The Britannia in Northampton

Service was great (especially Kayla who was happy to be named). Great selection on the menu, we both had the signature burger that was a generous size. Happy to recommend.

Another Sunday lunch time at the Britannia. Great food, great time, great vibes. A little bit of wait but was busy so understandable.

It is my Birthday today so we went to the Britannia for a meal. I booked on line and my request for a table by the open fire was honoured. Sam was looking after us and he is a real asset to your company, nothing is too much trouble, friendly, polite, a real pleasure to be served by him. The food was fantastic, I had the vegetarian burger my husband the sea bass, both delicious and I even manged a dessert which too was scrumptious. The portion sizes are great (I have a healthy appetite) and was extremely satisfied and full when I left. I've booked again for Friday to go with the girls from work..can't wait.

8 of us went out to celebrate my husband’s birthday at The Britannia. The food was as delicious as ever, in fact every plate was empty, so that’s always a good sign! The lamb shank shepherds pie is amazing!! Sam (our waiter) looked after us from arrival until departure and what a credit he is to you! He had full knowledge of the menu, laughed and joked with us, regularly checked to see if we needed more drinks, but without being pushy. What a star he is!! We will be back soon!! Thanks to the chef for the amazing food and of course to Sam!!

We had the Sunday Roast. The food had obviously all been pre-cooked and then heated up. The food looked and tasted absolutely terrible. You could use the Yorkshire puddings as rocks. A shame as the ambience and service were good and the pub/restaurant is lovely since it’s been modernised but the food really leaves little to be desired (the Sunday roast anyway!)

Had a lovely evening - served by Sam. Couldn’t have been better xxxx

Amazing place. We spent couple of hours there and it’s beautiful place, food is amazing and team is just super friendly and helpful. Beautiful fireplace🔥I just absolutely love this place.

Food selection good, staff very pleasant. Food was good to. Only slight fly in the ointment was the fact the puddings took a long time to arrive

Lovely friendly staff, Claire was amazing. Lovely meal would deffo recommend:)

A lovely and cosy place for family gathering. Staff are also welcoming.

We were served by Claire Mo and Dan, really cosy restaurant and the food was delicious.

Lovely place and delicious food. Good parking and wheelchair accessible

Such a shame. It’s such a lovely pub but the food is hit and miss. We had a lovely Sunday lunch there a few months ago. This time the calamari starter was awful. Chewy in tasteless batter and they weren’t hot so I think they had been standing for a while before being bought out. There was oil from the fryer on the plate which looked like it hadn’t been changed for weeks. And as for the garnish! Soggy old watercress. The whole thing was just yuk. The Mediterranean roast veg tart was mostly peas! And some soggy old fried potatoes….

Sam and Morgan were lovely hosts, the food was excellent, definitely would recommend

Lovely meal at the Britannia. Food was really nice and service was amazing. Sam was such a lovely waiter - thanks so much!

Nice place , very quiet controlled atmosphere .

As always, lovely roast and staff very welcoming and friendly

Noisy restaurant, very slow service, but friendly, substandard food

Food was brilliant, we loved our waiter Sam, he was superb 😍

Unfortunately the service was incredibly slow, food eventually came out but parts of three dishes were missing! The pie only had three pieces of meat and lots of gravy. One dish was overcooked and the lamb needed a steak knife. Worst meal out ever.

Sam and Kayla both very kind and professional

Lovely place and kind waiter Sam's and Kayla

Nice pub, kind staff who were thoughtful towards my elderly Mum.

Came here with a friend at the weekend food was lovely all staff were very welcoming and so nice!! Definitely would recommend and definitely will be returning again :)

Had a great lunch at Britannia which is a little gem on the edge of Northampton. Service was great, the food came out hot, in good time & you could tell it was freshly prepared. Portion sizes mean you won't leave on an empty stomach but there is still space for something after and we managed to grab a table by one of the fires. Will definitely be visiting again and getting a Sunday lunch booked in!

We had a great family meal at The Britannia tonight. The food was great and the servers were really friendly and made sure we had a good time. Thanks!

An great choice for a lunch. Good choice. Good food. Excellent service.

