toilets reek and need more cleaning 🧼🧹☹️😡😡

Always had a pretty calm time here at Lumbertubs. People are easy going and space is plentiful both indoors and out Haven't tried the food so I cant make a judgement there however the atmosphere is nice for both family, solitary or with friends/partner

Shocking. Depressing place. Depressed, miserable staff. The food was vile. Roast chicken. Half a chicken which looked anaemic and dry as a bone, together with awful frozen veg. I think a good vet could have brought the chicken back to life. Gravy was thick, glutinous and jellified. My dog wouldn’t go within 2 feet of it. The vision of that chicken will stay with me.

Was down in Northampton seeing me family and we deiced to come down their for food, we came on Friday 26th jan 2024 and had such a good time. Food was nice and hot and came out quickly all the staff their was friendly and helpful

Didn't eat,just met friends for a coffee.

Visited twice this month, on both occasions, we found dirty tables with plates and empty glasses. Some of the staff looked tired and uninterested. Children running around in the bar area, doubt we will return

Thank you for a wonderful christmas day,family loved it with great dinner and awesome attentive staff

Started off poorly, sadly coke machine had given up the ghost and bar staff was not having a good day, felt a bit like unwanted guests. However, we completed our food order from the Christmas menu, sounded delicious Camembert burger and it did not disappoint. It was great, looked like the picture, full of flavour, served by friendly staff and arrived quickly, nice and hot, loaded fries were amazing, thank you so much for a lovely lunch out.

I don't go in this pub very often but one thing has not changed. The gents toilet cubicles I think one the lock doesn't work..Also pool.of water or urine on floor and the paint hadn't been done STILL. Why can't pubs spend some money on basic things like toilets? Food was OK although our organiser booked in advance and then was told they hadn't got the desserts we ordered Staff were fine

Generally a draining experience, sticky tables, lukewarm food, and the staff giving the impression that this was the norm.

We were very well looked after at the Lumbertubs Pub. Gemma did an amazing job and made us welcome at the pub.

The restaurant offered a fantastic combination of great service, high-quality food and affordable prices, making it a memorable and satisfying visit.

We had the most amazing Christmas lunch my friend and I could not fault it at all. The staff were wonderful and made it a pleasure to be there

A group of us visited this evening and we had a great evening. The staff were fantastic and the food was really good value for money.

We had had a terrible day, we came home to a burgled house. We tidied as much as we could but had to get away from it in search of food. We arrived at a jam packed lumbertubs to be told it was full. I muttered “please, is there any way we can just have snacks it’s been an awful, awful day.” I explained what had happened and Tina had us seated and fed in no time at all. After exposure to such hideous people Tina showed us kindness. She had her hands full that night too with a few disruptive characters and high demand for food. My burger was massive and having not eaten at all all day it did the trick, It was delicious! Thank you for looking after 2 very vulnerable guests xxx

Nice venue, but staff look miserable. Food average and not very warm. Would rather pay more for decent food. Surprised to see car charging points in a carpark. Recommend venue but not the food

excellent food friendly staff will definitely go back been to other flaming grill pubs before this is the best one around northampton date visited 6 -12 -2023

Went for family birthday meal. Thoroughly enjoyed seeing how the place has changed since I last visited. Very nice atmosphere.

Basic pub, could be fantastic it has a good outdoor area, darts, pool table. Staff are typical British pub style. Food is good

Been here a few times now and this was the first time we weren't fully happy. The service and the place can't be faulted, but the food unusually left a lot to be desired. First time ever and everyone can have an off day so won't be too critical on one bad day.

A local public house situated on a busy road but with good access and parking. Unfortunately the interior was shabby and table top needed a good scrub as has built up a sticky surface. Menues were grubby and dog-eared. Writing AND pictures! Cheap prices reflected in poor quality food. I had scampi. 8 small reconstituted scampi meat and had the "salad" instead of sides which was a strange mixture of zucchini and capsicum on frizz lettuce. The salad should have been cold!! My friend had gammon which he did seem to enjoy. There was no Abbot ale on tap. Desserts were all sweet mass produced with bottled syrup poured over. Was I disappointed. Not particularly as I didn't expect a higher standard and as two main meals was 13 quid it didn't break the bank! Hardly cordon bleu prices!! But I was disappointed in the slow service (only two very slow waitresses on) and the unclean interior. I worry about salad which was room temperature. It needs to be in a fridge. This pub serves a locality who do not expect too much. Pity the food lacked imagination. Could do better.

Comfortable, nice food. Pleasant atmosphere..

Fantastic evening, excellent food, nothing was too much trouble, a big thank you to Gemma and the team.

Havent been for a while, it was very busy and had a bit of a wait but it was worth it. Not sure if anything else has changed apart from a new menu since our last visit. The food was great, couldn't fault it and good value for money. Everything was cooked lovely. To be honest it's the best meal we've had for a while compared to other places we've been lately (all quite local) keep it up 😊

Went here for lunch and decided to have the Mixed Grill Skillet, it was really nice and everything was cooked perfectly. Staff who served me were polite, friendly and professional. On the whole a completely pleasant experience with no issues. Many thanks.

