The Star Inn in Kettering

Great home cooked food and great value for money, friendly staff.

A wonderful meal, fabulous atmosphere and the selection of drinks was very extensive. A super village pub and we will definitely be revisiting.

Lovely pub, very traditional, super clean, great memorabilia of the area. A great place. We only had a drink though so can't comment on food

The quality of the food on offer, value for money, and speedy and friendly service make this a destination to keep coming back to. The lunchtime menu is particularly inviting. P

Staff very welcoming and friendly. Service excellent and the food tasty and freshly cooked at very reasonable prices. What's not to like 😁.

Visited on a Saturday tea time having had a very pleasant afternoon at the cricket club. Decent range of menu choices. We hadn't booked a table and were slightly worried when the waitress had to check with the kitchen before seating us....the place was almost empty.

Reasonably priced lunch and really helpful. Car park at the back, too.

Lovely Sunday roast and friendly staff

Awful customer service. Went for a drink withy husband and children (7&3). We are working our way through English heritage sites. So stopped for a drink whilst looking at Eleanor Cross. After 40 minutes the manager came and asked us to keep the children quiet! 'people are trying to eat'. The children were making a normal amount of noise, it was absolutely ridiculous. To add our 3 year old is autistic and can't regulate his volume, even with this in mind he wasn't being loud. Felt absolutely blindsided, completely unnecessary. We just said we are leaving, we absolutely will not make our children sit in silence. We purposely sat nowhere near anyone. My son (7) actually used his own pocket money to buy some sweets. Absolutely no consideration for the fact that we were also paying customers, and that children are allowed to be children and not be seen and not heard.

Lovely historic pub found to be busy inside and out. Good selection of real ales on offer. The food was classic pub grub so the price was right and good quality. The young staff were sharp and were on the ball. The village and pub are certainly worth a visit.

Absolutely loved our visit to the Star Inn Pub! The pub food was the best we've ever had, and the atmosphere was perfect. Highly recommend!

Lovely food, lovely people. A great value lunch with excellent food. Great experience. We will definitely be going back.

Cracking little pub in the heart of this beautiful village of Geddington 😎

A great pub in a really picturesque location. Very helpful and friendly staff. Excellent value food. Definitely worth a visit.

A friendly village hostelry with well kept ales and good value for money food that is well cooked. Lunchtime special prices make it even better. Glad we found it!

Well kept real ale, good pub grub. Traditional English pub with log fire and friendly staff.

Genuine place well worth a visit. Unique location and iconic view. Living history.

We had a Sunday roast. Opted for the 3 course for £20. All the food was excellent. Everything was hot and portions ample. We will definitely return.

Lovely Sunday lunch. Very tasty with plenty of fresh vegetables and reasonably priced. Staff are all so friendly.

Busy pub obviously popular with the locals. Accommodating staff with friendly attitude. Good food and beer at reasonable price.

Very nice.. food and service brilliant

First time for ages visiting the Star, Sunday Lunch. Food was excellent, hard to get roast lamb right, today was slightly pink, cut like butter, add fresh vegetables, cooked to perfection. Pate to start, no room for desert. We will be back in the near future.

Just had an excellent lunch. Piping hot, delicious food served by polite and chatty staff

Good pub food based in a picturesque village in North northants. Sunday lunch with all the trimmings, very good.

A warm welcome and good food at very reasonable prices.

Great place to go to eat a drink,

A lovely cosy table and atmosphere, food excellent and service excellent 👌

Quality Sunday lunch at a good price. Lovely starter, main course with lots of vegetables. Nice beers

A nice old pub in a very historic area. Good food at a reasonable price, with very pleasant staff.

Just had a lovely lunch, could not fault it, food and staff both great. Thank you.

It's a really nice pub that's the perfect distance for a bike ride with my son. Beer was great, but I didn't try the food.

A wonderful lunch at a well run pub ,staff very obliging and helpful meal was very tasty and we thoroughly enjoyed it thank you to all staff from 3 happy pensioners xxx

Very helpful staff, excellent menu and food. Thank you.

