The Brampton Halt in Daventry

Lovely food and service by Erin :) would definitely go back! Can’t wait for our next visit Thankyou really enjoyed it…..

A very enjoyable evening, staff were very nice as was the food, would go again.

Such amazing service from Erin! She was amazing and the food was delicious - highly recommend!

Good food, reasonably priced, and, amazingly, draught Heineken zero. Perfect for a non drinker such as me.

Great ambience . Friendly staff and fantastic food. Worth the money. Food is quite delicious as well. Good quantity and top notch quality. Would thoroughly recommend the place for lunch/ dinner .

I just had my 50th birthday party at the Marquee at the Halt. The events team were great; attentive, proactive and really helped make it a great night. Food was excellent too. Would thoroughly recommend choosing Brampton Halt if you're thinking of hosting a party.

Very pleasant venue. Called in for breakfast, bacon & sausage sandwiches, plentiful fillings with sauces on request. Attentive staff and great surroundings. Reasonable prices.

We were very disappointed with our visit; my daughter is a vegan and the menu appeared promising. We were told on arrival that they were out of vegan cheese, so we said it wouldn't be a problem. My daughter ordered the Spiced Courgette and Sweetcorn Fritters for her starter, which they didn't have; she then ordered the French Onion soup instead, as the menu said they offered a vegan alternative. We were then informed that it wasn't vegan after all, as it was made with beef broth! I told the waiter that the menu was therefore wrong and he said he would tell them to change it. Unfortunately there were no other vegan options on the starter menu. We then ordered the vegan burger for her main course, saying we realised they were out of vegan cheese; the waitress then said, "So you don't want cheese in the burger?" Although the waitress knew my daughter was a vegan, she clearly thought that normal cheese was a suitable alternative! It appears that the staff need training on the dietary requirements of vegans. This whole experience spoiled what was supposed to be my daughter's birthday celebration meal. We won't be rushing back.

Absolutely excellent! Dealt with champagne gifts from absent friends. Delivered the cake to the table with sparklers lit and a very creditable rendition of 'happy birthday'. Fantastic food!

I visited for the first time to have the Valentine’s Day Set Menu and it was incredible. A really lovely venue, the service was fantastic and the food was great! I will definitely we returning in the summer as they have a massive garden ☀️

The food and place is so amazing! Great every time we come. Our server was Beccy and she was wonderful so helpful and lovely. Will definitely return.

Amazing service, food was too! Very enjoyable evening.

Once again almost amazing Sunday lunch and service It was all superb again If you've not been it's definitely worth a visit

Stayed at the nearby hotel and decided to eat out and found here. The staff were really friendly and helpful. It had a good selection on the menu and the food was really good portion sizes and tasty.

While we made the most of the evening, the food was terrible. We visited a few weeks ago and had an excellent time with excellent food. This visit, while fun the food was awful. Do you have different chefs? The last meal was cooked very well, this one wá very poor so much so that I will question visiting the Brampton Halt again. A shame as the serving staff were wonderful as usual

Very good service excellent quality of food atmosphere relaxed and friendly

We had an absolutely fantastic meal here last night. Ten of us. Delicious food and excellent service. We will definitely be back. Highly recommend.

Me my partner and her parents had a lovely experience. Erin our server was attentive, sweet and just genuinely a really nice person. All of the food was lovely and came out really quick, had a lovely experience. Thanks to the chefs and a big thanks to Erin she made our evening!

Wonderful stay and room very comfy 👏👏👏👏

It has been a while since we visited The Halt, so we were looking forward to a visit. We were not disappointed. Service was good, from our waitress Erin who was most attentive. A little wait for the main course, but the food was very good. I had the sea bass and my wife choose from the specials, Lasagne which was excellent. Daughter in law Belly Pork.which she said was the best, my brother in law had the fish and chips. All first class. Thank you

Excellent Burns supper by Andy the friendly Scottish chef who came out to greet us. All 10 of us very much enjoyed the food we ordered including Cullen skink, haggis pakora, balmoral chicken, haggis main course and Cranachan. Every single course was delicious! Well done Andy!

We celebrated our daughters 18th birthday at the Brampton Halt in the Marquee this weekend.  It was fabulous!  Sadie was our point of contact from our initial enquiry to the running of the event on the night.  She was so helpful and gave us plenty of ideas around decorations and set up etc...nothing was too much trouble.  She put us at ease with all of it, and we all had such a great night - young and older alike!  The staff who worked alongside Sadie on the night were polite and friendly and did a cracking job.  I would recommend wholeheartedly for an event such as a birthday, special lunch, etc....and can't think of a single thing I would change about our event. We didn't eat hence score!

