The Priory in Wellingborough

Danielle and Albert were lovely and worked arse off to make our visit satisfactory

Good food and plenty of parking

Decided to drop in one weekend afternoon, it wasnt overly busy in there , there were several people waiting to order at the bar. Eith one member of staff old enough to serve working. Stood there for 10 minutes, by now I would have left but other half is insistant it will take just as long else where. So rather than get a drink first and then order food we head to a table and Discover you can do it all online. Feeling smug as people drift up to the bar and wait to order we place ours. 15 minutes after ordering our drinks, one cider and one coke arrive! 15 minutes later so does the food. I'm not sure how you can mess a steak up but they had a good go at it,not sure what oil they used to cook it but really wasn't needed. It was that unremarkable a meal I have just asked my better half what she had and she said I can't remember it was something chicken but it wasn't the best. When food is forgettable it's neither that bad or that good. But the prices are starting to get to the stupid side of cheap dining. Atmosphere inside was dead Main thing was the lack of staff over 18 and service at the bar. It shouldn't take that long to get your drinks or food when they are not that busy. Not somewhere I would drop in on again.

Lovely atmosphere and great food. Good idea to book.

Excellent value food. Always at least one real ale available. Friendly and helpful staff.

The staff are always welcoming, and the food is good for the price. It’s a lovely, welcoming local pub.

Lovely little place. First time visit. Nice staff, food and a large outdoor area - they even have nice weather here! 😂

Went there for the bottomless breakfast with friends, and all of us filled our belly with one plate only. We all were famished on arrival, and we were surprised that we ate way less than if we were eating home alone.

Been going this pub for years. Went breakfast yesterday. Was there for when it opened. Will keep this simple. Staff extremely not interested Food was cold. How can that be when just opened. Bacon under cooked sloppy. Coffee machine was only giving have a cup of coled coffee. Won't be going back

Amazing food cooked amazingly Staff all so friendly Play area for the kids to burn off their energy and garden to sit and relax in especially with warmer weather

Great service, very friendly environment

Albert’s a proper geeza, nothing was to much of an ask, always smiling and cracking jokes

This is a busy place but love it. Team are so friendly and helpful. Well done Nicola and Jess They were raising money for Homeless veterans such a great charity. Hope you raised loads girls

I've been there a few times now and I have to say not only is it value for money, a fun and happy atmosphere and professional and friendly service, the food is amazing, the staff are amazing and the softplay area is amazing for kids as well!

Loving the new drinks menu! The cocktails are perfect in the sun!

Lovely staff, had the hunters chicken and my partner had the sweet chilli chicken, cooked to perfection

I was served by Pheobe on Tues and she was so polite and kind and delievered food quickly and efficiently - food was great and place was great!

We love coming here, the team are fabulous and very welcoming, especially jess and Albert! The sizzling app is also great for offers

Love the food and the service here. The regular barman is especially handsome. Too bad his new glasses make him look 50.

Lovely meal with friends, staff were very attentive, no complaints at all. Will definitely recommend!!

great place lovely food great staff!

Food is very nice, staff are amazing, they always come and check up on us to see if everything is okay. Very good priced and amazing atmosphere. Would definetly recommend.

Food and service were both amazing - Jess, Albert and Cameron were particularly welcoming and very helpful!

Always come to the Priory when we have a family gathering. As always food was fabulous and the team always welcoming and efficient

Cheap and cheerful. Food was ok. Fairly priced for what it is. Service was good apart from the older lady who just plonked a mug with a hot chocolate sachet in it down on the table and grunted that the coffee machine was round the corner. I know the hot chocolate is cheap but the delivery could have been better.

Nice play area. Lovely and helpful staff, especially Raven and Emily! So kind, so attentive to details and positive! Had a nice party for my son!

Came Mother’s Day, I had a traditional carvery and my son chicken nuggets and chips, there was plenty on the plate for my son to enjoy. The kids meal came prompt. There was plenty of meat carved up and plenty of extras to choose from which were cooked lovely. Pub was clean and so was the soft play and son always enjoys it in there. The worker in there kept on top of the balls being out of the ball pit and kept the rest of the area tidy.

Food had lots of flavour and prices wasn't to over priced. Was told would be a wait. Which i didn't mind. How ever food didn't take long at all. Will be going back

ALBERT was outstanding 👏 he was like a 1 man band, serving at the bar, being stopped by people asking for things, bringing out food, showing people to their table and always had a smile, always polite with no huffing or puffing and was very obliging. He gave 110 % and should be acknoledged and rewarded.

