The Swan at Lamport in Daventry - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

Despite the varying Trip Advisor reviews we decided to call in for lunch after visiting Lamport Hall. We sat in the bar area which was comfy. Outside was particularly lovely with great views and plenty of tables-would be fab on a sunny day. We received a warm welcome from the friendly barman. We had a surf n turf sharing platter (£22) and the nachos with tequila cheese dip (£5). Portions were large and we absolutely loved the nachos and the honey mustard sausages. The Platter fish was excellent, very fresh and tasty. Unfortunately the Cajun chicken skewers were poor, they tasted of nothing and the garlic bread was doughy. It’s a shame because the rest of the food was really good. It seems a bit hit and miss depending on your choice of food so choose wisely. If everything was as good as those little heavenly sausage chunks the’d be onto a real winner! We thought it good value for a freshly cooked lunch.

Disappointing. Overcooked food. Cold plates and outragously over priced wine. Needs someone to bring this beautiful pub back to basics and bring the trade back in. Staff were extra special.

Rui was absolutely amazing, top notch service, he definitely made the meal for us. He was so happy and even walked across the garden to top up our friends Prosecco, talk about going above and beyond! Will be returning, hope he is serving us when we do! Thanks again.

Such a warm and inviting reception, showed to our table and informed who would be serving us, was honestly such a lovely evening!! The ambience is beautiful, twinkly lights everywhere, our party was a couple with our in-laws and our 11 year old son, we were treated wonderfully. The food was second to none and we would certainly be back again very soon. At times like these when money is tight, you feel like it's money well spent when you get impeccable service and treated so well, it's what going to a restaurant should be like, but on many occasions isn’t, keep doing what your doing folks, 10/10.

Just arrived home from an excellent lunch meet up with ten friends at the Swan in Lamport Northamptonshire. Great food good service but most importantly the staff were brilliant. They were attentive helpful and seemed happy in their work. Well done guys great experience. Will deffo go again.

I booked a table for 17 members of the Dene Valley U3A History Group. This was for lunch after a visit to Lamport Hall. Due to the size of our group we needed to pre-order and this is normal wherever we have lunch. The choice was excellent with a wide variety of meals chosen, from a simple sandwich to 3 courses for a couple of people. Everyone at the Swan was very helpful before we went eg Amber couldnt have been more helpful. On the day both Will and Ruy, our main hosts were professional and attentive. Food was excellent and took little time to arrive. No hassle with all our members paying separately The interior was clean and stylish, pictures on their website dont do it justice

we booked as a party of 14. we pre ordered which made things nice and easy upon arrival. we were served by Rui and Dee who were both lovely and a credit to the pub. everyone enjoyed their meals and there were no complaints only full tummy’s!

Absolutely amazing food, lovely beer garden and Gino the waiter was so attentive…we’ll be coming back for the food and Gino! Bellissimo!

Extremely nice staff, but unfortunately the food is over priced and very poorly cooked and presented. The sticky beef noodles arrived in one hard lump of cold unseasoned noodles and very little sticky beef. The chicken skewer dish had no skewers and was presented more like chicken nuggets. The fish and chips were ok but the curry sauce was poor and the mushy peas didn’t even taste like peas, not sure how you do that. I did complain but sorry is not enough, when you have wasted time and money on a poor experience.

Staff member was friendly upon arrival however the food was completely without any flavour. I had a pulled jackfruit burger which was just deep fried nastiness, no taste at all, just grease. Husband had jerk chicken with rice and peas, chicken had no spice to it. It was more like a barbecue sauce had been dribbled over it and the rice and peas had no seasoning either. It tasted like boiled rice with garden peas thrown in. It wasn’t exactly a cheap lunch. Very disappointing

My wife and I went for a Sunday lunch. I have to say, service staff were excellent. Very friendly and helpful. The food however was a let down. We had a roast dinner and without doubt it’s the worst I’ve ever had in my! Huge, hard vegetables, roast potatoes that were inedible. Nothing was very hot either except for the cauliflower cheese that was scalding hot in comparison as it must have came straight out of the microwave. We didn’t complain as the service staff were so nice but the food was the worst meal I’ve ever paid for.