Well, just got back after a birthday meal. When the only problem I had was salt and pepper squid wasn't on the starter menu, because all our food was beautiful, and I am sure that would have been brilliant too. We had Prawns (really good) and Pate (excellent). Mains were pork and lamb. All really good, beautifully cooked, plenty of veg, couldn't fault it (bar the fact my wife's pork crackling sounding so good to eat, and I didn't get any). Desserts were profiteroles and apple crumble. Again, all really good. The atmosphere in the pub was really friendly and good. The service from all the staff was excellent and the value for money was incredible. Our first visit, but certainly not our last.

Great local with live music and decent locally brewed ales. Perfect!

Very friendly. Live Music sometimes once a week.

Nice village pub with a range of real ales, often from local breweries. Food available, which others have recommended 😊

Welcomed by friendly staff and had a lovely lunch

Rather uninterested, unwelcoming staff.

Economically surprised for the area. Staff were very helpful and friendly

Amazing customer service and superb, fresh, home cooked food in a very comfortable atmosphere. Great value for money. We’ll definitely be back.

Great place, great atmosphere great staff always friendly and welcoming

Searching for a perfect location for family Christmas get together within this area...came across this wonderful place. Phone calls dealt with so politely and professionally and booking made. Arrived in the picturesque village with a warm welcome and open fire where all 14 of us were shown to our table. Staff were amazing, plentiful choice of drinks and menu mouth watering. Service was perfect and food was so tasty with huge portions and nothing was too much trouble...even my request for crackling even though I'd ordered beef. Thank you all for a wonderful dining experience and we will be booking our family Christmas get together for 2023 with you. Looking forward to another great dining experience in you company. Just perfect.

Visited midweek and took advantage of the three courses for £12.50 deal, which was great value! Portions weren’t massive, but plentiful and a good range of options. Would have been nice to have had more than one vegetarian starter, but the soup was nice. Friendly staff too and loved that my dog could dine with us.

Went for pre Xmas family evening pub meal weren’t disappointed the star is a traditional pub with traditional pub grub you can taste the home made ness if you want a pie full of meat that needs a ladder to climb the crust or a macaroni cheese to wrap round as comfort blanket then this is the place to go lots to choose from on the menu and friendly helpful staff

Lovely Sunday lunch. The service was good. The starters were very good and set us up for the main event. The roasts were excellent especially the vegtables which were lovely and plentiful We have been severa times and met the same high standard ever time. Keep up the good work

We were invited for a complimentary meal after a previous hickup. It was well worth the wait. We had 3 main courses of steak, gammon and burger, and all were well cooked and tasty. The menu is very good value for what you get. Would definitely return. Thank you Richard.

Booked a table to have lunch with my mum and dad . Were welcomed in by the staff lovely , friendly and professional . Food was absolutely amazing and a great value lunch menu . I will definitely be visiting again . A lovely , friendly and well presented village pub .

We booked a table for a meal last night,but on arrival were told the chef was upstairs with coronavirus and no food was being served. Despite having a telephone contact number, they did not bother to ring and cancel our booking. We did a round trip of 18 miles, and had no dinner. The nonchalant attitude of the staff was appalling. The male behind the bar flippently said we could have some vouchers, but the female said they couldn't do that. She lied and said the manager had texted to inform us on Wednesday, obviously no text was received. We will not be returning, and future potential diners should be aware of this totally non-pofessional attitude.

Pre booked Sunday lunch for four. Lovely food, well cooked & well presented. Well worth a visit. Been there a few times before and will certainly be back. Tip. Ignore one star reviews. They were under a previous owner!

Booked the dining room for a group of 24 people, including some pretty tough dietary requests which Richard took personal care of. The comms were great and we pre ordered our food to assist the kitchen. We were treated to a tour of the village...

Very nice Sunday lunch at the Star. Food hot and tasty. Good service. Only one complaint - the Yorkshire puddings weren’t home made - could have been Aunt Bessie’s.

We regularly come here with since moving to the village. This is a great pub, whether you are visiting with kids, as a couple, or with friends. They keep refreshing the available beers with local and interesting ales. Always a new selection every few weeks....

Just had an excellent birthday meal with my husband, teenage son and his girlfriend. The staff were very friendly dogs are welcome. I will be back.

We have visited the star twice now for Sunday lunch and they have been excellent both times. The staff are very helpful and nothing is too much trouble. We were quite a big group but the food was hot and nicley served.