Had a lovely family dinner here on 8th October. Good service, they had everything we wanted, nice atmosphere.

after we sorted the tables out, 2 tables apart for a family get to gether is not good ,so after a while they moved us to another table which was pushed together ,

I'm often in the tubs n never have a problem . The food is lovely . The prices are good . I enjoy every visit. Please keep the tubs this way x

Amazing place great staff & really good food with extremely good prices. Definitely worth a visit 👍

Only popped in for a quick drink late on a Saturday, wasn't too busy and they had Karaoke on. Was a nice pub, didn't have any food but did look at the Mighty Grill menu and it looks reasonably priced and good selection of food.

Nice little place to have a nice drink

For the past 6 years this place went downhill.... The food the last couple times I was here was looking and tasting terrible. I am using the app when I order stuff just because most of the weiters are rude and lost the will to live while working here. I would recommend you go to Abington Pub or The County if you want to eat something decent in a pub...

Everything was ok food wise. Menu and table sticky.

Went in on Tuesday 26th September for a couple of beers and some food. Usually a real nice place to go, staff always attentive. However on this occasion was served by a young lad with a degree of attitude. Ordered a pint that was around 2cm short on being an actual pint, I asked for it to be topped up and was ‘hit’ with attitude and it was filled to a degree and then left on the bar away from were I was being served with a smirk… Hence the negative review…

Decided to eat here after a long journey home. Not eaten here for many many years. Although a Saturday evening it was nice and quiet and hubby and I were able to converse without dreadful loud music, despite a private function being held in the function room! Food was good and served quickly although we sat for a while as we were not sure if you had to order at the bar or wait for orders to be taken. Good selections on the menu. I did feel however that there was too much dressing on the salad that accompanied my lasagna, very wet and soggy. Otherwise a good meal and I am certain we will visit again.

This is a pleasant pub where you can get a good meal at a reasonable price. There are different offers on different days so check ahead if you have a particular preference. There is parking at the front and back, and electric charging points too.

Local pub offering a broad menu. Unfortunately, the bar is generally understaffed. Often a queue...yes, a queue at the bar because only one under pressure staff serving. Beer good and reasonable range to choose from.

My meal of fish +chips was dreadful. The fish was not edible

Although this is a "chain" pub, the staff and atmosphere make it a bit above the rest and I've never had a disappointing meal here.

Excellent service and food.The management have turned this pub around to possibly the best in the area.will be seeing us in the future

A warm welcome great service value for money

Our last visit to celebrate a young family member's birthday was abruptly ended by the arrogant and disrespectful comments made by a member of staff. Subsequent complaints to the pub and it's owners Greene King were treated with contempt. Our last visit of many will...

Really great food every time, simple menu with a vast variety of options and great prices. It has yet to disappoint us.

Fab food and service. Will definitely return

Been coming here 40 plusyears !!! Great good, quick service, x

I booked a table on the Thursday to eat on the Saturday a group of 15 family members. All the staff were efficient and friendly. Everyone was happy with their meals which were all correct and hot. Even though we ordered in smaller groups the...

Good food and good service would use again.

Came in for a bite to eat at around 4.30pm. My son ordered the chick n mix and he thoroughly enjoyed his meal. I was a little disappointed in the lack of no meat options, I’m not a great fan of meat and the only think really was Mac n cheese which I ordered as it came with a salad, it would’ve been nice if the vinaigrette was an option as I don’t like them on salad. Apologies to the server who served us and cleared our table she was so attentive and professional my son was cheeky, when she asked if he finished he said no then when she started to walk off he said yes after she had her hands full the cheeky sod. The atmosphere was pleasant and it was quiet when we attended which was nice. Only down side was the table was sticky like it hadn’t been wiped down and the toilets were shocking I walked in and walked straight back out, rather wait till I got home. Oh and the young guy working behind the bar was really nice too 😉😂 I will definitely be back.

Gorgeous food! Can't wait to go back next weekend.

Two adults 3 picky children all fed 3 courses within an hour. Food well cooked sensible portions and a good selection.

They were very helpful, very kind and very polite, they were extremely understanding with how you’d like to have your food such as same plates or have your chocolate on a different plate and have your ice cream seperate the staff were

Excellent service and good value for money

Good value for money And good food

Good food as always and plenty of it.

Overall a really nice pub. Nice food and a good selection too. Some nice deals. Never had an issue except some times there are no staff around to speak to or welcome you.

Great place went back here after 40 years still nice friendly staff good food Greene King value

Do NOT go to this pub if you want a decent meal. Food ordered was not what we received. We don’t consider 4 pieces of scampi to be a “portion”. Having accused us as having asked for a side-order they EVENTUALLY admitted they were in...

I give a 4 stars just because steak pie was soggy taste like been cook in microwave 😬

Good restaurant with tasty food. Ambience is the best

Food is amazing. Miserable woman, tried booking a table of 6 this morning for this evening all tables booked. So came anyway and nearly all tables were free. Arrived and yes their was plenty of tables only to be told book next time, well we...