We recently celebrated our 50th wedding anniversary . The staff the food and the venue was Excellent. Thank you Will and his staff. All our guests thought it was a lovely venue warm and cosy . Kate & Jim

Disappointing, poor and tasteless food.Salad Caesar...bacon,chicken tasteless, anchovies,egg...and not have cheese...

Amazing restaurant l! The food was delicious. Rui was our waiter and he certainly made the experience even better with his charm and funny humour! We’ll certainly be coming back

Lovely meal and friendly staff will definitely be returning! Tried out the new menu and would recommend the surf and turf platter it was delicious!

We had booked a table for a very large group of 22 people. The service beforehand and during the lunch was superb. Orders were taken in advance and all our food turned up at the same time. It was wonderful and everyone was delighted by what they'd chosen. We were all so impressed by the team who worked hard to make this a very special occasion. I cannot recommend the place and the team enough. Thank you.

First time here with my wife. We was meet with a warm welcome The was not a massive choice on menu. But there was a good variety to choose from. The Aberdeen Angus stake was amazing cooked .well everything fing we had was cooked reay well. The staff was so pleasant reay was a nice experience Do yourself a favour go try it your self you won't be disappointed Well recommended

We thought we would be pushing our luck to get a late lunch on Mother's Day, but the staff at The Swan couldn't have been more accommodating! Very friendly and efficient. And our roast dinners were excellent when they arrived! Would very much recommend a visit!!!!

Poor service, rude waitress which we can name but for privacy’s sake we won’t until contacted by customer support. No buns for burgers, a few other items unavailable. no drinks menu apart from a wine list. Sunday dinner and the beef tasted awful, chewy and like it was a couple days old. pan “seared” seabass wasn’t seared it looked steamed, no crisp to the skin at all. Massively disappointed. Been here before a long time ago and it was great. Now it’s below average for the price.

Disappointed with the " Pie of the day" . Was over cooked and the filling (chicken I believe !) was like a cat food sachet , very small squares of "meat" in a substance The pastry was hard to tackle with a knife and fork .Very poor Service on the other hand was good

This is such a good local pub with great food and fantastic service. Really looked after with the family and would highly recommend a visit. Thank you for a great service.....

Went here with friends as a surprise for my husband. Due to the size of the party had to pre order the meal. Even though this was done in plenty of time two meals were missed off. The food that did arrive was only lukewarm. The missing meals did turn up and were taken off the bill, so thank you for that, but it meant that most of us had finished by the time they arrived. We asked for desserts, specifically about the crumble and this was not as described, so again a disappointment. Won’t be going back.

Lovely meal at lunchtime at this pub, excellent service, so friendly, customer service at its best. Although they were busy, the waiter explained that there would be a wait, which was acceptable and we were not disappointed.

We were very disappointed with the meal here. We expected high quality food but the beef in the pie was chewy and overcooked and the dessert was small and over priced. Wouldn't return or recommend.

Really lovely pub. We went here with our dog after a walk. Very welcoming. The staff are friendly and the food was really good. It’s a really nice place to eat- food as well as decor.

Sunday lunch on arrival busy but table booked so fine food is priced OK really unfortunately they had ran out of couple of things we wanted so that was slightly disappointing service was quick meal was enjoyable.

Have been using this place for 9 years, and never had a bad pint. Staff are always very friendly and accommodating. A lovely place to dine with exceptional food and equally lovely to come for just a drink. It's dog friendly and has an amazing garden for the brighter days with what I can only describe as a view the gods should be proud of over the fields. What more could anyone ask for....... Hats off to all the staff and management that keep the place as good as it is.

We went for Christmas Lunch, which promised to be amazing! (From the menu at least). The food in the most part was good. Service was poor, very slow an inexperienced staff, we guess that is due to lack of staff wanting to work on Christmas day. We paid £100 per head for the meal, there were four of us. When we came to pay the bill we were slapped with a £40 service charge! This was never mentioned previously and at least was expected and at worst greedy. We always tip for good food and service, but this was expected. It has left a very sour taste for all of us. I emailed them, but never received any response. We will certainly not visit again.

Amazing Sunday lunch… Again, from the delicious food to the exceptional service. We will be back again soon.

Really lovely meal for a cross generational group with different dietary requirements. The staff could not have been more patient and understanding. We had a wonderful meal and will certainly return.