Would like to say a massive thank you and give recognition to Albert for his hard work. 👏🏻 Albert was extremely helpful and always happy even though he seemed to be doing more than one person's job! He was serving at the bar, welcoming and seating guests, as well as waiting on the tables! Also seeing to any customers that were asking questions or requesting additional items etc. He also took the time to check on us to make sure we were happy with our food and ask if we needed anything else. He then cleared our table for us so we weren't sat around dirty plates. A very friendly and polite hard worker who deserves recognition and rewarded!

Fast, efficient and friendly staff and the food was outstanding. I will definitely eat here again.

Had a fabulous carvery So fresh and team were lovely Well maintained and clean Busy but not overly cramped Will definitely be back

We ordered the house sharer starter. The mushrooms and onion rings were so inedible we didn't bother ordering a mains or desert as planned. The staff did offer to recook but I just felt we would be wasting our money if a basic starter wasn't up to scratch. Staff are very friendly, atmosphere was quiet and subdued so ok for a mature outing.

Staff are friendly and helpful. I have a wheat allergy celiac, I have eaten there a quite a few times and never had problems with the food. Went with my family, couples of them had a cavery which they enjoyed. I like the sizzlers, always hot and tasty. Definitely recommend the food 👌 😋. Value for money.

Breakfast is not worth going for. Food was all cold, tomatos tastes like water and the staff are rude and uninterested in having any form of interaction

Lovely lunchtime meal, with my elderly father, cannot wait to return, lovely staff nice environment 👍

Nice clean establishment. The buffet breakfast is excellent.

Enjoyed a nice lunchtime meal here the other day, very helpful staff with swapping item out, also told me ext time what i can eat safely.

Fantastic new menu, and great drinks as always! We love coming here! , it’s our favourite place to relax & dine , staff are all fantastic!

Lovely friendly service. Great selection and lovely food. Staff were helpful and friendly and the premises clean. W as a late birthday meal for my partner and we both thoroughly enjoyed our food.

Perfect pub! The sweet chilli chicken is amazing!! Thank you Nicola, Jess & Danny.

We had pork tomahawk was absolutely lovely beautifuly cooked and so tasty. Lovely friendly fast service. Will definitely be back

Had a fantastic Tuesday evening at The Priority with my family! Warm and welcoming atmosphere, friendly staff, and delicious food. Great drinks selection and a lively yet relaxed vibe. Highly recommend—will definitely be back!

Absolutely love it here!!! The team are always so friendly and welcoming. A huge thank you to the manageress for being so understanding and catering to our special requests, what a super star you are! You and the team are a true asset to the Priory

Always a warm welcome, food is such good value love coming here

Went for lunch food was lovely staff very friendly would definitely recommend

We came here for Sunday lunch. We’ve been a few times and have always been happy. But this time it wasn’t a good experience and due to this we won’t be returning. The manager was very rude to us and the way she spoke to her staff was awful. I did try to make a complaint but was just ignored. We were made to feel very unwelcome. I would strongly suggest people go somewhere else for a family meal where they will be more welcome

Sunday carvery was good. 1 steak had to be sent back twice. Gammon was a bit tough. Would go back but just got a carvery

today we got service by Albert on the 27th march he is a lovely lad and very attentive. they don’t do Irish coffee but they can do a different way of doing it but you also get unlimited coffee in the price. thank you to the chefs and all foh, we will be back :)

My Mom and I had a good afternoon at the Priory for lunch. Great service and lovely food 👍

Amazing food staff lovely had lovely food was very good

On arrival parking was plenty, It was a Sunday and quite busy but they found a table for the 2 of us. They do a Sunday Carvery, which did look pretty inviting, but we just went for something on the menu. Food and drink were ordered at the bar. Wait for the food wasn't too long, I had the Curry feast, and the wife had Chilli Halloumi, both meals were very nice. This place has quite a large table capacity. It has a play area and an outside section. I personally didn't think the prices were too bad compared to some places.

Their breakfasts are also excellent. Excellent Sunday lunch there today.

Food was lovely. Good variety of choices on the new menu. Sharon and the other staff are brilliant 👍

Jess and Jamie, fantastic as always! All of the staff are very welcoming and always at hand to help

10/10 i loved it. food was great, service was even better!!!! Great waitress Phoebe S on sunday

Danielle is greatwith service and plit

Fantastic breakfast. Service is always good. Great price!