Today we , a group of 25, arrived at The Star Inn.. the tables were already set with linen tables clothes, linen napkins and cutlery. When all seated the starters of home made pate and prawn cocktails arrived promptly and were delicious. The main mealsl followed . Such variety, lasagne, chill, scamp, fish , which included vegetarian options. These meals all arrived within a few minutes hot and delicious. The empty plates showed this group of mature ladies and gentlemen enjoyed their food. Desserts were served, consisting of Apple crumble, profiteroles and a delicious beetroot and chocolate cake. Once again empty plates. Everyone left full and happy having eaten a wonderful lunch. Huge BIG THANKS for the staff of the The Star at Geddington

I visited The Star for lunch as a group of 6 for a work lunch. The atmosphere was really nice. nice English pub/restaurant. The food was lovely, we all had a range of dishes, soup of the day, steak and ale pie, Cajun chicken baguette, chilli con carne and a brie & bacon baguette. My meal was delicious and everyone else's looked great too. The service was great. The pub got quite busy but the staff did a great job.

the star has not been of the best in the past couple BIT THE NEW OWNERS HAV LIFFTED IT UP TO THE OLD STANDARDS we had Stake and Ale pie Chips and peas it was excellent a good choice of beers and nice to see the fire on

Ordered a lasagne that wasn't very hot, bland and dry. I relayed to the waiter that it was uneditable due to temp and dryness (didn't mention the blandness​ as thought that might be a bit rude) only to have the cook/ owner come out, pissed off to say the least.

Fab food at the star inn geddington this evening. Must try the sizzling fajitas, first class. My husband had the rump steak cooked to perfection & good size portions . Recommended trying it .

We had a three course meal here recently and although it has been in the doldrums for a couple of years, it now has new owners and you can definitely see and feel the difference, newly decorated inside, welcoming staff and getting busier. The food was very well presented and tasty and the serving staff were friendly. Glad this inn is coming back to life and becoming busy again. It is located in the middle of Geddington, opposite Eleanors Cross. Will definitely be visiting again next time we are in Geddington.

Just had a amazing Sunday lunch at the star. roast beef cooked to perfection lashings of potatoes and veg excellent price will deffo be going back for more 😁

En el mismísimo middje de Geddington, un encantador pueblo inglés, por el histórico Eleanor Cross.

Although no longer serving food this little pub is great to pop in for a drink

A decent traditional old pub in the beautiful village of Geddington near Kettering. We parked in the small car park at the rear and walked in Quiz night!! Wr ordered our food from the limited menu......most things with chips.We ordered ham egg beans and chips....food arrived fairly quickly and was cheap too..£6-95 each......food not bad..just ok.great pub full of character.visited 19th 2016.

Had a great meal last night the 14th November Jayne and her staff were brilliant.It was busy ,well done Dave(Cookey) .The band Shanandoah provided excellent entertainment Sue,Chris and myself and everyone else had a great time.Thanks x.Rick.

Hemos estado en la estrella en varias ocasiones a mediodía y por la noche ya que recientemente se ha tomado el personal es tan amable y servicial, y son realmente girar. La comida es excelente y una buena relación calidad-precio. El ambiente es muy acogedor...

Had our first meal in the Starr since it is in the hands of new management. The improvements made to to environment, service and food was remarkable. Nice pub meal by an open fire with a nice ale in a clean environment......well done Jane and her team. If you have been put off before....this village pub is definitely worth another visit

After a rocky year at the star with a landlord that had no clue the star is finally reaching its former glory. Jayne the landlady who has come back to the star is working tirelessly to make the pub a success. The food is beautiful just what you would want from a village pub. The atmosphere is welcoming, staff are friendly. Children are welcome.Dogs are also welcome in the bar area. The pub has also been putting on local bands on Saturday nights which pack the place out!At time of writing there's a Halloween party due to be held on the 31st October....The star is really worth a visit and if you have been before I strongly recommend people give it a try again. My partner and I had steak, I'm a fussy steak eater and it was cooked to perfection!Keep up the good work to everyone at the star

After a long time in the doldrums. At last they have a new landlady and a chef that can actually cook !!!Only a basic menu at the moment (but this is done very well) but this is apparently set to expand very soon.The pub is clean and welcoming once again. Very busy when we visited last night a good mix of people eating or just having a drink.Hopefully its the first step back to the Stars former success !!!

Since the old landlord has gone the pub has gone through a change for the better ........ well worth a visit again
