The best restaurants serving British food in South Northamptonshire East Midlands

My nephew asked for a 'pub meal' for his 16th birthday. My partner and I always take him and his sister out on their birthdays and try to make it as special as possible. I searched high and low for a decent pub and came across this hidden little gem. And I was not disappointed. I grew up in a time of smoking in pubs before they all became 'gastro' pubs with fancy food, high prices and rude staff. The White Hart is a throwback to those nostalgic times of my youth that I treasure and the moment I walked into the pub I was sent flying into my childhood to a local eatery my family visited every weekend. Yes, it does have a lingering smell of cigarette smoke, but personally, this heightened the experience for me. I felt at home! The staff was wonderful, the atmosphere was cosy and the menu, while a bit limited for vegetarians, had everything we wanted. To solve the issue with vegetarian options, the chef offered to cook my partner a special vegan cheese vegetarian burger he was experimenting with for a large party a week later. We were very impressed by this service and boy did my boyfriend enjoy his burger. I'm salivating as I remember my burger, full of chicken strips, onion rings and cheese. The lovely barmaid was very chatty and attentive. It was a quiet Thursday night, which is perfect for us because we like calmer establishments, but the barmaid told us it gets very busy at the weekend. I'm pleased for them. It's tucked out the way on the Northampton Road and these types of pubs are a dying breed. It has a car park and the owner has a very friendly dog who my niece adored. And finally, for the amount of food and its incredible quality, the prices are very low. A meal for four with starters, mains and alcohol (for us adults) was less than £100. Very impressed! I haven't had the chance to go back but as soon as we get the opportunity, we'll be eating at the White Hart again!

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.

best jacket potato I've ever had. fresh and lovely prawn filling. went down a treat quick friendly service

Amazing breakfast - generous portions, and high quality ingredients, with great tea and coffee too. The owners were so friendly too, and lovely indoor heated setting if required. We went based on the recommendation of others....and they weren't wrong!

A Cafe is how they describe it - but that downplays what they offer. We have visited several times having been introduced by a "local". The cafe offers soup, dish of the day and, with other options, a choice of quiches. Everything is homemade which means the dishes are absolutely delicious. If you arrive on an afternoon visit - not lunch (but why not have lunch?!!) - then there are a wide choice of homemade cakes to have with your coffee/tea/soft drink. They do not have a drinks licence at present but if you are bringing auntie who likes a glass of white wine, make a booking with them and let them know you'd like to bring a chilled bottle with you. It is unpretentious and a cafe ( no need to dress up) but worth it for the food ! If you are horsey person then there is a dedicated shop just for you but even if you aren't there's a gift shop as well with a wide range of items like small items, men's and women's clothing and even some furniture. Eat well, browse the shop(s) and enjoy the drive through the countryside as I do not think you you would be disappointed.

Stopped here for Sunday lunch there was 3 of us the owner and helper were extremely welcoming and the roast was fantastic with all locally sourced ingredients and rhubarb crumble was the best ive had for a long time

Flying visit for a swift round after looking around for relocation. Proper pub, quirky outdoor area, really nice local beers and friendly staff. Certainly made us welcome so a good first impression! Thank you!

We have had some excellent food in here esp the fish and chips. Its far better quality that some of the more expensive gastro pubs nearby really recommend it

lugar espléndido. Sin duda volvería. El personal es estupendo y el servicio fabuloso. Me pase las palabras de mi tropa.

Great small villages pub , lively at weekends and good atmosphere. Serving food from special guest catering at weekends also coffee, cakes and sandwiches at lunchtimes . Lovely outside areas to chill and big garden for children to run around. Games bar with pool , table skittles and board games. Live music accasionally at weekends.

Heard my local does Breakfasts Thurs - Sat. So i gave it a try. A proper fresh home cooked Breakfast with locally sourced ingredients. Friendly staff in nice surroundings. Perfect way to start the day... Thoroughly recommend..

We had lunch here yesterday, and the food was absolutely delicious! The atmosphere was cozy and inviting. The only minor downsides were that the chairs could be a bit more comfortable, and we had to ask for drink refills a few times. Despite that, we still highly recommend it!

Working in the area. Popped in and paid £8 for sausage and bacon baguette with a coke. Got back to the job and it’s just bacon. Check your orders.

Lovely catch up with the girls tonight! We meet up here as much as we can, as the food, and the service is always spot on. Hillary and Silvie are fabulous!

Pretty ordinary. Nothing stood out. Food wasn't anything to write home about. Sorry. But I won't be going back soon.
