The Britannia in Northampton

Very good food. Morgan good, need pay rise 👍🔥

Morgan was fantastic, really good food and service

Lovely dinner, great staff especially Mo.

Amazing service from Morgan, Mo and Molly! Their attentiveness and wonderful service made our evening! We attended for my dad’s birthday and they made special arrangements for a lovely birthday surprise for him! Totally recommend!

Lovely delicious food and great service and dessert recommendation from Mo 👌🏽

Beautiful looking pub. But unfortunately the food was terrible went for the crispy chicken burger and it was so far away from crispy undercooked cold chips the service was 🫨shocking not impressed

Very nice place and the people that served us were chill

Excellent 3-course Sunday evening dinner with a roaring fire! Great service from Sam, Alex and all the team! 5 stars! 🌟

Alex and Sam were especially caring and very attentive

We had a wonderful family Sunday dinner here with mixed Vegans Veggies and Carnivores. The rib of beef was amazing, it just melted in the mouth. The service was excellent, thanks to Sam and Alex for looking after us all so well. We will most definitely be back.

Amazing environment thanks for making my birthday meal and party good time thank you

Arrived on Saturday for breakfast. Must say it was very quiet but have to say the welcome was very warm from the landlord Clayton who showed us to our table. Ordered the full English breakfast and asked for the bacon to be really well done (which it was). Everything on the plate was so fresh and perfectly cooked. I have often asked for poached eggs which come out like bullets but not in this case, they were perfect !! If you are looking for the perfect breakfast then look no further than The Brittania. Oh and just priced fairly at £10.99. What’s not to like. ?

Alex and Sam were our servers this evening, not only were they welcoming, they were also attentive. Good food, great service.

Food and service really nice, Morgan was 10/10 would recommend :)

We visited for lunch. Even though we hadn't booked, they found us a table quickly and reminded us to book our cars in. Friendly service. Our chips did arrive cold but that was soon rectified without a problem. Good service and a discount for the chips issue. Always a nice atmosphere and with the service and food we had, we will definitely visit again soon. Would recommend.

Lovely nearly refurbished pub, which maintains it's old character. The food has always been delicious and good portions. The staff is always welcoming and accommodating. Highly recommend.

Lovely food, great service from Alex and Mo.

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

Food was good, service polite and efficient. Always accommodate me turning up without booking and still get to eat. It’s a busy place however I think this speaks to its quality charm and general character. Drinks aplenty and not overly expensive. All in all it’s a nice place to eat and drink. I’ve been here several times now and it’s been consistently good.

Great lunch with workmates - had a colleague over from New York and Sam made sure she had a great experience for her first British pub visit.

I have the vegetable tart from the lunch menu, sounded lovely however it was microwaved and was cold! Had the Bakewell tart! That was cold too! Not cooked properly! Cup of tea, water was lukewarm. This is the second time I have been during lunchtime and both times have been cold! Won’t be going again! Greggs pastry is better!

Just had a lovely family meal, food was good pub grub.Shout out to the great staff, so attentive and managed our large table with ease. So friendly and nothing was too much trouble with them

Really nice brunch , everything came out quickly, hot , freshly cooked, very tasty sausage, the bacon was cooked to my liking, even the kids breakfast was quite a big meal. Other items on the menu also looked nice. Will be back again soon.

Lovely ambience in the pub, the fire was on and warm and cosy. Food was great and the staff friendly and courteous.

Very nice meal warm and comfortable surroundings, enjoyable experience .

We're not big eaters and Morgan accommodated this for us. The food was lovely and the beer was great. The ambience of the place was really relaxing. We 100% would recommend The Britannia and will definitely be back. Thank you

The whole family had a meal there, everyone enjoyed the food the staff was very accommodating and friendly the meals all arrived at the same time which was quite a feat so yeah very much enjoyable and recommended well done guys the only thing was it is a little bit pricey but hey that me coming all the way from Yorkshire. Seriously nice little pub

burns night meal first class. 5*****+ food , service great from SARAH, note to pub manager she is good worker. very polite and happy in her work. A CREDIT TO YOU. deffo a keeper. peter nolan letts T/A

Cosy decor inside, lovely view of the canal outside, staff are always pleasant and food is always very tasty. I would recommend booking if you plan on going at peak times.

Haven’t been here for years the food was excellent and Jake who looked after us was very friendly and helpful , what a lovely young man .

I'm currently away from home with work and was really pleased with the customer service at the Brittania I was served by Sam his customer service along with the food was excellent

Friendly staff and good food. Thanks Sam!

Jake and Claire were especially nice 10/10 would go again

I Enjoyed my time at Britannia, the staff were really welcoming and friendly, they sat me down straight away, they gave me suggestions on what to eat as I’m a fussy eater. The food was sensational and really well cooked. Would definitely be back and recommend to my friends

The most difficult choice was what to eat, such a good variety. I was served by Jake, he was very helpful and curteous.

Had a lovely birthday meal with family, food was delicious and was looked after extremely well by Claire and the team, new to the area and the purple had lots to offer. We will be back! 🥰

Poor == UPDATE - January 2025 == Booked for a Sunday lunch here, as my preference - the Rose and Crown at Yardley Hastings - was booked up. My suggestion to you is to book the Rose and Crown further in advance.

Fantastic pub and atmosphere. Lovely food and drinks. Great value for money. Claire, the assistant manager was exceptional in her service and made us feel really welcome. She couldn’t do enough for us.

The place was almost empty. Never a good sign! Our party had one starter and three mains. My starter ( £7) was two hard toasts with two small mushrooms with a tablespoon of single cream sauce. Most uninspiring and no taste to boot! My daughter had the chicken (£17)that was way overcooked and dry, failer two. My wife had the hand battered fish and chips (£20) the fish was frozen, tasteless with a terrible soggy batter and the scampy ( £2-50) was tasteless too. I had the steak pie (£18) which looked impressive until you opened it up and the meat was fatty with one undercooked calebrese and one overcooked. Not forgetting the hard peas of course. All the meals came with low quality oven type chips. Obviously they don't employ a proper chef but still want to charge premium prices. If you want this quality of food just pop up the road to the Queen Eleanor you will save at least 50%. We didn't bother with sweets as we thought freshly cooked food well done was beyond this place! Left never to return and would advice anyone else to give it a wide berth!

It was ok the soup was nice The staff were very polite and helpful,and the manager was also very helpful..

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.

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.

New landlady has made a big difference here, food is good and service is good.

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

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!)

Lovely relaxing meal with the family. Great service from Sam who was very helpful. We will definitely be back.

We went to the Britannia for our lunch on Christmas Day. It was perfect in every way, from the attentiveness of the staff, the amazing food and the beautiful decor complete with roaring log fire.

My father popped in for a drink, found the service to be very good and wanted to share a review about how he was made to feel welcome without judgement. He was looked after by Sam, Angel and Ollie from the kitchen, and found the experience to beyond his expectations!

Staff attentive and for a person with dietary requirements they went above and beyond

Came here for a Boxing Day meal was told we could have normal menu and was told last minute we had to have festive menu… meals came and vegetables weren’t editable rock solid the kids meals were missing items didn’t even get an apology… when it come to the desserts they didn’t have all tht was advertised and what came was underwhelming Christmas pudding was more like fruit cake and kids ice cream was again missing items… drinks took 15 mins to come and it weren’t even busy… very disappointing

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

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

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

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.

Lovely place and kind waiter Sam's and Kayla

Sam and Kayla both very kind and professional

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

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!

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 :)

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!

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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!!!

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

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.

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.

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 😊

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

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.

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

Nice food, good quality for money and decent staff

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

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