The Brampton Halt is a hidden gem when it comes to wedding venues. Every wedding I’ve photographed there has been filled with so much joy. The team there really know how to take care of every little detail, making the day completely stress-free and enjoyable for everyone. If you’re searching for a wedding venue in Northamptonshire that feels inviting and full of charm, The Brampton Halt is definitely worth checking out!

We had Sunday roast here last week, 4 of us and our small puppy. Given a booth with views, the place is absolutely gorgeous inside and out. The food was amazing, massive portions, and so tasty, and the service was superb!!!! will definately be coming back :-)

Lunch Tuesday... I had garlic cheese bread and red onion and goats cheese tart (small but delicious!) My friend had a lovely burger. The food was beautifully presented and the restaurant atmosphere is very relaxing.. it is great in the summer too for al fresco dining as it is in a lovely countryside setting.

Great brunch. Excellent service. Couldn’t fault.

This place is wonderful. The food is amazing (and comes out really quickly!) , the staff are very lovely (was served by Erin) and this pub is very cozy. Absolutely love this pub! Will be back 😁

Amazing food and Erin very attentive and professional many thanks

Great place, great food, awesome staff

Great location and good food and drink selection. Staff were adequate. Some staff looked very new, and overwhelmed but a good experience.

Such a good pub with decent food and great staff, could not wish for more other than it was within walking distance. The staff are absolutly lovely.

We tried to book for Sunday dinner and although the booking was pending we decided to call as they had not contacted us to confirm. We were then told there was no availability. Why didn't they have the decency to contact us and let us know as we could have driven for 40 minutes to be told there was no table available. Very poor service . You need to up your game as we won't be eating here again. Would have got a zero but a one is the lowest you can go.

Booked for same day Sunday 12th, email saying pending - no email of confirmation so I called the restaurant to find I have no table … absolutely atrocious booking system, customers need and want a simple yes or no when using online booking systems - McManus take a look at your terrible system please

Just had a big birthday lunch here. Couldn’t fault it. Hog roast in a marquee in January. Toasty warm. Great food. The staff were fabulous. My guests loved it

Lovely pub and service, gluten free options but could provide better options for gluten free. I ordered the gluten free chicken roast was really nice. However normally comes with Stuffing and Yorkshire, they don't provide gf Yorkshire which is fine but menu stated gluten free alternative for Stuffing and i never received any.

Brampton Holt did us proud last night for a surprise 80th birthday party last night for my husband the food was excellent and service was amazing. Would recommend to anybody. Thank you to all the staff for a special evening.

really lovely evening. Good quality of food and well looked after. The only reason for 4/5 stars is that the deserts weren’t worth the money and tasted like they had been put in the microwave. other than that. fantastic food, drink and service!

Waited almost an hour to be served food, which was not to a good standard.

We were here Christmas Day for dinner and again on the 29 th celebrating my daughter’s 21st . On both occasions the food and service was excellent. The staff are so attentive. We will be definitely returning.

Left cold and hungry after a 45min wait outside for food - simple burger and fries order. No outside heating at the tables.

Enjoyed a lovely Sunday lunch with friends at the Brampton Halt yesterday. My husband ordered the fish and chips which were good although the batter was a little too undercooked for him. One of our friends had the roast chicken while the other had the roast beef, which came pink. This was good for my friend but if you prefer it more well done I’m sure they would be happy to accommodate. I had the roast lamb. All the meats were succulent and tender. I always find roast potatoes, not crispy enough but the other vegetables; red cabbage, parsnips, carrots, brussel sprouts were all cooked beautifully. It was served with a large Yorkshire pudding. We asked for various sauces and extra gravy, which took a little while to come, but they were busy and apart from that, the service was good. We ordered two desserts between us. One was treacle tart and the other was ice cream with a coffee sauce I think. Both good. One of our friends is in a wheelchair. He found accessibility to the restaurant and the toilet facilities very good. Everything was in reach. The only thing he did comment on, was the fact that usually when he goes to a restaurant, and today was no exception, is that it’s difficult for him to get his chair close enough to the table because the tables invariably have centre legs. This stops him drawing his wheelchair in close enough to the table, so maybe something for Restauranteurs to consider when adapting their premises for wheelchair users. Overall, our visit was very good and very enjoyable. Would recommend.

Wife and me had Christmas dinner , amazing food , fabulous service and great atmosphere , will be back next year 💯 , thanks to everyone 🎯

Fantastic meal cooked by chef Andy. Melt in the mouth beef ! Amazing 👏

Loved this great vibe staff low-key hit on me. But Belinda was always vibes. Also someone did shots all night behind the bar. And it was sooooo fun. They always match my freak 😘 on my way as we speak

We came here for a Boxing Day meal and we were served by Erin who was vey helpful and dealt with everything accordingly even when had a slight problem she was great.

