The Wheatsheaf Inn in East Northamptonshire

Lovely atmosphere and what a great menu! Really lovely food and good service. The village is very luck to have this wonderful pub!

The pub and restaurant are nicely decorated, the staff attentive and welcoming however we came for a family meal and the food was overpriced and distinctly average at best. For example my starter was described as..... " Pan fried King Prawns, white wine, garlic and chilli butter and crusty bread".....what I actually got was 4 king prawns in a sweet chilli dipping sauce straight out of a bottle! Despite ordering a Sirloin Steak rare I'm 99% certain I was served a Rib Eye steak .....the shape was wrong for a sirloin steak and the marbling throughout the meat was reminiscent of Rib eye....plus it was overcooked. £8 for my king prawn starter and £29 for a steak is at the higher end for pub food in my opinion ....I didn't think the quality was reflected in the price.....looking back I was disappointed. My wife had Sea Bass ...which again was overcooked. I'm actually surprised as the Wheatsheaf is now under the same ownership as the Woolpack at Islip ( our usual restaurant of choice) and the food there is exceptional in comparison. Maybe we were just unlucky last night and had a poor meal, however I'm not risking a repeat visit.

Had lunch today and both myself and my partner had the chicken Kiev and it was absolutely fantastic, my partner said it was the best she's ever had. Great pub and great food!!!

Incredible service, food, drink and atmosphere. Absolutely loved it. Would highly recommend - will be going back for sure.

we live in the next village along and have been to Christmas meals here but nothing else. We booked for Sunday lunch with a visit relative. The service from the staff was so good. Everyone who came to our table was lovely. We all had a Sunday roast and the food was amazing. The gravy was so flavourful and the serving was just the right amount. We had a lovely experience here and will definitely book to come back again.

Went with friends, arrived, were seated with a drink bought to us by waiter by 6.45pm. Found in the menu that some dishes were only available up to 7pm. Finally got asked what we wanted to eat at 7.15 to be told that "we are too late" I said we have been here well before 7 to be told that "we are very busy". No apology, so ordered from the main menu. My wife's Chicken Kiev was completely overcooked and the leaks were hardly cooked, my pot of micro-waved peas were cold in the middle. Should have complained but didn't want to embarrass our friends. Disaster. Shame.

We looked on Trip Adviser for somewhere to have lunch not too far off the A14 - we were travelling from Stafford to Ipswich. Trip Advisor suggested the Wheatsheaf - a lovely little pub in Titchmarsh, Northamptonshire. Excellent choice. Off the A14 - straight down a little country lane for 5 minutes to a pretty village - good food, nice people, not too expensive. Plenty of parking. We’ll definitely be back next time we are hurtling along the A14 at lunch time!

This is a real gem of a pub. The food was excellent the beer of equal quality and a good range. The service was efficient and our waitress, Gemma a treasure. Nothing too much trouble and warm and welcoming. This was our second visit and we will become regular diners. An experience worth travelling for.

Came here with a friend and I couldn’t fault my experience. The service was amazing. The staff were extremely friendly and helpful. As soon as we entered the building, staff were ready to help us. We had 2 steaks which were cooked exactly how we wanted. The portion sizes were generous. The biscoff cheese cake was flavoursome and delicious. Big shout out to India who was very attentive. Will definitely be visiting again.

Two of the nicest pub meals we’ve had since arriving in England 3 months ago. We stopped here on a whim looking for dinner and were impressed by the service and quality of the meals. Much appreciated thank you.

Our main beef and chicken meals were ok, except for the lack of hardly any vegetables which I expected to arrive separately, but never did. We had four deserts, for four people. When the bill arrived, it seemed quite a lot, and on closer inspection found we had been charged for seven deserts. When we alerted the guy who seemed to be in charge, there was no apology whatsoever, he just blamed the young lady who had been serving us. He should have taken responsibility himself. Let's hope the meals improve and the manners of those in charge. Although I won't be returning.

We ordered a chicken burger and the fish and chips. The fish and chips were disappointing. The portion of fish was small and most of it consisted of overcooked batter, with just a small amount of fish inside. Most of the chips were overcooked and dark brown in colour. The peas were acceptable. Drinks-wise, we ordered a jug of tap water to start with as it was a hot day. During the meal were not asked if we would like any other drinks. We had to get up to ask for the bill and once this was paid, the waitress turned her back and walked off without saying a thank you or goodbye. Overall, disappointing.