Sunday lunch was not good...roast potatoes were rock hard,and pork belly you could not cut it. I was disappointed that you had to pay an extra 4.50 for stuffing ,or cauliflower cheese etc.....deserts wre small and overpriced..

We had a large booking of 20 people, from the minute we arrived everything was very professional, a nice welcome message for our group on the wall, started with drinks in the bar while we waited for everyone to arrive. Once seated, we never had...

The restaurant was lovely and in a beautiful setting, and the staff were great. However the wild mushroom, spinach and goats cheese raviolo was very disappointing. It was 2 large flat pasta shapes (maybe this is what raviolo means rather than ravioli, but unless you’re...

This is our third visit in 4 months and every time it's been absolutely brilliant! Staff are very friendly and helpful. Just got back tonight from another amazing meal and great service from Amelia!! Definitely compliments to the chefs!

Always a lovely time - we had yet another lovely meal here. Service is always 5* with fast and attentive staff that are more than accommodating. I have been here whilst passing through for a meal with my other half and also taking my parents...

Came here not so long ago & We will happily come back! The slow roast pork belly was excellent as was the bacon and cheese burger that my partner had. The food and drink was served in good time. the staff were accommodating and created...

Staff were good as always but despite pre ordering there was no bruschetta for starter which also led them to do the artisan breads with what appeared to be naan bread! They did remove from bill though. Chicken Caesar salad was not great and missing...

Emilia & Rui are lovely host's. From the moment we walked in we felt right 'at home'. The pubs got a lovely relaxed atmosphere which was nice. We didn't feel rushed to order, eat & leave. We could of stayed there for a few hrs!!!...

Just popped in by chance. Made to feel very welcome by the staff, who had dealt with our indecisions with patience. The staff were non stop giving attentive service. Decided to have the Roast Sunday Lunch. A very ample portion of chicken and beef served...

I had the roast lamb last Sunday - tender and beautifully cooked, served with a heaping portion of delicious veg, the Yorkshire pudding was tasty (not the usual dry, gravy sponge you get at other pubs). The value was excellent for size of the portion...

Loved the garden, what an amazing view! Nice atmosphere. Food was great (loved the duck, fish and chips, and the pork belly dish). And Lily (plus all other staff) were simply charming. Well worth a visit!

Me and my parents visited this pub as I live locally and they were here to stay. The roasts are amazing! Such huge portions, we were absolutely stuffed. We had the chicken, trio of meats and vegan nut roast between us. A special mention for...

Excellent I popped in with some friends on a Friday evening. The staff were lovely- really personable and professional, and the duck starter and venison main was so good - not your standard pub fayre at all. The large back garden is beautiful. New manager...

I don’t usually complain, however I feel compelled to share our experience. Our Sunday dinner was ok, vegetables overcooked and portion sizes small. We did mention this to the waiter who said they would share this with the manager. I think we were wasting our...

Stingy portions of overpriced cafe level food Was not impressed and won’t be back no wonder the restaurant was totally empty

The Swan is always a safe bet for Sunday lunch when family stop by. Good food, good portions, reasonable prices and reasonable service - I had to ask for things twice a couple of times. Usually a good vegetarian option; it was Ratatouille Burger today...

We precooked the meal because we were a large family group (19). We requested one table to seat the whole group which was accepted. We asked about a deposit and were informed non required. We were advised that it would be advisable to pre order...

This was our first time here, we pass by so often and we eventually came with family & their Dog Izzy (we called previously to check they were Dog friendly) & we were all welcomed 😃 and could eat either in the garden area or...

We came for the Sunday dinner. Both had the chicken and the whole meal was outstanding. One of the best we've experienced. I'd suggest adding the cauliflower cheese, it was perfect! My date also had the sticky toffee pudding which he rated 10/10. The service...

Would like to give a huge thank you to Will and his team at The Lamport Swan for making our wedding day so special and letting us hold our ceremony there. Being able to hold our ceremony outside in the gorgeous garden over looking the...

Walked into the garden to a lovely view, bitterly let down from that point on. Ignored by the waiter, so just ended up ordering on the app. We then waited 20 minutes for our drinks and still didn’t receive our drinks. Went to the bar...

I'd booked a seat for the 26th May start of the Supper Club season - specially themed meals on the last Friday of each month. I got a great seat in the restaurant, with lovely views across to the village and over the fields towards...

