Shuckburgh Arms in East Northamptonshire

Fantastic makeover for this traditional village pub. Reopened on Christmas eve, nice selection of Nene Valley Brewery beers as well as the usual lager and spirit selection. They how to start coffee, pastries and full menu soon, but this is a phenomenal start and brings so much life into the village!!

Hard to get in anyplace today due to Mothers-day. I left it till a few day b4. Phoned up and they were very accommodating. Arrived on time. Table ready. Drink came in good time and also got a nice surprise for the mother. Like the idea of not have 100’s of dishes on the menu. Good for veggies and the nut roast was great. Very good flavours and just about the right amount. Gravy came in a separate boat. Service and staff good. Puddings were a decent size. Bill all ok . Nice venue and easy to find.

A celebratory lunch with friends. We were very impressed with the measures taken to maximise social distancing. The visit was our first since lock Dow, and we felt totally safe. . The food was as good as it ever had been. Well done.

lucky to get in on sunday...book if possible. excellent food and well presented. the children enjoyed the garden. service was prompt and friendly. more of a resaurant than a pub.

Very welcoming local pub. Good standard of local pub grub and very friendly staff. Always make our cycling group feel mega welcome. Whats not to love!

Popped in for a drink after long walk. Bob and Tina made us feel very welcome and the beer was excellent. Will be coming back for fish and chip night on a Thursday. The pub is TINY so book if you need a table. Refreshing Pub like they use to be with proper pub food menu and reasonable prices.

Don’t know why I haven’t written a review before now. Been here several times, brought family for meet ups and been for a cosy meal for two. The Shuckburgh at Stoke Doyle, nr Oundle can do no wrong in my eyes OR the eyes of our families. The food is amazing whether you visit on a weekday/night, Saturday or Sunday. Try it, you won’t be disappointed

My husband and I went here the Saturday night before Easter. We had delicious leg of lamb and duck. Our server was so friendly and attentive. We plan to go back.

A very high quality roast, good service good portions and great value for money, pleasant atmosphere. Second visit now !

Not visited for a long time but will return sooner rather than later - ambience and welcome was excellent; this was followed by extremely well presented and cooked food and was obvious quality local produce was used. The drinks were excellent also with a very wide choice available- for 2 people with drink to get a bill under £50 was very good value for money . If only you were closer to Corby ☹️

We've been to the 'Shuck' many times but on this occasion it was a little bit special, we were treating another couple to Sunday lunch. I'm sure a lot of people have been in the same position that you praise up a pub and just hope all is at the standard you normally enjoy and expect. Well Fran and her staff never let us down, the food was, as ever, perfect, the service exceptional and price didn't break the bank? It's high praise to say that the couple who we took actually booked a table the following weekend just to pass the experience onto their other friends. Well done Fran

Popped in for a quick drink on our travels and we're pleasantly suprised by this community owned pup. Although we never ate on this visit the food looked lovely and reasonable priced. The beer was lovely and well kept all coupled with very friendly and welcoming locals it made for a lovely rest stop. Our dog was also made very welcome. Thank you.

Visited the Shuckburgh Arms again last evening with a couple of friends and once again we weren't disappointed. Fran looked after us so well and the service was first class. Starters included whitebait, portobello mushrooms and Cajun chicken- all cooked to perfection. Main courses of the steak and ale pie, haddock moray, slow cooked blade of beef and the pork tenderloin were all excellent, served as described on the menu. There was just a little room for a couple of desserts that ended a lovely evening. We will return as soon as we can.

Just a all round great restaurant. Very good meals, the best Cajun chicken I have had in a long time.

Set against an idyllic, peaceful, country backdrop this is a wonderful place to have a relaxing drink or nice meal. Friendly staff, great selection of beer and awesome food. Can't wait to go back again and would recommend to anyone!

We had eaten here a couple of years ago and wanted to return as our 1st experience was so good and we were not disappointed. The welcome is warm and friendly, the 2 courses for £14.95 is a a real bargain. The meals are well presented, good sized portions and imaginative. I would recommend and hopefully will revisit soon.

The meals we had were very basic; there was no GF option and the capacino coffee almost undrinkable - a poor show with a very limited snack lunch menu.

Sin duda que volveré. Vale la pena una visita. Buena comida y raciones. Encantador y confortable interior

La 3ª vez a Shuckburgh Arms este año. Un poco tranquilo ya que era una noche de rugby lleno pero aún así había un buen número de mesas.