Love this place, its local, food is good and reasonably priced and the staff are lovely

Granddaughter's birthday meal with family should have been a joyous occasion. Instead a very rude and unfriendly member of staff broke the happy atmosphere by telling us that we would be asked to leave if my two eldest grandkids attempted to pretend to sip my...

Shocked. £1.85 for a *SPLASH* of lemonade after saying I’m driving. Ordered single gin and lemonade, total cost was more than a previously double vodka lemonade. Absolutely disgusted. Got photos of the difference of £1.85 *splash* of lemonade and other pubs / hotels prices. Absolute...

Ordered on the app was nice and easy. Lovely piece of gammon steak today had a nice chatty lunch with my friend wasn't hassled at all to leave service was quick and very friendly.

Lovely food Great value compared to other greene Kings nearby Need a bigger garden

My lads took me ‘ere for Father’s Day and I ‘ave to say this is really a grand establishment. I’m not one to go out to eat very much but I can see myself visiting this pub again. The service was good and I can’t remember the lad’s name, but the bartender was very engaging and made good conversation! The food was solid and the pints were solid-er!!

My son ordered a lasagne. When it was given by the waitress. We both lent over &looked at it. You wouldn't serve it. Or would refuse to serve it.shrivelled up. Burnt around the edges. And didn't cover the pot it was served in. 🙄 My son tried it. And said mum, this is awful. Burnt and tasteless. I asked him to try somewhere where it wasn't burnt/shrivelled up. He said it's soggy and cold. It's awful. I spoke to a blonde lady about it. And said it must have been frozen and microwaved. She said yes I know. They're microwaved, and that's how they come. Like we should except it cooked badly. Her attitude was. It was OK. I said my son does not like it. It's burnt around the outer & soggy in the middle. She wouldn't offer a replacement meal & said I would have to pay for it myself. Which I did. This time, chicken wings. I asked for them to be cooked so the skin was crispy. They came out with uncooked floppy skin. I took them back to her and poked the fatty uncooked skin on them. This time, she changed them. After she offered to cook them again. I said no. A fresh batch, please. I suggested that they need to employ someone who can cook food to a basic standard as this cook was clearly terrible. And couldn't cook food to a decent standard. I won't be wasting my money in there on food. It's bloody awful 😖 I suggested you avoid at all costs. As if bad. You'll be out of pocket like I was. Shocking attbybthe member of staff. It is shocking that it leaves the kitchen looking burnt and dehydrated. Or under cooked. Go elsewhere. The standard is very low. Staff don't care either!

Nice pub and restaurant with plenty of seating area inside and out highly recommended

So impressed with the lumbertubs. Sam and her staff are a credit. The food was amazing, service second to none. Staff very pleasant and helpful. We all will be back very soon!!!

Flatbreads were delicious and great as part of the offer. Outside in the sunshine was beautiful

Went last night with a party of 8 people. The food was great especially the XL mixed grill. The reason I only give 4 stars is there was hardly any desserts available. Staff was great, friendly and attentive, would recommend….

Average food food and drinks took ages to arrive and all the staff had put on a depressing atmosphere and were all quite not rude but annoyed

Staff very welcoming and friendly. Food was fabulous and on time.

Good deals n foods not bad at all

I meet up with old work colleagues every couple of months... Food is good and prices are not too bad. Staff are always friendly and I definitely recommend eating here 😃

Spent a very pleasant afternoon here having a Coronation afternoon tea with friends. So reasonably priced, we couldn't believe the value for money. Staff were friendly and attentive. Sam then told us that the management had decided to donate the takings to a charity.

We attended for a 40th birthday meal. There was 10 of us and we booked the table in advance. We first ordered drinks at the bar which was fine. It was a nice atmosphere. Then we ordered our meals in pairs via the app at...

Great food and lovely friendly staff. Great for any occasion. It is best to book for the busier times.

Really nice staff and really great food, will definitely be returning 😊

Service is good, food is ok and kitchen is closed at 8 pm weekdays. Ok prices for alcohol, not too expensive in comparison to others.

Lovely manager but food was terrible. Will not go back

Easter Sunday and at 4.30 in the afternoon it wasn't to busy. Service was good as the young lady in our section was attentive. 4 of us in total and our grandson, and we all had different meals. I decided to go down the chicken mix route, but for me a mistake as just to much. No reflection on the food, just I picked to much. Value for money yes. My only thoughts are on the overall menu, just very samey.

Amazing venue and lovely food for my 40th birthday party. Great service very well organised. Recommended.

Came in with family of 7. Booked very last minute. They fitted us in and the service was excellent. Food hot and very tasty. The pub was very busy and had a great atmosphere. The staff went the extra mile to make sure my kids...

Very good service, food and parking. Only one point, would have preferred frozen peas

We were served in the restaurant by a lovely lady whose name I think was Sally, it was her first day back. We told her that we only had an hour and she made sure that we were served in a timely manner. She was...
