The Old Bank in Northampton

This ornate historic bar is great for meet-ups situated in the centre of town has a great atmosphere considering the size of the place great food and service worth popping in 🍷

Great place and fabulous atmosphere. The staff where super helpful

Well what can I say the food was amazing I had steak pie and mash and peas well worth the money but I couldn’t eat all I was full cause you get big portion the staff were very helpful and pleasant and the pub it selfs is big and there’s lots on offer will be returning

had been here a couple of times with my uni friends, my last experience was the worst. It was my graduation day, i was with my family - there was about 5 of us . An alcoholic drink was ordered to the table but due to me not having my ID on hand the drink was taken away from me, notable mention i was standing in my cap and gown … i can’t possibly be under 18 and they didn’t want to accept a photo of my ID either. when trying to explain that it was my literal graduation, they did not care. definitely ruined the vibe. Now obviously my family were going to order drinks for me so i got them in the end and I'm sure they would have guessed that so there was no need for the theatrics to begin with. definitely leaves a sour memory of my graduation day

Huge pub! Very wellll decorated and maintained. Staff were really friendly and service was very good. Food was fresh, well cooked and well presented. Prices were very reasonable.

First time back in 7 years since moving away still a very pleasant well maintained bar ...was only starting to fill as we were moving on

Came for a late lunch, the staff were attentive and the food was lovely, they have a nice lunch deal on at the moment, definitely worth checking out, this place never fails to disappoint :)

“A Wonderful Sunday Lunch at The Old Bank, Northampton” Had a fantastic Sunday lunch at The Old Bank in Northampton. The food was delicious, perfectly cooked, and full of flavor. The atmosphere was warm and welcoming, and the staff were attentive and friendly. It was the perfect place to enjoy a relaxing meal with great company. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a lovely Sunday dining experience! Will definitely be back

Great place to meet friends, good food, pleasant atmosphere n friendly staff. Would come back if we were in the area, well done

I visited the bar this week for a drink. The bar is clean and welcoming and the barmaid was friendly. Very quiet as I visited on a weekday afternoon, was told by staff that it’s very busy on football days.

Johnny was brilliant help great customer service

We are regular visitors to the old bank Northampton. Every time we go into Northampton town centre we always pay a visit to the old bank and they are always so accommodating. The bar staff are absolutely lovely and very polite. Everything we ordered was in stock and we weren’t waiting long for our food. I visited with my partner , our 19 month old daughter and our close friend from Birmingham. I will always recommend the old bank for a place for good food and good atmosphere. We also noticed they have a new Photo Booth which I think is really neat! Can’t thank the staff enough <3

Very polite and helpful staff. Will visit again.

States clearly on google and your website open till 2am on Friday nights, if that's the case why do you stop allowing people in at 12.45am? 1 hour 15 mins before closing? I could understand 30 mins before closing but 1 hour 15 mins before closing? Plus saw them close at 1.30 last night despite it clearly stating open till 2am, just being lazy and finding any excuse to close early as they don't want to work the extra 30 mins.

Good food, very friendly staff.

First visit, pleasantly surprised, enjoyed it with my friends visiting from SA

Really good food, lovely staff and great environment! We come here regularly when visiting family in Northampton as it’s such a ‘good value for money’ option and has something for everyone. The staff are attentive and couldn’t do more to help. The decor is great and really encompasses the diverse local history of Northampton. In an easy location to get to with parking nearby. Will always come back!

Boxing day meal with family .Absolutely loved it. Food was hot bar Staff were great .Thoroughly loved my lunch day out well done guys

Nice place to spend time with your friends, good music and very tasty cocktails! 🍹🎶🎉

Not as busy as when I last went in it - 20 years ago - good to see it's still going 😀

Beautiful fish and chips, better than the chip shop, thank you Tracey 😊, fantastic service, so tentative.

Bit overwhelming in terms of the environment but Johnny showed us to a more quieter corner and was a great server

Thanks a lot to Johnny for giving the best service with our large group christmas dinner and helping us change tables when it didn't cater to us! :)

We had a wonderful time at The Old Bank for our Christmas meal! Johnny was our server and he was super friendly and accommodating to our accessibility needs. We'll definitely be back in the new year!