We came here with my wife’s family for lunch. The food was great and Sam’s service was friendly and attentive. Fantastic!

Sam at the Brittania was fantastic. Thank you Sam, enjoy your Sunday ;)

Our first time here, We had a lovely meal and drinks. Sam was so lovely, took care of us and made us feel so welcome. Will definitely be back

My Mum and I went for lunch and was served by Sam, he was excellent and couldn’t do enough for us. So friendly and welcoming. The food was lovely too! Thank you Sam! We will be returning :) x

Excellent lunch in great atmosphere with good friendly service from Sam and Kayla. Super food at good price from wide ranging menu

We were serviced by an amazing waiter named Sam, he went above and beyond for our full party, this was a work team meal and make each and everyone one of us welcome. The food was very good and the refurbishments have gone a long way since I was last here. We would definitely go again

Great service and great food. The atmosphere is nice and the staff are really friendly. The food was served in good time and was very nice. Dessert too. Served by Sam, Alex and Alex

Really nice classic British pub!! We had a super good burger but the steak pie was amazing!!! Service by Sarah was impeccable and very nice to us. Thank you!!!

Food was very tasty, Sarah was lovely and prices are very good as well. Definitely recommend!

Lovely place, love the atmosphere

Visited for lunch, had a great meal and excellent service! Sam was lovely and welcoming and made our visit. Will definitely return! X

Dreadful experience, service very slow, panfried chicken breast is a joke, thin slice of chicken, 3 cubes of potato and a bit of cabbage no onions as advertised, definitely not worth £11.99? Vegetable soup looked like the remains of Sunday lunch put into boiling water, chicken and bacon sandwich was hunt for the filling. Will definitely not be going back, not sure how they get away with serving these sort of meals for the price.

Service very slow. Meal from lunch time menu, grilled chicken was dreadful, tiny piece of chicken, looked like left over vegetables and roast potatoe for £11, very small portion for the price.

Great location, lovely food and great service.

Very warm and welcoming, great service from all the staff, especially Sarah ( Strawberry) and Sam.

Very nice atmosphere, good food. Highly recommended all around!

Beautiful meal, lovely pub and super friendly staff 😊

It's a lovely place inside, really cosy. The food was not great. Everything was very chewy and the calamari had very little flavour. The waiter also took away our starter plates and then offered us dessert which was a simple mistake but not expected given how nice it is inside.

Well if you like a long wait the service seems to be for regular clients the food I would say is not good and over priced when we got there the older lady was slamming doors looking for meaus and made myself and the younger lady nervous and was rude to not even wait to slam around when a Cilent is awaiting to be seated I would advise to go to somewhere that can give you a all round service once seated took awhile for someone to take order and than the food the pie was a pre heat and broccoli tasted old please turn around and go somewhere that gives you a smile and good food and service not provided here

Went here for a celebration drink and Sam was super nice and made my overall experience better, so thank you Sam!

Excellent meal, lovely food and even better that they are dog friendly! A special mention to Mo for the brilliant service!

Nice food, good quality for money and decent staff

Great atmosphere, great food and fantastic service

Just got in from a night at the Britannia. Booked the table for 5pm, such a lovely atmosphere we sat and chatted for ages. Great food, drinks variety was good too. Clare looked after us very well, checking in to see if we were okay, and leaving us in peace to catch up with each other. Would recommend to anyone, a wonderful evening. Thanks again Clare

Sam with the blue hair was an absolute pleasure to have serving myself, mum, and grandparents. Impeccable food and atmosphere!

Sam was brilliant friendly and fun, sassy blue hair rocks lovely meal highly recommended

Nice pub. The food is great and well priced. The service was a little slow. After being shown to our seats, it took about 10 minutes to place our drinks order, then another 22 minutes to place our food order. Tried the special mixed grill, which I can say was delicious Would have stayed for desert, but due to the length of time it took for the mains, I had to leave The lighting is a little poor as it was hard to read the menus

No steaks available.The pork belly I had was a small portion.Plenty of other public houses that offer better.Staff not experienced.Just kids.Felt sorry for them

Very good food but really slow to table - both courses

Really nice waterside pub, recently revamped. Food was tasty and fresh. Recommended.