Great meal with a wide range including vegetarian. My granddaughter has a milk allergy and the staff were happy to check and confirm ok. All of the staff were very friendly and helpful. Excellent overall experience for a family get together. Surprisingly quiet for a...

We booked Sunday lunch for 4 people. The menu was the usual Sunday lunch offering and a few extras including g/f fish & chips! What a treat. The other three diners had lamb & pork belly Sunday roasts. They were all very happy with their...

Very disappointing, gone downhill but the prices have gone uphill. The service was not good either, waitress was pushy and scruffy. Haven’t been here since lockdown and we won’t be rushing back anytime soon

First time to the Swan and it did not disappoint. We went for a Sunday roast and it was delicious and plentiful that we only had room to share a dessert between us. The rest of the food that we could see coming out of...

We called here for lunch following a mid-week visit to the nearby Lamport Hall. We had not booked but were quickly offered a table of our choice in the larger dining area or in the cosy bar area. We chose the latter, and were presented...

First time in the Swan, lovely interior and very friendly welcome. Ordered 3 halloumi, pepper, rocket and chilli jam ciabattas. When they arrived, no chilli jam, limp lettuce instead of rocket and half the sandwich didn’t have any halloumi in. This was commented on and...

We met up with friends and sat by a roaring fire and were very impressed with the refurbishments and atmosphere, we had a light lunch and first class service from the staff, which made our stay even longer than intended and we will all be...

Very average and expensive for quality of food. Service was poor. Not down to individual staff but a lack of them. Only 2 serving for Sunday lunch to restaurant with circa 50 people. Obligatory 10% service charge was in small print but not actually applied...

Always loved The Swan and have had frequent visits. Attended tonight for friends birthday, 1st meal was barely lukewarm. The staff kindly replaced this with a greasy, unpleasant meal. It was obvious from the lack of food eaten on this replacement that all was not...

Came in for a meal with a great view and they delivered great food and environment would highly recommend, the staff was amazing and a great team leader will they went above and beyond thanks again

Now that this pub is under new management it has become bad. New manager and assistant are useless, cant be bothered to service you even if you are the only one at the bar, while there I noticed them treating the staff bad too, making...

Absolutely dire. Miserable staff, dreadful service, cold, unwelcoming, empty and No atmosphere. Food was dreadful. Fishcake starter identifiable. Main courses all eight were just dreadful. Total waste of money and felt completely ripped off. A memorable Christmas Eve for all the wrong reasons. Steer clear.

Pleasant Sunday lunch for 4. We all had roasts and puddings and were happy with the meals . The rooms are spacious and the staff looked after us well.

Came this evening with my Partner and daughter (5th November 2022). We have come a few times in the past but not recent as it is out the way for us: I ordered the pie of the day which was steak and ale and come...

Ive been going to the pub for years, the staff are amazing, which is the only reason I still go there, but the prices of the beer is crazy, nearly £6 now for my favorite beer, when the next local pub is £1 cheaper. Mc...

Went for food here for the Sunday menu. had the worst table service, found waitress very rude when taking our order and a member of the kitchen staff had to come and retake our order due to the waitress being ‘confused’ and the food wasn’t...

4 of us visited for lunch, I had the chicken caesar, others had 2 burgers and a sandwich. Compliments all round, I've visited before and they do well each time :) Waiting staff are as equally excellent and accommodating.

Has been on our “To visit” list for a while. But unfortunately, the food is below par with above par prices. We came for Sunday lunch and although the meats were all delicious (Beef, & Lamb) it was luke warm, also the accompanying veg was...

We had a delightful lunch with friends and thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. The food was delicious and the service was attentive but not intrusive.

Visited the Swan this weekend. Food staff and pub were amazing. Their Sunday roast looked and tasted fantastic. Staff were helpful attentive and short wait time for food. Would highly recommended this lovely pub in a beautiful village location. Well done keep up the good...

Lovely food and a reasonable choice for both a dairy free diet and an egg allergy diet. Have been twice recently once with family (including children) and once with friends. Egg allergy and DF made for some interesting questioning of the server who was very...

The staff did their best, and the location is gorgeous of course. But you can 100% tell this has changed hands and is now part of a pub company. Generic menu, badly cooked food (bland, over cooked). What a huge shame. Sadly this will no longer be my go to for a 'fancy lunch out'.

