The best restaurants serving British food in Prebendal East Northamptonshire East Midlands

We were staying locally to visit a close family relative who is in hospital. After a day long visit we returned to our rental tired and hungry and saw there was a pub at the end of the road. For me there are three essential ingredients for a perfect pub - real fire, friendly locals and olde world decor. The Angel offers this and so much more - great food and to cap it all off a brass band playing carols. Aptly named, I thought I’d died and gone to heaven. Just perfect.

Beautifully refurbished, local pub at the end of a pretty walk from Glapthorn. Excellent choice of local beer and a wine list from local wine merchants. Small but good lunch and breakfast menu. We had the baked Camembert with a glass of decent red. First time I’ve ever had a Camembert and had too much bread! Can’t recommend this place enough. Use local or lose local!!

We came to Nassington to collect something my wife had bought online and figured, while we were here, we would try it for a late lunch. I went to check if they allowed dogs (we have 2, beagle and shihtsu) and were still serving; as soon as I walked in the door it felt warm and welcoming. There were quite a few folks in but it was genial rather than crowded, and the music was actually background rather than live gig level (a rarity these days, it would seem), so also seeing the cosy fire and the water bowl for dogs made our decision inevitable. The staff were all very friendly, helpful and efficient, and our order was taken quickly for a shared Camembert to start then beef sirloin and pork belly mains which didn't take long to arrive and, when they did, what a treat! Quite the best Sunday dinners we've had in a long time, with top-notch roasties, beautifully done roast carrots & parsnips and a scrumptious cauliflower cheese. For me, if the food is good enough the only accompaniment should be an optional twinkle of salt & pepper and so it was here; all was cooked to perfection with excellent flavour and any additions would have spoiled it. They only had two ales on the pump and one was GK IPA (I never touch it) but luckily they had a fine local Nene Valley Brewery session blonde which went very well with my meal. The doglets settled in very quickly, which is always a good measure of the ambience, so all in all this was a brilliant spur of the moment choice. We will definitely be back and I would heartily recommend it to anyone who likes a traditional local pub with atmosphere and excellent food - well, who doesn't? :)

my brother told me if I wanted decent pub for food go there I was not disappointed will be going back

We were staying down the road at the Queens head, walked down the village and popped in here for a drink, what a great friendly little pub, Brian the landlord and his mum Linda, made us very welcome, we felt like part of the local community, we enjoyed so much we went back several times during our 2 night stay, and much preferred it to the Queens head. Thank you Brian and Linda for you hospitality. Julie G Shepperton.

Good menu, excellent food, very well stocked bar, great customer service nothing was too much trouble, breakfast was also really good with a varied menu.