Visited for the first time in about 5 years and have to say the food, atmosphere and service had gone up a few levels. Alex and Sam ensured that we enjoyed every aspect of our visit and we left having enjoyed a wonderful lunch together

I’ve been to the Britannia a few times and it never disappoints. The pub is cosy but modern and the food is always delicious. The service is great, even with large groups. Sam and Alex did a great job at serving us.

Our first time back since the refurb and it has a lovely cosy feeling to it, booked a table online which was very easy, we were served by Sam and Alex who were great and very attentive, the food was lovely and they accommodated the kids requests for customised meals, planning to return for lunch soon,

Really loved this place. Our waiter and waitress were really friendly and helpful. My little boy loved talking to them.

Sam and Alex have been great! Very friendly service and checking in that the food was good for us. Great food. Thank you.

This was our first time going here and omg the food is amazing, the other half has the game mixed grill, the meat just fell off the bone of the duck, i had the fish pie, it was filled with fish and tasted amazing, I'd you have room I would definitely recommend the bakewell tart, absolutely stunning, will so be going back, food and staff are amazing

Had a great dinner here for my mum's birthday today, Sam did a great job of looking after us and making mum smile 😊

Food was very nice and service was of a high standard.

Friendly Staff Wonderful Food Beautiful View

Truly shocking food. (See photos)the kids pasta was honestly vile. Roast was mainly fat and bone and the roast potatoes were white and undercooked as well as the parsnips. We didn't stay to eat and just sent it back. We used to come here often and the food was good so im unsure what has happen. Starter of goats cheese was nice and the kids garlic bread was nice too. Staff were friendly and helpful. ( They charge £18.99 for the roast)

Very unhappy with the food today had a fish pie which was 19 lbs. 43. It was absolutely awful will never ever recommend that place. Thank you.

Excellent service and food Sam was amazing!

We had the chefs special mixed grill. It was superb! Beautifully cooked and presented. Sam was the best waiter, so enthusiastic, happy and engaging. He's a great staff member. Thank you Sam! He was also training a member of staff and showing great people skills. We're already looking forward to our next visit.

Since updating this pub. Service has got worst. The bar is all now too small for size of pub. Wait ages to be served and less selection now since revamp. Colour scheme all wrong green yuk. No Green King you got revamp all wrong yet again after the abissmal royal navy grey scheme. Gone from bad to worst. Also over hyped prices in uk pubs compared to abroad

Mo was an amazing waiter. Food was delicious and great recommendations for puddings.

Mo, Alex and Sam looked after us amazingly. Mo makes an excellent pudding! Lots of love, thanks so much x

Sam was our main waiter on a fairly late Sunday evening service... Obviously, there was a few choices by this time that the kitchen had ran out of... there was also the fact that two members of our party had nut allergies, and one had to have gluten-free (or rather non-gluten containing), least to mention the occasional picky eater. At first, the special non-gluten menu couldn't be located but Sam worked it out and managed to get a bespoke version available. There were multiple moments that Sam went the extra mile and we all couldn't be happier with his superb service and attention to detail. Thank you, Sam!

Superb customer service from Sam, nothing too much trouble - really top notch - what a star From checking our allergies and adjusting the menus for it

What a lovely evening with my family - Sam was exceptional in his client care and looking after us - really difficult group we are with many allergies and also gluten issues - Sam ensured and checked that we were all safe and went out of his way to make it excellent

Our waiter Sam was phenomenal perfect service very accommodating and went the extra mile over and over again made it a perfect night for me and my family

Brilliant service from Sam - really friendly and helpful.

Lovely location, food was great and really reasonable. The service was exemplary thanks to Sam who was really attentive and friendly.

Had a really nice lunch. Had a little wait for the food but was really nice. Our waiter Sam was so nice and friendly and would definitely come back because of him. Only down side I paid £4 for one slice of garlic bread which was a little expensive

Fab service from Sam and Isla, very friendly and made us feel welcome, thank you! Enjoyed the food too.

Very friendly team serving, quite busy on a Friday evening but a lovely place to relax and eat. Sam was our guy!

