The best restaurants serving Other cuisines food in South Northamptonshire East Midlands

The Eastcote Arms Golf Society (EAGS) gathered at HQ on Monday 16th for their annual Christmas get together following a round of golf at Brampton Heath Golf Club earlier in the day. 23 of us enjoyed dining from the ‘Christmas Menu ’24’ …2 courses £25, 3 courses £30. The food was excellent…well presented and delicious. Chris performed his magic in the kitchen and his team, Euan & Emily, looked after the bar and service most efficiently. Very many thanks for a very pleasant evening. Phil P - EAGS

Friendly and helpful staff Food was really nice

Lovely staff with great food and friendly atmosphere

Can't praise enough the quality of the food and the excellent service provided by the Rose and Crown. A lovely little village pub with a great ambience, attentive and courteous staff.

I hired the Malt Room with private bar to host my 40th Birthday party for 45 guests. The whole process, communication and on the night support was fantastic. It's a beautiful venue that needs very little, if any decorating, is different to all the standard hall hires and the perfect size. Kathryn's communication with me was great, I hadn't hosted a party before so she was so helpful guiding me. On the night, our bar staff Skye was phenomenal, she clearly showed her experience in handling events and party goers and made everything seem easy and kept all the guest well watered. What more could you want!? We used Platters and Boards for catering.

I love the BP but the queuing system is a disaster. They only have one front of house who rushes around albeit with a welcoming smile, clearing/cleaning tables whilst simultaneously trying to seat guests. Impossible task for one person resulting in longer queues even when tables are otherwise empty. With no seating for guests with disabilities while they wait, the extensive timeframes mean it is not disability friendly. I’m sure people would rather find their own table rather than queue out of the door! Come on management - you are better than this and so is the BP!

Whilst I love Cherry Lane garden centre with their friendly staff and good range of plants I won’t be using the cafe again. I went earlier this week with a friend and was happy to sit outside (even though it was a bit chilly) as I’d got my dog with me. It’s nice to find somewhere to eat that has a dog-friendly area. My friend had a chicken & bacon sandwich that came with fries and coleslaw which I think was £9.50 while I had cheesy chips at £4.25. I also asked for a slice of bread & butter to make a chip butty. My friend placed the order and paid, and it was only when we looked at the receipt we realised we’d been charged £3.25 for bread & butter! An entire loaf of bread is only about £1! When the chips arrived they were lukewarm with a minute sprinkle of cheese, and must have been placed under the grill to melt the cheese and been forgotten about as some of the chips were burnt. My friend said her sandwich was OK but nothing memorable.

On the way back north to Codnor we opted to stop at Northampton Services. A decent little service station (and it really isn't that big) that has everything you need for a satisfactory break from motorway tedium. Decent toilet facilities without that weird "inclusive" rubbish at South Mimms as well as all the usual accompaniments you'd expect from a motorway service station, as well as a few you might not. These include a brand called 'Leon' which prides itself on "naturally fast food" and the somewhat more self-explanatorily named 'Fresh Food Cafe.' All in all, it is a seemingly more healthy motorway service station than some of the others you may come across on your travels. As I say, it has its share of unhealthy tat as well, such as McDonalds, and there are also your standard shops (WHSmith) and your traditional overpriced "we've got you over a barrel" petrol station. It also has a postbox on site, which I absolutely love.

We were looking forward to coffee here. But despite the cafe being advertised as open on Mondays, it was very shuttered up and very closed. Shame that the website didn’t mention that, as we were disappointed. Perfectly understandable in the current economic climate, but we would have preferred to know in advance.

Great food and cosy pub. Would definitely recommend for a night away or food after a country walk. We loved the fact the food was home cooked. Great pasta!

Only called for a beer or 2. And will call again

Had partially given up on this branch as it is dirty and unwelcoming and staff poorly motivated. Since Costa opened a new branch in the top of town, this one has appeared to have been deliberately run down. Today's experience was a new one. Went in at 3.20 pm and the sullen member of staff told me it was takeaways only. When asked why, he said they were closing in 20 minutes. The sign on the door said closing at 4pm, which is very early for a town centre location in any case. Left and went to the warm and friendly coffee and cake shop opposite.

They don't allow Dogs. Shame really. Only want a coffee. Food is okay. All ultra processed and full of sugar. Always check the ingredients.

There is a reason that this cafe isn’t rated very high on trip adviser, and it is because of the staff. Miserable doesn’t even cut it. No customer service and more importantly no smiling. We actually felt we were an inconvenience going into the cafe. I felt I should apologise for ordering. Should have gone to Maccy D’s. Also filthy sauce bottles, not been cleaned for several days