Ya habíamos tenido una excelente cena aquí con un grupo de ocho de nosotros. El servicio con una sonrisa y una buena selección de menú.por lo tanto, decidimos tomar el almuerzo de domingo a mi esposa y I. Aunque'habíamos reservado no pudieron encontrar nuestro nombre listado . Esto no ha impedido ellos . No hay problema, nos dijeron que caben en . magnífica de cerdo asado, postres deliciosos buen servicio y no muy caro. Ten cuidado ya que hay tres brazos de Shuckburgh a pocos kilómetros unos de otros. PD: encontraron nuestra reserva. Alguien tenía mispelt nuestro nombre! Paul Taylor

Wow this place is great to eat out. Fantastic menu, wonderful food every time. The service is relaxed but very efficient - very family freindly. Definitely my favourite night out.

Six of us went out for a birthday meal. Chose this pub because of its location. We was not disappointed . Great location. Friendly welcome. Given a choice of tables. Good range on the menu. Service was excellent, the food was even better. If you are looking for a country pub with good food and great atmosphere look no further. We will be back. Bed and beakfast is also available.

I came with a group of friends for a 50th birthday dinner. All of the food was delicious and the service was excellent. We all went home a very full and very happy bunch.

Great staff, great feeling, amazing food. Massive outdoor garden. Outdoor heaters, live music, open fire inside and very good quality reasonably priced food. Dogs welcome and even remember his name. Best pub been to in years so much so when my father in law comes to stay he insists we only go here.

Met here for the first time to meet up with friends as a half-way meeting point. Had the two course lunch menu which was good value for money. No complaints at all, the venue is nice, the food great, reasonably priced for 'proper cooking' and we will be back. Four empty plates on each course ...... enough said.

My husband found this place whilst making a collection from the farm next door, we went for lunch today and the food was faultless, we are both foodies and I can be hard to please, however the quality of food, the warm friendly service and the place itself were awesome, this will become a regular visit for us.

We have often stopped in here on a summer evening and sat in the lovely garden overlooking open countryside. Excellent service and great food. Just on the edge of Oundle a good place to walk to from town and walk off supper on the way home.

We went for a Christmas meal in a group. We were seated in an alcove which was nice. The special Christmas menu was carefully thought out with plenty of choice. The food was well cooked and served in generous portions. The vegetables were just and the roast potatoes retained some crispiness which isn't always the case.

We rang at short notice, they fitted us in no problem and four of us had a super meal. We shared a white bait, and then had a curry, a blade of beef, a steak and ale pie and a chicken/bacon/brie salad, all excellent. Fran and her staff were warm and welcoming. Puddings were delicious, we sampled the brownie, eton mess, sticky toffee pudding......yum! Will definitely book in here again.

Although the website menu for the grill was disappointing as no Fillet Steaks were available when we got there due to an oversight on updating their website. The food was great and the service was very good there was still plenty to choose from.

Recently started using this pub after a disappointing experience at a nearby establishment that has gone downhill. It has been a lovely surprise. Landlady Fran is lovely and the food is excellent. Nice atmosphere and attentive service. It's everything apub should be and the setting is gorgeous. Thoroughly recommended.

Eight of us took advantage of the two courses for £13.95 offer on a very quiet Wednesday evening. Amoung the dishes we ordered were whitebait, shin of beef, pan fried chicken, slow roasted belly pork, Eton mess and sticky toffee pudding. No one was disapointed, the food being well presented and very tasty. The service is fast and friendly and the house wines great value. Combine that with localy brewed beer and this is a great foody pub.

Meal deals are great value and there is lots of choice. The food is always tasty, lovely pub in a nice location

Lovely little restaurant with rooms, food is consistently excellent, as is the service.Staff are friendly and atmosphere is relaxed and welcoming.WIll return

We booked for Christmas Day lunch for nine people the first time we have eaten out at Christmas.We were not disappointed,the food was excellent as was the service. We had the table for as long as we wanted and the atmosphere was very relaxed. We have eaten here many times now and have always enjoyed the food. I would thoroughly recommend this country restaurant.

A great village pub serving lovely food with good service. We have been many times to the Shuckburgh Arms, Stoke Doyle and have always had good food. Whether on an evening or lunchtime, the atmosphere is nice and the menu choices are good - not bad value either.In the summer - perfect for families as has a garden with swings/climbing frame for children to have fun whilst waiting for food to come out.Never used the accomodation - but sure it is good!