The meal we ate at The Swan was tasty and well cooked. The staff were freindly and gave efficient service. The pub itself is a lovely old building in the local iron-rich limestone and there is a pleasant outdoor eating area and garden.The menu is varied and interesting, although there is no real provision for lunches or snack meals.There's just one bitter/ale available, which is a bit disappointing but, admittedly, it was a good pint.To get 4 or 5 stars instead of three stars from me, The Swan could either provide outstanding (rather than just good) food or reduce their prices to reflect the standard and portion sizes of the existing meals (I would expect to pay around 3 pounds less for most of the dishes).They might also think about making the portions slightly more generous and offering lunch options.

I went there today for Sunday lunch I ordered nut roast. It was unbelievable. It came on half a raw aubergine It was not a nut roast. It was just quorn with a sauce. No nuts at all. It was supposed to be served with Yorkshire which was missed off At £14.95. It was a joke I told the waitress I was vegetarian. Do they know the difference between vegetarians and vegans.

So today we 3 went for Sunday lunch. Been here before and have received a nice warm greeting, but not today. Today’s experience was disappointing. We arrived a tad early but we’re assured our table was ready, so we took our drinks from the bar ( only one server with plenty of customers waiting to order) to the restaurant and we’re given our menu cards ( my menu had free food stain samples, bit poor!)We ordered 2 Sunday dinners with extra trimmings & 1 Steak Rib-Eye meal. We then waited …and waited… probably over half hour until our food arrived. Both Sunday dinners cold & returned by the waitress who entered the kitchen stating ( in my opinion sarcastically) “Apparently these 2 are cold”. I overheard because I was visiting the nearby bathroom. So, one of us eating a hot steak dinner, 2 of us left waiting again , not great!When the Sunday dinners came out 2nd time the waitress stood over the table until we all agreed the food was warm enough, bit awkward!Other waitress carried the gravy boat by the spout? Bit odd!In all, food was average & steak overpriced @ £26.Desserts were quite small portions & we were served with a dirty spoon, so we asked for another spoon & the dirty spoon wasn’t taken away. Bit poor!I have to mention one lady staff that started working later in the afternoon, I think maybe supervisor or similar. She seems more engaging and professional. Maybe the other staff should shadow her & learn manners & better customer service. Now, given that the total cost came to £109, I don’t think I’m being picky to reasonably expect:A decent welcomeA clean menu cardDecent table service by staff that treat you as a welcome guest & also know not to serve plates & dishes with hands/ thumbs attached.Hot foodClean cutlery.Maybe I’m out of touch when it comes to eating out these days?

I should have written this review several months ago. I can only apologise. Back in November we held an afternoon wake here after my husbands funeral. Nicolle and her team were wonderful. So many people complimented my family on our choice of venue. It was a superb buffet and they catered for over 40. The food kept coming. Gluten free food was provided with no hassle for 2 guests and clearly labelled. There was no charge for the room just so much per head plus free and unlimited tea and coffee.The staff were professional and unobtrusive. We could not have chosen a better venue. A very belated thank you to the whole team

Despite having driven past The Swan countless times over the years, I'd never set foot inside until recently. I now wish I'd visited much soonerSunday lunch was delicious, and the children's portions were almost as large as the adults'. Apart from having to ask for a larger plate for my grandson (children's portions are served on a very small plate despite the portion size) my only minor gripe was that the food could have been a little hotter. Between six of us we had soup, pork, lamb,beef and nut roast and all the meats were perfectly cooked and very tender and were served with plenty of vegetables. A request for more gravy was met with a smile and two jugs appeared very quicklyThe ice cream my grandson had for dessert was superb (yes, I did steal a spoonful!) Will definitely be back

Went in after visiting the Lamport hall. The food was really nice, service was good as well. Cosy pub, would definitely go back.