Sunday lunch always a fantastic experience here, they're particularly brilliant with Gluten Free customers, it's my favourite place to eat.

As our family is spread out, we were looking for somewhere near Thrapston and remembered The Wheatsheaf. It has been some years since our last visit so decided to give it a go. What a good decision. Most of us ordered the beef which was just the right size for us and was simply lovely. Presented well, the beef was beautifully cooked, the vegetables lovely especially the red cabbage and a very tasty large Yorkshire pudding. We cannot comment on dessert as we were all too stuffed to have one! We will remember The Wheatsheaf and visit again.

Visited the Wheatsheaf for the first time a birthday lunch and will certainly be returning soon. Menu is not extensive which I like as I would rather have the chef concentrate and succeed on a few dishes rather than try to do loads and fail on them all. I had braised beef cheeks which were absolutely gorgeous, very soft and fell apart with a great sauce. My wife had prawn, crab and crayfish risotto which was one of the best she has had, really tasty almost tasting like a bisque. Orange pud for afters was really tasty with a lovely curd and sorbet. Compliments to the chef. Service was great, attentive but not feeling like we were being pushed. Best meal we have had out for ages and would certainly recommend the Wheatsheaf as a place to eat.

It was all the little things for me. I like to take my time, I hate that feeling that the staff are waiting to turn your table. I want to look at the wine list and see what’s on the menu that would go together. The roast was just warm felt as though the potatoes have been sat there a while. Red cabbage was very nice. Some of the pudding were great, cheesecake, but others were really not such as the crumble. Nothing bad enough to complain, we thank the staff and paid the bill.

Called in enroute to visit our family. Great selection of Gluten Free items on the menu and the standard of the food was amazing. Really cosy pub with a very warm welcome.

Our second visit in 18 months and another lunchtime visit. Today my daughter chose the burger meal with fries whilst I ordered the pork belly starter with chunky chips and onion rings. All were very good, I must admit the pork belly, although very nice...

Disappointing. Friends had recommended so we went for dinner for hubby’s birthday. No burgers. Sirloin steaks at £26.80 each were overcooked and hubby’s duck breast was served cold and returned. Service was good albeit the waiter couldn’t comment upon the meat dishes as a veggie!...

Wonderful food, the stuffed chicken leg special was lovely and my husband loves the fish and chips. Great service and a fantastic atmosphere

Only phoned up on the day and they fitted my husband and I in for roast dinner and we where not disappointed. The staff where very friendly and helpful, the food was amazing. Great portion size and presentation was very good too, Will definitely return...

Great service lovely eatery! Thank you Leon for a great experience! Will definitely be visiting soon! Sister pub to the Woolpack Inn

Dropped in for Sunday lunch today. Great choice of meats. Excellent food. Really good drink selection and to top it all off brilliant friendly service. What more could anyone want!

Had Sunday lunch here today, first class food, very quick and great friendly staff. We will definitely visit again soon.

Lovely pub!!! Stopped for lunch on way home from Cambridge. So glad we did! Food excellent. We had vegetable tagline and fish and chips-both excellent!! Very friendly and dog friendly. Wished we lived nearer! Highly recommend!!

Came for afternoon tea with friends. Food is exceptional, staff super friendly and great atmosphere. Chef is incredible. Will definitely be back!

Superb steak night meal at the Wheatsheaf. Lovely ribeye cooked perfectly with a very pleasant accompanying sauce. And a free bottle of house wine ❤️👍

Booked a table here at the last minute and so glad we did. We and our four dogs were made so welcome by every single member of staff. The menu choices were excellent and catered for a wide range of tastes and food allergies and...

Excellent food. Good selection of beer and wines. Looked after the children with a surprise Easter Egg at the end of the meal. Mini Egg Cheesecake was ‘off the charts’. Highly recommend.

Excellent food, good range of ciders and the chunky chips are a 'must'. Very good destination for tasty, well presented food and welcoming staff

My husband & I visited today with my brother & his wife. The food is always well cooked & the staff are really helpful. We had the roast lamb & the gammon. We did ask about having fish & chips but they were not available...