Had the most enjoyable time at the priory, good food and a fun quiz hosted by Albert

Excellent friendly venue. Staff are very accommodating and friendly. Large variety of food choices. Food was lovely. Will be back for sure! Keep up the good work 😊

Menu is better than food that arrived. I had pie and mash but mash was poor and pie had little filling. Peas cold. I couldn’t eat it all even though was hungry. Partners food was nowhere as good. Limp cold chips and burger was small. The difference between our portions were significant for same price, partner had way less food. There was no atmosphere as diners spread so thin across pub. I know we didn’t pay a fortune but what we got was less than I’d expect from a bargain basement food van at a car boot. We have decided it’s a no go for breakfast or meals now.

We came for a meeting and decided to stay for lunch after and try the new menu! Pork Tomahawk cooked to absolute perfection will definitely be having this again Nicola very welcoming and recommended the new dish and Hannah very lovely and checking up on us to make sure everything is ok, perfect visit

Very pleasant, ideal for a family meal, not too expensive. Carvery was lovely , although a little bit on the cold side, understandable due to waiting for others to fill their plates! Staff were very pleasant and welcoming. Enjoyable afternoon. We outstayed our given time slot and this was not a problem . Thank you

To be fair it's proper value for money.. No complaints from me

Food was really nice. Good selection and reasonable price.

Me and my family came here last night for a meal honestly the meal was ever so great, 1 had a burger couldn't remember what it was called 2 had the mixed grill 1 had the mega mixed grill and scampi and chips the onion rings were wonderful the drinks especially the Coors was very nice then 3 had Cadbury Sundae and 1 had chocolate brownie, the whole night was very nice and I'd definete consider returning here in the future, highly recommended, thanks very much

Price point, venue and staff were all friendly. Some of the food was a bit hit and miss but in general was ok. Food also took quite a while to come out, nearly an hour is quite a long time.

Perfect place to spend time with the family for dinner or lunch. The breakfast is also delicious. Fuzzy Edds is a very good place for the kids to play, especially with the cold weather outside.

Booked a table, early slot, thought that we may get better service being early. We were put in the function room that has seen better days. Holes in the walls, sellotape and blue tak randomly around the room, Christmas decorations still up, telly not on, no music, chipped paint, cold and dark. Very odd atmosphere. Not sure why we were stuck in there, masses of empty tables in nicer parts of the restaurant. Which were still empty when we left hours later. Waited ages for the second course to come out over cooked and only just warm. The wine offer was out of stock, which was the main reason for coming. Cole was flat. We couldn’t use the voucher on the app, so had to queue up and order with a very grumpy lady, that never smiled once. We won’t bother coming back, we will save the petrol and I wish we had gone to Toby carvery instead!

Went here for Sunday morning buffet breakfast. It was packed but the food is nice

When we walked in, we had to queue at the bar to tell them that we had even arrived, there was no one around to seat us, no sign to say go to the bar, very poor. We were then shoved on a round table with a high chair, and another chair wedged in at the end, it simply did not fit, we should never have been placed on this table. There isn't much service here so would not comment on that, all the people we saw were lovely however you do everything yourself. The food itself was okay, no complaints there. The problems really began when we attempted to take our 1 year old into the play area. Firstly, we were allowed in when it was so clearly overran, there is no way that having that many people in there was safe. There was also people allowed to drink alcohol, this is a children's play area. There were also people shouting and swearing, clearly intoxicated and the 3 girls who were working in there were clearly out of their depth. This was not a safe environment for children.

App means service slick but impersonal. Food a bit lacking flavour across various dishes. Sizzling chicken overdone, curry platter not very hot.All fine just not very inspiring

Nice place to eat and have a drink with friendly service. Good prices for the food and bar. Refillable coffee/tea.

Met Albert, who was very attentive. He managed to book us in for a dinner Sunday at very short notice. Lovely man so friendly. Food lovely. Sunday roast...gorgeous, just like home made. We will be back again most definitely. Lisa & Mark x

Staff were super friendly and very professional and the food was lovely, the only thing that's needed is new toasters as these ones are very well used

This is just another 5 Stars for our go to Eatery The Priory. As normal Fish & Chips with mushy peas, outstanding as always batter so crispy and the fish hot moist, it was as always Amazing. Then this time we had our favourite treat of Desert Chocolate Fudge Cake and Ice Cream and I always have the Cadbury Chocolate Sundae. I will try and add some photos. Sharon made us feel welcome, and the chef was excellent and was the waitress who served us. In short, our go to location 100%.

