The best restaurants in Obelisk Northampton East Midlands

While staying at the adjacent Premier Inn (very good) we made the mistake of pre-booking breakfasts for four days at the Hungry Horse next door - a big disappointment. The place was very shabby with rotting wooden entrance doors. With one exception, the staff were inattentive. The "continental" buffet menu was missing one or two advertised items each day. Very loud music blasted from the open door to the kitchen. The cooked meal was good. On day two the person who greeted us with her clipboard omitted to take note of our room number; when we left the restaurant she chased after us and (without asking for an explanation) immediately accused us of not having paid for our meals - that was despicable behaviour! Such a poor standard of meal provision spoils the experience for the hotel customer but also damages the reputation of Premier Inn. We have had a number of Premier Inn breaks in various locations and been satisfied with the food service. Sadly, this latest experience makes us cautious about planning future breaks.