I rang ahead of time and asked about the lichens GF preparation process and was assured that they have separate prep areas and thoroughly clean utensils etc, so I was confident I would be safe eating here, which I was.As you can see on the restaurants menu, which can be downloaded from their website, there is a variety of GF and GFA dishes on their menu, more so in their main menu than their starters and nibbles. I opted for a cajun chicken burger. As they served, they specified that it was GF, so i didn't feel worried or feel that I had to double check myself. I was given 2 small burgers as opposed to one large one, which I assume was due to the size of the GF buns.The meal was delicious and you wouldn't be able to tell it was GF, especially the bun, which I was pleasantly surprised with (as any GF person will attest, it is hard to find decent bread!)The service was friendly and the atmosphere and ambience was relaxed. Perfect for a Sunday afternoon outing.It would be a 5 star review, however two of my family said their desserts of the cheesecake was just ok, and the strudel was a bit soggy. However, my other two family members who opted for ice cream though the flavours were lovely (but they were only listed as V on the menu, so I don't think they were GF). I wish I'd had enough room for a dessert, but the main was just too filling!I would definitely visit again.

My son and I stopped on our way to Northampton and were welcomed by two very friendly waitresses. We ordered the sharing nachos and enjoyed the taste and texture. A good start. Next banger and mash, with wrapped green beans and gravy. Unfortunately the chef had run out of green beans so dumped some unwrapped broccoli on the mash instead. No warning, no apology. I hate broccoli and the sight of it put me off the sausages and VERY lumpy mash, so one meal wasted. I mentioned the problem to the waitress who checked and told me ‘that’s all the chef has’, no alternative meal, no replacement. BUT the horror of horrors was the red berry crumble. Alternatively known as a tub of red slop. Hardly any crumble and the red berries were so sour that I had to go to the gents to spit it out. Had they run out of sugar? They need a new chef and better reaction to unhappy customers. I paid £72 for a meal for two and would rather have gone to Burger King. Nobody cares that customers will never return, which is very bad management.

Best Christmas Dinner ever. Service was fantastic, food was delicious and helpings very generous. Recommend the Swan at Lamport without any hesitation. Superb place.

My parents paid £89 a head for our party of 5 . The soup was not edible , watery like out of a box . Suppose to be butternut squash soup . The Turkey was old and dried out. Stuffing was hard . Mum was served whisky in a water tumbler with a chip and was told the chip has been there a long time so the glass wouldn’t be in her whisky . Asked for new glass and whisky . Told that was the last shot of that whisky . No Christmas atmosphere . Have eaten here many times in the past . Was so very disappointing and felt bad for my parents as they booked this as a special treat as we live abroad . Will not be coming back .

Very poor quality food. Many previous visits but sadly the food has deteriorated badly. It would appear if you ordered burger and chips you were ok but our food was a disgrace. We told the very polite waitress who spoke to the manager and no charge was made for the main course. We ordered dessert !!!! My red fruit crumble was a mushy mess....it shouldn't have been sent from the kitchen....let's face it crumble isn't hard to make and at £6.95 I expect something that resemble crumble not a small dish of baby food....I didnt complain to the waitress as we felt so sorry for this pleasant waitress. No return visits for us. Too expensive for very poor food.

A disappointed visit - with the pork belly an uncooked wad of fat which was returned without argument and a risotto ordered and eaten instead. Which was ok. Staff very understanding and the fireplace helped save the night from total disaster on a cold winters eve.

Came in for a bit of food with my sister and it was warm and welcoming from the minute we walked in :) will definitely visit again 😀

From the beginning, we were looked after so well by the staff. We had The Snug to ourselves which helped create a personal, sociable atmosphere. The food was excellent and there was such a lot of it! In all, we had a fabulous time and everyone was happy!

Positives The staff were all so friendly and helpful and the venue itself is lovely with a chilled but classy atmosphere. Negatives - terrible food The roast dinner served cold meat I mean STONE cold and the rest of the plate consisted of / carrots some half cooked cabbage and 2 roast potatoes and a massive d Yorkshire pudding that covered up the lack of everything else. We ordered a side of pigs in blankets and if wasn’t cooked it looked pale and inside was still pink - we sent it back and they made another one that was cooked but it put me off completely.Also hubby ordered trio of meat and the lamb was shredded totally random for a roast? We rarely go out as a family as we have our little girl so we was utterly dissatisfied and £55 poorer.

May be the current issues with logistics, location lovely, atmosphere ok, but foods was lukewarm and partly inedible. Frozen vegetables? Dark brown crusty sirloin beef - hard to chew? Nibbles poor.