Service was incredibly slow, not to the fault of the servers, waiting 50 minutes for 3 deserts in a restaurant which appeared half full. Food was dry, I asked for a lamb and was told it would be medium rare but was so past well done I have seen softer leather. The bbq chicken dishes were okay but all in all I would not recommend many items at all from the menu… if they have them as several dishes were unavailable. Drinks were very average, nothing to complain about but nothing more than okay. Servers were kind although seemingly rushed and seen running round the restaurant trying to put out fires caused by the overall lack of quality the restaurant provided. Overall, incredibly slow service, poor food and wouldn’t not reccomend nor return.

Nice pub. As many pubs, fairly short-staffed, but adequate. Had a lovely waiter serving us (left his card for writing a review that said Sam and Alex and so not sure which of them was him, but he had pinkish hair!). Yes, the order of Seabass from the Specials menu came back as the Seabass from the general menu, which tasted fine regardless, but our waiter insisted on compensating for the error by allowing us to have an ice-cream dessert on the house - which was a very kind and appreciated offer, thank you:). Have no issue with the pub and will happily return at a later date.

Return visit for business lunch/social catch up. All fine, service great , served by Sam and Alex. Liked their approach / interaction. Will be happy to be back.

Much improved since the refit with the outdoor bar and bigger seating area. Drinks and food are about the same as before. Smoking outside seems a bit haphazard though, roaming ashtrays and you might get a whiff or two of tobacco to go with your food and drink

Really love coming here - we’re made to feel so welcome! All the staff are brilliant but a special shout out to Sam who always makes a special effort with us (& our dog!)

Superb experience at The Brittania. Sam looked after my family and I and provided great service and food. Recommended!!!

Our first visit for several years. We had booked a table for six and were shown to a table for five. When pointed out, we were offered a larger table but with a time limit! The food service was slow. We mostly ordered the Sunday lunch. The portions can only be described as small when compared to other offerings locally. The roast pork was sliced so thin it had air dried. The roast beef was excellent. The toffee pudding was also excellent. it would be worth going again just for the toffee pudding.

Beautiful food! Was pleasantly surprised. Not been before and not local so only called in on the off chance. Visited on a Wednesday lunch time, didn’t have a booking but managed to be seated straight away. Food arrived quick and it was absolutely delicious. Staff all friendly. Lovely atmosphere was busier than I expected. Lots sat outside which looked lovely!

Amazing meal - Lamb Shank shepherds pie followed by banana Biscoff ice cream - wow ! Sam was our server and was brilliant - thank you 🥇

Greatly looked after by Sam and Rebecca and superb food

The Starter, Main and Desert was delicious, The Workers were really helpful and Sam was amazing, Helpful, Polite and kind. Loved his hair! :)

Angel and sam made our family meal a pleasure, food fantastic, setting great. Excellent customer service, we really appreciated.

First timer and loved it. Food was amazing, and so was the service. Everyone was really kind and helpful, especially Sam. Loved the hair colour too :)

Not a bad experience. We would come again just a few bits let them down. Pork loin was on the dry side, the waiter was very friendly but we ordered a second round of drinks and had to chase them twice. There was also quite a delay between courses. If the service was a bit more efficient the ratings would be higher.

Been to this pub a few times for meals now and each time we have received a great service with friendly staff. Last night we were served by Mo who was exceptionally charming and professional with a witty sense of humour. We all enjoyed our meals and will definitely go back soon. Improved our dining experience

Had a lovely evening meeting up with a good friend. The food was lovely & the service was great. We were served by Sam & he was such a friendly, professional person. He was so attentive without being intrusive & genuinely went out of his way to ensure our experience was above & beyond. It’s a shame there aren’t more people like him.

Came here today to grab some food and drink, the new refurb is amazing, place and the workers are very welcoming. We were served by Mo today and he was just amazing. He made sure that our food and drinks were okay, kept checking up on us to see if we needed anything. I would give 10/10 if I could. Definitely recommend!

Just had a lovely meal, with excellent food and service. Thanks so much to Alex for the excellent service, involving the Chef to give us exactly what we wanted. Thanks to the Chef as well (sorry didn’t get your name, but much appreciated). We’ll be back.