Had not been to the Wheatsheaf for a long time and was pleasantly surprised, good selection of draught beers and ciders and could not fault the food The service from Gemma was excellent, not only running the bar and taking orders but serving in the...

On our way to meet friends we took a wrong turn and risked the Wheatsheaf, even though it wasn’t in our 2017 Good Pub Guide! Jolly pleased we did. A simple lunch of fish and chips and a pint and we were on our way....

Perfectly cooked, and very tasty lamb and great traditional fish and chips at The Wheatsheaf last night. Very good, well kept beer and friendly staff. What’s not too love?

Absolutely excellent in every way. Beautiful quaint village pub with great atmosphere Booked a table of six last minute for Sunday lunch; Gemma was fantastic, service second to none and food superb, couldn’t fault it in any way at all, would highly recommend and will...

We returned to the Wheatsheaf for a friend’s birthday, on a cool Sunday lunchtime in November. Gemma, Leon and the team looked after us extremely well, and get the balance just right! We always feel hugely welcome and the atmosphere is really friendly. We had...

A great choice of food, always a very warm welcome and nothing is to much trouble. The food was delicious and specific dietary requirements were met. The service was amazing and we would highly recommend. This pub is a gem!

Terrible! I ordered the swordfish which was so overcooked that I had difficulty cutting through it! Didn’t even resemble swordfish. It was only half a centimetre thick! A tiny portion of mash potato underneath it completed the “experience”. That cost me £17.50. When I mentioned...

Amazing Sunday lunch. Food was delicious. Had the pork which was superb. Great selection of beers and wines. Friendly attentive service. Good value.

Not from the area this was the first time we had eaten here but - wow - how welcoming was this pub courtesy of the wonderful Gemma. Everything was wonderful - and having a coeliac in our group it was good to know that the...

How lucky are we to live in Titchmarsh and have this wonderful pub on our doorstep. So friendly, great service and wonderful food. Took friends from Yorkshire there last night for a meal - they were very envious that we can just walk up the...

This pub is situated in the beautiful village of Titchmarsh near Thrapston, a 3 minutes drive from the A605. We visited for lunch and drinks earlier today and received an excellent welcome. Our orders were taken and drinks followed quickly. Our food was excellent as...

This is my village pub and we have eaten there many times in the past and it has always been Ok. The pub is now under new management and is seriously upping its game. Yesterday, for example, we had a really very good lunch. In...

I was staying nearby and phoned to book a table - due to COVID dining was outside in marquees. I was delighted with the hospitality, quick service and most of all food quality. This was easily the best food I have experienced since being diagnosed...

Four of us have just had an excellent lunch, could not fault it, food and staff were brilliant, we will be returning very soon.

We booked a table at The Wheatsheaf as a stopover early evening meal whilst taking my elderly parents on a weekend break. What a fantastic pub and restaurant! The menu was very comprehensive and the staff were absolutely tremendous, friendly, helpful and accommodating. We each...

Beautiful meal, great service and top COVID precautions in place. I had fresh and great tasting crayfish to start with pan fried halibut on a wild mushroom risotto for mains; the risotto was creamy and full of flavour and the halibut was perfectly cooked. Lovely meal, thank you.

Stumbled on this gem on way back from a work trip . Everything was set in a excellent thought out Covid way but extremely welcoming we were greeted in a friendly way and services was first class ... we had sausage mash and seasonal veg , a simple dish some might say but wow the presentation and the delivery of flavours exceeded my expectations .Definitely will be visiting again next time that way

I just wanted to post a thank you review from the cycle group that stopped at the Wheatsheaf on Sunday 6th Sept. Despite not normally being open until 12pm we received a very warm welcome, being served teas, coffee & sausage sandwiches in the lovely garden area.The staff that we met were friendly, professional and very accommodating, I just wish that we could have stopped for longer and had a beer or two, the range of real ales looked fantastic.Thanks

My wife and I and her sister recently had Sunday Lunch at the Wheatsheaf. We all opted for the Vegetarian option which featured an absolutely superb nut roost, which came with a selection vegetables, super roast potatoes and a ginormous Yorkshire pudding accompanied with Vegetarian gravy. Absolutely excellent.My wife was too full for a pudding but I opted for Sticky Toffee pudding and my sister in law had Crumble and Custard Again excellent.Fabulous meal, great service and wonderful surroundings.I enjoyed the Nene Valley Blond session bear Strongly recommended

A nice peaceful spot to be pampered and chill out, the village too is worth a nice walk before food and nice beers.