Lovely meal out with friends. Staff were fab. Tasty food. Would go again.

Food is always amazing and so is the place. Erin is so professional and accomodating. Always a good time whenever my husband and I come here.

Great food, great service; was very impressed with our booking rearrangement due to weather. Consistently good.

Even though they where busy the managed to find a table for us to have a meal at, staff where very helpful and accommodating, food was nice as usual.

Lovely food, thanks Georgie for the attentive service and happy attitude! Gingerbread martini was delicious as well! Merry Xmas all :)

Wonderful place, very kind and helpful staff, big thanks to Erin for being super welcoming! Definitely want to come back again next December

28th year of getting together here at Christmas with family. It gets better every passing year. The food this time was absolutely delicious, and it was the best service yet by far. Our server Erin was super friendly, charming, funny and efficient! Will be back soon!

Lovely pub and great service. Christmas menu is awesome.

Took step mum for her Xmas treat here for the 1st time. Couldn't fault it, definitely on our hit list for our next treat lunch.

Went for a Christmas meal. The food was really good. They account for dietary needs and Molly are server was incredible.

Went to Brampton hault yesterday for a Christmas meal with friends service was terrible. we were walking around looking for staff.ordered Dessert at 1 45 still waiting at 2 30 so we told them to forget. about the Dessert so we walked out. and it used to be one of my favourite pubs not now.and we sat down at 12 30

A great venue to host a get together before Christmas, the pub is beautifully decorated. Really enjoyable food and drinks from the Christmas menu - usually these are a bit hit and miss but this was spot on. Thank you to the team who looked after us so well on Saturday night.

We came for breakfast with Santa, it was the best experience we have ever had. Santa was absolutely amazing spending quality time with my granddaughter and telling her about all his reindeer’s. Staff couldn’t do enough for us and my granddaughter hasn’t stopped talking about Santa x The food was excellent quality and value for money. Will definitely be back next year

Food was below average taste wise, presentation was nice. The service wasn’t what I was expecting, the young lads that work there were polite and professional but the ladies at the bar were rude, looked like they cannot be bothered to work there that sadly was mood blower and cocktails were not done properly when served by slightly curvy lady. On the positive note the interior was nice. It was my first visit to see and try something new out side town and probably the last.

We dined at Brampton Halt with our family for my wife and her sisters birthday. Our Server was Georgie, who was very attentive and courteous when taking our order, and the food delivery. It is very pleasing when you get staff who are interested in serving you with such service. It is also a credit to the restaurant, as you feel a return visit is always tops when dining out. The food was delivered within a reasonable time and piping hot. The menu had a good selection, and we appreciated the Presecco to celebrate the twins bithday. Thank you Brampton Halt.

Family of 9 including 2 Children. Very good food and the staff were all excellent

This Christmas meal was organised for 21 tennis members, all enjoyed the food from the festive menu, although some comments relating to the square ? Christmas pud dessert, but overall all cooked well, served promptly and hot, and good waitress service from Georgie. Ambience excellent. Dietary preferences adhered to, and all organising went smoothly from initial booking.

Great catch up with friends to celebrate Christmas. Food was lovely and nothing was too much trouble for Georgie, she was friendly and catered for all our needs

Thank you to Lily for a lovely evening for my Dad's birthday! A great time as always!

FOOD AND SERVICE WAS GREAT. HOWEVER DIDNT FEEL COMFORTABLE WITH BEING SAT RIGHT BUY BOOKING IN KIOSK

The food was really good and the staff were very helpful to our party of 15 Christmas meal

Came in for a family lunch today, our waiters Beccy was very attentive! Always checking to see if we had everything we needed and was happy with our meals! Food was great, I recommend the steak and ale pie!

Delicious food, friendly staff. Highly recommend. Beccy was amazing! Thank you

Delicious food and had Beccy as our waitress and she was very lovely. Highly recommend.

Visited last night for a family meal. Great service by Beccy and food was lovely.

Great service (Erin) and food at Brampton Halt

Great place to meet for a good lunch.

Went with family to celebrate my daughters graduation. We had booked online and were quickly shown to our table.The service and food was excellent and it's always nice when someone comes over and asks if everything was alright. My only criticism would be where we were it was a bit dark .For a special occasion this place is lovely and even though very busy we didn't have to wait long.

My wife and I had a celebratory dinner on a Saturday evening. We’ve eaten here many times over the years and we thought the current menu is the most imaginative that we could recall. I started with Black Pudding Scotch Egg, which was perfectly cooked with the yolk still soft. My main was Cullen Skink - it was slightly unconventional in that the haddock was served whole rather than flaked into, and partly cooked with, the ‘soup’ but the flavour was spot-on and the fish cooked exactly to my liking. Treacle tart with custard completed an excellent meal. It was a little sweeter than I would have liked; imo more lemon was needed to cut the sweetness, but that’s a minor criticism. Highly recommended!

