The best restaurants in Barnwell East Northamptonshire East Midlands

This is the second time I have had the pleasure of Justin's amazing catering. The first my 50th and now a fabulous day of the dead party. He always gets it right. All of the preparation is hassle free, food is amazing, there is no clearing up, and Justin himself is full of fresh ideas and has such a sunny disposition. Just what you need at any party. So good two of my friends have already made the most of his culinary talents. Cannnot wait until my next excuse to celebrate.

Really nice breakfast , muffins , eggs mushrooms . Great staff, a lot of staff employed , nice tea . Worth a visit, thank you,

EDIT May 25 The place is under new management, things haven’t improved much. Unfortunately the menu is a bit dated, prawn cocktail, scampi, ham egg chips etc. it’s like a bang average garden centre menu. It’s currently 23 degrees outside and there is soup on the menu, surely this should be seasonal? One thing, the chips are fantastic, chunky & crispy very good! However the burger was overcooked and dry. The staff are all or mostly new, some lack hospitality experience but hopefully just teething problems. The main thing is the menu needs to change with the seasons, I want lighter snacks maybe some bread & olives etc it’s almost summer 2025! I will revisit for drinks, but I’m not spending money on this food. EDIT: This is still a good pub, with a nice atmosphere. Unfortunately the food has been lacking the last few visits. The roast dinner is fairly basic and the Sunday menu really lacks imagination. I recommend for drinks, but there is a lot better food for the same price at other similar locations. FIRST EDIT: Nice country pub with attentive/friendly staff, good range of drinks. The food isn't bad, average to high pricing for the type of venue and location. Overall a nice experience the few times I've visited 👍

We spent a night at The Montagu Arms and it was perfect! Very dog friendly. Lovely service. Open crackling fire in the reception area, so cosy. Gorgeous garden and outdoor seating area. We had a lovely breakfast at the hotel and a really gorgeous dinner at The Monty next door (huge thanks to Brad, Kaiyan and Katie who were so brilliant - very friendly and efficient service, also attentive- noticed when drinks were low etc) food was epic - all came out hot and fresh. Really amazing flavours. Vince on reception was also great - fast check in and always available if we needed something. Location is great too - by the water and on a pretty (but very small - which suited us fine) highstreet with a bakers etc. Would definitely recommend!

We decided to try the new menu at the Wheatsheaf for lunch. Plenty of spaces in car park. Friendly welcome and after getting some drinks at the bar we were shown to our table. Lots of choice from burgers to top class mains. We chose the rack of lamb and duck. Both very well presented and cooked with good selection of vegetables on the plates. Followed by a pannacotta. Service was quick and friendly. Recommended.

First time of ordering from here after moving into new home… NOTHING SHORT OF EPIC! Delivery chap was very polite and the food was on top level. Thank you Barnwell Pizza & Grill. 🙏🏼

My friend and l went for lunch, they have a great choice of hot food from soup, pasties, jacket potatoes etc. Lovely selection of cakes, offering gluten free and vegan. Wonderful coffee and a large selections of tea. You can sit inside on comfy sofas or outside on the decking which overlooks a lake and watch the kingfisher. Staff are very friendly and accommodating and know many customers by first name, nice atmosphere you can bring your dog inside.