Chance visit today and wasnt sure what to expect. Asked about vegan options expecting to get the usual ( which in most pubs is either a rubbish burger / curry / or nothing at all ) and got a superb list of decent home made options. I had sausages and chips.. sounds dull right? No this was amazing version with quality gastro level veg and gravy, one of the best quality vegan meals I've had. Served with a smile by Gemma (Owner? Manager? Not sure but a hospitality born natural super star) in a smart covid sharp lovely pub. I dont live nearby but we already booked for a sunday lunch (vegan one hoorah!).On top of all that several NVB keg and cask beers! OMG!I wish this was my local...

Went to The Wheatsheaf for lunch today. They had a very good selection of drinks. Lovely menu and superb food. The service was perfect and the team were very accommodating of two fussy children! We will certainly be going back. A real gem.

What an amazing welcome at a beautiful spot that is a hidden gem!!! Local beers, friendly staff and amazing food and menu. Nothing that I could improve on, absolutely perfect afternoon.

Unlocked at last - Book your table and go have a proper pint, vino or glass of G&T and perhaps have something to eat, because if you do, you'll have some of the best, honest pub / restaurant grub in our Region. We did and our lunch time experience was excellent - Welcomed warmly, COVID-19 precautions fully explained - escorted to our table - no Bar Service or vertical drinking but these are strange times - the menu had a full range of choices for every taste - we shared local Brixham Pate, then Sea Bass and T-Bone both cooked to perfection, Service was discrete but spot on, as was the atmosphere --- good banter & socially distanced chatter. Thank you

Soooo friendly... Asked to light the woodburner... Did.... Great hosts... Nothing too much trouble... Def recommend.... Good hosts x

What a great village pub. Friendly hosts who went out of their way to make you feel welcome and to make your time there enjoyable.We were there for lunch and I tried the pheasant starter followed by one of their special steak pies. Both dishes were excellent and highly recommended. They were so good, decided to try a crumble for dessert, which I also would recommend.There were loads of little touches there which I liked, like decent paper towels in the loos instead of a air dryer and water bowls for your dog.If passing by, I would definitely drop in again.

So ...we are those weird nightmare vegans that pubs have to deal with.... and the Wheatsheaf nailed it!! With an absolutely delicious vegan pie.. and my husband had a different pie also vegan and said it was also delicious, we were both so full we missed out on the vegan pecan pie on the menu .. but we will be back. Our friends had the pheasant starter and fish, and the burger ...all very tasty. Thank you for making us feel so welcome and providing such great food! And a lovely Merlot too!! Look forward to returning very soon!

This lovely original country pub is very cosy. If you don't know the person next to you, you soon will. If you are an Ale lover and are in the area you must pop into this quaint establishment. Stuart, the landlord, is a character in himself and a font of knowledge when it comes to talking about pubs and their history. The regulars who frequent the Wheatsheaf are again quite unique and a cross section from all walks of life who like nothing better than a hearty discussion on many a subject, you can't help getting caught up in the wit and banter that takes place. Not forgetting to enjoy a good hearty meal and pint of ale (yes there is plenty of choice)

Excellent lunch. Good sized portions and excellent tender meat. Choice of fairly limited but too much choice often not a good thing

We managed to get a last minute reservation on Saturday evening for 4 people and were not disappointed. From the moment we walked in we were made to feel very welcome, and every single touch-point with a member of staff we had was professional, polite and helpful. The food was great too.It was a refreshing change to have great food, service and a lovely setting with no compromise.Thanks for a great evening, we will be back.

My husband and I managed to get a table only ringing early on a Saturday evening. Arrived about 8pm and got a drink in the bar served by a friendly bar maid. We were shown to our table in the restaurant. We had Japanese pheasant which was a first and also excellent with bread oils & olives . Mains we both had sirloin which came with fat chips , cherry tomatoes & peppercorn sauce. We had just one dessert the pecan pie . All were very good and the total bill with4 drinks was £77.