Lovely atmosphere but toilets minging

Comfortable and friendly and brilliant staff 👌

The Old Bank in Northampton is a vibrant spot with a great atmosphere, tasty food, and an attentive team. Well worth a visit!

I have no complaints about the food, service or atmosphere. BUT the toilets are disgusting. They smell of sewage and have toilets with seats that aren’t fitted. They are filthy with toilet roll everywhere with soaking wet floors. Such a shame that this lets the place down so badly. Absolutely no need for it at all. Plus if you look back at old reviews this has been going on for years so clearly nothing is ever going to be done about it. Unhygienic and vile!

Callum and Becky are delightful! Good service and with a smile 😊. I’ll defo be back for some more Sauvignon Blanc. Paige x

The Old Bank in Northampton is an absolute gem! The atmosphere is vibrant yet welcoming, making it the perfect spot for a night out or a casual drink. The staff are incredibly friendly and attentive, ensuring every visit feels special. The drinks menu is extensive, offering something for everyone, and the cocktails are simply divine. The decor blends modern style with a cosy charm, creating an environment that’s both chic and comfortable. I can’t recommend this place enough – it’s a must-visit in Northampton!

Perfect choice of beer and cider. Goidd food. Lot of place.

Excellent courteous and friendly service. Very nice pleasant people working there. The food was very good. Best sticky toffee pudding ever and the lovely steak and ale pie could have fed two people. All at a very reasonable price. Whenever we are in Northampton, that's where we will finish up.

Nice big pub with two maybe three pool tables.

What a brilliant pub! And gorgeous too. You can really feel the history of the old building in the decor. And the christmas decorations were spectacular! We just popped in for some lunch on our way through Northampton and it was a great choice to stop at… although we are not local to Northampton we will be returning every time we are near… the food was lovely and great value for money. And the festive items that we had such as the festive burger and pigs in blankets were so good. The perfect thing to put you in the christmas spirit

We visited this place to celebrate my wife birthday and they took care us in such a lovely way thank you. Service and staff was awesome. Thank you guys for the wonderful service and beeing friendly. This is the must visit pub. Hope to see you guys again.

Lovely friendly staff, thoroughly enjoyed our meal and my partner was very pleased with his pint of Guinness.

Best club and pub in Northampton ! if you are looking to eat delicious food and then great music and fun! Then you are looking for this place Old Bank!!! Mega atmosphere and service!!! Mega music! And above all you can feel safe ❤️ Love you Guys!

I went there with my wife and toddler to have lunch. Great customer service and food. We liked the katsu chicken and the carrot cake.

Great place, good food with efficient service. The staff is always nice 😉

Brilliant service! The bar staff that served me were class!! Talkative, attentive, charming! 10/10 would drink again!!

Popped in for dinner and a pint and received excellent service with a smile. Jonny was particularly attentive, lovely guy who made sure we were happy with our food. Would defo recommend the bbq chicken and halloumi and sweet chilli wrap ☺️

amazing service, great food and a lovely atmosphere!! 10/10 would recommend for food and drink and to hang out with friends or go solo. the staff are very friendly and sweet :)

Went here for drinks with a group of friends. Lovely atmosphere, great drinks and staff were friendly and welcoming. 10/10 recommend

We went on Saturday after for coming from mk to see some friends for there birthday was nice and busy and music was good outside and in.

Video cameras in the toilet they break privacy time visit court

Changed the bitter to an IPA and didn't turn the football sound up despite saying they would. Had 2 pints and left

Nice place to chill meet friends. Not fan of the food but the atmosphere great door staff are nice and friendly

Called in for lunch, only one person serving behind the bar and serving meals. Ordered drinks and a sandwich and side order of fries. The farmhouse bread wasn't very fresh, had no butter and the side dish of fries contained 10 fries . The pub was quite dark inside.

Called in for a bite to eat before saints v harlequins Service was excellent, pleasant, and efficient. The food was so so, the scampi was a poor choice but it filled the gap and the atmosphere for an early evening was good

Had a lovely meal and staff very helpful

Great staff, great ambience and lovely huge bar area and garden…BUT disgusting toilets. Everything broken, flies everywhere, awful smell, no regular hourly/daily cleaning, no deep cleaning for months. I wonder what the kitchen conditions are like?!? Serious refurb of toilets required and cleaning rota.

