The best restaurants in Daventry East Midlands

We got our lunch from this lovely little place, excellent rolls with tasty fillings and with the tasty treats on offer we went back for some cake for afters.

The best Greek food I’ve had since living in Cyprus. I had the chicken souvlaki and my partner had the lamb souvlaki. Meat was moist and tender, halloumi was top quality. Prices very reasonable when you order directly with them. Will most definitely be back soon.

Road side sandwich snack bar. Clean fast & friendly, cooked just the way you like it. Phone orders are accepted so i will update this on my next visit

Never tried thai before, ordered green curry, mixed starters and pad thai, i then asked the lady to recommend something. Food was hot, plenty of it and all i can say is wow, so so tasty. Would certainly recommend and i think we now have found our new fav takeaway.

Simply amazing and presentation is quite unique along with the food so good we had an evening meal but went back next day for Sunday lunch which is great value. Sadly no steak on the evening menu but they came up trumps to offer a sirloin steak out of the blue

About as good as a local cafe can be, cheaper than chips too

This restaurant is unhygienic and unclean. The short version is my daughter’s leg touched the underside of the table, there was a stranger’s sticky, used chewing gum there, which got stuck and ingrained onto her leggings. The restaurant manager has refused to cover the dry cleaning costs, which amount to £15 (Yes, that’s FIFTEEN POUNDS!). Photos attached…! THE DETAIL… After finding the gum, I notified waiting staff, but apart from being disgusted, they didn't have a procedure for dealing with it, so I asked for a plastic glove and picked the chewing gum off myself. My daughter was very distressed at having a stranger’s sputum-laden chewing gum on her, but there wasn’t much we could do (we were on a mini-break - going home to change wasn't an option), so we waited for our mains, which arrived after 40 minutes! Can’t comment too much on the food as I felt nauseated by the gum, so I only ate a tiny amount. Based on what I tasted, I wouldn't go out of my way to eat there again! Anyway, I paid fully for the food and drink we ordered. We were offered baklava, and myself and the other adult in the party refused, but my children accepted, and ate it. As I was leaving, I asked if I should invoice the restaurant for the dry cleaning or if I should drop the damaged item off in the morning, with a view that the restaurant would get it cleaned and post it back to me. I was told the manager would call the next day….they didn’t. Two days later, I emailed them to ask for a refund on the dry-cleaning costs, this was refused (“We are unable to do an exchange of cash or receive the trousers for dry cleaning”) with them stating their compensation had been ‘more than fair’. This ‘compensation’ had been an invitation to pop in next time I am in Daventry for a ‘treat’(!), but I had already explained to the manager that I live 1.5 hours away and did not have plans to visit again. After my second email they suggested the chewing gum could be removed with fluff/lint roller (I mean really, who has ever successfully removed chewing gum with a lint roller?). They set out the terms and conditions (you’d think I was asking for £150,000…) in order to pay up, but as of now, they have still not paid the £15 for the dry-cleaning and are quibbling it because it can only be paid into a business account, and they (Alacati Grill) must to be invoiced directly for the dry-cleaning, by the dry cleaning company, not by me. Unfortunately, the dry cleaners’ policy is that they will only accept items that are paid for immediately and they don’t invoice third parties. I did not and do not have the time, money or inclination to drive around attempting to find a dry cleaners that would invoice the restaurant, so I paid myself to get them cleaned (and let’s not forget that driving around – it’s a 24 minute round trip to the dry cleaners – costs petrol money too), so my daughter could have her leggings back to wear. I notified the restaurant of this, along with the dry cleaner’s details and proof of payment (VAT receipt, proof I wasn’t to scamming them, as that’s what it had started to feel like) and asked for a refund on the £15. It feels like I'm demanding a huge payout, but really,I would like the restaurant to admit responsibility and pay for the dry cleaning; I would never have had to pay the £15 if they had cleaned properly, so it all feels so frustrating. I would not recommend a visit to this restaurant, based on the fact that they've shown a complete lack of customer service skills, an unwillingness to take responsibility for negligent cleaning, ignored the Consumer Rights Act 2015, Chapter 4, Section 49(Service to be performed with reasonable care and skill – HA!) and worst of all, refused to pay a meagre sum of £15 to cover the cleaning costs. It's the most appalling customer service I have had the displeasure of experiencing, I would urge anyone who still chooses to eat there to wear plastic or disposable clothing.

Great service, great food, highlyrecommended 👌

Food was lovely, all fresh and cooked to order. The staff were so welcoming and chatty. Really nice experience. Fed 3 people for little over £20. Highly recommend the Banana Fritters with Golden Syrup :)

Granny's has amazing food, service, and atmosphere. The skillets, omelettes and pancakes are the best in town!

Recently moved to the area, and wanted to check out the local pub! I was pleasantly surprised that is it a Portuguese owned restaurant and me and my friend LOVED the food! We had the garlic prawns which just amazing ! And then lamb stew. The meat was really tender and well cooked ! Were we a little disappointed when we found out the little ports of pate wasn’t included in the couvert and were charged an extra couple of pounds ! But overall would really recommend! Thankyou will be back ☺️

Recomend to any real ale lover and superb beer garden with undercover dining

Food always good, service always good. We usually phone pur order then collect. Cash only!

Lovely little hidden Gem Well worth the visit! Highly Recommend you won’t be disappointed The staff are lovely and the food is great and very very reasonably priced Will definitely be back and make this a regularly visit Outdoor & Indoor seating

We visited the outdoor restaurant and pizza bar. The bar area had a really nice holiday vibe where you could sit outside overlooking a stunning showjumping arena. The staff were very friendly who quickly served us and took our food order. We had soft drinks and vegetarian burgers, with chips and homemade slaw. It was delicious and competitively priced. We'll definitely return soon, even if to just drink and take in the atmosphere.