I was in awe of this gorgeous little pub. Beautiful location in the middle of the countryside, fantastic building and atmosphere. Lovely food and welcoming staff who were so friendly and attentive. Food was out of this world and we all had such a great time. Will be returning and highly recommend.

Staying over the road through work, made to feel very welcome, nice chilled rural pub. Food was spot on very good burger would highly recommend if you’re ever passing through.

Monthly quiz night, excellent food, great atmosphere and ver entertaining with Stuart as quiz master. A great family and friends night out

Firstly, front of house, Gemma is superb which is great in making you feel welcome in this lovely village pub. The food has always been great and the place has a good atmosphere.

Popped in for lunch today and had the most delightful seafood chowder. Yummy! My wife was also blown away by the ‘Kentucky-style’ pheasant and, of course, delicious fat chips. The friendly staff are always attentive. Looking forward to their Christmas dinner specials coming up.

We have eaten here before, but not for a couple off years, so we called ahead and booked a table for early Saturday evening after being out for the day. The menu isn't the most extensive you will find, but what was available seemed to reflect seasonal availability as much as a desire to do things well.

We met some friends for the quiz night and dinner on Thursday. It was brilliant! The quiz was great fun, our team came last, but we didn’t mind!

Popped in on recommendation and had an excellent meal in a very welcoming and great village pub with a top class atmosphere.

Having read an article in Nene Living about how this restaurant was offering a menu with a good range of gluten free we decided to give it a go. three of us being coeliac it is therefore important that issues such as cross contamination as well as ingredients is important. Wow this restaurant was fantastic we will definitely be back. The food was excellent for all of us and the service second to none. Definitely recommend and will be back

We went with friends and late changes meant that we needed a dog friendly pub for our lunch time. This place was discovered and off we went and found it to be perfect. Not exactly crowded but welcome was warm and friendly, service prompt and efficient and the food excellent. Nice ambience showing beneficial effect of recent refurbishment and at a fair price. Menu unadventurous perhaps but for traditional old buffers like us ideal. Scotch eggs were delightful and chips were exceptional. Lamb and potato pie was enjoyable and the vegetables cooked just right. Sweet menu rather limited but sticky toffee pudding will win over many guests! We skipped pud as we had eaten too well. Recommended and we will return.

Can’t praise enough. A small walking group and Gemma sorted coffee before we left along with food order for later. Along with her staff provided excellent service and a really good Sunday lunch. Enjoyed the sardine starter but the roast with some of the best tasting beef in many years (rare as requested ) along with perfectly cooked vegetables was memorable. 4 well kept real ales. Comfy seats in the bar area and lovely restaurant area. On a scouting visit we had an excellent special of beef curry and very good pork belly.

We stopped here on a cross-country drive back home, and very glad that we did. A friendly and relaxed place full of charm and warmth and atmosphere. The service was exemplary and personable without being intrusive. The food was great-tasting and filling, and the setting is picturesque and peaceful and yet easily within reach of the A14. Though just a lunchtime stop, it really added to our day. I'll be glad to find an excuse to stop by on future car journeys!

Enjoyed a fantastic meal at The Wheatsheaf a few days ago. Great food and fantastic service delivered by Leon and the team. The dining room is beautifully decorated and the whole place has a very relaxed atmosphere. Will definitely return and recommend.

It's easy to overlook our local pubs, take them for granted and not review them, buy my family and I have visited the Wheatsheaf at Titchmarsh on a number of occasions over the last 6 months, each time we had the same experience.

We went to the Wheatsheaf to celebrate my wife's birthday, we both had the the roast beef which was excellent and the wife had sticky toffee pudding which she enjoyed. The service was good and it was good value Can recommend this place.

Forget Dominos, Pizza Express and all of the other ‘pizza food outlets’. Have just had the most amazing pizza experience at The Wheatsheaf, Titchmarsh. Extensive choice with extra toppings if required. Nothing was too much trouble. And pizza where the topping actually went right to the edge of the dough. Honestly, you won’t be disappointed. Just heard there is going to be a regular pizza night so watch this space.