Old bank style, great atmosphere

Lovely staff, especially one called Ryan from what I can remember, and a great atmosphere!

Great pub. Amazing food - kaarage sticky chicken was delicious! All tasted fresh. Bar staff were amazing as well.

Can you sort your smelly filthy toilets out and put something safe for women. I have photos. I'll put them.up next time.

Thank you to all at the Old Bank for helping to make my wife's 70th Birthday

me and my friend went here for drinks a while back and honestly it's very demure, very mindful and definitely recommend also wolverine and Deadpool were on the date.. plus the bartender was lowkey cute

Took our daughter and her friend here on Saturday evening for dinner. Genuinely a nice Greene King pub with plenty of choice of Ales and Spirits. We had a table booked for 7.30pm and initially we were surprised the kitchen closed at 8pm on a Saturday night. However the barman was quick to let us know we needed to get our food ordered before the kitchen closed. There was a limited choice of food and several dishes were already sold out which restricted our options further, but the 3 burgers and steak pie ordered were a good hearty choice. The staff were all very helpful throughout our service. It did get a bit loud as there were two separate hen parties in the pub at the same time, both trying to out sing each other. We decided to leave at this point, but as previously mentioned on the whole a good British pub.

Had a lovely light meal (sandwiches and wine) - excellent value in an interesting and pleasant environment. We particularly appreciated our server, Johnny, who was very efficient - but more importantly, made us laugh and ensured that it a really good experience for us.

Always great food whenever we go, great service by Johnny today. It's nice in the lunch hour period as it's quite quiet.

Bit quiet in here but always live sitting in the garden. Friendly staff and good menu when you want to eat.

The food was amazing and the drinks were incredible the atmosphere was very relaxing and I enjoyed my visit would go again

Came in for a Sunday evening pint with a mate, had the best steak I’ve had in a while! Johnny provided fantastic service throughout and really took care of our food. Good selection of alcohol - something for everyone! Central location in town makes it a great pitstop on the way back from work.

I can’t recommend this place enough! The staff are amazing and more importantly they really look after guests. I’ve recently had to use the “ask for Angela” service after a very bad date.Ask for Angela is a fantastic way to help people experiencing worrying dates. If you feel in danger, ask staff to “call angela” The bar staff were spot on and made sure I was safe and got me a cab and home safe. Denise is a brilliant manager that really cares for her guests safety.

Very nice people and helpful thanks to all

I have visited this establishment on several occasions and have always found the staff friendly, inviting, and helpful, especially Denise.

Myself and my daughter visited the old Bank Saturday 10.8.24 for some lunch, met with bearded barman, who had an outstanding personality, also very officiant new his job really went out of his way to look after us, really liked him, enjoyed our stay, will definitely return.x

Big place. Can feel dead in the late afternoon. Possibly better atmospheric over the weekend. Decent steak and ale pie.

Very odd day to visit Northampton, actually thought it was half day closing!! But nope just the result of bored youth and miss information. However the welcome and the service was top notch and the food was excellent. Would def recommend this pub if you are visiting Northampton. Thank you to all staff working on Wednesday 7th August 2024.

Went in for some grub, left with a smile! Fish and Chips are FANTASTIC! Added some curry sauce to my dinner and had to stick around for some desert too! ! Tried a cocktail called a Bumbu Storm and I HAD to treat myself to another! Highly recommend for some grub and a tipple!!!!!!!!!!

Went for a night out and then came for lunch the next day the way that the pub changes in just a night is insane. I appreciate all bartenders and give them the respect that they give me. The old bank is the way to go whether its for food or a night out i highly recommend old bank. The food is spectacular I was not expecting such fantastic food. Thank you to the amazing staff who never fail to give a perfect serve.

Absolutely amazing! Blown away by the brilliant service and tasty IPA! Served by a lovely blonde lady and a kind tall young man with piercings

Could do with a lift to go up stairs so when you have a wedding party there you can get a wheelchair up there

Fantastic pub , great atmosphere, good food/ drinks at reasonable prices and above all excellent customer service especially with Johnny ** chefs kiss**

Food is fabulous! Atmosphere is great, service by Johnny (post malone) was incredible!

