The best restaurants in Whittlewood South Northamptonshire East Midlands

From the moment we took the walk down the corridor we knew that this was an elevated experience. The lighting is lovely , there's a calmness away from the bustle of Whittlebury hall with beautiful music. We were slightly early but were welcomed by name. We were led to stylish chairs to perus the menus. Alongside the meal were appetisers, amuse bouche, pre dessert and petite fours , warm and beautiful breads and homemade butter. EVERYTHING presented was an experience and a delight and the serving staff were all knowledgeable and excited to talk about the menu in detailandd keen to know what we thought. It was clear to see that everyone there were bought into creating customer moments. I cannot compare the experience or food to anything else . It was wonderful and I felt like a V.I.P I look at the Instagram page and see all of the creations and love to see the passion and the thought that goes into what they offer. We were fortunate enough to be here at the beginning of the year and the experience is consistent. Thankyou Team for making my Birthday memorable.

All the staff were very friendly and welcoming. Nice atmosphere inside the bar area, which has a large screen for watching sports. Good selection of draft beers on tap and two different varieties of peanuts. They have a large hall that can be booked as a venue for a party or clubs like line dancing. I’ve been to this place on many occasions and it’s been superb every time. There is even a regular down there that the locals call Cat Man Who. Highly recommended this sports and social club.

It's small and conjusted but it's good that such bar exist in such location in Whittlebury.

It’s a great shame they treated us this way, there was 4 of us, we spent over £60 on food & drinks, yet we were asked to vacate the cafe prior to finishing our 2nd drinks so to give our table to others 🤷‍♂️ If we were sitting there just chatting, I could have partly accepted it, but we weren’t, we had a mixture of enjoyable breakfasts, immediately after eating got a 2nd round of drinks, and not long returned to our table, and they asked us to leave to make room for another party🤷‍♂️ disgusting behaviour, should have got other party to sit across 2 tables, shocking management. Will no longer be using or recommending 👎👎👎

Amazing food for the 5 course banquet. The staff are lovely and really helpful. Service was quick. We will definitely be returning!

First of all when we walked in wasn’t treated well by a blonde woman who made the impression that us being there was a chore, the food was brought out either well done or under cooked no in between !!! My 80 year old mum felt u comfortable and wanted to leave! Was not impressed 🤬

Authentic Carribbean food and great service many people had told me about it for some time, and I now know why. It's no longer a secret

I visited with my mother and my 2 young kids. Kids loved their breakfast baps which seemed to be made with oven bottom muffins which were tasty. I had scrambled eggs on some very hard crunchy sourdough toast with some extra beans and tomato from the add on breakfast menu. My tomato was a quartered salad tomato still fridge cold whereas I would have expected this to be a sliced and cooked / hot tomato. My mum’s poached eggs on sourdough toast was on undercooked toast barely more than bread so wonder if the toaster was turned up when mine was cooked! Didn’t seem to be any salt on the tables just pepper. Cakes were okay but waitress / server didn’t know what one of them was when I asked which I thought was unusual in the current allergy climate. She seemed new and a bit lacking in confidence. Scenery was beautiful and was quite quiet. Think more could be done with the deli but I would visit again.

WOW! What a gem!. This place is beautiful. The food was amazing the staff equally lovely. Tea was piping hot, plenty of sandwiches and sweet treats. I would definitely recommend and I will be returning myself. Theo & Anita.

Superb pub, fantastic atmosphere, a warm welcome and amazing staff. This place is always consistently excellent and my friends and I love to have our get togethers here. We know the food will be good and the beer and wine is delicious.

We had a very lovely overnight stay and dinner, would definitely recommend. The food was very nicely cooked and the service was great

How I wish this garden centre was closer to where we live! Called in for breakfast on our way home from holiday, brilliant breakfast, the sausage was the best I've ever had. The garden centre complex is amazing, loads of shops, a beauty salon, barbershop, shoe shop, aquatic supplies, antique centre..we could've spent all day here! Everywhere appears to be easily accessible for disabled..just a lovely place to visit. Special shout out for the waitress who cleared our table..lovely friendly lady, who made the whole experience even better.

The garden centre this cafe and bistro is attached to has great prices and is always my go-to place for buying bedding plants and other gardening needs. But I've only visited the cafe once and that's down to the bad experience I had when my mother and I visited for lunch. After mooching around the garden centre, we popped in for lunch. New to the area, I was trying out lots of new places to learn what's the best. The ladies at the till taking the orders and making the drinks are all lovely and attentive. The food is also a huge plus - much better quality and prices than the Bell Plantation up the A5 in Towcester. Their cakes are to die for! But the service of the waitstaff is almost comical. In stark contrast to the women at the till, the teenage boys who are waitstaff here (or were when we visited) are appalling. I almost feel sorry for them because it seems like they've had no training. They have no clue where any of the tables are. You see them wandering around aimlessly with plates, calling out like baby birds for their mummas. You have to watch them at all times and listen carefully, calling out when you think you hear your table being called. Growing up, cafes were all like this. They'd yell out a number on your ticket and you'd yell back. But this isn't that type of place so it was an odd experience. My mum refuses to go back as it took half an hour to get our food in the end, and while it was excellent, the service wasn't worth it. I might give it another try - I just hope they've either trained their waitstaff or hired new ones.

This little bakery is a diamond . Fantastic cakes bakes and bread with a great location and super friendly staff. Thoroughly recommend this place . Oh , and the best Eccles cake I’ve ever had.