New menu is great! I need to come back soon as there's so many things I need to try. Pork belly was delicious 😋

Lovely pub, helpful friendly staff. Only complaint was the food was abit cold

Had a great night having dinner followed by watching the firework display and listening to the amazing Fat Cat Brass Band. The staff were great and I appreciated Leanne’s help in making sure we managed to get tickets for the event.

Sunday Pork Roast was terrible, tasted ok ish, no crackling as advertised, pork slightly overcooked, roast potatoes tasted hard, green in colour and seemed to have been microwaved. Yorkshire pudding came flat and tasted soggy... I'm not sure what happened to the food today. I checked reviews, and only one from last week said something similar. Looking around restaurant, and others seem to have left food of similar on their plates (just saying).. Staff are lovely, though.

We love Brampton Halt it's been a favourite of ours for many years but it's been awhile since we've visited until this week. Still a firm favourite the food was delicious, surroundings lovely and great service and welcoming atmosphere. Thank you 😊

Visited last night for fireworks and what a wonderful night it was 👍🏻

We had a fantastic time celebrating my Father’s birthday here. The decor looks modern and everything was spotlessly clean. The staff were delightful, welcoming and very friendly. The Sunday Dinner was stunning, with a good amount of well-cooked food. The burgers were also fantastic with the ‘BH’ press on them. The prices were very reasonable for both food and drink. Very impressed and would absolutely return.

Did book but shoved on a table at the back of pub which was dark asked to move was told they were fully booked and only other table they had was worse than that one we were already at - bill expensive for what we had beware 10% service.Don’t think I will be visiting again anytime soon.

I booked the Brampton for a family gender reveal party and was worried about the size of the party as there was 23 of us. All of the food was correct, the service was efficient and everything went perfectly. Our waitress was attentive and made sure there was no stress with the size of the booking. Everyone within the party could not talk highly enough of the food with everything being cooked to perfection. Would definitely recommend.

We drove up from Kent to take our daughter out for a nice meal for Tuesday lunchtime but it was anything but! We had to find our own menu’s placed order at the bar then waited just under an hour for starters, the starters were ok but not worth the wait then waited another 25mins for the main meal which was awful, my daughter had chicken supreme which was so dry and the broccoli cold and watery, I had Caesar salad rock hard chicken and so much dressing that was not pleasant, husband had pie which he said was ok. Then sat with half eaten finished plates as the staff walked passed us and cleaned 2 empty tables behind us that had dirty plates and glasses on it from when we first arrived, waited a further 10min for them to take our plates and give us the dessert menus that we gave up and got the bill. My daughter who has autism was really good and patient but still hungry so now in MCDonald’s which is where I’m writing this review from. The Parkin Family

Ordered Pork Gyros and it was terrible. I knew it would be bad because the food came in less than 5 minutes since I placed the order. Salad was off as well as the pork, just reheated.

What a lovely Sunday lunch. Brilliant variety of food and a giant yorkie pud which was all delicious.

The restaurant is extremely clean/The staff very attentive and the food first class

Great food though service was a little bit slow

Amazing place. Food and service great

Pleasant and reasonably priced meal with friends

Lovely friendly and efficient staff,food beautifully cooked and hot and nice ambience would definitely recommend .

Hadn't been for a while as we live some miles away but love this place. So glad that carved lamb is back on the roast menu replacing the lamb "mush" that was being served a while back. Good food (although a little more gravy would not go amiss), great service from a very helpful and pleasant waitress and a nice atmosphere overall. We will be back.

My food order wasn’t the best tasting however the service was brilliant.

Really nice group meal for 13, duck salad was great. Unfortunately got charged for a wine that we had agreed was to be taken off the bill and did not realise until we had left which was frustrating. Great atmosphere, 3pm and the place was lively and preparing for Oktoberfest. Stayed locally for the weekend so not likely to be back, but only for that reason. Friendly server.

We have been here 3 times in the last 2 months and no complaints. The staff are amazing so friendly and helpful food is excellent would highly recommend for families or couples.

I was very happy with the food, atmosphere and generally service was good. However I was very concerned to see serving staff petting dogs then continuing to serve food & drink without washing their hands. I think this is unhygienic and staff really need to be advised not to do this.

Excellent food and service in a very pleasant environment.

Great place for.meals good menu staff very friendly service good we only go hear for meals

Fantastic ploughman'ssharing platter - great service - what's not to like

Very good but one of our courses was warm and not hot. We would still go back as atmosphere good and food good. Staff are lovely. 😻