Always available for good, quick food, friendly service, Typical M&B house, take your "Sizzle" app along for a little off...

Today 5.07.2020 me a and the boss otherwise known as the wife went for a meal at the priory. We had booked we were met at the door. On entering there was sanitizer and the new layout was explained to us. We were shown to our table and it was table service. We were given the menu and ordered drinks. Once we ordered our food it didn't take long to come and we both enjoyed our meals. If you smoke you can go into the garden and toilets are in use both ends of the priory there are separate entrance and exit doors there is sanitizer every where I would recommend a visit they have done all they can to make it carona safe and the food was great enjoy.

Good range of Beers. Friendly staff. Reasonable prices for food

Nice place for kids, not many items on the menu, not even coffe when we been last time

Yuk food. Stinks inside and sticky carpets.

Really need to do drinks order from other till than the food till

So during the week a bite to eat here is fine. However, the carvery is in a league of its own. Limited veg options (pretty empty pots) A portion of stuffing from the chef is dry and smaller than small. Roast potatoes had cooked gave up and didn't cook the otherside. A roast dinner is as good as the preparation and clearly they had no time to do so.

Wasn't overly impressed! Been going here since they opened, admittedly not been for a few months..... There was a big crowd of us. So we had to reserve. The food was mediocre, 3 of the adults wanted the sirloin steak but they didn't have any. No mention of this when we checked in! The menu change wasn't very impressive, there was actually nothing on the menu that I fancied! It was very dark, the lights were so low. So we even struggled to read the menu. There was no toilet roll in the ladies! I don't think I'll be going back any time soon.

Went out on a little lunch date - the food was hot, well presented and there was a reasonable wait time. You order at the bar or via the app which is more ideal instead of waiting to be spotted by a server. Also have a blue light card discount.

No complaints here, nice beer and food followed by a Thursday quiz - can't beat it

We came for breakfast really good for money but what a chef we'll done all cooked well and tell irs freshly cooked well done chef

Nice pub. Food is nice and hot well presented. Definitely worth a visit.

Everything was great. The food was fantastic and the staff were all friendly. Another great Christmas Day dinner.

Service quick,friendly staff & lovely food

We was staying in the Travelodge next door so called in Albert the gentleman that served us was amazing couldn't do enough for us so friendly we would recommend this place to anyone Food excellent Service excellent Staff Amazing

Had a burger and an excellent fresh salad.

Stopped off on the way to Northampton for a meal. Steady if not spectacular pub geared up for dining. Well presented with plenty of different seating options. Usual selection of drinks and an extensive food menu. All seems reasonably priced and what we chose was all good quality. Service was quick and friendly. Would definitely use this pub or one from the same chain again. And if Sizzling Pubs would like to open in Peterborough that would be great 🙂

My husband and I stopped in on the spur of the moment for Sunday lunch. I remembered they had a carvery. Despite being really full and quite a few tables booked we were able to find an empty one. The carvery was delightful and the portion of meat very generous even though we only had the standard plate size. There was only 2 meats available but I had some of each. The beef melted in the mouth. Nice selection of vegetables, well cooked, although roast potatoes and parsnips could have done with a little longer roasting. The layout accommodates families, with a play area but also there is plenty of tables set in quieter areas of the restaurant if that's what you prefer. All in all, extremely good value for money and we'll certainly be going there again. Good disabled access so we'll be able to take my Mum, who'll have a child's portion, which will be plenty big enough for her. She loves a carvery as she finds large plates of food off-putting.

QUITE ENJOYABLE not too much of a wait for the food to arrive, none of the party complained about anything and the Doom Bar was excellent

Awesome food. Sunday roast was great value for money. Roast beef melt in your mouth. Shame that dogs aren't allowed.

Great unlimited breakfast for £6 .. friendly staff .

First time at the priory last Monday 18th November travelled from Birmingham about 10 ish bypassed you on A45 popped in Well was not expecting this a buffet breakfast it was amazing never thought a breakfast like that to be fresh and tasty well done to the chef

We love it and will be back .thankyou

The ease of ordering was great, there was a lot of variety to and the cost wasn't expensive at all. Great value for money. The only issue we came across was, after being placed in the function room (party of 20 plus 5 children) There was a lack of seating available which caused somewhat of a stir to begin with.