Lovely afternoon, food and jonny the barman was on top form 5*

Johnny was very helpful and friendly. Nice to have service with a smile!

Awesome time, had the bbq chicken with a phenomenal beer cheese sauce. Served by Rebecca who was very friendly and attentive. All in all a great time and awesome meal

Excellent service, Johnny was courteous and helpful throughout our visit and the food was fantastic

Went in for a fish and chips and it was lovely and the pints are always very lively. Service is fantastic. Thank you Old Bank

Drove all the way from Birmingham to meet friends and the bar neglected to tell us food stopped at 7. Mid week what kind of place stops serving food at 7. Sadly, a quick mention of this would've helped given wed travelled over an hour for food. Not thrilled at all

The Old Bank Northampton is a pub that really meets expectations, this review is about all the staff and how well i think they are in my opinion as i notice that they are all very close with each other, there are new staff that i did not recognise but they are so lovely and still get on with the regular staff. Johnny is a funny lad to talk to he always brings a smile on customers faces, there is one woman that i do not know the name of but she is a really lovely woman, she also likes to joke around with customers i believe i heard another bar staff call her Beckie, Emma is one of the quiet bar staff but she still is a lovely woman to talk to, I believe one of the new staffs name is Callum, he is a little like Johnny he is funny to talk to and he seems to care about the customers when serving them, Maisey (i think her name is) is a lovely girl who is sweet to everyone, Chloe is a lovely girl and she helped another customer out along with Callum when they were asked if they know where any other clubs are. If you want a good night out with great customer service then The Old Bank Northampton is 100% the place to go, the food is great, the staff are great, and the pub is very clean, i have noticed that the staff make sure that tables are wiped after every use.

Very friendly and helpful staff, great atmosphere and homely feel. Food was lovely even the kids menu Nice size garden, will be visiting again.

Great food! Guinness well poured. The service was solid and the overall experience was nice. Overall would visit again.

Atmosphere was great came to watch the football, Johnny and Shyann are great staff

I ordered their steak rare with a red wine gravy. I was heavily disappointed when the steak arrived chopped into little pieces, and was burnt and over cooked. The “red wine gravy” was just bisto and the tomatoes were raw. No grill whatsoever. My boyfriend enjoyed his katsu burger and Japanese chicken so that’s good. But definitely wouldn’t recommend the steak. Atmosphere was cosy and service was good though so that’s my only fault.

Always a great atmosphere! The staff are brilliant and attentive and make you feel welcome/at home

We came for the theatre to see sister act, the bar staff were very attentive and lovely, We bought our drinks and ordered our food, the staff were very helpful when we told them we had an allergy, they got the correct menus and an allergy tablet so we could look for ourselves :) The food came nice and quick, portions were good and the food was piping hot, it left us enough time to have a dessert too! We will definitely be returning!

friendly atmosphere , great food and good prices. will be back again 😁

We went in for a couple of drinks. Nice place.

Very tasty food, enjoyed pie so much and very lovely staff! Highly recomend, worth visiting!

Staff very friendly and well- presented. They clearly enjoy their 'job'. Good food options, just right for a pre- theatre dinner. Close to Royal and Dengate so a perfect pre- theatre stop.

It used to be a great place. People told me it wasn't, I just wanted to play darts. After tonight, with Mark who supposedly runs it, trust me, go somewhere else. As the landlord will be after what he did to me. And if you want to know the rest, email me or ask anyone in Kingsley park.it has lost so many customers since the change over, and its loosing more. And I will deter anyone I speak to from going there now. Even aftethe £££sss I spent in there. And i will post bad reviews weekly

The old bank is a great place to hangout with people staff are fantastic, its a great place to go on a night out and all together i just love going to the old bank northampton. The vegan nuggies are mwah fantastic.

The food was great and the staff was super friendly.

Amazing location with an amazing set up!

An amazing service and team. Booked out tables for a large party as we're in the area for business and the team on tonight has been super friendly and accommodating. Everything ran efficiently. Food came out quick and hot and all round great service.

Amazing Atmosphere, And good service from the staff on my birthday 🎂 🥰

Amazing people. Staff and managers are always attentive. Lovely atmosphere from day to night. Always good vibes

Love the bar staff, price are unreal and the cibes are fab 10/10 will be coming back