As it was a bank holiday booked a table outside expecting it to be busy.Arrived on time and sat outside.. outdoor furniture was not inviting .hard wooden seating and no cushions.At 2.15 a waitress.arrived to take the drinks order and we stated we were ready to order..the waitress stated they were really busy and there was a queue for ordering food..she could give no information on how long it would be before we were able to order..or how long the food would be ready after ordering.It wasn't so busy that another waitress stood chatting to a table of people she obviously knew for over 10 minutes.Certainly won't be returning or recommending.

Myself and my partner came here on our first date a few months ago and our evening was completely made by our waitress Nicole. Not only was she attentive but extremely helpful with wine choices and advice with the menu. We’ve been back several times since purely down to the friendly staff and the lovely food. Thank you again for a lonely evening and service as always.

Me and my partner both decided to let someone else do the dishes today and visited we’d check out the swan after a recommendation from a friend.We arrived and waited no more than a couple seconds before we where greeted and swiftly seated.The waitress/manager (I’m not sure she was very professional but I didn’t bother to ask) gave us a lovely table by the window and set us down with menus. We both had our hearts set on the roast so I opted for beef and my partner opted for the chicken and a bottle of red.Bottle was bought promptly to our table where the waitress poured me a taster Which was a lovely touch we decided the bottle was a good choice and the waitress then poured us a couple glasses and went on her way. It was quite busy but that didn’t affect the service at all and the food arrived to the table in a timely manner (12 mins to be precise!)It was delicious!!! Me and my partner inhaled both meals and where satiated to say the least!!!We where offered a peak at the dessert menu but we where defeated.I had an Irish coffee to conclude and an Americanism for the missus.All in all was a good experience with attentive staff and clearly a well established kitchen crew.Cheers for the memories !

Our experience of lunch was a bit of a game of 2 halves. The mains we ordered were delicious. My friend had Ceasar Salad and it was a very generous portion. I had the Asian duck salad and found it really tasty. It did take over half an hour from ordering to being served and the restaurant wasn’t busy so seemed quite a long wait for 2 salads but we felt it was worth the wait. It was when we came to desserts it all went downhill. After waiting another long period of time from ordering to being served, my friend’s panna cotta was curdled and very grainy. I bested that however with a fruit berry and oat crumble that didn’t have an oat crumble topping. Not sure what it was, but it smelled and tasted like Parmesan cheese! When I complained, the assistant manager told me she didn’t want me upset so would remove the cost of the desserts from my bill - why she thought for one moment that I would be paying for 2 inedible desserts is beyond me! We were asked if we would like to order something else - we declined. At no time did the assistant manager offer anything by way of an apology or to demonstrate good customer service. It was a very disappointing end to our lunch. Lastly, if you search for The Swan’s lunch menu online and it’s offering 2 courses of certain food items for a fixed price of £13.95 ignore it. It’s out of date and won’t be offered to you. This needs to be removed. Our bill was £48 for 2 salads and 4 drinks and to be honest, it wasn’t worth the money. Due to the poor customer service and appalling desserts we will unfortunately not return to The Swan at Lamport or recommend it to friends and family.

Food and drink was absolutely perfect. Service was excellent. Would definitely recommend and will be back again

We had a lovely meal here recently to celebrate a birthday. We felt well looked after and the attentive service matched the lovely food. Thank you! 😊

The food was amazing and the staff were so friendly! 10/10 would recommend, particularly the roast if you can get there on a Sunday.

The pub is lovely, the staff are excellent as is the food. I am a little late writing this but having recently been to another Northampton restaurant and being disappointed, it made me realise just how good the food is here. We will be back!!

An excellent pub with outstanding service as well as really decent pub grub.The garden offers excellent views out over Northamptonshire also.The waitresses were extremely friendly particularly Alesha who seemed to be the life and soul of the party....and was a credit to her profession.A lovely experience and our best this year.Visited 22nd July 2021

This beautiful pub little village pub is an absolute gem ! Tucked away in the most stunning countryside, we arrived a trade early to a queue of people waiting to get in….always a good sign ! Met by Alisha who was also our waitress, what a diamond she is, nothing was too much trouble, chatty friendly and really helpful. The food and drinks were delicious….this had been a recommendation and what a good one it was. The restaurant was clean airily, modern with lots of hand gel everywhere, we felt safe and valued as a customer.Would definitely recommend here, great menu great venue with fantastic service what more could you ask for.Thanks Alisha for a truly lovely dining experience today.