A straight forward Sunday Lunch but with an alternative lighter Sunday Lunch menu. Two of our party were late but they were still very patient.

We went with friends on a busy Friday night, drinks and food service was slow throughout our visit. My fish Scotch Egg was tasty for starters and the ham, egg & chip for main was okay. Sold out of the pie I wanted which was a shame (second time that's happen to me here).

We had the olives and bread starter, lovely warm bread, good olives (I liked them, my o/h not so much) and the oil and balsamic was very tasty.

Called in on a weekday for a quick lunch. There was a large party of walkers arriving all of whom had pre-booked and came to buy drinks and pay for their meals, so a short wait to be served. A fine selection of beers (pity I was driving) and the two of us decided to share a selection of starters rather than have a main. No problem and a good selection came to our table. Most enjoyable.

Myself and husband live locally and have visited on a few occasions now, the service is always friendly and welcoming.

A lovely pub for a Sunday roast with multiple choices of meat. The staff are friendly and welcoming. The whole restaurant is clean and modern. I would recommend going for a nice lunch.

I had the Pork Belly which was beautifully cooked and served with apple purée and Dauphinois Potato. Delicious. Served in a timely manner. My husband ate Plaice which he said was OK The staff were really pleasant and friendly. Great for a pub meal

Non-descript from the outside this village Pub is beautifully decorated inside in a modern, chic style that aids relaxation. The Menu is small but has enough favourites, all at reasonable prices. There's a pie menu too. I went for ham, egg, chips as the turkey, bacon, stuffing pie I wanted was sold-out. The food arrived in short order, it looked and tasted delicious. Unusually, the "ham" was a smoked bacon chop, tender and flavoursome as I said.

Beautiful and specious place to visit. Very kind staff. Amazing food. Big thumbs up for the Chef 👍😁

We chose this place because it was near A14. We left carriages way and travelled along pretty country lanes before reaching Cotswold style picture box village.

Lovely spacious table Good menu and although early evening we were still able to have a Sunday roast which was very tasty Service was good and a pleasant relaxed atmosphere

Just off the A605 in the lovely village of Titchmarsh is the an up to date pub with little touches of the past here and there, the hosts were most welcoming. The bar has a good selection of beer and wine. Food covers most pallets, I had Pea Risotto with Smoked Haddock lovely.

My wife and I went to the Wheatsheaf for lunch to celebrate our wedding anniversary. We both had the Sunday Roast, beef and lamb which were tasty. The staff were friendly and attentive although we both missed Gemma who was not working that day.

Superb meal at The Wheatsheaf tonight. A lovely smoked mackerel starter followed by perfectly cooked sea bass. Our friend's whitebait was gorgeous. Highly recommended.

Our walking group of 21 people had lunch on Friday. As arranged, we booked ahead, and went for our 2 hour walk around the local hills and dales.

A very welcoming pub and staff. The restaurant surroundings makes the meal enjoyable. The food is of an excellent standard.

When we booked, I mentioned that we were both vegetarian and were very pleased at the extensive menu options for both the starters and main courses

Being diagnosed gluten intolerant really restricts my menu choices. Having a veggie wife, plus vegans in the next generation, makes life even harder when we're eating out together.

We live a couple of doors away and popped in for supper this evening. Little did we know it was a fish night and I was pleasantly surprised! Both mine and my husbands suppers were outstanding, the fish was perfectly cooked and so was the dessert. I had sea bass on puy lentils and a dessert of banoffee sundae which was made with clotted cream and perfect banana with toffee sauce. Yum!

This is a lovely pub and very friendly. Worth a visit and the chips we ordered were amazing. Very friendly and great service

Located in a small village just outside of Thrapston, there are signs directing you towards this pub and there are some beautiful views of the countryside on the way.

Last minute decision to go out and picked the Wheatsheaf to try their steak night. What a great choice! Ribeye for me and sirloin for my partner, both cooked to perfection (and yes I am a steak snob). Gemma the manager was superb and the level of professionalism and customer service added to a great eating experience. Selection of real ales are great, setting very friendly, a well deserved 5 stars. We will be back , thanks Gemma.
