Great little pub. Food came very fast and we were served by a lady called Deanna and she was so helpful. My dad has limited mobility and she couldn’t have done more to make him comfortable. Will certainly be returning

1.50 for 3 onions rings and they were not the size of a side plate more a 50p size. Unbelievable

A wonderful first visit to the Wig and Walnut for a family birthday lunch on a Sunday. We were seated promptly and served quickly. The food was delicious and well presented. My mum enjoyed her vegetarian roast and portions were generous. Our waiter was great and really friendly too. Lovely atmosphere inside and great outdoor seating too. We will be back!

Edit: Came here again and was served by Aaron. He is the funniest, most attentive, and best server I've ever had. Definitely deserves a raise and a best server badge! ❤️ Been here twice and loved it each time! Recently went for lunch with my parents and our server Glenn was polite, attentive and made our time a really pleasant one. As a vegetarian, I appreciated that they had multiple veggie/vegan options for me to choose from. Recommend this place to everyone!

Food was great and we received amazing service from Dan, really couldn’t do enough to make our experience a good one. Enjoyed it so much we returned today as a couple to try the Sunday roast and throughly enjoyed our meal. We were served by Dan again who remembered us, nice touch great service again.

For me, eating out in a chain pub is not about the food (although a good choice and properly cooked and presented helps) but about the staff and whether they are welcoming, personable and listen to your order. 10 out of 10 for Dan (I think that was his name)

Ample parking, lovely spacious interior. Bar wasn't too full of people there for the football, or for father's day, which surprised me. Service was initially prompt, but it took longer than anticipated for our food to arrive (including two tables who seated/ordered after us receiving their meals first) and the fish and chips was a little overdone. Despite this, we had a lovely meal and I would be happy to come back and eat here again.

Having taken 2 friends for lunch here today was very disappointed. Food was overpriced for what we got. The pub was empty apart from several people who had 5 dogs between them who continually parked. Another couple had to move to have a quiet conversation and sit somewhere else. Then the manager had a phone conversation at full volume and the couple complained. He did come and apologise but he could have had his conversation somewhere else as the pub was empty. Not a nice catch up with friends and will not be going back.

Good pint and food was excellent - especially the Lamb Shank - the star of the show. One comment was that the steak came as medium not the requested medium rare. Everything else perfect!!

Glenn recommended the chicken burger and it didn’t disappoint when we eventually got our meals. The wait time was almost an hour from ordering to it arriving. We ordered dessert only to be told again that it wasn’t available. Good atmosphere for a Thursday night - nice to see the pub busy again.

A really nice pub with very friendly staff and absolutely wonderful food. We stopped in on the way down to Heathrow Airport just looking for any place we could grab a meal and were pleasantly surprised at just how good the quality of the food is here. We were served by Dan who was friendly and welcoming, and very tolerant of our youngest daughter who is often a bit of a handful. We also found a voucher on their website for 30% off the main courses. We averaged out at about £16 per person for a main course, dessert, and drink (no alcohol).

Hadn't booked but taken to table straight away, one a short walking distance as we are disabled so very considerate of our needs. Server is kind and friendly and always treats us like family. Drinks order taken quickly and gave us time to review the menu before coming to take our order. Was also happy to discuss any special requirements needed by my husband .Ordered our food and it came out pretty quickly even though it was very busy. My mixed grill couldn't have been cooked more to perfection, tender juicy pink steak, slight char on the lamb chop edge just as I like it. Husband had the sea bass and he said it was delicious, soft crushed potato with nice sauce and the fish just slid off the skin into manageable flakes. Both cleared our plates. Server checked on us twice but wasn't intrusive just friendly and funny. It's our fave local so will be back again soon

Hidden away in a car park on a turning where the Turkish Olive Tree restaurant sits on the corner of the road......standard kebab van fare available.....chips are good and so is the kebab meat 🍖 which we had with salad 🥗.....no napkins available though the only minus points I will give....if you ask for them they tear you off a tiny bit of blue roll from their van supplies lol 😆 Think this is the only kebab van in Towcester before you drive past it and much better than the monsta food van serving food @ the dog track whilst the Derby is on !!!
